Answer:

v =√ G m M / r

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use Newton's second law

F = m a

where the acceleration is centripetal

a = v² / r

force is the universal force of attraction

F = G m M / r²

we substitute

G m M / r² = m v² / r

v² = G m M / r

v =√ G m M / r

While running, a person dissipates about 0.60 J of mechanical energy per step per kilogram of body mass. If a 52-kg person devel

Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

The person is running at a speed of 2.564 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

mechanical energy dissipated per kilogram per step, E/kg/S = 0.6 J/kg/S

mass of the person, m = 52 kg

power developed by the person, P = 80 W

mechanical energy of the person per step, E = 0.6 J/kg x 52 kg

$E_{step}$ = 31.2 J

mechanical energy for the total step, $E_{total}$ = 31.2 J x S

P = E / t

$P_{avg} = \frac{E_{total}}{t} \\\\P_{avg} = \frac{E_{step}*S}{t}\\\\\frac{P_{avg}}{E_{step}} = \frac{S}{t} \\\\\frac{S}{t} = \frac{80}{31.2} \\\\\frac{S}{t} = 2.564 \ m/s$

Therefore, the person is running at a speed of 2.564 m/s

. How does a simple cell work????

Delvig [45]

A simple cell can be made by connecting two different metals in contact with an electrolyte. A number of cells can be connected in series to make a battery , which has a higher voltage than a single cell. In non-rechargeable cells, eg alkaline cells, a voltage is produced until one of the reactants is used up
