Each of the following diagrams shows a spaceship somewhere along the way between Earth and the Moon (not to scale); the midpoint

of the distance is marked to make it easier to see how the locations compare. Assume the spaceship has the same mass throughout the trip (that is, it is not burning any fuel). Rank the five positions of the spaceship from left to right based on the strength of the gravitational force that Earth exerts on the spaceship, from strongest to weakest.

Answer:

F_5 >F_4>F_1 >F_2>F_3

Where F_i represent the force for each of the 5 cases i -1,2,3,4,5 presented on the figure attached.

Explanation:

For this case the figure attached shows the illustration for the problem

We have an inverse square law with distance for the force, so then the force of gravity between Earth and the spaceship is lower when the spaceship is far away from Earth.

Th formula is given by:

F = G \frac{m_{Earth} m_{Spaceship}}{r^2}

Where G is a constant G = 6.674 x10^{-11} m^2/ (ks s^2)

m_{Earth} represent the mass for the earth

m_{spaceship} represent the mass for the spaceship

r represent the radius between the earth and the spaceship

For this reason when the distance between the Earth and the Spaceship increases the Force of gravity needs to decrease since are inversely proportional the force and the radius, and for the other case when the Earth and the spaceship are near then the radius decrease and the Force increase.

Based on this case we can create the following rank:

F_5 >F_4>F_1 >F_2>F_3

Where F_i represent the force for each of the 5 cases i -1,2,3,4,5 presented on the figure attached.

Part A Determine the magnitude of the x component of F using scalar notation. Fx F x = nothing lb Request Answer Part B Determin
maksim [4K]

As we know that force F makes an angle of 60 degree with X axis

so the X component is given as

cos60 = \frac{F_x}{F}

now we have

F_x = F cos60

F_x = 0.50 F

Similarly we know that force F makes an angle of 45 degree with Y axis

so the X component is given as

cos45 = \frac{F_y}{F}

now we have

F_y = F cos45

F_y = 0.707 F

Now for the component along z axis we know that

F_x^2 + F_y^2 + F_z^2 = F^2

now plug in all components

(0.707 F)^2 + (0.50 F)^2 + F_z^2 = F^2

0.5 F^2 + 0.25 F^2 + F_z^2 = F^2

F_z^2 = F^2(1 - 0.75)

F_z^2 = 0.25 F^2

F_z = 0.5 F

What is the stretch when you pull with a force of 25 N on a spring with a spring constant of 8 N/m? *
Pani-rosa [81]

Hooke's Law

\tt F=k.\Delta x

k = spring constant

x = stretch

F = force

Input the value

\tt \Delta x=\dfrac{F}{k}=\dfrac{25}{8}=3.125\rightarrow 3.13\:m
