The Mercury's mass for the given acceleration due to gravity is 0.3152 x 10²⁴ kg.

The ratio of the calculated and accepted value of the Mercury's mass is 0.95.

Mass is the amount of matter present in the object.

The mass of the object is always constant, anywhere it is on the Earth or Moon or any other planet.

Given is the acceleration due to gravity of Mercury planet at North pole is g = 3.698 m/s² and the radius of Mercury planet is 2440 km.

The acceleration due to gravity is related with mass as

g = GM/R²

Substitute the values, we have

3.698 = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ x M/(2440 x1000)³

M = 2.2016 x 10¹³ / 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹

M = 0.3152 x 10²⁴ kg

Thus, the mercury's mass is 0.3152 x 10²⁴ kg.

(b) Accepted value of Mercury's mass is 3.301 x 10²³ kg

Ratio of the value of mass calculated and accepted is

Mcalc/M accep = 0.3152 x 10²⁴ kg / 3.301 x 10²³ kg

= 0.95

Thus, the ratio is 0.95

A horizontal force of 750 N is needed to overcome the force of static friction between a level floor and a 250-kg crate. If g-9.

seraphim [82]

Answer:

0.31

Explanation:

horizontal force, F = 750 N

mass of crate, m = 250 kg

g = 9.8 m/s^2

The friction force becomes applied force = 750 N

According to the laws of friction,

Friction force = μ x Normal reaction of the surface

here, μ be the coefficient of friction

750 = μ x m g

750 = μ x 250 x 9.8

μ = 0.31

Thus, the coefficient of static friction is 0.31.

A stuntwoman is going to attempt a jump across a canyon that is 77 m wide. The ramp on the far side of the canyon is 25 m lower

liq [111]

initial speed of the stuntman is given as

$v = 28 m/s$

angle of inclination is given as

$\theta = 15 degree$

now the components of the velocity is given as

$v_x = 28 cos15 = 27.04 m/s$

$v_y = 28 sin15 = 7.25 m/s$

here it is given that the ramp on the far side of the canyon is 25 m lower than the ramp from which she will leave.

So the displacement in vertical direction is given as

$\delta y = -25 m$

$\delta y = v_y * t + \frac{1}{2} at^2$

$-25 = 7.25 * t - \frac{1}{2}*9.8* t^2$

by solving above equation we have

$t = 3.12 s$

Now in the above interval of time the horizontal distance moved by it is given by

$d_x = v_x * t$

$d_x = 27.04 * 3.12 = 84.4 m$

since the canyon width is 77 m which is less than the horizontal distance covered by the stuntman so here we can say that stuntman will cross the canyon.
