Calculate the force of gravity on the 0.60-kg mass if it were 1.3×107 m above Earth's surface (that is, if it were three Earth r

adii from Earth's center).

The force of gravity between two objects is given by:
F=G \frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}
where
G is the gravitational constant
m1 and m2 are the masses of the two objects
r is their separation

In this problem, the mass of the object is m_1=0.60 kg, while the Earth's mass is m_2=5.97 \cdot 10^{24} kg. Their separation is r=1.3 \cdot 10^7 m, therefore the gravitational force exerted on the object is
F=(6.67 \cdot 10^{-11}m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2}) \frac{(0.60 kg)(5.97 \cdot 10^{24} kg)}{(1.3 \cdot 10^7 m)^2}=1.4 N

Why can light travel through outer space, but sound cannot?
WINSTONCH [101]
Usually, sound needs a medium to travel through, like a vacuum for example. 

Light does not need a medium to travel, and since air is considered a medium, light is not dependent on that. 

On the other hand, sound needs a medium to travel through, and outer space doesn't contain space, therefore, no sound.

bothersome feature of many physical measurements is the presence of a background signal (commonly called "noise"). In Part 2.2.4
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

Incomplete question: "A signal of 20.7 mV is measured at a distance of 29 mm and 15.8 mV is measured at 32.5 mm. Correct the data for background and normalize the data to the maximum value. What is the normalized corrected value at 32.5 mm?"

The normalized corrected value at 32.5 mm is 0.1638

Explanation:

The corrected light measurement at 29 mm is equal to:

20.7 - 5.1 = 15.6 mV

The corrected light measurement at 32.5 mm is equal to:

15.6 - 5.1 = 10.5 mV

To normalize the data to its maximum value means that the maximum value must be calculated and the data must be scaled using that value, as in this case the maximum value is 15.6 mm, then the normalized corrected value at 32.5 mm is equal to:

10.5 * 15.6 = 163.8 = 0.1638
