Here is the rule for see-saws here on Earth, and there is no reason
to expect that it doesn't work exactly the same anywhere else:
(weight) x (distance from the pivot) <u>on one side</u>
is equal to
(weight) x (distance from the pivot) <u>on the other side</u>.
That's why, when Dad and Tiny Tommy get on the see-saw, Dad sits
closer to the pivot and Tiny Tommy sits farther away from it.
(Dad's weight) x (short length) = (Tiny Tommy's weight) x (longer length).
So now we come to the strange beings on the alien planet.
There are three choices right away that both work:
<u>#1).</u>
(400 N) in the middle-seat, facing (200 N) in the end-seat.
(400) x (1) = (200) x (2)
<u>#2).</u>
(200 N) in the middle-seat, facing (100 N) in the end-seat.
(200) x (1) = (100) x (2)
<u>#3).</u>
On one side: (300 N) in the end-seat (300) x (2) = <u>600</u>
On the other side:
(400 N) in the middle-seat (400) x (1) = 400
and (100 N) in the end-seat (100) x (2) = 200
Total . . . . . . . . . . . . <u>600</u>
These are the only ones to be identified at Harvard . . . . . . .
There may be many others but they haven't been discarvard.
Answer:Let m = mass of asteroid y.Because asteroid y has three times the mass of asteroid z, the mass of asteroid z is m/3.Given:F = 6.2x10⁸ Nd = 2100 km = 2.1x10⁶ mNote thatG = 6.67408x10⁻¹¹ m³/(kg-s²)The gravitational force between the asteroids isF = (G*m*(m/3))/d² = (Gm²)/(3d²)orm² = (3Fd²)/G = [(3*(6.2x10⁸ N)*(2.1x10⁶ m)²]/(6.67408x10⁻¹¹ m³/(kg-s²)) = 1.229x10³² kg²m = 1.1086x10¹⁶ kg = 1.1x10¹⁶ kg (approx)Answer: 1.1x10¹⁶ kg
Explanation:
<span>E=hc/wav. len
E = (6.62 x 10^-34 x 3 x 10^8)/0.0275 x 10^-9
E = 7.22182 x 10^-15 J
To convert to eV divide by 1.6 x 10^-19
E = 7.22182 x 10^-15/1.6 x 10^-19 eV
E =45.36 x 10^3 eV
Th energy, E, of a single x-ray photon in eV is = 45.36keV.
Number of photons, n = total energy/ energy of photon
n = 3.85 x 10^-6/7.22182 x 10^-15
n = 5.33 x 10^8 photons </span>
There are 8 hydrogen atoms
