A free body diagram is a diagram showing all of the forces acting on a system. It shows the relative magnitude and direction of each of the forces. Is that what you're looking for? I don't fully understand what you're asking

Que es un kilogramo fuerza.?

Kipish [7]

El kilogramo de fuerza, o kilopond, es una unidad de fuerza métrica gravitacional. Es igual a la magnitud de la fuerza ejercida sobre un kilogramo de masa en un campo gravitatorio de 9.80665 m / s².

Synchronous communications satellites are placed in a circular orbit that is 3.59 107 m above the surface of the earth. What is

suter [353]

Answer: $0.223 m/s^{2}$

Explanation:

We can solve this with the Law of Universal Gravitation and knowing the acceleration due gravity $g$ of an object above the surface of the planet decreases with the distance (height) of this object from the center of the planet.

Well, according to the law of universal gravitation:

$F=G\frac{m_{E}m}{r^2}$ (1)

Where:

$F$ is the module of the force exerted between both bodies

$G=6.67(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}}$ is the gravitational constant

$m_{E}=5.98(10)^{24} kg$ is the mass of the Earth

$m$ are the mass of each communications satellite

$r=R_{E}+h$ is the distance between the center of the Earth and the satellite

$R_{E}=6.38(10)^{6} m$ is the radius of the Earth

$h=3.59(10)^{7} m$ is the height of the satellite, measured from the Earth's surface

On the other hand, we know according to <u>Newton's 2nd law of motion:</u>

$F=mg$ (2)

Combining (1) and (2):

$G\frac{m_{E}m}{r^2}=mg$ (3)

Isolating $g$ :

$g=\frac{G M_{E}}{r^2}$ (4)

Remembering $r=R_{E}+h$ :

$g=\frac{G M_{E}}{(R_{E}+h)^2}$ (5)

$g=\frac{(6.67(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}})(5.98(10)^{24} kg)}{(6.38(10)^{6} m+3.59(10)^{7} m)^2}$

Finally:

$g=0.223 m/s^{2}$

Compute the torque about the origin of the gravitational force F--mgj acting on a particle of mass m located at 7-xî+ yj and sho

Andrews [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

Force, F = - mg j

r = - 7x i + y j

Torque is defined as the product f force and the perpendicular distance.

It is also defined as the cross product of force vector and the displacement vector.

$\overrightarrow{\tau }=\overrightarrow{r}\times \overrightarrow{F}$

$\overrightarrow{\tau }=(- 7 x i + yj)\times (-mgj)$

[tex]\overrightarrow{\tau }= 7 m g x k

Here, we observe that the torque is independent of y coordinate.
