4. Is the force of the earth’s gravity on the sun stronger, weaker, or the same as the force of the sun’s gravity on the earth?

Explain why the sun’s attraction affects the motion of the earth more than the earth’s attraction affects the sun’s motion. Employ Newton’s second and third laws in your answer.

When two point charges are a distance d apart, the magnitude of the electrostatic force between them is F. If the distance betwe
EastWind [94]

Answer:

The magnitude of the electrostatic force decreases by a factor 9

Explanation:

The electrostatic force between two charges is given by:

F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{d^2}

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q1 and q2 are the two charges

d is the distance between the two charges

We see that the magnitude of the force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance. If the distance is increased to 3d: d' = 3d, the new electrostatic force would be:

F'=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{(d')^2}=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{(3d)^2}=\frac{1}{9} k\frac{q_1 q_2}{d^2}=\frac{F}{9}

So, the electrostatic force decreases by a factor 9.

Given that the efficiency of heating your room is roughly 35%, what mass of natural gas is actually necessary to heat your room
Mrac [35]

Answer:

Mass of natural gas needed to heat the room is 350,000BTUs

Explanation:

The heating efficiency of a furnace is never 100% because not all energy is released and not all heat is available to heat the place. A lesser efficiency requires more consumption of fuel. Heating values are used for heating fuels in order to calculate the mass of fuel needed.

The heating value of natural gas is 1,000,000BTUs

Therefore the formular for calculating mass of natural gas needed= Heating value of natural gas×efficiency.

Mass=1,000,000×0.35

Mass=350,000BTUs
