Calculate the magnitude of the average gravitational force between earth and the moon

1 answer:

5 0

F = G mM / r^2, where
F = gravitational force between the earth and the moon, 
G = Universal gravitational constant = 6.67 x 10^(-11) Nm^2/(kg)^2, 
m = mass of the moon = 7.36 × 10^(22) kg 
M = mass of the earth = 5.9742 × 10^(24) and 
r = distance between the earth and the moon = 384,402 km 

F 
= 6.67 x 10^(-11) * (7.36 × 10^(22) * 5.9742 × 10^(24) / (384,402 )^2 
= 1.985 x 10^(26) N

At a certain instant, the speedometer of the car indicates 80 km/h.

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

It tells the speed of car. At this time the speed of car is 80km/h , means if the car runs constantly at this speed then it will cover 80 kilometres in 1 hour.

A 2.00-kg block of ice is moving on a frictionless horizontal surface. At t = 0 the block is moving to the right with a velocity

enyata [817]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

We shall apply the concept of impulse .

Impulse = force x time = change in momentum

= 5 x 4 = 2 ( V - 3 ) , where V is final velocity of the object

20 = 2V - 6

V = 13 m /s

b )

Impulse applied = - 7 x 4 = - 28 kg m/s ( negative as direction of force is opposite motion )

If v be the final velocity

2 x 3 - 28 = 2 v ( initial momentum - change in momentum = final momentum )

- 22 = 2v

v = - 11 m /s

object will move with 11 m /s in opposite direction .

How does geomagnetism help scientist understand the motion of earth’s plates?

xeze [42]

Answer:

As the "plates" on each side of ridges in the seafloor are pulled away, lava comes up from the middle, hardens and "records" the current magnetic field.

Air enters a turbine operating at steady state with a pressure of 75 Ibf/in.^2, a temperature of 800º R and velocity of 400 ft/s

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

(a) W/m = 49.334 Btu/lb

(b) $\frac{E_{d} }{m}$ = 22.12 Btu/lb

Explanation:

For the given problem, it can be assumed that the system is operating at steady state and the effects of potential energy can be neglected.

(a) Using the thermodynamic table for air.

At the temperature ( $T_{1}$ )of 800 ºR and pressure ( $P_{1}$ ) of 75 Ibf/in.^2, we can deduce that:

Specific enthalpy ( $h_{1}$ ) = 191.81 BTu/lb

Specific entropy ( $s_{1}$ ) = 0.6956 Btu/(lb.ºR)

At the temperature ( $T_{2}$ )of 600 ºR and pressure ( $P_{2}$ ) of 15 Ibf/in.^2, we can deduce that:

Specific enthalpy ( $h_{2}$ ) = 143.47 BTu/lb

Specific entropy ( $s_{2}$ ) = 0.6261 Btu/(lb.ºR)

The work done can be calculated using energy rate equation:

$\frac{W}{m} = \frac{Q}{m} + (h_{1} - h_{2}) + \frac{V_{1}^{2} - V_{2}^{2}}{2}$

Q/m = heat transfer = -2 Btu/lb

$V_{1}$ = 400 ft/s

$V_{2}$ = 100 ft/s

$\frac{W}{m} = -2 + (191.81 - 143.47) + \frac{400^{2} - 100^{2}}{2}*[tex]\frac{1}{2*32.2*778}$ [/tex] = -2 + 48.34 + 29.938 = 49.334 Btu/lb

(b) To calculate the exergy destruction, we will use the equation for exergy rate:

$\frac{E_{d} }{m} = [1-\frac{T_{o} }{T_{b} }](\frac{Q}{m}) - \frac{W}{m} + [(h_{1} - h_{2}) -T_{o}(s_{1} - s_{2}) + \frac{V^{2} _{1} - V_{2} ^{2}}{2}]$

The equation above is further simplified to:

$\frac{Ed}{m} = T_{o}[(s_{2} -s_{1}) - Rln\frac{P_{2} }{P_{1} } - \frac{Q/m}{T_{b} }]$

Using a reference temperature (To) = 500 °R

Average surface temperature (Tb = 620°R

$\frac{Ed}{m} = 500*[(0.6261 -0.6956) - (1.986/28.97)ln\frac{15 }{75 } - \frac{-2}{620}}]$

$\frac{E_{d} }{m}$ = 500*[-0.0695 +0.068688*1.609 +0.003225] = 22.12 Btu/lb
