Answer:

  r = 3.787 10¹¹ m

Explanation:

We can solve this exercise using Newton's second law, where force is the force of universal attraction and centripetal acceleration

    F = ma

    G m M / r² = m a

The centripetal acceleration is given by

    a = v² / r

For the case of an orbit the speed circulates (velocity module is constant), let's use the relationship

    v = d / t

The distance traveled Esla orbits, in a circle the distance is

    d = 2 π r

Time in time to complete the orbit, called period

     v = 2π r / T

Let's replace

    G m M / r² = m a

    G M / r² = (2π r / T)² / r

    G M / r² = 4π² r / T²

    G M T² = 4π² r3

     r = ∛ (G M T² / 4π²)

Let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

     T = 3.27 and (365 d / 1 y) (24 h / 1 day) (3600s / 1h)

     T = 1.03 10⁸ s

Let's calculate

      r = ∛[6.67 10⁻¹¹ 3.03 10³⁰ (1.03 10⁸) 2) / 4π²2]

      r = ∛ (21.44 10³⁵ / 39.478)

      r = ∛(0.0543087 10 36)

      r = 0.3787 10¹² m

      r = 3.787 10¹¹ m

A 06-C charge and a .07-C charge are apart at 3 m apart. What force attracts them?
Burka [1]

Answer:

the force of attraction between the two charges is 4.2 x 10⁹ N.

Explanation:

Given;

the magnitude of first charge, q₁ = 0.06 C

the magnitude of the second charge, q₂ = 0.07 C

distance between the two charges, r = 3 m

The force of attraction between the two charges is calculated as ;

F = \frac{Kq_1q_2}{r^2}

where;

k is Coulomb's constant = 9 x 10⁹ Nm²/C²

F = \frac{Kq_1q_2}{r^2} \\\\F = \frac{(9\times 10^9)(0.06)(0.07)}{3^2} \\\\F = 4.2 \times 10^{6} \ N

Therefore, the force of attraction between the two charges is 4.2 x 10⁹ N.

ANSWER ASAP!!!If a wave machine produces 10 waves in 2 seconds, what is the frequency of the machine in Hertz?
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

5Hz

Explanation:

Frequency = No. of waves per second

10 waves are produced in 2 seconds

in one second 10/2 waves are produced

(ie) 5 waves are produced in 1 second

Therefore the frequency of wave is 5 Hz

A2 kg block is accelerating at the rate of 5 m/s² while being acted on by two forces. One of the forces equals 30 N, 0°. What ar
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

20 [N], in the opposite direction of the first force.

Explanation:

We know that newton's second law stipulates that the sum of forces on a body must be equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

SumF = m*a\\30 + F = 2*5\\F = 30 - (2*5)\\F = - 20 [N]

The negative sign means that the other force acting on the body must be in the opposite direction to the force of 30 [N]
