Answer:

Net force = 2.3686 × 10^(20) N

Explanation:

To solve this, we have to find the force of the earth acting on the moon and the force of the sun acting on the moon and find the difference.

Now, from standards;

Mass of earth;M_e = 5.98 × 10^(24) kg

Mass of moon;M_m = 7.36 × 10^(22) kg

Mass of sun;M_s = 1.99 × 10^(30) kg

Distance between the sun and earth;d_se = 1.5 × 10^(11) m

Distance between moon and earth;d_em = 3.84 × 10^(8) m

Distance between sun and moon;d_sm = (1.5 × 10^(11)) - (3.84 × 10^(8)) = 1496.96 × 10^(8) m

Gravitational constant;G = 6.67 × 10^(-11) Nm²/kg²

Now formula for gravitational force between the earth and the moon is;

F_em = (G × M_e × M_m)/(d_em)²

Plugging in relevant values, we have;

F_em = (6.67 × 10^(-11) × 5.98 × 10^(24) × 7.36 × 10^(22))/(3.84 × 10^(8))²

F_em = 1.9909 × 10^(20) N

Similarly, formula for gravitational force between the sun and moon is;

F_sm = (G × M_s × M_m)/(d_sm)²

Plugging in relevant values, we have;

F_se = (6.67 × 10^(-11) × 1.99 × 10^(30) ×

7.36 × 10^(22))/(1496.96 × 10^(8))²

F_se = 4.3595 × 10^(20) N

Thus, net force = F_se - F_em

Net force = (4.3595 × 10^(20) N) - (1.9909 × 10^(20) N) = 2.3686 × 10^(20) N

PROBLEMA DI FISICA:il volume di un attizzatoio da camino in ferro, a temperatura ambiente (20°C), è 12,2 cm cubi. A contatto con
lesantik [10]

Responder:

20.3 ° C

Explicación:

<u>Según la ley de Charles</u>: <em>cuando la presión sobre una muestra de gas seco se mantiene constante, la temperatura y el volumen estarán en proporción directa. </em>

Paso uno:

datos dados

Temperatura T1 = 20 ° C

Temperatura T2 =?

Volumen V1 = 12.2 cm ^ 3

Volumen V2 = 12.4 cm ^ 3

Aplicar la relación temperatura y volumen

\frac {V_{1}}{T_{1}}=\frac {V_{2}}{T_{2}}

sustituyendo tenemos

\frac {12.2}{20}=\frac {12.4}{T_{2}}\\\\

Cruz multiplicar tenemos

T_2=\frac{20*12.4}{12.2} \\\\T_2=\frac{248}{12.2}\\\\T_2=20.3

Temperatura delle braci 20.3°C

What force in Newton is required to accelerate a car starting from rest to 20 m/s in 15 seconds if the mass of the car is 2500 k
Lyrx [107]

We will solve this question using the second law of motion which states that force is directly equal to the product of mass and acceleration.

\sf \: F=ma

Where,

  • F is force
  • m is mass
  • a is acceleration

In our case,

  • F = ?
  • m = 2500 kg
  • a = 20m/s

\tt \: F_{net}  = 2500 \times 20 \\   \tt= 50000

<em>Thus, The force of 50000 Newton is required to accelerate a car of 2500 kg...~</em>
