Explanation:
Assume both children bodies are point particles. The total moment of inertia about the rotation axis of 2 points particles of mass 16 kg and 25 kg at 1.5 m arm length is
where are the masses of 2 children
are their distance to the center of rotation
Answer: 6,400 km
Explanation:
The weight of a person is given by:
where m is the mass of the person and g is the acceleration due to gravity. While the mass does not depend on the height above the surface, the value of g does, following the formula:
where
G is the gravitational constant
M is the Earth's mass
r is the distance of the person from the Earth's center
The problem says that the person weighs 800 N at the Earth's surface, so when r=R (Earth's radius):
(1)
Now we want to find the height h above the surface at which the weight of the man is 200 N:
(2)
If we divide eq.(1) by eq.(2), we get
By solving the equation, we find:
which has two solutions:
--> negative solution, we can ignore it
--> this is our solution
Since the Earth's radius is , the person should be at
above Earth's surface.
