Answer:

3.735×10⁻⁶ N

Explanation:

From newton' s law of universal gravitation,

F = Gmm'/r² .............................. Equation 1

Where F = Gravitational force between the person and the refrigerator, m = mass of the person, m' = mass of the refrigerator, r = distance between the person and the refrigerator. G = gravitational universal constant.

Given: m = 70 kg, m' = 200 kg, r = 0.5 m

Constant: G = 6.67×10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg².

F = (6.67×10⁻¹¹×70×200)/0.5²

F = 93380×10⁻¹¹/0.25

F = 373520×10⁻¹¹

F = 3.735×10⁻⁶ N

Hence the force between the person and the refrigerator =  3.735×10⁻⁶ N

The atmosphere of Mercury and Mars are very thin. What effect does the thin atmosphere have on the temperature on the surface of
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

Very hot during the day and very cold at night.

Explanation:

Due to the thin atmosphere, they have very hot climate during the day time and very cold climate at night. This happens because they contain very low amounts of greenhouse gases. These gases retain the heat at night. The atmosphere also prevents excessive light and UV rays from entering. The thin  atmosphere leads to many asteroids and comets hitting the surface of the planet. On earth, these asteroids usually, burn up in the mesosphere layer of the atmosphere. These asteroid collisions cause massive fires. This in turn,  causes the temperature to increase during the day. During the night time, massive fires cannot burn due to the low temperature because of the lack of greenhouse gases.

The change in momentum of an object is equal to the Question 4 options: Force acting on it times its velocity. impulse acting on
lesya [120]

Answer:

impulse acting on it

Explanation:

The impulse is defined as the product between the force applied to an object (F) and the time interval during which the force is applied (\Delta t):

I=F\Delta t

We can prove that this is equal to the change in momentum of the object. In fact, change in momentum is given by:

\Delta p = m \Delta v

where m is the mass and \Delta v is the change in velocity. Multiplying and dividing by \Delta t, we get

\Delta p = m \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} \Delta t

and since \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} is equal to the acceleration, a, we have

\Delta p = ma \Delta t

And since the product (ma) is equal to the force, we have

\Delta p = F \Delta t

which corresponds to the impulse.

Please I need help........
LenKa [72]

Answer:

7.46 J/kg/K

Explanation:

The heat absorbed or lost is:

q = mCΔT

where m is the mass, C is the heat capacity, and ΔT is the change in temperature.

Given q = 15.0 J, m = 0.201 kg, and ΔT = 10.0 °C:

15.0 J = (0.201 kg) C (10.0 °C)

C = 7.46 J/kg/°C

Which is the same as 7.46 J/kg/K.
