Astrology, that unlikely and vague pseudoscience, makes much of the position of the planets at the moment of oneâs birth. The on

ly known force that a planet could exerts on us is gravitational, so if there is anything to astrology we should expect this force to be significant.
Required:
a. Calculate the gravitational force, in Newtons, exerted on a 4.1 kg baby by a 120 kg father who is a distance of 0.18 m away at the time of its birth.
b. Calculate the force on the baby, in Newtons, due to Jupiter (the largest planet, which has a mass of 1.90Ã10^27 kg if it is at its closest distance to Earth, 6.29Ã10^11 m away.
c. What is the ratio of the force of the father on the baby to the force of Jupiter on the baby?

Answer:

Explanation:

Gravitational force between two objects having mass m₁ and m₂ at a distance R

F = G m₁ m₂ / R²

Force between baby and father F₁ = 6.67x10⁻¹¹ x 4.1 x 120 / .18²

= 1.01 x 10⁻⁶ N

b )

Force between baby and Jupiter

F₂ = 6.67x10⁻¹¹ x 1.9x 10²⁷ x 4.1 / ( 6.29 x 10¹¹ )²

= 1.31 x 10⁻⁶  N

c )

Ratio = 1.01 / 1.31

= .77

8. What current flows through a 1.15 kW electric fire at a potential difference of
Vilka [71]

Answer:

I = 5[amp]

Explanation:

Electrical power is defined as the product of voltage by current.

P=V*I

where:

P = power = 1150 [W]

V = voltage = 230 [V]

I = current [amp]

Now replacing:

1150=230*I\\I=1150/230\\I=5[amp]

A 15 [amp] fuse must be used. Always the fuse must be larger than the operating current, to protect the equipment from very high currents. above 15 [amp]

A bullet with a mass ????b=13.5 g is fired into a block of wood at velocity ????b=249. The block is attached to a spring that ha
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

M = 0.436 kg

Explanation:

As per energy conservation we can say that energy stored in the spring at the position of maximum compression must be equal to the kinetic energy of bullet and block system

so here we have

\frac{1}{2}(m + M)v^2 = \frac{1}{2} kx^2

here we know that

k = 205 N/m

x = 35 cm

\frac{1}{2}(m + M)v^2 = \frac{1}{2}(205)(0.35)^2

now by momentum conservation we know that

mv_o = (m + M)v

v = \frac{m}{m + M} v_o

now plug in all values in it

v = \frac{0.0135}{0.0135 + M}(249)

now from above equation

\frac{1}{2}(0.0135 + M)( \frac{0.0135}{0.0135 + M}(249))^2 = 12.56

\frac{5.65}{0.0135 + M} = 12.56

by solving above equation we have

M = 0.436 kg
