The formula for force of attraction between any two bodies in the universe
F  =  GMm / r^2.      (Newton's Universal law of Gravitation).

G = Universal gravitational constant, G = 6.67 * 10 ^ -11  Nm^2 / kg^2.
M = Mass of first object. = 5.97 x 10^24 kg.
m = mass of second object = 50 kg.
r = distance apart, between centers = in this case it is the radius of the earth
   = 6.38 x 10^6 m.
( Sorry I could not assume with the values you gave).
(Actually the force of attraction between an object on the Earth and the Earth is the weight of the object our answer should be around 500N which is from mg = 50 *10 = 500)

So F = ((6.67 * 10 ^ -11)*(5.97 x 10^24)*(50)) / (6.38 x 10^6)^2.
  Punch it all up in your calculator.
F = 489. 135 N.

Remember we said it would be around 500.
So that's our answer.
F = 489. 135 N.    Hurray!!

What part of the electromagnetic spectrum do you think is most important and why?
KonstantinChe [14]
Radio waves, gamma-rays, visible light, and all the other parts of the electromagnetic spectrum are electromagnetic radiation. Electromagnetic radiation can be described in terms of a stream of mass-less particles, ...

The electromagnetic spectrum is a map of all the types of light that we can identify. It separates all the types of light by wavelength because that directly relates to how energetic the wave is. More energetic wave

For most of history, visible light was the only known part of the electromagnetic spectrum. The ancient Greeks recognized that light traveled in straight lines and studied some of its properties, including reflection

Answer: h = 3.34 m

Explanation:

If the hat is thrown straight up, then at its highest point it has no motion and no kinetic energy. All energy is potential energy

PE = mgh

h = PE/mg = 4.92 / (0.150(9.81)) = 3.34352... ≈3.34 m

Why is it difficult to walk on muddy road?
Gnesinka [82]
Because of internal friction between layers of mud particles called viscosity. When you walk, your foot exerts a force on the mud; and according to Newton, the mud also (is supposed to) exert an equal opposite force, which leading to an equal net resultant force in your direction, propelling you forward.

Which causes the thermocline?
Igoryamba
<span>Thermocline is a layer between warm water from the ocean’s surface and cool water from below the ocean. In here, the temperature decreases rapidly from the warmer layer to the colder layer.  A thermocline forms due to the heat of the sun heating the ocean’s surface. Because of the difference in density between warm and cooler ocean water, cooler ocean water sinks and warmer ocean water floats. This is caused due to the heat and mass transfer between particles of the ocean. The answer is letter C. The sun’s radiation does not extend below a certain depth; therefore, deeper ocean water is colder than surface water.</span>
