The boy weighs 50.0 kg when he is 1R from the center of the Earth. To get his weight  5R away, we can use the formula:

W_{boy} = G * m1 * m2 / r^{2}

Where G, m1, and m2 are constants. By ratio and proportion:

W_{boy}  * ((5R)^{2}= 50.0 kg * 9.81 m/ * ((1R)^{2}

Canceling R on both sides and by computation:

W_{boy}= 19.6 N

Isaac Newton used a ____ to break white light into its component colors.
ivann1987 [24]
<h2>Answer: Prism</h2>

In the eighteenth century Isaac Newton found out that <u>when a beam of light from the Sun, passes trhough a prism is decomposed in many different colors</u>. He named this phenomenom as dispersion of light.

This phenomenom occurs when a beam of white light (which is compound of many wavelengths or "colors") is refracted (the different rays of light are diverted depending on their wavelengths) in some medium, leaving their constituent colors separated.  

Therefore:

The first asteroid to be discovered is Ceres. It is the largest and most massive asteroid in our solar system’s asteroid belt, h
stira [4]

Answer:

4.81*10^{29}J

Explanation:

Since the formula for kinetic energy of an object is:

E_k = \frac{mv^2}{2}

Where m is the mass of the object and v is the speed. We can substitute m = 3*10^{21}kg and v = 17900m/s:

E_k = \frac{3*10^{21} * (17900)^2}{2} = 4.81*10^{29}J

Even when shut down after a period of normal use, a large commercial nuclear reactor transfers thermal energy at the rate of 150
Sever21 [200]

Answer:2.89\approx 2.9^{\circ}C/s

Explanation:

Given

Power\left ( P\right )=150 MW

mass of core\left ( m\right )=1.60\times 10^5 kg

Average specific heat \left ( C\right )=0.3349 KJ/kg^{\circ}C

And rate of increase of temperature =\frac{\mathrm{d}T}{\mathrm{d} t}

Now

P=mc\frac{\mathrm{d}T}{\mathrm{d} t}

150\times 10^6=1.60\times 10^5\times 0.3349\times \frac{\mathrm{d}T}{\mathrm{d} t}

Thus \frac{\mathrm{d}T}{\mathrm{d} t}=[tex]\frac{1.60\times 10^5\times 0.3349}{150\times 10^6}

\frac{\mathrm{d}T}{\mathrm{d} t}=2.89\approx 2.9^{\circ}C/s
