To solve this problem, we must know the gravitational force of the planet. The equation would be,

 F=G \frac{ m_{1} m_{2}  }{ r^{2} }

This would calculate the force between two objects with masses m1 and m2 and the gravitational constant, G, is 6.67 x 10^-11 m3 s-2 kg-1 and with r as the distance between the objects.

Thus,

F = (6.67 x 10^-11 m3 s-2 kg-1) * (5.68 x 10^26 kg) * (65 kg) * ((1/6.03 x 10^7 m)^2)

F = 678 kg/s^2 or 678 N

Answer is letter B.

Find the length (in m) of an organ pipe closed at one end that produces a fundamental frequency of 494 Hz when air temperature i
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

0.173 m.

Explanation:

The fundamental frequency of a closed pipe is given as

fc = v/4l .................. Equation 1

Where fc = fundamental frequency of a closed pipe, v = speed of sound  l = length of the pipe.

Making l the subject of the equation,

l = v/4fc ................ Equation 2

also

v = 331.5×0.6T ................. Equation 3

Where T = temperature in °C, T = 18.0 °c

Substitute into equation 3

v = 331.5+0.6(18)

v = 331.5+10.8

v = 342.3 m/s.

Also given: fc = 494 Hz,

Substitute into equation 2

l = 342.3/(4×494)

l = 342.3/1976

l =0.173 m.

Hence the length of the organ pipe = 0.173 m.

A brick in the shape of a cube with sides 10 cm has a density of 2500 kg/m^3. What is its weight? a.) 250 N
Arisa [49]

Answer:

c.) 25 N

Explanation:

 We find the volume of the brick, knowing that the volume of a cube is given by the formula:

l=0,1 metros \\V=l^{3}\\V=(0,1\: \: m)^{3}=0,001\: \: m^{3}

being l the side of the cube, which in this case is 10 cm or 0,1 m. Now we find the mass of the object, knowing the density and the Volume of the cube:

m=V*d\\m=(0,001 \:\:m^{3})(2500 \: \: \frac{Kg}{m^{3}})=2,5 \:\: Kg

We find the weight by multiplying the mass of the object with the gravity constant.

W=m*g=(2.5 \:Kg)*(9,81 \:m/s^{2} )=24,5 N\approx25\: N

The speed at which a light aircraft can take off is 120 km/h. (A) What is the minimum constant acceleration required for the pla
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

A) a = 2.31[m/s^2]; B) t = 14.4 [s]

Explanation:

We can solve this problem using the kinematic equations, but firts we must identify the data:

Vf= final velocity = take off velocity = 120[km/h]

Vi= initial velocity = 0, because the plane starts to move from the rest.

dx= distance to run = 240 [m]

v_{f} ^{2} =v_{i} ^{2}+2*g*dx\\where:\\v_{f}=120[\frac{km}{h} ]*\frac{1hr}{3600sg} * \frac{1000m}{1km} =33.33[m/s]\\\\Replacing\\33.33^{2}=0+2*a*(240)\\ a=\frac{11108.88}{2*240}\\  a=2.31[m/s^2]\\

To find the time we must use another kinematic equation.

v_{f} =v_{i} +a*t\\replacing:\\33.33=0+(2.31*t)\\t=\frac{33.33}{2.31}\\ t=14.4[s]
