The two forces of gravity are equal

Explanation:

We can answer this question by applying Newton's third law of motion, which states that:

"When an object A exerts a force (called action) on an object B, then object B exerts an equal and opposite force (called reaction) on object A"

In this problem, we can identify the Sun as object A and the Earth as object B. This means that the force of gravity exerted by the Sun on the Earth is the action, while the force of gravity exerted by the Earth on the Sun is the reaction: according to Newton's third law, these two forces are equal and opposite.

Therefore, the two forces of gravity are equal in magnitude, which is given by:

F=\frac{GMm}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the mass of the Sun

m is the mass of the Earth

r is the separation between the Earth and the Sun

A light ray incident on a block of glass makes an incident angle of 50.0° with the normal to the surface. The refracted ray in t
Andru [333]

Answer:

n_{glass} = 1.65

Explanation:

As we know that the angle of incidence is given as

i = 50.0^o

also we have angle of refraction as

r = 27.7^o

now by Snell's law we know that

n_{air} sin i = n_{glass} sin r

1 sin50 = n_{glass} sin 27.7

now we have

n_{glass} = \frac{sin 50}{sin 27.7}

n_{glass} = 1.65

An elevator car has a mass of 750 kg, and its three passengers have a combined mass of 135 kg. If the elevator and its passenger
joja [24]

Answer:

The change in gravitational potential energy is -1.80x10⁵ J.

Explanation:

The change in gravitational potential energy is given by:

\Delta E_{p} = E_{p_{f}} - E_{p_{i}}

\Delta E_{p} = mgh_{f} - mgh_{i}

Where:

"i" is for final and "f" for final

m: is the mass

g: is the gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h: is the height

For the car and the passengers we have:

\Delta E_{p} = m_{T}g(h_{f} - h_{i}) = (750 kg + 135 kg)9.81 m/s^{2}(0 - 20.7 m) = -1.80 \cdot 10^{5} J      

The minus sign is because when the elevator car and the passengers are up they have a bigger gravitational potential energy than when they are in the ground.

Therefore, the change in gravitational potential energy is -1.80x10⁵ J.

I hope it helps you!

Using an unmanned rocket to visit the space station requires 85.2 trillion BTU of energy. The best fuel for the mission will hav
Illusion [34]
We shall convert all of the densities to lbs/gal, so the product of
BTU/lbs and lbs/gal gives us the basis of comparison, which was "ratio of energy to volume".
grams / ml x 1 lbs/454 grams → 1 lbs/ 454 ml
1 lbs/454 ml x 3785.41 ml/gal → 3785.41 lbs/454gal
Conversion of g/ml = 8.34 lbs/gal
Looking at each fuel:

Kerosene:
18,500 x (8.34 x 0.82) = 126,517 BTU/gal

Gasoline:
20,900 x (8.34 x 0.737) = 128,463 BTU/gal

Ethanol:
11,500 x (8.34 x 0.789) = 75,673 BTU/gal

Hydrogen:
61,000 x (8.34 x 0.071) = 36,120 BTU/gal

The best fuel in terms of energy to volume ratio is Gasoline.
Gallons required:
BTU needed / BTU per gallon
= 85.2 x 10⁹ / 128,463
= 6.6 x 10⁵ gallons
