90t - .100 = 75t

90t - 75t = 0.100

15t = 0.100

t = 0.0067

<u>t = 0.0067 hours or 24.12 seconds</u> (.0067 * 60 minutes * 60 seconds)

From the gravitational law calculate the weight W (gravitational force with respect to the earth) of a 89-kg man in a spacecraft

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

$W=\frac{773}{4.45}=173.76 l b f$

Explanation:

$W=\frac{G \cdot m_{e} \cdot m}{(R+h)^{2}}$

The law of gravitation

$G=6.673\left(10^{-11}\right) m^{3} /\left(k g \cdot s^{2}\right)$

Universal gravitational constant [S.I. units]

$m_{e}=5.976\left(10^{24}\right) k g$

Mass of Earth [S.I. units]

$m=89 kg$

Mass of a man in a spacecraft [S.I. units]

$R=6371 \mathrm{~km}$

Earth radius [km]

Distance between man and the earth's surface

$h=261 \mathrm{~km} \quad[\mathrm{~km}]$

ESULT $W=\frac{6.673\left(10^{-11}\right) \cdot 5.976\left(10^{24}\right) \cdot 89}{\left(6371 \cdot 10^{3}+261 \cdot 10^{3}\right)^{2}}=773.22 \mathrm{~N}$

$W=\frac{773}{4.45}=173.76 l b f$

How do vafiations in electronegativity result in the unequal sharign of electrons in polar molecuels?

nirvana33 [79]

Answer and Explanation:

Polar molecules are formed as a result of unequal sharing of electrons by the atoms in the molecule which creates polarization like that in water molecule.

If the electrons are shared equally by the atoms in the molecule then there won't be any polarization of the molecule and the molecule is non polar.

Electro-negativity is that property of an atom which lets it attract negative charges, i.e., electrons. The more the electro-negativity of an atom in the molecule the more are the chances of its polarization.

One end of a 7-cm-long spring is attached to the ceiling. When a 5.4 kg mass is hung from the other end, the spring is stretched

mash [69]

Answer:

2.63 cm

Explanation:

Hooke's law gives that the force F is equal to cy where c is spring constant and x is extension

Making c the subject of the formula then

$c=\frac {F}{y}$

Since F is gm but taking the given mass to be F

$c=\frac {5.4 kg}{4.3 cm}=1.2558139534883720930232558139534883720930$

By substitution now considering F to be 3.3 kg

$y=\frac {3.3 kg}{1.2558139534883720930232558139534883720930}=2.6277777777777 cm\approx 2.63 cm$
