Answer:

6.37*10^6 m

Explanation:

We know that,

g = GM/R²

values given to us

acceleration due to gravity = g = 9.8 m/s²

Mass of the earth is= 6.4*10^24

G = 6.67*10^{-11}

implementing

9.8 = 6.67*10^-11 * 6*10^24/R^2

9.8 = 40.02 * 10^13/ R^2

R^2 = 4002/98 * 10^12

R^2 = 40.83* 10^12

R= 6.37*10^6 m   (approximately)

What is the formula for volume using density and mass
lawyer [7]

The definition of density is

                                                       Density                  = (mass) / (volume)

Multiply each side by 'volume' :    (density) x (volume) = (mass)

Divide each side by 'density' :                         Volume = (mass) / (density)

Constants A capacitor is connected across an ac source that has voltage amplitude 59 0 V and frequency 77 0 Hz Part C What is th
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

C = 1.77 \times 10^{-4} F

Explanation:

As we know that in AC circuit we have

V = i x_c

here we have

V = 59 V

i = 5.05 A

so we will have

x_c = \frac{59}{5.05}

x_c = 11.68 ohm

also we know that

x_c = \frac{1}{\omega C}

here we will have

11.68 = \frac{1}{(2\pi 77)C}

C = 1.77 \times 10^{-4} F

) The radius of sphere measured repeated values 5.63 m, 5.54 m and 5.53 m. Determine the most
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

v_{ average} = 5.57

Explanation:

The most probable value of a measure is

       v_average = \frac{1}{N} ∑ x_i

where N is the number of measurements

in tes case N = 3

         v_{average} = ⅓ (5.63 +5.54 + 5.53)

         V_{average} = 5,567

The number of significant figures must be equal to the number of figures that have the least in the readings.

          v_{ average} = 5.57
