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!!

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Temperature at the bottom will be 19.18°C

Explanation:

We have given height h = 807 m

Temperature at the top =17.3^{\circ}C

Specific heat of water c = 4200 J/kg/^{\circ}C

From energy conservation

Kinetic energy at the bottom = potential energy at the top

So mc\Delta T=mgh

\Delta T=\frac{gh}{c}=\frac{9.8\times 807}{4200}=1.88^{\circ}C

So temperature at the bottom = 17.3+1.88 = 19.18°C

If you were trying to kill a fish witha a spear, woukd you ain where you see the fish?
patriot [66]
No, you can't aim where you see the fish, because refraction will change the position of the fish and make it appear in a different position from where it actually is.

Hope this helps!

The angular momentum of an electron in each of its orbits must be some multiple of:
Nastasia [14]
The Bohr's proposal for the angular momentum of an electron in Bohr's model of the hydrogen atom is:

L=(n*h)/(2π), where n is the number of the energy level and h is the Planck's constant. This equation shows us the quantization of angular momentum of the electron. So the correct answer is the second one: Planck's constant.
