Yes, you are pulling on the Earth, with equal force.
Your weight on Earth is equal to the Earth's weight on you.

I can't think of a way for you to go out and see it or measure it,
but there are two things we learn in Physics that tell us that it
must be true.

#1). Newton's 3rd Law of motion:
For every action, there is an equal, opposite reaction.
If the Earth pulls on me, then I must pull on the Earth with an
equal, opposite force.

#2). Newton's law of universal gravitation:

Gravitational force = (a Constant) · (mass₁) · (mass₂) / (distance)² .

Take a good, long, hard look at this formula for the gravitational force.

It tells the strength of the gravitational force between the Earth and you.
But it doesn't say WHICH object is (mass₁) and which object is (mass₂) !
It doesn't matter ! BOTH objects feel the same gravitational force !

Jeff's body contains about 5.46 L of blood that has a density of 1060 kg/m3. Approximately 45.0% (by mass) of the blood is cells
barxatty [35]

Answer:

a

The mass of blood is m= 5.7876kg

b

The number of blood cells is  N_t=1.04*10^{13}

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

         The volume of blood  is  V_b = 5.46 \ L = \frac{5.46}{1000} = 0.00546m^3

         The density of the blood is  \rho_b = 1060 kg/m^3

         % of blood  that is  cell is  = 45.0%

        % of the blood that is  plasma is  = 55.0%

        density of blood cell is  \rho_d = 1125kg/m^3

        % of cell that are white is  = 1%

        % of cell that is red is  = 99%

        The diameter of the red blood cell is  = 7.5 \mu m = 7.5*10^{-6}m

         The radius of the red blood cell is  = \frac{7.5*10^{-6}}{2} = 3.75*10^{-6}m

Generally the mass is mathematically  represented as

               m = \rho_b * V_b

Substituting value

            m = 1060 * 0.00546

               m= 5.7876kg

Mass of cell is m_c = 45% of m

                         = 0.45 * 5,7876

                         = 2.60442 kg

The volume of cells is V_c = \frac{m_c}{\rho_d}

                                      = \frac{2.60442}{1125}

                                      = 2.315 *10^{-3} m^3

The volume of white blood cell is V_w = 1% of volume of cells

                                                         = \frac{1}{100} * 2.315*10^{-3}

                                                       = 2.315*10^{-5}m^3

The volume of a single cell is V_s = 4 \pi r^3

                                                                        = 4*(3.142) * (3.75*10^{-6})^3

                                                                        = 2.21*10^{-16}m^3

The volume of red blood cells is V_r = V_c - V_w

                                                           =2.315*10^{-3} - 2.315*10^{-5}

                                                           = 2.29*10^{-3}m^3

The number of red blood cell is  = \frac{V_r}{V_s}

                                                     = \frac{2.29 *10^{-3}}{2.21*10^{-16}}

                                                    = 1.037*10^{13}

The Number of white blood cell is   =\frac{V_w}{V_s}

                                                          = \frac{2.315 * 10^{-5}}{2.21*10^{-16}}

                                                          = 1.04*10^{11}

The total number of blood cells is  N_t= 1.037*10^{13} + 1.04*10^{11}

                                                        N_t=1.04*10^{13}

A large grinding wheel in the shape of a solid cylinder of radius 0.330 m is free to rotate on a frictionless, vertical axle. A
Flura [38]

Answer:

The mass of the wheel is 2159.045 kg

Explanation:

Given:

Radius r = 0.330

m

Force F = 290 N

Angular acceleration \alpha  = 0.814 \frac{rad}{s^{2} }

From the formula of torque,

 Γ = I\alpha                                        (1)

 Γ = rF                                       (2)

rF = I \alpha

Find momentum of inertia I from above equation,

I = \frac{rF}{\alpha }

I = \frac{0.330 \times 290}{0.814}

I = 117.56 Kg. m^{2}

Find the momentum inertia of disk,

 I = \frac{1}{2}  Mr^{2}

M = \frac{2I}{r^{2} }

M = \frac{2 \times 117.56}{(0.330)^{2} }

M = 2159.045 Kg

Therefore, the mass of the wheel is 2159.045 kg
