This is a good time to review Newton's 3rd law of motion:
"For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction."

Gravitational force always acts in pairs.
Whatever force the Earth attracts something with,
the thing attracts the Earth with exactly the same force.

If Earth attracts a person with a gravitational force of <span><span>7.0 × 10² </span>newtons,
the person attracts Earth with a gravitational force of 7.0 × 10² newtons.

Describe the general characteristics of the nearest stars. (Size, luminosity, color, etc., do not include specific stars)
Darina [25.2K]

Answer: The five general characteristics of the nearest stars are the brightness, color, surface temperature, size, and mass.

Explanation:

The mass of a star can be described as being measured with our sun at 1 solar mass. One star can equal the size of our sun. There is one star named, Rigel, that is bigger than the Earths sun. Each star will vary in its density.

The size of the star, as stated above, can be the size of our sun and sometimes larger. The size is measured by solar radii.

Stars vary in their temp. They range anywhere from -273.15 degrees Celsius to 50,000 K. The temp is based on the Kelvin scale.

The stars brightness are always based on luminosity and magnitude.

The stars colors will vary and is based on the temperature of the surface of the star. Some stars are red in color, white in color, and some even have a bluish color.

A 99.1-kg baseball player slides into second base. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the player and the ground is μk =
Stels [109]

Answer:

628.022466 N

8.61 m/s

Explanation:

m = Mass

\mu = Coefficient of friction

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

F_f=\mu mg\\\Rightarrow F_f=0.646\times 99.1\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow F_f=628.022466\ N

Magnitude of frictional force is 628.022466 N

F=ma\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{F_f}{m}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{628.022466}{99.1}\\\Rightarrow a=6.33726\ m/s^2

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 0=u-6.33726\times 1.36\\\Rightarrow u=8.61\ m/s

Initial speed of the player is 8.61 m/s
