What is the gravitational field strength at a distance of 60.0 km above the surface of the earth

Physics

zloy xaker [14]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

g=9.64m/s^2.

Explanation:

Gravitational field strength (in other words, gravitational acceleration) is given as follows:g=GMR2g=R2GM​where G=6.674×10−11m3kg⋅s2G=6.674×10−11kg⋅s2m3​ is the gravitational constant, M=5.972×1024kgM=5.972×1024kg is the mass of the Earth, and R=6.371×106m+0.06×106m=6.431×106mR=6.371×106m+0.06×106m=6.431×106m is the distance from the center of the Earth to the required point above the surface (radius plus 60 km).

Assuming no friction form air, how far will a dropped rock fall in 10 seconds
serious [3.7K]

<u>Given that</u>

time (t) = 10 s ,

         (S) = ?

We know that  S = ut+ 1/2 a.t²  m

                         since free fall and no air friction,

                               a = g = 9.81 m/s² ; initial velocity u= 0

                         S = 0 + [1/2 × 9.81 ×10²]

                       <em>   S = 490.5 m </em>

7) Germanium, element 32 on the Periodic Table, is shown here. If a proton is added to the nucleus of germanium, what outcome(s)
cestrela7 [59]

Addition of a proton to germanium  will convert it to arsenic (element 33) having different properties.

The atomic number of an atom is the number of protons in the nucleus of the atom. The atomic number serves as the identity of an atom. If the atomic number is changed by adding or removing protons, the identity of that atom changes.

Hence, when a proton is added to germanium, the  atom would become arsenic (element 33) and have different properties.

PLEASE HELP WILL MAKE BRAINIEST (GIVING AWAY 20 POINTS) Where on the track is the most potential energy? Position A Position B P
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

Though there is no chart on my screen, I can give you the correct information to solve the question without knowing what it looks like. Assuming that this track has slopes and or ramps of any kind, the place where it would have the most potential energy would be at the highest point of this ramp, or and the highest point on the track. This would also mean that it would fall the farthest. The highest kinetic energy would be at the lowest part of the ramp, after its used the slope to its full ability. But this would also be before it hits flat ground, or starts going up another ramp. This would be the point where it would be going its fastest.

A 0.145 kg baseball is thrown with a velocity of 25.0 m/s. How much work was done on the baseball to bring it from rest to 25.0
sergey [27]

Answer:

45.31 J

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of baseball , m=0.145 kg

Initial velocity, u=0

Final velocity, v=25 m/s

We have to find the work done on the baseball to bring it from rest to 25 m/s

We know that

Work done = Change in kinetic energy

Work done, W=\frac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)

Using the formula

Work done, W=\frac{1}{2}(0.145)((25)^2-0)

Work done=\frac{1}{2}(0.145)(625)

Work done, W=45.31 J

Hence, the work done on the baseball to bring it from rest to 25 m/s

=45.31 J
