Explanation:

It is given that The Moon's center is 3.9x10⁸ m from Earth's center. The moon 1.5x10⁸ km from the Sun's center. We need to find the ratio of the gravitational forces exerted by Earth and the Sun on the Moon.

The gravitational force is given by :

F=\dfrac{Gm_em_m}{r^2}

It means F\propto \dfrac{1}{r^2}

So,

\dfrac{F_1}{F_2}=\dfrac{r_2}{r_1}

r₁ = 3.9x10⁸ km

r₂= 1.5x10⁸ km

So,

\dfrac{F_1}{F_2}=\dfrac{1.5\times 10^8}{3.9\times 10^8}\\\\\dfrac{F_1}{F_2}=\dfrac{5}{13}

Hence, the ratio of the gravitational forces exerted by Earth and the Sun on the Moon is 5:13.

Oduvanchick [21]

Lead-207 can change into Lead-208.

When Lead-207 is bombarded with neutrons, the atom acquires the neutron. Adding a neutron only changes the mass number of the atom. This does not involve change in the identity of the atom. So, Lead-207 can change into Lead-208 without change in its chemical properties.

The recommended adult dose of elixophyllin, a drug used to treat asthma, is 6.00 mg/kg of body mass. calculate the dose in milli
andreev551 [17]

For a 166-lb person, a dose of 452 milligrams is prescribed to treat asthma.

<h3>How would you define asthma?</h3>

Lung damage is a side effect of asthma. Repeated episodes of coughing, dyspnea, chest tightness, and wheezing are also brought on by it. By taking medication and avoiding the triggers that can set off an attack, asthma can be managed. Outdoor allergens, such as pollen from grass, trees, and weeds, are common asthma triggers. Different allergens and irritants might function as triggers for different people. Dust mites, cockroaches, mold, and pet dander are examples of indoor allergies. Air irritants like smoke, chemical fumes, and powerful scents.

Mass = 166 lb×(453.59 g/1 lb)×(1kg/1000g)=75.30 kg

Dose = 75.30 kg ×(6.00 mg/1 kg)=452 mg

Elixophyllin has a 452 mg dose for a 166 lb person with asthma.

A hand lifts a block vertically upward at constant velocity. The work done by gravity on the block ____ if the system consists o
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

If the system consists of the block only, the work done by the gravity is negative.

If the system consists of the block and the earth the work done by the gravity is zero.

Explanation:

If the system consists of the block only, then the system experiences two external forces: one exerted by the hand that lifts the block vertically upward and other exerted by the earth (gravity), which is opposed to the movement of the system, so the work done by gravity is negative.

On the other hand, if the system consists of the block and the earth, then only exists a external force which is the exerted by the hand. So, the force exerted by gravity is zero.
