Answer:
Explanation:
The exercise is to draw the corresponding vectors:
Every one is the multiplication of a scalar by a vector.
The result of multiplying a scalar by a vector is a vector with the same direction of the original vector enlarged in a factor equal to the scalar magntitude.
Thus, in a graph the resulting vector is represented with a parallel arrow and pointing in the same direction as the original vector but with a length equal to the original length multiplied by the magnitude of the scalar.
For instance, the vector is represented with an arrow in the same direction of
and with twice its length.
The figure attached contains the five requested vectors using the procedure explained above.
Answer:
x_{cm} = 4.644 10⁶ m
Explanation:
The center of mass is given by the equation
= 1 /
∑
Where M_{total} is the total masses of the system, is the distance between the particles and
is the masses of each body
Let's apply this equation to our problem
M = Me + m
M = 5.98 10²⁴ + 7.36 10²²
M = 605.36 10²² kg
Let's locate a reference system located in the center of the Earth
Let's calculate
x_{cm} = 1 / 605.36 10²² [Me 0 + 7.36 10²² 3.82 10⁸]
x_{cm} = 4.644 10⁶ m
