<h2>The asteroid is 4.11 x 10¹¹ m far from Sun</h2>

Explanation:

We have gravitational force

                 F=\frac{GMm}{r^2}

           Where G =  6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N m²/kg²

                       M = Mass of body 1

                       M = Mass of body 2

                       r = Distance between them

Here we have

                 M = Mass of Sun = 1.99×10³⁰ kg

                 m = Mass of asteroid = 4.00×10¹⁶ kg

                 F = 3.14×10¹³ N

Substituting

                   F=\frac{GMm}{r^2}\\\\3.14\times 10^{13}=\frac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 1.99\times 10^{30}\times 4\times 10^{16}}{r^2}\\\\r=4.11\times 10^{11}m

The asteroid is 4.11 x 10¹¹ m far from Sun

1. A small package is dropped from the Golden Gate Bridge. What is the velocity of the package
Sidana [21]

The velocity of the package  after it has fallen for 3.0 s is 29.4 m/s

From the question,

A small package is dropped from the Golden Gate Bridge.

This means the initial velocity of the package is 0 m/s.

We are to calculate the velocity of the package  after it has fallen for 3.0 s.

From one of the equations of kinematics for objects falling freely,

We have that,

v = u + gt

Where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

g is the acceleration due to gravity

and t is time

To calculate the velocity of the package  after it has fallen for 3.0 s

That means, we will determine the value of v, at time t = 3.0 s

The parameters are

u = 0 m/s

g = 9.8 m/s²

t = 3.0 s

Putting these values into the equation

v = u + gt

We get

v = 0 + (9.8×3.0)

v = 0 + 29.4

v = 29.4 m/s

Hence, the velocity of the package  after it has fallen for 3.0 s is 29.4 m/s

A 66-kg base runner begins his slide into second base when he is moving at a speed of 3.4 m/s. The coefficient of friction betwe
Helen [10]

Answer:

a ) = 381.48 J

b )=  84.25 cm

Explanation:

Kinetic energy of the runner

= 1/2 m v²

= .5 x 66 x 3.4²

= 381.48 J

The final kinetic energy of the runner is zero .

Loss of mechanical energy

= 381.48 J

This  loss in  mechanical energy is due to action of frictional force .

b )

Let s be the distance of slide

deceleration due to frictional force

= μmg/m

.7 x 66 x 9.8 / 66

a = - 6.86 m s⁻¹

v² = u² - 2 a s

0 = 3.4² - 2x6.86 s

s = 3.4² / 2x6.86

= .8425 m

84.25 cm
