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 fighter jet accelerates from 10 m/s to 75 m/s in 7.0 s. The acceleration of the jet is
liraira [26]
Acceleration = final velocity - inital / time
a = 75-10 / 7
a = 65 / 7
a = 9.29 m/s^2

Starting from rest, a person runs with a constant acceleration, traveling 40 meters in 10 seconds. What is their final velocity?
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

Final velocity v = 8.944 m/sec

Explanation:

We have given distance S = 40 meters

Time t = 10 sec

As it starts from rest so initial velocity u = 0

From second equation of motion s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

40=0\times 10+\frac{1}{2}a10^2

a=0.8944m/sec^2

Now from first equation of motion v=u+at, here v is final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is acceleration and t is time

So v=u+at=0+0.8944\times 10=8.944m/sec
