Answer:
rm = 38280860.6[m]
Explanation:
We can solve this problem by using Newton's universal gravitation law.
In the attached image we can find a schematic of the locations of the Earth and the moon and that the sum of the distances re plus rm will be equal to the distance given as initial data in the problem rt = 3.84 × 108 m
Now the key to solving this problem is to establish a point of equalisation of both forces, i.e. the point where the Earth pulls the astronaut with the same force as the moon pulls the astronaut.
Mathematically this equals:
When we match these equations the masses cancel out as the universal gravitational constant
To solve this equation we have to replace the first equation of related with the distances.
Now, we have a second-degree equation, the only way to solve it is by using the formula of the quadratic equation.
We work with positive value
rm = 38280860.6[m] = 38280.86[km]
Answer:
- After throwing the snow, velocity of the thrower is 2.33 m/s
- the velocity of the receiver is 0.026 m/s
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
Using conservation of momentum,
Initial thrower has a momentum of mv; v
(69.5 kg + 0.0475 kg) × 2.35 m/s = 163.4366 kg.m/s
Now, When he throws it at 31.5 m/s, these constitutes a momentum of;
(0.0475 kg )(31.5 m/s) = 1.49625 kg.m/s
hence his momentum now is: 163.4366 - 1.49625 = 161.94035 kg.m/s
To get his velocity, we say;
161.94035 = mv
{ he lost weight of the snow ball so, m = 69.5 kg )
161.94035 = 69.5 × v
v = 161.94035 / 69.5
v = 2.33 m/s
Therefore, After throwing the snow, velocity of the thrower is 2.33 m/s
Next is the Receiver;
the receiver will gain momentum of 1.49625 kg.m/s
he has no momentum initially and after he catches the snow ball;
1.49625 kg.m/s = mv
1.49625 kg.m/s = ( 57.5 kg + 0.0475 kg ) × v
1.49625 kg.m/s = 57.5475 kg × v
v = ( 1.49625 kg.m/s ) / 57.5475 kg
v = 0.026 m/s
Therefore, the velocity of the receiver is 0.026 m/s
