Answer: Yes.

Explanation:

Assuming Earth and Moon are isolated is space, it is possible to have a point where Earth and Moon will pull at an object with equal force.

That point will be closer to the Moon than the Earth because Moon's gravitational field strength is weaker than Earth's gravitational field strength.

A 22.0 kg child slides down a slide that makes a 37.0° angle with the horizontal. (a) What is the magnitude of the normal force
patriot [66]

Answer:

(a) 172.185 N

(b) 53^{\circ}

Solution:

As per the question:

Mass of the child, m = 22.0 kg

Angle, \theta = 37.0^{\circ}

Now,

(a) The magnitude of the normal force exerted by the slide on the child:

F_{N} = mgcos\theta

F_{N} = 22\times 9.8cos37^{\circ} = 172.185\ N

Now,

(b) The angle from the horizontal at which the force is directed is:

90^{\circ} - 37^{\circ} = 53^{\circ}

The energy photon affects which property of light
Triss [41]

Answer:

photoelectric effect

Explanation:

When the energy from photons is absorbed by matter, the matter can emit electrons. This process is called the photoelectric effect. The photoelectric effect is a property of light that is not explained by the theory that light is a wave.

A 0.150-kg cart that is attached to an ideal spring with a force constant (spring constant) of 3.58 N/m undergoes simple harmoni
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

E = 0.01 J

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of the cart, m = 0.15 kg

The force constant of the spring, k = 3.58 N/m

The amplitude of the oscillations, A = 7.5 cm = 0.075 m

We need to find the total mechanical energy of the system. It can be given by the formula as follows :

E=\dfrac{1}{2}kA^2

Put all the values,

E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 3.58\times (0.075)^2\\\\=0.01\ J

So, the value of total mechanical energy is equal to 0.01 J.
