Find the position of the center of mass of the system of the sun and Jupiter? (Since Jupiter is more massive than the rest of th

e planets combined, this is essentially the position of the center of mass of the solar system.)

Answer:

r_{cm} = 0.074 m from the position of the center of the Sun

Explanation:

As we know that mass of Sun and Jupiter is given as

M_s = 1.98 \times 10^{30} kg

M_j = 1.89 \times 10^{27} kg

distance between Sun and Jupiter is given as

r = 7.78 \times 10^{11} m

now let the position of Sun is origin and position of Jupiter is given at the position same as the distance between them

so we will have

r_{cm} = \frac{M_s r_1 + M_j r_2}{M_s + M_j}

r_{cm} = \frac{1.98 \times 10^{30} (0) + (1.89 \times 10^{27})(7.78 \times 10^{11})}{1.98 \times 10^{30} + 1.89 \times 10^{27}}

r_{cm} = 0.074 m from the position of the center of the Sun

You place a 0.17 kg can of soup and a 0.31 kg jar of pickles on the kitchen counter, separated by a distance of 0.42 m. What is
tangare [24]

1.984 \times 10^{-11} \mathrm{N} \text { is the force of gravity exerted on the jar of pickles. }

<u>Explanation</u>:

According to Newton's third law that each force has an equal and opposite reaction force in this case both of the jars will exert the same force an each other

. The force is given by

\mathrm{F}=\frac{G \times M_{1} \times M_{2}}{r^{2}}

Where, F = force, G=\text { gravitational constant }=\left(6.67 \times 10^{-11}\right), mass \left(\mathrm{M}_{1}\right)=0.17 \mathrm{kg}, mass \left M_{2}= 0.31 \mathrm{kg} and Distance(r) = 0.42 m.

Substitute the values in the formula.

\mathrm{F}=\frac{6.67 \times 10^{-11} \times 0.17 \times 0.31}{0.42^{2}}

\mathrm{F}=\frac{3.51 \times 10^{-12}}{0.176}

\mathrm{F}=1.984 \times 10^{-11} \mathrm{N}

\text { The force of gravity exerted on the jar of pickles is } 1.984 \times 10^{-11} \mathrm{N} \text { . }

When discussing Newton's laws of motion,which terms do people most likely yse when talking about Newton's third law of motion?​
mestny [16]

When discussing Newton's laws of motion, particularly Newton's third law of motion, the terms that almost everyone will use are "action"​ and "reaction".

You must not take this to mean that they understand what they're talking about.
