Answer: M = 5.98\times 10^{24} kg

Explanation:

We know that force acting on an object due to Earth's gravity on the surface is given by:

mg = G\frac{Mm}{r^2}\\ \Rightarrow g = \frac{GM}{r^2}

where g is the acceleration due to gravity, r would be radius of Earth, M is the mass of Earth and G is the gravitational constant.

It is given that at pole, g = 9.830 m/s² and r = 6371 km = 6371 × 10³ m

\Rightarrow M = \frac{g\times r^2}{G}

M = \frac{9.830 m/s^2 \times (6371 \times 10^3 m )^2}{6.67 \times 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2}}

\Rightarrow M = 5.98\times 10^{24} kg

Hence, Earth's mass is 5.98\times 10^{24} kg

In a neutral atom the number of electrons equals the number of what part of what other part
koban [17]

Protons

Explanation:

In a neutral atom, the number of electrons equals the number of protons in the atom.

  •  Electrons are the negatively charge particles in an atom
  • Protons carry positive charge.
  • Neutrons do not carry any charges.

Protons and neutrons are contained in the nucleus of an atom they determine the mass number of the atom.

In a neutral atom, the number of protons and electrons must be the same.

A charge atom called an ion is one that has lost or gained electrons.

Person is lifting a 250 N dumbbell. The weight is 30 cm from the pivot point of the elbow. What force must be exerted five from
qwelly [4]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

The force, F, is applied at 5 cm from the elbow.

For dynamic equilibrium, the sum of moments about the elbow is zero.
Take moments about the elbow.
(5 cm)*(F N) - (30 cm)*(250 N) = 0
F = (30*250)/5 = 1500 N

Answer: 1500 N
