The force of gravity on a certain object is calculated through the equation,
 
   F = Gm1m2 / r²

where F is the force, G is a constant, m1 and m2 are masses of the object and Earth, respectively and r is the distance. Substituting the known values for this item,

   F = (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²)(1 kg)(5.98 x 10²⁴ kg)/ (6.4 x 10⁶ m)²

         F = 9.37 N

Answer: 9.37 N

If a 6V battery is connected to a light bulb whose resistance is 55,000Ω How much current will flow in the circuit?
notka56 [123]

Answer:

Current, I = 0.000109 Amps

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Voltage = 6V

Resistance = 55,000 Ohms

To find the current flowing through the circuit;

Ohm's law states that at constant temperature, the current flowing in an electrical circuit is directly proportional to the voltage applied across the two points and inversely proportional to the resistance in the electrical circuit.

Mathematically, Ohm's law is given by the formula;

V = IR

Where;

V represents voltage measured in voltage.

I represents current measured in amperes.

R represents resistance measured in ohms.

Making current the subject of formula, we have;

I = \frac {V}{R}

Substituting into the formula, we have;

I = \frac {6}{55000}

Current, I = 0.000109 Amps

A 25.0 g marble sliding to the right at 20.0 cm/s overtakes and collides elastically with a 10.0 g marble moving in the same dir
vovikov84 [41]
In collision that are categorized as elastic, the total kinetic energy of the system is preserved such that,

   KE1  = KE2

The kinetic energy of the system before the collision is solved below.

  KE1 = (0.5)(25)(20)² + (0.5)(10g)(15)²
  KE1 = 6125 g cm²/s²

This value should also be equal to KE2, which can be calculated using the conditions after the collision.

KE2 = 6125 g cm²/s² = (0.5)(10)(22.1)² + (0.5)(25)(x²)

The value of x from the equation is 17.16 cm/s.

Hence, the answer is 17.16 cm/s.

Explain the Big Bang and how it started
AlexFokin [52]

The big bang is how astronomers explain the way the universe began. It is the idea that the universe began as just a single point, then expanded and stretched to grow as large as it is right now (and it could still be stretching).

A 11,000-kg train car moving due east at 21.0 m/s collides with and couples to a 23,000-kg train car that is initially at rest.
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

v = 6.79 m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of a train car, m₁ = 11000 kg

Speed of train car, u₁ = 21 m/s

Mass of other train car, m₂ = 23000 kg

Initially, the other train car is at rest, u₂ = 0

It is a case based on inelastic collision as both car couples each other after the collision. The law of conservation of momentum satisied here. So,

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=(m_1+m_2)V

V is the common velocity after the collisions

V=\dfrac{m_1u_1}{(m_1+m_2)}\\\\V=\dfrac{11000\times 21}{(11000+23000)}\\\\V=6.79\ m/s

So, the two car train will move with a common velocity of 6.79 m/s.

Hoover Dam on the Colorado River is the highest dam in the United States at 221m, with a power output of 680 MW. The dam generat
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

The power in this flow is 9.56\times10^{8}\ W

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance = 221 m

Power output = 680 MW

Height =150 m

Average flow rate = 650 m³/s

Suppose we need to calculate the power in this flow in watt

We need to calculate the pressure

Using formula of pressure

Pressure=\rho g h

Where, \rho= density

h = height

g = acceleration due to gravity

Put the value into the formula

Pressure=1000\times9.8\times150

Pressure=1470000\ Nm^2

We need to calculate the power

Using formula of power

P=Pressure\times flow\ rate

Put the value into the formula

P=1470000\times650

P=9.56\times10^{8}\ W

Hence, The power in this flow is 9.56\times10^{8}\ W
