The gravitational force, F, on a rocket at a distance, from the center of the earth is given by F = k / (r^2), where k = 10 ^3 n

ewton*km^2. when the rocket is 10^4 km from the center of the earth, its moving away at .2 km/sec. how fast is the gravitational force changing at that moment? therefore what is the rate of change of the gravitational force in newton/ second?

F = k / (r^2)
dF/dt = -2k / (r^3) dr/dt

When r = 10^4 km and dr/dt = 0.2 km/sec
dF/dt = -2(10)^3 (0.2) / ((10^4)^3) = -400 / 10^7 = -0.00004 N/s

The gravitational force is changing at the rate of -0.00004 N/s

The graph of a line passes through the points (0,-2) and (6,0). what is the equation of the line?
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

y = 1/3x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the equation of a line with two points

Step1: find the slope

m = (y_2 - y_1)/(x_2 - x_1)

( 0 , -2) (6 , 0)

x_1 = 0

y_1 = -2

x_2 = 6

y_2 = 0

Insert the values

m = ( 0 - (-2)/ (6 - 0)

m = ( 0 + 2)/(6 - 0)

m = 2/6

m = (2/2)/(6/2)

m = 1/3

Step 2 : substitute m into the equation of line

y = mx + c

y = intercept y

m = slope

x = intercept x

c = intercept

y = 1/3x + c

Step 3: sub any of the two points

Let's pick ( 6 ,0)

x = 6

y = 0

Insert the values into

y = 1/3x + c

0 = 1/3(6) + c

0 = 1*6/3 + c

0 = 6/3 + c

0 = 2 + c

c = 0 - 2

c = -2

Sub c = -2

y = 1/3x - 2

The equation of the line is

y = 1/3x - 2
