(a) calculate earth's mass given the acceleration due to gravity at the north pole is 9.830 m/s2 and the radius of the earth is
kakasveta [241]

(a) The value of the gravitational acceleration is given by:

g=\frac{GM}{r^2}

where

G=6.67 \cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2} is the gravitational constant

M is the Earth's mass

r=6371 km=6.371 \cdot 10^6 m is the Earth's radius at the pole

If we use the value for g given by the problem, g=9.830 m/s^2, and we rearrange the equation above, we find the value of the Earth's mass:

M=\frac{gr^2}{G}=\frac{(9.830 m/s^2)(6.371 \cdot 10^6 m)^2}{6.67 \cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1}s^{-2}}=5.982 \cdot 10^{24} kg

(b) The value we found for the Earth's mass is 5.982 \cdot 10^{24} kg, and we see that this value is slightly larger than the accepted value of 5.979 \cdot 10^{24} kg.

Where does all of this energy come from
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer: All of our energy comes from the sun, which is our nearest star. The sun sends out huge amounts of energy through its rays every day. We call this energy solar energy or radiant energy. Without the sun, life on earth would not exist, since our planet would be totally frozen.

Which of the following experiments could be used to determine the inertial mass of a block? A. Place the block on a rough horizo
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

D, using a spring scale to exert a force on the block. Measure the acceleration of the block and the applied force

Explanation:

For this you would use the net force equation acceleration=net force * mass however you will want to isolate mass so it would be acceleration/ net force to get mass. Then process of elimination comes to play.

How long does it take for mars to rotate on its axis
Svetllana [295]

Hello There!

It takes the planet Mars around 24 hours, 37 minutes, 23 seconds to rotate on its axis. This is around the same amount of time that it takes our planet to rotate once on its axis.
