C. 5

a neutral atom has no electrical charge. protons are positive and electrons are negative, they need to be the same to make it a neutral atom.

A person who weighs 800N on the earth's surface will weigh 200N at what height above the earth
Marina86 [1]

Answer: 6,400 km

Explanation:

The weight of a person is given by:

W=mg

where m is the mass of the person and g is the acceleration due to gravity. While the mass does not depend on the height above the surface, the value of g does, following the formula:

g=\frac{GM}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the Earth's mass

r is the distance of the person from the Earth's center


The problem says that the person weighs 800 N at the Earth's surface, so when r=R (Earth's radius):

800 N= W=mg=m \frac{GM}{R^2} (1)

Now we want to find the height h above the surface at which the weight of the man is 200 N:

200 N = W' = mg' = m \frac{GM}{(R+h)^2} (2)

If we divide eq.(1) by eq.(2), we get

\frac{800 N}{200 N}=\frac{W}{W'}=\frac{(R+h)^2}{R^2}

4=\frac{(R+h)^2}{R^2}

By solving the equation, we find:

4R^2 = (R+h)^2=R^2+2Rh+h^2\\h^2 +2Rh-3R^2 =0

which has two solutions:

h=-3R --> negative solution, we can ignore it

h=R --> this is our solution

Since the Earth's radius is R=6.4\cdot 10^6 m, the person should be at h=R=6.4\cdot 10^6 m=6400 km above Earth's surface.

B) If the actual counterweight fitted to this boom was
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

50 N

4.2 N

Explanation:

i) The force needed to balance the boom is 2400 N.  If the weight of the counterbalance is 2350 N, then the downward force the park attendant must apply is 50 N.

ii) When the boom is resting on the end support, the normal force is:

∑τ = Iα

-W (0.50) + F (3.0) − N (6.0) = 0

-0.50 W + 3.0 F = 6.0 N

N = (-0.50 W + 3.0 F) / 6.0

N = (-0.50 × 2350 + 3.0 × 400) / 6.0

N ≈ 4.2
