The gravitational force between earth and moon will increase.
by F = GMm/r^2
F is inversely proportional to r^2
when r decrease, F will increase.

<span>The moon would appear much larger in the sky. the moon directly affects the ocean tides. If it were much closer, the ocean would rise and flood coastal areas. If the moon were much farther away from Earth, then the ocean tides would quit and the oceans would stagnate, killing all plant and marine life.

The x component of vector is -27.3 m and the y component is +43.6 m. (a) What is the magnitude of ? (b) What is the angle betwee

lara [203]

Answer:51.44 units

Explanation:

Given

x component of vector is $-27.3\hat{i}$

y component of vector is $43.6\hat{j}$

so position vector is

$r=-27.3\hat{i}+43.6\hat{j}$

Magnitude of vector is

$|r|=\sqrt{27.3^2+43.6^2}$

$|r|=\sqrt{2646.25}$

|r|=51.44 units

Direction

$tan\theta =\frac{43.6}{-27.3}=-1.597$

vector is in 2nd quadrant thus

$180-\theta =57.94$

$\theta =122.06^{\circ}$

A box mass of 24kg is being pulled horizontally on a rough surface by an applied force of 585N. The coefficient of kinetic frict

Elan Coil [88]

the normal force is the force applied opposite to the weight of the was box. So the normal force is equal to the weight of the box = 24 kg *(9.81 m/s2) = 235.44 N

the acceleration of the box be solve using newtons 2nd law of motion:

F = ma

a = F/ m = 585 N/ 24 kg = 24.38 m/s2
