P.E = mgh

This is the formula for potential energy.

This is where m is mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is height.

All you have to do is multiply all these numbers together.

The gravitational force,F, on a rocket at a distance,r, from the center of the earth isgiven byF=kr2wherek= 1013N·km2. (Newton·k

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

The gravitational force changing velocity is

$\frac{dF}{dt}=-8\frac{N}{s}$

Explanation:

The expression for the gravitational force is

$F=\frac{k}{r^{2}}\\\\k=10x10^{13} N*km^{2}\\\\r=10x10^{4} km\\\\V=0.4 \frac{km}{s}$

Differentiate the above equation

$\frac{dF}{dt}=\frac{k}{r^{2}}\\\frac{dF}{dt}=k*r^{-2}\\\frac{dF}{dt}=-2*k*r^{-3} \frac{dr}{dt}\\\frac{dF}{dt}=\frac{-2k}{r^{3}}\frac{dr}{dt}$

The velocity is the distance in at time so

$V=\frac{dr}{dt}=0.4 \frac{km}{s}$

$\frac{dF}{dt}=\frac{-2*k}{r^{3}}*0.4\\\frac{dF}{dt}=\frac{-8*10x^{13}N*km^{2} }{(10x10^{4}) ^{3}} \\\frac{dF}{dt}=\frac{-8x10^{12} }{1x10^{12}}$

$\frac{dF}{dt}=-8\frac{N}{s}$

Need help with a Physics math problem.

Bess [88]

Neither of those questions makes sense, and I believe that you should not waste your time worrying about them.

#61 gives you a lot of information about a ball, and then asks a question about a glove.

#62 gives a mysterious equation, doesn't tell you what either of the variables represents, and then asks for a quantity without ever telling us how that quantity is related to the equation.

Personally, my response to both questions would be "Insufficient information given".
