<u>Weight = (mass) x (acceleration of gravity)</u>

Divide each side by (mass),and we have

                     Acceleration of gravity = (weight) / (mass)

Acceleration of gravity = 2,970/90 = 33 newtons per kilogram = <em>33 m/s²</em>

Two balls have their centers 2.0 m apart. One ball has a mass of m1 = 7.9 kg. The other has a mass of m2 = 6.1 kg. What is the g

Answer:

3.036×10⁻¹⁰ N

Explanation:

From newton's law of universal gravitation,

F = Gm1m2/r² .............................. Equation 1

Where F = Gravitational force between the balls, m1 = mass of the first ball, m2 = mass of the second ball, r = distance between their centers.

G = gravitational constant

Given: m1 = 7.9 kg, m2 = 6.1 kg, r = 2.0 m, G = 6.67×10⁻¹¹ Nm²/C²

Substituting into equation 1

F = 6.67×10⁻¹¹×7.9×6.1/2²

F = 321.427×10⁻¹¹/4

F = 30.36×10⁻¹¹

F = 3.036×10⁻¹⁰ N

Hence the force between the balls = 3.036×10⁻¹⁰ N

How are the spiral arms of the milky way detected?
Step2247 [10]
The spiral structure emerges when galactic clusters (open), H II regions and O & B type stars (young stars) are used as tracers. We know this to be true as other pinwheel galaxies exhibit the same patterns across these tracers as in the milky way.

How can you tell that toast is not warmed up by conduction?
solmaris [256]

Answer:

Toasting in a toaster is usually considered  by (infra red) radiation. But the hot coils touch the toast so an element of heating by conduction occurs as well.
