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
1 answer:
Answer:
c.) 25 N
Explanation:
We find the volume of the brick, knowing that the volume of a cube is given by the formula:
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:
We find the weight by multiplying the mass of the object with the gravity constant.

Answer:
Fc = [ - 4.45 * 10^-8 j ] N
Explanation:
Given:-
- The masses and the position coordinates from ( 0 , 0 ) are:
Sphere A : ma = 80 kg , ( 0 , 0 )
Sphere B : ma = 60 kg , ( 0.25 , 0 )
Sphere C : ma = 0.2 kg , ra = 0.2 m , rb = 0.15
- The gravitational constant G = 6.674×10−11 m3⋅kg−1⋅s−2
Find:-
what is the gravitational force on C due to A and B?
Solution:-
- The gravitational force between spheres is given by:
F = G*m1*m2 / r^2
Where, r : The distance between two bodies (sphere).
- The vector (rac and rbc) denote the position of sphere C from spheres A and B:-
Determine the angle (α) between vectors rac and rab using cosine rule:
Determine the angle (β) between vectors rbc and rab using cosine rule:
- Now determine the scalar gravitational forces due to sphere A and B on C:
Between sphere A and C:
Fac = G*ma*mc / rac^2
Fac = (6.674×10−11)*80*0.2 / 0.2^2
Fac = 2.67*10^-8 N
vector Fac = Fac* [ - cos (α) i + - sin (α) j ]
vector Fac = 2.67*10^-8* [ - cos (36.87°) i + -sin (36.87°) j ]
vector Fac = [ - 2.136 i - 1.602 j ]*10^-8 N
Between sphere B and C:
Fbc = G*mb*mc / rbc^2
Fbc = (6.674×10−11)*60*0.2 / 0.15^2
Fbc = 3.56*10^-8 N
vector Fbc = Fbc* [ cos (β) i - sin (β) j ]
vector Fbc = 3.56*10^-8* [ cos (53.13°) i - sin (53.13°) j ]
vector Fbc = [ 2.136 i - 2.848 j ]*10^-8 N
- The Net gravitational force can now be determined from vector additon of Fac and Fbc:
Fc = vector Fac + vector Fbc
Fc = [ - 2.136 i - 1.602 j ]*10^-8 + [ 2.136 i - 2.848 j ]*10^-8
Fc = [ - 4.45 * 10^-8 j ] N
