Find your mass if a scale on earth reads 650 N when you stand on it.

1 answer:

7 0

Weight = (mass) x (gravity)

Acceleration of gravity on Earth = 9.8 m/s²

   Weight on Earth = (mass) x (9.8 m/s²)

Divide each side by (9.8 m/s²): Mass = (weight) / (9.8 m/s²)

    Mass = (650 N) / (9.8 m/s²)

   Mass = 66.33 kg (rounded)

Neutron stars are extremely dense objects that are formed from the remnants of supernova explosions. Many rotate very rapidly. S

Alja [10]

Answer:

16294 rad/s

Explanation:

Given that

M(ns) = 2M(s), where

M(s) = 1.99*10^30 kg, so that

M(ns) = 3.98*10^30 kg

Again, R(ns) = 10 km

Using the law of gravitation, the force between the Neutron star and the sun is..

F = G.M(ns).M(s) / R²(ns), where

G = 6.67*10^-11, gravitational constant

Again, centripetal force of the neutron star is given as

F = M(ns).v² / R(ns)

Recall that v = wR(ns), so that

F = M(s).w².R(ns)

For a circular motion, it's been established that the centripetal force is equal to the gravitational force, hence

F = F

G.M(ns).M(s) / R²(ns) = M(s).w².R(ns)

Making W subject of formula, we have

w = √[{G.M(ns).M(s) / R²(ns)} / {M(s).R(ns)}]

w = √[{G.M(ns)} / {R³(ns)}]

w = √[(6.67*10^-11 * 3.98*10^30) / 10000³]

w = √[2.655*10^20 / 1*10^12]

w = √(2.655*10^8)

w = 16294 rad/s

Considering only the earth's rotation, determine how much later the asteroid would have had to arrive to put the explosion above

tangare [24]

Answer:

5.1 hours

Explanation:

The only fact we need to know about such a question is that when gazing down at the north pole, the earth spins longitudinally at 360 degrees / day in the clockwise direction.

The planet would have to spin an additional 77 ° to strike the asteroid at 25° E. If the earth rotates in 24 hours 360 degrees, then it must it rotates in 5.1 h at 77 degrees.
