ANSWER

\begin{equation*} 4.67*10^{-9}\text{ }N \end{equation*}

EXPLANATION

Parameters given:

Mass of the student, M = 70 kg

Mass of the textbook, m = 1 kg

Distance, r = 1 m

To find the gravitational force acting between the student and the textbook, apply the formula for gravitational force:

F=\frac{GMm}{r^2}

where G = gravitational constant

Therefore, the gravitational force acting between the student and the textbook is:

\begin{gathered} F=\frac{6.67430*10^{-11}*70*1}{1^2} \\  \\ F=4.67*10^{-9}\text{ }N \end{gathered}

That is the answer.

Dan is gliding on his skateboard at 4.0 m/s. He suddenly jumps backward off the skateboard, kicking the skateboard forward at 8.
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

3.6 m/s

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of momentum,

Total momentum before jump = Total momentum after jump

<em>Note: Before Dan jump off the skateboard, they where both moving with the same velocity</em>

u(m+m') = mv+m'v'................. Equation 1

Where m = Dan's mass, m' = mass of the skateboard, u = common velocity before the jump, v = Dan's final velocity, v' = The final velocity of the skateboard.

make v the subject of the equation

v = [u(m+m')-m'v')]/m.............. Equation 2

Given: u = 4.0 m/s, m = 50 kg, m' = 5 kg, v' = 8 m/s

Substitute into equation 2

v = [4(50+5)-(5×8)]/50

v = (220-40)/50

v = 180/50

v = 3.6 m/s

What is most likely to cause someone to fall overboard? balancing the weight of people and gear sitting on a pedestal chair whil
Salsk061 [2.6K]
The answer for this question is standing up in a boat.

Standing up in a boat is most likely to cause someone to fall overboard especially if someone starts to rock the boat or if a wave occurs and the person standing is not prepared of the said situations. You may also consider the causes standing on a slippery surface and slip off as well.
