If gravity between the sun and Earth suddenly vanished; describe the expected Earth motion.

Physics
1 answer:
Daniel [21]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

When the gravity between the Sun and the Earth suddenly vanishes, then Earth will keep moving in a straight line in a direction where it was moving at the moment when gravity vanished.

Explanation:

The gravitational force between Sun and Earth is given by

F = G\frac{M_{1}M_{2} }{R^{2}}

Where F is the gravitational force between the Sun and the Earth. M₁ and M₂ are the masses of Sun and Earth and R is the distance between them.

If we assume that the gravity between the sun and Earth suddenly vanishes, then there would not be any force between the Sun and the Earth and the Earth will keep on moving in a straight line. This is endorsed by the Newton's first law that a body in motion remains in motion if no external force is acting on it.

The direction of Earth's motion will be determined by the previous direction of the motion that is the moment when the gravity was vanished.

A baseball bat hits a baseball with a force of 100 newtons. What is the force and its direction exerted by the ball on the bat?
Brut [27]

Answer:

The force exerted by the ball on the bat has a magnitude of 100 N and its direction is exactly opposite to that of the force exerted by the bat on the ball.

Explanation:

Recall that Newton's third law tells us that : "For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction."

Therefore if the bat acts on the ball with a force of 100 N, the ball acts on the bat with a similar magnitude of force (100 N) but direction opposite to the original force.

A sample of copper has a volume of 23.4 cm3 if the density of copper is 8.9 gcm3 what is the coppers mass?
murzikaleks [220]
The answer is:  " 208 g " .
_____________________________________________
Explanation:
__________________________________________
The formula/ equation for density is:
__________________________________________
D = m / V  ;  That is,  "mass divided by volume" ;
 
Density is expressed as:
__________________________________________    
                   "mass per unit volume";  in which the "mass" is expressed in units of "g" ("grams") ;  and the "unit volume" is expressed in units of:
    "cm³ " or "mL"; 
_____________________________________________
           {Note the exact equivalent:  1 cm³ = 1 mL }.
____________________________________________
         →  The formula is:  " D = m / V "  ; 
___________________________________________
   in which:

     "D" refers to the "density" (see above), which is: "8.9 g/cm³ " (given); 

     "m" refers to the "mass" , in units of "g" (grams), which is unknown; and we want to find this value;
                 
     "V" refers to the "volume", in units of "cm³ " ;
               which is:  "23.4 cm³ " (given);
_________________________________________________
                 We want to find the mass, "m" ; so we take the original equation/formula for the density:
_________________________________________________ 
              D  =  m / V ; 
_________________________________________________________
             And we rearrange; to isolate "m" (mass) on ONE side of the    equation; and then we plug in our known/given values;
 to solve for "m" (mass);  in units of "g" (grams) ;
___________________________________________________
    Multiply each side of the equation by "V" ; 
____________________________________________________
             V * { D  =  m / V } ;  to get:
____________________________________________________
      V * D = m ;   ↔   m = V * D ;
___________________________________________________
           Now, we plug in the given values for "V" (volume) and "D" (density) ;     to solve for the mass, "m" ;
______________________________________________________
           m  =  V * D ;
 
           m  =  (23.4 cm³) * (8.9 g / 1 cm³)  = (23.4 * 8.9) g = 208.26 g ;
  
 →  Round to "208 g" (3 significant figures);  
____________________________________
The answer is:  " 208 g " .
