Answer:

15.7 m

Explanation:

m = mass of the sled = 125 kg

v₀ = initial speed of the sled = 8.1 m/s

v = final speed of sled = 0 m/s

F = force applied by the brakes in opposite direction of motion = 261

d = stopping distance for the sled

Using work-change in kinetic energy theorem

- F d = (0.5) m (v² - v₀²)

- (261) d = (0.5) (125) (0² - 8.1²)

d = 15.7 m

The mass of a certain neutron star is 2.5x10^30kg and the radius 7000m. what is the force of gravity on a 1kg object of the surf
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

3.42N

Explanation:

*not too sure bc i left my physics notes at school so it might not be 100% accurate :p*

Use the equation: F = (GMm)/(r^2)

F = force of gravity

G = gravitational constant (6.7x10^-11)

M = mass1 (2.5x10^30kg)

m = mass2 (1kg)

r = radius (7000m)

Plug it in: F = ((6.7x10^-11)(2.5x10^30)(1)) / (7000^2)

F = (1.675x10^20) / (4.9x10^7)

F = 3.4183673x10^12

F = 3.42N
