Calculate the force of gravity on the 0.60- kg mass if it were 1.3×107 m above Earth's surface (that is, if it were three Earth

radii from Earth's center).

The gravitational force between two objects is given by:
F=G \frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}
where
G is the gravitational constant
m1 and m2 are the masses of the two objects
r is their separation

In this problem, the first object has a mass of m_1=0.60 kg, while the second "object" is the Earth, with mass m_2=5.97 \cdot 10^{24}kg. The distance of the object from the Earth's center is r=1.3 \cdot 10^7 m; if we substitute these numbers into the equation, we find the force of gravity exerted by the Earth on the mass of 0.60 kg:
F=G \frac{m_1m_2}{r^2}=(6.67\cdot 10^{-11}) \frac{(0.60 kg)(5.97 \cdot 10^{24} kg)}{(1.3 \cdot 10^7 m)^2}=  1.41 N

An 8.00 kg mass moving east at 15.4 m/s on a frictionless horizontal surface collides with a 10.0 kg object that is initially at
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

9.3m/s

Explanation:

Based on the law of conservation of momentum

Sum of momentum before collision = sum of momentum after collision

m1u1 +m2u2 = m1v1+m2v2

m1 = 8kg

u1 = 15.4m/s

m2 = 10kg

u2 = 0m/s(at rest)

v1 = 3.9m/s

Required

v2.

Substitute

8(15.4)+10(0) = 8(3.9)+10v2

123.2=31.2+10v2

123.2-31.2 = 10v2

92 = 10v2

v2 = 92/10

v2 = 9.2m/s

Hence the velocity of the 10.0 kg object after the collision is 9.2m/s

What is an atomic theory?
seraphim [82]

Answer: the theory that all matter is made up of tiny indivisible particles (atoms). According to the modern version, the atoms of each element are effectively identical, but differ from those of other elements, and unite to form compounds in fixed proportions.

A gas, behaving ideally, has a pressure P1 and at a volume V1. The pressure of the gas is changed to P2. Using Avogadro’s, Charl
Bond [772]

Answer:

Boyle's Law

\therefore P_1.V_1=P_2.V_2

Explanation:

Given that:

<u><em>initially:</em></u>

pressure of gas, = P_1

volume of gas, = V_1

<em><u>finally:</u></em>

pressure of gas, = P_2

volume of gas, = V_2

<u>To solve for final volume</u> V_2

<em>According to Avogadro’s law the volume of an ideal gas is directly proportional to the no. of moles of the gas under a constant temperature and pressure.</em>

<em>According to the Charles' law, at constant pressure the volume of a given mass of an ideal gas is directly proportional to its temperature.</em>

But here we have a change in the pressure of the Gas so we cannot apply Avogadro’s law and Charles' law.

Here nothing is said about the temperature, so we consider the Boyle's Law which states that <em>at constant temperature the volume of a given mass of an ideal gas is inversely proportional to its pressure.</em>

Mathematically:

P_1\propto \frac{1}{V_1}

\Rightarrow P_1.V_1=k\ \rm(constant)

\therefore P_1.V_1=P_2.V_2

Arisa [49]
We will first convert lb to grams and in³ to milliliters. 
350 lb : 2.205 = 158.75733 kg = 158,757.33 grams
1.3 · 10^4 in³ = 13,000 in³ = 13,000 · 0.016387064 = 213.031 liters 
213.031 liters · 1,000 = 213,031 milliliters
Density = m / V = 158,753.33 g / 213,031 ml = 0.7452 g/ ml
Answer: A block of material will float.
