The diameter of Earth (to two significant figures) is 7900 miles. Calculate its circumference.

Physics
1 answer:
Bess [88]3 years ago

Answer:

The circumference of the Earth is 24818.58 miles

Explanation:

Analysis conceptual : The formula of the circumference is the following:

L= π*D Formula (1)

Where:

L : is the length of the circumference in miles (mi)

π : is the constant

D : is the diameter of the circumference in miles (mi)

Known data

π = 3.1416

D= 7900 miles:  Diameter of the Earth

Problem development

We apply the formula 1 to calculate the circumference of the Earth  (L):

L= π*7900 miles

L= 24818.58 miles

A 225-kg object and a 525-kg object are separated by 3.80 m. (a) Find the magnitude of the net gravitational force exerted by th
pav-90 [236]

Answer:F_{net}=3.383\times 10^{-7}\ N

Explanation:

Given

Mass of first object m_1=225\ kg

Mass of second object m_2=525\ kg

Distance between them d=3.8\ m

m_3=61\ kg object is placed between them

So force exerted by m_1 on m_3

F_{13}=\frac{Gm_1m_3}{1.9^2}

F_{13}=\frac{6.674\times 10^{-11}(225\times 61)}{1.9^2}

F_{13}=2.5374141274×10^{−7}\ N

Force exerted by m_2\ on\ m_3

F_{23}=\frac{Gm_2m_3}{1.9^2}

F_{23}=\frac{6.674\times 10^{-11}(525\times 61)}{1.9^2}

F_{23}=5.920632964\times 10^{-7}\ N

So net force on m_3 is

F_{net}=F_{23}-F_{13}

F_{net}=5.920632964\times 10^{-7}-2.5374141274\times 10^{-7}

F_{net}=3.383\times 10^{-7}\ N

i.e. net force is towards m_2

(b)For net force to be zero on m_3, suppose

So force exerted by m_1 and m_2 must be equal

F_{13}=F_{23}

\Rightarrow \frac{Gm_1m_3}{x^2}=\frac{Gm_2m_3}{(3.8-x)^2}

\Rightarrow \frac{m_1}{x^2}=\frac{m_2}{(3.8-x)^2}

\Rightarrow (\frac{3.8-x}{x})^2=\frac{m_2}{m_1}

\Rightarrow \frac{3.8-x}{x}=\sqrt{\frac{525}{225}}

\Rightarrow 3.8-x=1.52752x

\Rightarrow 3.8=2.52x

\Rightarrow x=1.507\ m
