What gravitational force does the moon produce

Physics
1 answer:
saul85 [17]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

1.94\cdot 10^{20} N

Explanation:

The magnitude of the gravitational force between two objects is given by the equation:

F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

m1, m2 are the masses of the two objects

r is the separation between the objects

The gravitational force is always attractive.

In this problem, we have:

m_1 = 5.98\cdot 10^{24}kg is the mass of the Earth

m_2 = 7.34\cdot 10^{22} kg is the mass of the Moon

r=3.88\cdot 10^8 m is the separation between the Earth and the Moon

Therefore, the gravitational force between them is

F=(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})\frac{(5.98\cdot 10^{24})(7.34\cdot 10^{22})}{(3.88\cdot 10^8)^2}=1.94\cdot 10^{20} N

While standing at the top of an 100 m high observatory, you accidentally dropped your phone through the grates (it is now fallin
Arturiano [62]

Using the idea of motion under gravity, it will take 0.5 seconds more before the phone hits the ground.

<h3>What is the distance covered?</h3>

The distance covered is obtained form the equations of kinematics under gravity.

Now;

v = u + gt

Recall that it was dropped from a height hence u = 0 m/s

v = gt

v = 9.8 m/s^2 * 4 s

v = 39.2 m/s

Now;

h = ut + 1/2gt^2

but u = 0 m/s

h = 1/2gt^2

h = 1/2 * 9.8 * (4)^2

h = 78.4 m

The phone  will not hit the ground within this time

For the phone to hit the ground;

h = 1/2gt^2

if h = 100 m

100 = 1/2 * 9.8 * t^2

2 * 100/9.8 =  t^2

t = √2 * 100/9.8

t = 4.5 seconds

It will take about 0.5 seconds more before the phone will hit the ground.
