Given:
ΔT = 38 - 26 = 12°C, temperature change
Q = 11.3 J, heat input
c = 0.128 J/(g-°C), specific heat of lead

Let m =  the mass of the lead.
Then
Q = m*c*ΔT
(m g)*(0.128 J/(g-°C))*(12 °C) = 11.3 J
1.536m = 11.3
m = 7.357 g

Answer:  7.36 g  (2 sig. figs)

If F1 is the magnitude of the force exerted
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer: 3. F1 = F2

Explanation:

According to <u>Newton's law of Gravitation</u>, the force F exerted <u>between two bodies</u> or objects of masses M and m and separated by a distance r is equal to the product of their masses divided by the square of the distance:  

F=G\frac{Mm}{r^2} (1)

Where Gis the gravitational constant

Now, in the especific case of the Earth and the satellite, where the Earth has a mass M and satellite a mass m, being both separated a distance r, the force exerted  by the Earth on the satellite is:

F1=G\frac{Mm}{r^2}   (2)

And the force  exerted by the satellite on the Earth is:

F2=G\frac{Mm}{r^2}   (3)

As we can see equations (2) and (3) are equal, hence the magnitude of the gravitational force is the same for both:

F1=F2
