Calculate the total force on the Earth due to Venus, Jupiter, and Saturn, assuming all four planets are in a line. The masses ar

e Mv=0.815ME, MJ=318ME, Msat=95.1ME, Msun=1.99x10^30kg, ME=5.98x10^24kg and the mean distances of the four planets from the Sun are 108, 150, 778, and 1430 million km. Apparently the answer is 9.56x10^17 N but I'm not sure how to get to that .-.,

Answer: Total Force = 9.56*10^{17}

Explanation:

Line points are:  Sun - Venus - Earth - Jupiter - Saturn

Newton's law of universal gravitation states that every particle attracts every other particle in the universe with a force that is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers. This means:

F=G\frac{m_{1} m_{2}}{r^{2} }

Where,

G is the gravitational constant,

m1 and m2 are the masses of the objects,

and r is the distance between the centers of their masses.

So, if G value is 6.674*10^{-11}  [\frac{m^{3}}{kg*s^{2}}], then we replace the equation with the corresponding values:

F=6.674*10^{-11} (-\frac{0.815ME^{2}}{(4.2*10^{10})^{2}} + \frac{318ME^{2}}{(6.28*10^{11})^{2}} + \frac{95.1ME^{2}}{(1.28*10^{12})^{2}})

To get the distances we subtract the distances between the sun and earth and the distances between the other planets and the sun.

You need to consider the following:
Me (mass of Earth) = 5.98 x 10^24 kg 
<span>Ms (mass of Sun) = 1.99 x 10^30 kg </span>
<span>G = 6.67 x 10^-11 N </span>
<span>
Formula:
 F = G * M1M2/r^2 
</span><span>The ratio FT/F = 4.02x10^-4 / 14.8
 = 2.72x10^-5 
</span><span>
Since,
1/2.72x10^-5 = 36800
The fraction ratio is  1/36800
</span>= <span>9.56x10^17 N</span>

Bingel [31]
The solution for this problem is:
Let u denote speed. 

Equating momentum before and after collision: 
= 0.060 * 40 = (1.5 + 0.060) u 
= 2.4 = 1.56 u
= 2.4 / 1.56 = 1.56 u / 1.56
= 1.6 m / s is the answer for this question. This is the speed after the collision.

Does parallax affect the precision of a measurement that you make
Paul [167]
Yes, parallax affects the precision of a measurement that you make. It introduces an error in the order of the parallax. It will cause the measurement to be different from the real answer. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

A convex mirror, like the passenger-side rearview mirror on a car, has a focal length of -3.0 m . An object is 6.0 m from the mi
Artist 52 [7]

A) -2.0 m

Look at the ray diagram attached in the picture, where:

p identifies the location of the object

q identifies the location of the image

F identifies the focus of the mirror

Each tick represents 1 m

We have

p = 6.0 m is the distance of the object from the mirror

f = -3.0 m is the focal length

From the ray diagram, we see that q has a distance of 2.0 m from the mirror, and it's on the other side of the mirror compared to the object, so

q = -2.0 m

This can also be verified by using the mirror equation:

\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{p}=\frac{1}{-3.0 m}-\frac{1}{6.0 m}=-\frac{3}{6.0 cm}\\q = \frac{-6.0 cm}{3}=-2.0 cm

B) Upright and virtual

As we see from the picture, the image is upright, since it has same orientation as the object.

Also, we notice that the image is on the other side of the mirror, compared to the object. For a mirror,

- An image is said to be real if it is on the same side of the object

- An image is said to be virtual if it is on the opposite side of the mirror

Therefore, this means that the image is virtual.
