Answer:

c.  |F_T|=8\frac{Gm^2}{d^2}

   

Explanation:

In order to calculate the gravitational force on the mass of the center, you take into account the following formula:

F=G\frac{m_1m_2}{r}         (1)

Furthermore, you take into account the components of the resultant vector.

By the illustration, you have that the force is given by:

F_T=F_1+F_2+F_3+F_4\\\\F_1=\frac{Gm_1m}{r^2}[-cos45\°\hat{i}+sin45\°\hat{j}]\\\\F_2=\frac{Gm_2m}{r^2}[cos45\°\hat{i}+sin45\°\hat{j}]\\\\F_3=\frac{Gm_3m}{r^2}[cos45\°\hat{i}-sin45\°\hat{j}]\\\\F_4=\frac{Gm_4m}{r^2}[-cos45\°\hat{i}-sin45\°\hat{j}]

where:

m1 = m

m2 = 2m

m3 = m

m4 = 4m

m: mass at the center of the system

The distance r is:

r=\sqrt{(\frac{d}{2})^2+(\frac{d}{2})^2}=\frac{d}{\sqrt{2}}

You replace the values for all masses and sum the contributions of all forces:

F_1=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\frac{Gm^2}{(\frac{d^2}{2})}[-\hat{i}+\hat{j}]=\sqrt{2}\frac{Gm^2}{d^2}[-\hat{i}+\hat{j}]\\\\F_2=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\frac{2Gm^2}{(\frac{d^2}{2})}[\hat{i}+\hat{j}]=2\sqrt{2}\frac{Gm^2}{d^2}[\hat{i}+\hat{j}]\\\\F_3=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\frac{Gm^2}{(\frac{d^2}{2})}[\hat{i}-\hat{j}]=\sqrt{2}\frac{Gm^2}{s^2}[\hat{i}-\hat{j}]\\\\F_4=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\frac{4Gm^2}{(\frac{d^2}{2})}[-\hat{i}-\hat{j}]=4\sqrt{2}\frac{Gm^2}{d^2}[-\hat{i}-\hat{j}]\\\\F_T=-2\sqrt{2}\frac{Gm^2}{d^2}}[\hat{i}+\hat{j}]

and the magnitude is:

c.  |F_T|=8\frac{Gm^2}{d^2}

ANSWER ASAP PLEASE 15 POINTS
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

SO4

Explanation:

I'm not sure if you're asking for more than one answer but S04 is one of them, you can search it up if you don't believe me

ion with the subscript of the atoms in a polyatomic ion. There is only ONE Cu and ONE S04, so get the charge for the Cu based on the S04. The formula is S04 , and there is only ONE S04 2, so Cu's charge here must be +2 for the compound to have an overall charge of zero. = copper (Il) ion S04 = sulfate ion then CuS04 = copper (Il) sulfate

Calculate the force of gravity on a 1–kilogram box located at a point 1.3 × 107 meters from the center of Earth if the force on
Sati [7]

Since you already gave us the weight of the 2.5-kg box,
we don't even need to know what the distance is, just
as long as it doesn't change.

Look at the formula for the gravitational force:

                           F = G  m₁ m₂ / R² .

If 'G', 'm₁' (mass of the Earth), and 'R' (distance from the Earth's center)
don't change, then the Force is proportional to  m₂ ... mass of the box,
and you can write a simple proportion:

                       (6.1 N) / (2.5 kg)  =  (F) / (1 kg)

Cross-multiply:  (6.1 N) (1 kg)  =  (F) (2.5 kg)

Divide each side by (2.5 kg):  F = (6.1N) x (1 kg) / (2.5 kg)  =  2.44 N .
