Answer:

The Earth weighs 5.972 × 10^24 kg

The Sun is 94.022 million miles away.

A black hole is is a region of spacetime where gravity is so strong that nothing, no particles or even electromagnetic radiation such as light can escape from it. The theory of general relativity predicts that a sufficiently compact mass can deform spacetime to form a black hole.

I hope this helps!! :)

Answer: find the answer in the explanation.

Explanation:

1.) The weight of the earth can be calculated and estimated by the physicist by considering the mass of the earth and the knowlegde of gravity.

If the mass of the earth is considered to be 6 × 10^24 kg. Then with Physics formula and some mathematical techniques, we can conclude that the weight of the earth is approximately equal to 6 × 10^25 N.

2.) The distance of the sun to the earth is approximately 1.5 × 10^8 km. This measure is the distance from the surface of the earth to the sun.

3.) The black hole is approximately the size of the earth of very large gravitational field strength. It is a region of space of enormous gravity where no particular object can escape from it. Even electromagnetic radiation or light cannot escape from it.

At which position is the LOWEST potential energy?
Ad libitum [116K]
The answer is position 3, because it is at its lowest point.

Potential Energy is “stored energy.” It is energy that is ready to be converted or released as another type of energy. We most often think of potential energy as gravitational potential energy. When objects are higher up, they are ready to fall back down. When you stretch an object and it has a tendency to return to its original shape, it is said to have elastic potential energy. Chemical potential energy is the stored energy in a substance’s chemical structure that can be released in a chemical reaction or as heat.

Initially sliding with a speed of 1.9 m/s, a 1.8 kg block collides with a spring and compresses it 0.35 m before coming to rest.
Alika [10]
Let k =  the force constant of the spring (N/m).

The strain energy (SE) stored in the spring when it is compressed by a distance x=0.35 m is
SE = (1/2)*k*x²
     = 0.5*(k N/m)*(0.35 m)²
     = 0.06125k J

The KE (kinetic energy) of the sliding block is
KE = (1/2)*mass*velocity²
     = 0.5*(1.8 kg)*(1.9 m/s)²
     = 3.249 J

Assume that negligible energy is lost when KE is converted into SE.
Therefore
0.06125k = 3.249
k = 53.04 N/m

Answer:  53 N/m  (nearest integer)

Why are not all<br>materials conductive<br>to electricity​
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

In conductive materials, the outer electrons in each atom can easily come or go, and are called free electrons. In insulating materials, the outer electrons are not so free to move. All metals are electrically conductive.
