Answer:

The magnitude of the gravitational force is 4.53 * 10 ^-7 N

Explanation:

Given that the magnitude of the gravitational force is F = GMm/r²

mass M = 850 kg

mass m = 2.0 kg

distance d = 1.0 m , r = 0.5 m

F = GMm/r²

Gravitational Constant G = 6.67 × 10^-11 Newtons kg-2 m2.

F = (6.67 × 10^-11 * 850 * 2)/0.5²

F = 0.00000045356 N

F = 4.53 * 10 ^-7 N

When you walk across the ground and push on it with your feet...
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

The ground pushes back on your feet with equal force

Explanation:

When you walk across the ground and push on it with your feet, the ground pushes back on your feet with an equal and opposite force.

This interpretation and knowledge is gotten from Newton's third law of motion.

It states that "action and reaction force are equal and opposite in nature".

  • The force applied to a body responds with an opposite force in the other direction.
  • Therefore, the reaction force is of equal magnitude but directed in another direction.

The latent heat of fusion of alcohol is 50 kcal/kg and its melting point is -54oC. It has a specific heat of 0.60 in its liquid
sashaice [31]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

To melt the alcohol

Heat needed = M . L  = 2 . 25  = 50 kcal

To warm up the alcohol

Heat needed = M . sp. ht. . ∆t   = 2 . 0.6 . 100  = 120 kcal

Total heat needed = 170 kcal

Assuming that 0.6 kcal/ kg / ˚C  is the specific heat and that the answer is wanted in kcal ( a rather odd unit to be in use here.)
