9.47 \times 10^{-6}\; \text{N}.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Constant of universal gravitation:

G = 6.67 \times 10^{-11} \;\text{m}^{3} \cdot \text{kg}^{-1} \cdot \text{s}^{-2}.

Apply Newton's law of universal gravitation:

F = \dfrac{G \cdot m_1 \cdot m_2}{r^{2}} =\dfrac{6.67 \times 10^{-11}\times 3600 \times 2850}{8.5^{2}} = 9.47 \times 10^{-6} \;\text{N}.

Why isn't direct current used in transformers​
Furkat [3]

Answer:

No, it will not and this has a historical importance. The reason is that transformers work via induction of electrical forces by changes in magnetic fields, so the constat fields produced by dc currents won't work at all

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

y = 138.96 m

Explanation:

The angle subtended by the moon is the mean of the angle of the arc between the two most extreme points of the moon, we can see that the angle is very small, so we can approximate this arc to a straight line and then use the trigonometric relationships

         sin θ = y / L

where L = 15.9 10³ m and θ = 8.74 10⁻³ rad

          y = L sin θ

          y = 15.9 10³ sin (8.74 10⁻³)

         y = 15.9 10³    0.0087399

         y = 138.96 m

What tension would you need to make a middle c (261.6 hz) fundamental mode on a 1 m string (for example, on a harp)? the linear
Allisa [31]
The frequency of middle C on a string is
f = 261.6 Hz.

The given linear density is
ρ = 0.02 g/cm = (0.02 x 10⁻³ kg)/(10⁻² m)
   = 0.002 kg/m

The length of the string is L = 1 m.

Let T =  the tension in the string (N).
The velocity of the standing wave is
v= \sqrt{ \frac{T}{\rho} }

In the fundamental mode, the wavelength, λ, is equal to the length, L.
That is
Because v = fλ, therefore
\sqrt{ \frac{T}{\rho} } =f \lambda = fL \\\\ \frac{T}{\rho} = (fL)^{2} \\\\ T = \rho (fL)^{2}

From given information, obtain
T = (0.002 kg/m)*(261.6 1/s)²*(1 m)²
   = 136.87 N

Answer: 136.9 N (nearest tenth)

While sitting in a swivel chair, you push against the floor with your heel to make the chair spin. The 6.7 N frictional force is
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

I = 1.4kgm²

Explanation:

The rotational motion is caused by the frictional force, which generates a torque on the system. As there is no other force that creates a torque, this can be expressed in the equation of rotational motion below:

\tau_f =I\alpha\\\\

And \tau_f=rf, where r is the distance from the point of application and the rotation axis, and f is the magnitude of the frictional force. This is because the frictional force is applied in the direction that causes the greatest angular acceleration (this is, 90°) and rf\sin90\°=rf. Then, we have that:

rf=I\alpha\\\\\implies I=\frac{rf}{\alpha}\\\\

Plugging in the given values, we obtain:

I=\frac{(0.39m)(6.7N)}{1.8rad/s^{2} } =1.4kgm^{2}

In words, the total moment of inertia is equal to 1.4kgm².
