Answer:
(3) The period of the satellite is independent of its mass, an increase in the mass of the satellite will not affect its period around the Earth.
(4) he gravitational force between the Sun and Neptune is 6.75 x 10²⁰ N
Explanation:
(3) The period of a satellite is given as;
where;
T is the period of the satellite
M is mass of Earth
r is the radius of the orbit
Thus, the period of the satellite is independent of its mass, an increase in the mass of the satellite will not affect its period around the Earth.
(4)
Given;
mass of the ball, m₁ = 1.99 x 10⁴⁰ kg
mass of Neptune, m₂ = 1.03 x 10²⁶ kg
mass of Sun, m₃ = 1.99 x 10³⁰ kg
distance between the Sun and Neptune, r = 4.5 x 10¹² m
The gravitational force between the Sun and Neptune is calculated as;
The weight of the meterstick is:
and this weight is applied at the center of mass of the meterstick, so at x=0.50 m, therefore at a distance
from the pivot.
The torque generated by the weight of the meterstick around the pivot is:
To keep the system in equilibrium, the mass of 0.50 kg must generate an equal torque with opposite direction of rotation, so it must be located at a distance d2 somewhere between x=0 and x=0.40 m. The magnitude of the torque should be the same, 0.20 Nm, and so we have:
from which we find the value of d2:
So, the mass should be put at x=-0.04 m from the pivot, therefore at the x=36 cm mark.
Answer:
from
force =mass x acceleration
mass = force/acceleration
m = f/a
m = 7.5/15
m=0.5kg
A person's weight will change if they move from Earth to the moon.
