The gravitational force of attraction on Earth due to the Sun and the Moon is \boxed{3.544 \times {{10}^{22}}\,{\text{N}}}.

Further Explanation:

The gravitational force of attraction experienced by one body due to the other body is given by the Newton’s law of Gravitation. The newton’s law of Gravitation states that the force experienced by the bodies is directly proportional to the product of the masses of the two bodies and inversely proportional to the square of distance between the bodies.

The force experienced by the Earth due to the moon is;

{F_{EM}} = \dfrac{{G{M_E}{M_M}}}{{r_{EM}^2}}

Here, {F_{EM}} is the force experienced by Earth due to moon, {r_{EM}} is the distance between Earth and Moon.

The mass of the Earth is 5.987 \times {10^{24}}\,{\text{kg}}.

The mass of the Moon is 7.35 \times {10^{22}}\,{\text{kg}}.

The distance between the Earth and Moon is 3.84 \times {10^8}\,{\text{m}}.

Substitute the values in the above expression.

\begin{aligned}{F_{EM}}&=\frac{{\left( {6.674 \times {{10}^{ - 11}}} \right)\times\left( {5.987 \times {{10}^{24}}} \right) \times \left( {7.35 \times {{10}^{22}}} \right)}}{{{{\left( {3.84 \times {{10}^8}} \right)}^2}}}\\&= \frac{{2.937 \times {{10}^{37}}}}{{1.47 \times {{10}^{17}}}}\\&= 1.986 \times {10^{20}}\,{\text{N}}\\\end{aligned}

The force experienced by the Earth due to the Sun is;

{F_{ES}} =\dfrac{{G{M_E}{M_S}}}{{r_{ES}^2}}

Here,  {F_{ES}} is the force experienced by Earth due to Sun,   is the distance between Earth and Sun.

The mass of the Sun is  1.99 \times {10^{30}}\,{\text{kg}}.

The distance between the Earth and Sun is 1.5 \times {10^{11}}\,{\text{m}}.

Substitute the values in the above expression.

\begin{aligned}{F_{EM}}&= \frac{{\left( {6.674 \times {{10}^{ - 11}}} \right) \times \left( {5.987 \times {{10}^{24}}} \right) \times \left( {1.99 \times {{10}^{30}}\,{\text{kg}}} \right)}}{{{{\left( {1.5 \times {{10}^{11}}{\text{m}}}\right)}^2}}}\\&=\frac{{7.929 \times {{10}^{44}}}}{{2.25 \times {{10}^{22}}}}\\&= 3.524 \times {10^{22}}\,{\text{N}}\\\end{aligned}

The net force acting on the Earth is given as:

 {F_{{\text{net}}}} = {F_{EM}} + {F_{ES}}

Substitute the values of forces.

\begin{aligned}{F_{{\text{net}}}}&= 1.986 \times {10^{20}}\,{\text{N}} + 3.524\times {10^{22}}\,{\text{N}}\\&= 3.544 \times {10^{22}}\,{\text{N}} \\\end{aligned}

Thus, the gravitational force of attraction on Earth due to the Sun and the Moon is \boxed{3.544 \times {{10}^{22}}\,{\text{N}}}.

g A 1.45-kg block is pushed against a vertical wall by means of a spring (k = 860 N/m). The coefficient of static friction betwe
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

The minimum compression is  x= 0.046m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

              The mass of the block is m_b = 1.45 kg

               The spring constant is  k = 860 N/m

               The coefficient of static friction is  \mu = 0.36

For the the block not slip it mean the sum of forces acting on the  horizontal axis is equal to the forces acting on the vertical axis

     Now the force acting on the vertical axis is the force due to gravity which is mathematically given as

                   F_y = m_b*g

And the force acting on the horizontal axis is  force due to the spring which is mathematically represented as

                   F_x = k *x * \mu

where x is the minimum compression to keep the block from slipping

        Now equating this two formulas and making x the subject

                      x = \frac{m_b * g}{k * \mu}

substituting values we have

                     x = \frac{1.45 * 9.8}{860 *0.36}

                        x= 0.046m

Why is pure oxygen stored as a liquid under pressure
yKpoI14uk [10]
<h2>Answer: It is highly flammable.</h2>

Explanation:

Liquid oxygen is created from oxygen atoms that have been forced to assume the liquid state due to <u>compression (change of pressure) and temperature modification. </u>

Specifically this is achieved by cooling the oxygen enough to change it to its liquid state. So,<u> as the temperature drops, the atoms move more slowly because they have less energy. </u>

In this sense, in the liquid state it is easier to store and mobilize oxygen, taking into account that it is a highly flammable gas.

A disk-shaped platform has a known rotational inertia ID. The platform is mounted on a fixed axle and rotates in a horizontal pl
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

The angular momentum of that same disk-sphere remains unchanged the very same way before and after the impact of the collision when the clay sphere adheres to the disk.

 \mathbf{I_w} = constant.

The overall value of such moment of inertia is now altered when the clay spherical sticks. Due to the inclusion of the clay sphere, the moment of inertia will essentially rise. As a result of this increase, the angular speed w decreases in value.

Recall that:

The Kinetic energy is given by:

\mathbf{K = \dfrac{1}{2} Iw^2} \\ \\\mathbf{K = \dfrac{1}{2} lw*w}

where;

\mathbf{I_w} is constant and w reduces;

As a result, just after the collision, the system's total kinetic energy decreases.

Which of the following would have more momentum than fiona, a 313kg hippo, running at 8m/s?
kap26 [50]
Let's calculate the momentum of Fiona, given by the product between its mass and its speed:
p=mv=(313 kg)(8 m/s)=2504 kg m/s

Now let's compare it with the momentum of the other animals:
a) the mass of the sea turtle is missing, so we cannot calculate its momentum.
b) the momentum of the dolphin is 
p=mv=(150 kg)(18 m/s)=2700 kg m/s
c) the momentum of the horse is
p=mv=(380 kg)(4 m/s)=1520 kg m/s
d) the momentum of the lion is
p=mv=(190 kg)(11 m/s)=2090 m/s

And we can see that the correct answer is b), because the momentum of the dolphin is greater than the momentum of Fiona.
