What equal amounts of positive charge would have to be placed on the Earth and on the Moon to neutralize their gravitational att

raction? Do you need to know the Moon’s distance to solve this problem? Why or why not? (b) How many metric tons of hydrogen would be needed to provide the positive charge calculated in part (a)? The molar mass of hydrogen is 1.008 g/mol.

Answer:

Fg = G M m / R^2       gravitational attraction

Fe = k Q^2 / R^2       electric repulsion

G M m = k Q^2

Q = (G M m / k)^1/2

Since m = .0123 M

Q = (.0123 G / k)^1/2 * M

Q = (.0123 * 6.67 * 10E-11 / 9 * 10E9)^1/2 * 5.98 * 10E24

Q = 5.71 * 10E13 C       charge required on each body

n = 5.71 * 10E13 / 1.6 * 10E-19 = 3.57 * 10E32 atoms

N = 3.57 * 10E32 / 6.02 * 10E23  = 5.93 * 10E8 g-mol = 5.93 * 10E*5 kg-mol

Since 1 metric ton = 1000 kg

One would need 593 metric tons of hydrogen

A particle's position along the x-axis is described by. x(t)= At+Bt^2where t is In seconds: x is in meters: and the constants A
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer

given,

position of particle

x(t)= A t + B t²

A = -3.5 m/s

B = 3.9 m/s²

t = 3 s

a)  x(t)= -3.5 t + 3.9 t²

   velocity of the particle is equal to the differentiation of position w.r.t. time.

\dfrac{dx}{dt}=\dfrac{d}{dt}(-3.5t + 3.9t^2)

v= -3.5 + 7.8 t------(1)

velocity of the particle at t = 3 s

  v = -3.5 + 7.8 x 3

 v = 19.9 m/s

b) velocity of the particle at origin

  time at which particle is at origin

  x(t)= -3.5 t + 3.9 t²

   0 = t (-3.5  + 3.9 t )

   t = 0, t=\dfrac{3.5}{3.9}

   t = 0 , 0.897 s

speed of the particle at t = 0.897 s

from equation (1)

 v = -3.9 + 7.8 t

 v = -3.9 + 7.8 x 0.897

  v = 3.1 m/s

Andrew kicks a ball along a straight path. The ball rolls straight forward for 13.2 meters. Then Andrew kicks the ball straight
tresset_1 [31]

Answer: 22.7 meters

Explanation: The distance traveled is how much the ball has rolled in total, this means the lenght of the path that it has followed from begining to end.

Since it first travels 13.2 meters and then 9.5 meters, if we sum this quantities:

13.2 + 9.5 = 22.7 meters

So 22.7 is the distance that the ball has traveled.

What is a type of force that results from turning a corner on a bicycle? ​
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

This force is centripetal force. it is the force that will hold the rider in the circular path and prevent him from skidding off. It is equal to the friction between the tyres and the road if no banking has been done on the road at the corner.
