Hi there

pushing on something that pushes back = action and reaction.

Gravity is non contact. Action at a distance. Hence stones wil fall if dropped.

Find a numerical value for rhoearth, the average density of the earth in kilograms per cubic meter. Use 6378km for the radius of

mylen [45]

Answer:

density = 5520 kg/m^3

Explanation:

given that

radius of earth = 6378 km

G = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ m³/kg.s²

g = 9.80 m/s²

we know,

$g = \dfrac{GM}{r^2}$

mass of earth

$M = \dfrac{gr^2}{G}$

$M = \dfrac{9.8 \times (6378 \times 10^3)^2}{6.67 \times 10^{-11}}$

M = 5.972 x 10²⁴ kg

density = $\dfrac{mass}{volume}$

V = volume of the earth = 4/3πr³

V = 4/3 x 3.14 x (6378 x 10³)³

V = 1.08 x 10²¹ m³

density = $\dfrac{5.972\times 10^{24}}{1.08\times 10^{21}}$

density = 5.52 x 10³ kg/m^3

density = 5520 kg/m^3

In science work is defined as

Artist 52 [7]

According to the Jefferson lab, "The scientific definition of work is: using a force to move an object a distance (when both the force and the motion of the object are in the same direction.)"
