The earth and the moon are attracted to each other by gravitational force. Does the earth attract the moon with a force that is

greater or smaller or the same as the force with which the moon attracts the earth? Why?

Answer:

Gravitational attraction is caused by the mass of an object. Since Earth is far more massive than the Moon, the gravitational force exerted on the Moon is far greater than that of the Moon on the Earth. An example of the difference: while the Moon causes tides on the Earth, the Earth has the Moon locked so that the same face (minus some wobbling) is always visible from the Earth

8. A car moving at 35 m/s has 675 joules of KE. What is the mass of the car?
andreyandreev [35.5K]
Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a body in motion while potential energy is the energy of a body at rest.
Kinetic energy is given by E=1/2MV² where M is the mass of the body while V is the velocity of the body. 
To get mass we can use the formula M= 2 Ek/V² (Making M the subject)
hence mass  = (2 ×675)÷35²
                     = 1.102 kg

What can be concluded about the atom from knowing that oxygen-18 has an atomic number of 8? A) An oxygen atom that includes 8 ba
anyanavicka [17]
B)

If it is known that the atomic number is 8, we know that the electrons are also 8. Since the atomic mass (O18) is 18, the neutrons are 18-8=10. Option B is the correct answer. 

Hope I helped :)

As shown in the diagram, two forces act on an object. The forces have magnitudes F1 = 5.7 N and F2 = 1.9 N. What third force wil
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

Second option 6.3 N at 162° counterclockwise from  

F1->

Explanation:

Observe the attached image. We must calculate the sum of all the forces in the direction x and in the direction y and equal the sum of the forces to 0.

For the address x we have:

-F_3sin(b) + F_1 = 0

For the address and we have:

-F_3cos(b) + F_2 = 0

The forces F_1 and F_2 are known

F_1 = 5.7\ N\\\\F_2 = 1.9\ N

We have 2 unknowns (F_3 and b) and we have 2 equations.

Now we clear F_3 from the second equation and introduce it into the first equation.

F_3 = \frac{F_2}{cos (b)}

Then

-\frac{F_2}{cos (b)}sin(b)+F_1 = 0\\\\F_1 = \frac{F_2}{cos (b)}sin(b)\\\\F_1 = F_2tan(b)\\\\tan(b) = \frac{F_1}{F_2}\\\\tan(b) = \frac{5.7}{1.9}\\\\tan^{-1}(\frac{5.7}{1.9}) = b\\\\b= 72\°\\\\m = b +90\\\\\m= 162\°

Then we find the value of F_3

F_3 = \frac{F_1}{sin(b)}\\\\F_3 =\frac{5.7}{sin(72\°)}\\\\F_3 = 6.01 N

Finally the answer is 6.3 N at 162° counterclockwise from  

F1->
