<span>The magnitude of the gravitational force between two bodies is the product of their masses divided by the square of the distance between them. So we have F = M1*M2 / r^2. M1 = 7.503 * 10e24 and M2 = 2.703 * 10e22 and r= 2.803 * 10e8; r^2 = 5.606 *10e16. So we have 7.503 *2.703 *10^(24+22) = 20.280 * 10^(46). Then we divide our answer by 5.606 * 10e16 which is the distance ; then we have 3.6175 * 10 e (46- 16) = 3.6175 * 10e30. To find the acceleration we use Newton's second law F = ma. F is 3.6175 * 10e30 and M is 7.503 * 10e24 so a = F/M and then we have 3.6175/7.503 * 10e (30-24) = 0.48 * 10e6. Similarly for moon, we have a = 3.6715/2.703 * 10e(30-22). = 1.358 * 10e8</span>

At what point in its motion is the KE of a pendulum bob a maximum? 1. The KE does not change. 2. at the lowest point 3. at the h
Andrew [12]

Answer:

2. at the lowest point

Explanation:

The motion of the pendulum is a continuous conversion between kinetic energy (KE) and gravitational potential energy (GPE). This is because the mechanical energy of the pendulum, which is sum of KE and GPE, is constant:

E = KE + GPE = const.

Therefore, when KE is maximum, GPE is minimum, and viceversa.

So, the point of the motion where the KE is maximum is where the GPE is minimum: and since the GPE is directly proportional to the heigth of the bob:

GPE=mgh

we see that GPE is minimum when the bob is at the lowest point,so the correct answer is

2. at the lowest point

What does the galaxy made of ?​
ICE Princess25 [194]
Galaxies are sprawling systems of dust, gas, dark matter, and anywhere from a million to a trillion stars that are held together by gravity. Nearly all large galaxies are thought to also contain supermassive black holes at their centers.

What is the difference between an object’s speed and its acceleration? NO LINKS
Arisa [49]

Answer: Hello! An objects speed is constant and has the units meters per second (m/s); thus, it does not change overtime. Acceleration is a rate of change where the speed does either increase or decrease overtime from its inital value; its units are meters per second second (m/s/s). I hope that helps!

Find acceleration given the following:
Lorico [155]

Answer:

Explanation:df=378

Di=0

Vi=0

T=6s

Formula

Df=Di+Vit+1/2(at)2

378=0+0+6+1/2×a×t2

378=6+1/2×a×36

378=6+18a

18a=378+6=384

a=385/18=21.33(cm/s)/s
