The mutual forces of gravity between the Earth and an object on or near
its surface are (<em>mass of the object</em>) x (<em>acceleration of gravity on Earth</em>). 
These two forces are equal, and we call their strength the "weight" of
the object.  It's the number shown on the scale as long as nobody has
their thumb on the scale.  In this problem, the force is 45N .  (That's
about 10.12 pounds.)

The acceleration of gravity on Earth is about  9.8 meters per second² .

So    45N = (mass in kilograms) x (9.8 meters per second²)

Divide each side by  9.8 :      Mass = 45/9.8 = <u>4.59 kilograms</u>  (rounded)

Determine the change in electric potential energy of a system of two charged objects when a -2.1-C charged object and a -5.0-C c
elena55 [62]

Answer:

Change in electric potential energy ∆E = 365.72 kJ

Explanation:

Electric potential energy can be defined mathematically as:

E = kq1q2/r ....1

k = coulomb's constant = 9.0×10^9 N m^2/C^2

q1 = charge 1 = -2.1C

q2 = charge 2 = -5.0C

∆r = change in distance between the charges

r1 = 420km = 420000m

r2 = 160km = 160000m

From equation 1

∆E = kq1q2 (1/r2 -1/r1) ......2

Substituting the given values

∆E = 9.0×10^9 × -2.1 ×-5.0(1/160000 - 1/420000)

∆E = 94.5 × 10^9 (3.87 × 10^-6) J

∆E = 365.72 × 10^3 J

∆E = 365.72 kJ

If you ran 15 km/hr for 2.5 hours, how much distance would you cover?
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer: 37.5 km

Explanation:

The question is that

If you ran 15 km/hr for 2.5 hours, how much distance would you cover ?

Where

Speed = 15 km/ hr

Time = 2.5 hours

Using the formula for speed.

Speed = distance/time

Substitute speed and time into the formula

15 = distance/ 2.5

Make distance the subject of formula by cross multiplying.

Distance = 15 × 2.5

Distance = 37.5 km.
