The gravitation force with which the earth is being pulled can be determined by applying Newton's law of universal gravitation.

<h3>What is gravitation force?</h3>

According Newton's law of universal gravitation, the force exerted between two objects in the universe is directly proportional to the product of masses of the two objects and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two objects.

Mathematically, the formula for gravitation force is given as;

F = GmM/R²

where;

  • m is the mass of the object
  • M is mass of earth
  • R is the distance of the object from earth
  • G is universal gravitation constant

If the mass of the object is know and the distance between earth  and the object is also known, the force with which the earth is being pulled can be calculated by applying Newton's law of universal gravitation as shown in the above equation.

Thus, the force with which the earth is being pulled can calculated as well.

A balsa wood raft is 1.50 m long, 1.00 m wide, and 0.120 m high. the density of balsa is 380 kg/m^3. what is the mass of the raf
topjm [15]

Answer:

the mass of the raft is 68.4 kg

Explanation:

Since Mass is defined as Volume times Density, start by calculating the volume of the raft:

Volume = length x width x high = 1.5 m x 1.0 m x 0.12 m = 0.18 m^3

and now multiply it times the given density in order to find its mass:

Mass = Volume x Density = 0.18 m^3 x 380 kg/m^3 = 68.4 kg.

Notice that the m^3 units cancel out (they are in numerator and in denominator) leaving just the kg (a unit of mass) in the answer.

Therefore, the mass of the raft is 68.4 kg

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

Explanation:

for earth -sun system

E = σ T⁴ ,  E is radiation emitted by sun at temperature T

E = 4π R₁²  x solar constant on earth , R₁ is distance between earth and sun.

for marsh -sun system

E = σ T⁴ ,  E is radiation emitted by sun at temperature T

E = 4π R₂²  x solar constant on Mars , R₂ is distance between earth and sun.

from two equation ,

4π R₂²  x solar constant on Mars = 4π R₁²  x solar constant on earth

solar constant on Mars = (R₁ / R₂ )² x solar constant on earth

A person walks 2 miles every day to work, leaving her front porch at 7:00 A.M. and arriving at work at 7:30 A.M. ON the way home
Nataly [62]

Answer:

The displacement is zero miles

Explanation:

The displacement of an object that moves from point A to point B is defined as

d =B-A

Where d is the displacement of the object. The displacement does not depend on the trajectory of the object. It only depends on the linear distance between the end point and the starting point.

In this case we know that the person walks from home to work and then walks from work to home. Therefore, the total displacement is the linear distance between the point where its journey begins and the point where the route ends.

The tour begins on the front porch of your house and ends on the front porch of your house (when you return from work). If we call A to the front porch of the house then the displacement is:

d = A-A = 0

The displacement is zero miles, since the person finishes the journey just where it started (front porch)
