The gravitational field is the Force divided by the mass

Call g the gravitational fiel, F the force exerted by the earth and m the mass of the telescope.

g = F / m


g=9.1x10^4 N / 1.1 x 10^4 kg = 8.27 N/kg

Note that the unit N/kg is equivalent to m/s^2

A balloon is expanded to the same volume as that of a human head. Do an order-of-magnitude estimate of the volume of this balloo
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

Volume of balloon =  1000 cm^3

Explanation:

 The head of a normal person can be assumed as a sphere with radius 10 cm.

 Volume of sphere =\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3, where r is the radius.

 We have approximate radius = 10 cm.

  Approximate volume of head =\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3=\frac{4}{3} *\pi* 10^3=4188cm^3

 In the given options the closest value to the approximate volume is 1000 cm^3.

 So, volume of head = Volume of balloon =  1000 cm^3

. How does the area of a rectangle relate to the lengths of each side?
iragen [17]
Area is 2-dimensional which means it has a length and a width area is measured in square units such as square inches, square feet or square meters. To find the area of a rectangle multiply the length by the width.

a vector is 253 m long and points in a 55.8 degree direction, what’s the y and x- component of the vector?
BartSMP [9]

Well we know the hypotenuse of the triangle which is 253 m. And we know the angle of the triangle which is 55.8 degrees. So we want to find y. And to find y we use sin. And sin is a ratio, the ratio of the opposite leg, and hypotenuse. So sin(55.8) = y/253. Now we solve for y by multiplying both sides by 253. And finally we get 209.25 as the length of the y component.
