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.

The construction of a flat rectangular roof (6.17 m × 5.92 m) allows it to withstand a maximum net outward force of 2.00 × 104 N
Blababa [14]

Answer:

v_2=29.13\ m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Dimension of the rectangular roof, (6.17 m × 5.92 m)

The maximum net outward force, F=2\times 10^4\ N

The density of air, \rho=1.29\ kg/m^3

The Bernoulli equation is used to find wind speed of this roof blow outward. It is given by :

P_1+\dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2=P_2+\dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2

Here, v_1=0 (since air inside the roof is not moving)

v_2=\sqrt{\dfrac{2(P_1-P_2)}{\rho}}

Since, F=(P_1-P_2)A

v_2=\sqrt{\dfrac{2F}{\rho A}}

v_2=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 2\times 10^4}{1.29\times 6.17\times 5.92 }}

v_2=29.13\ m/s

So, the wind speed of  this roof blow outward is 29.13 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

You pull with a force of 77 N on a piece of luggage of mass 23 kg, but it does
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

The force of static friction acting on the luggage is, Fₓ = 180.32 N

Explanation:

Given data,

The mass of the luggage, m = 23 kg

You pulled the luggage with a force of, F = 77 N

The coefficient of static friction of luggage and floor, μₓ = 0.8

The formula for static frictional force is,

                                      Fₓ = μₓ · η

Where,

                                  η - normal force acting on the luggage 'mg'

Substituting the values in the above equation,

                                   Fₓ = 0.8 x 23 x 9.8

                                        = 180.32 N

Hence, the minimum force require to pull the luggage is, Fₓ = 180.32 N

Substances X and Y are both nonpolar. If the volatility of X is higher than that of Y, what is the best explanation?
lesya692 [45]
I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is the last option.  If the volatility of X is higher than that of Y, then  <span>Y’s molecules experience stronger London dispersion forces than X’s molecules. All molecules has london dispersion forces. Also,  the stronger the bond, the harder it is to volatilize. Hope this answers the question.</span>
