Newton's Law of Gravitation states that two bodies with masses m1 and m2 attract each other with a force F, where r is the dista

nce between the bodies and G is the gravitational constant.
F = G m1*m2/r^2
Use Newton's Law of Gravitation to compute the work W required to propel a 800 kg satellite out of the earth's gravitational field. You may assume that the earth's mass is 5.98 x 10^24 kg and is concentrated at its center. Take the radius of the earth to be 6.37 x 10^6 m and G = 6.67 x 10^-11 Nm^2/kg^2. (Round your answer to three significant digits.)

Answer:

W = - 5.01 10¹⁰ J

Explanation:

Work is defined by the expression

      W = ∫ F.dr

Where the blacks indicate vectors, in the case the force is radial and the distance is also radial, whereby the scalar producer is reduced to an ordinary product

      W = ∫ F dr

      W = G m₁m₂ ∫ 1 /r² dr

     W = G m₁ m₂2(-1 / r)

We evaluate between the lower limits r = Re and upper r = ∞

     W = G m₁m₂ (-1 / Re + 1 / ∞)

     W = - G m₁ m₂ / Re

Let's calculate

    W = - 6.67 10⁻¹¹ 800 5.98 10²⁴ / 6.37 10⁶

    W = - 5.01 10¹⁰ J

What is the kinetic energy of an object that has a mass of 50.0 kg and a velocity of 18 m/s? A.450 J B.900 J C.8,100 J D.16,000
Svet_ta [14]
KE = (1/2)·(mass)·(speed)²

KE = (1/2)·(50 kg)·(18 m/s)²

KE = (25 kg)·(324 m²/s²)

KE = 8,100 kg-m²/s²

KE = 8,100 Joules

Consider this situation: A baseball player dives head-first
siniylev [52]
Of the forces listed I think the force of him diving and sliding across the infield acted on the player.

I think so because the slowing down was a result of an action, and I don’t think that should count as An action when it is the result of an action. However, the act of diving head-first into second base and sliding across the infield are independent actions and will cause friction, which will act upon the player.
