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

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

What is the density of a substance that has a mass of 453g and a volume of 224mL?
Mrrafil [7]
Density is mass per unit volume. In this case, the unit is g/ml
Mass=453g                              ρ=453g/224ml
Volume=224ml                         ρ=2.022g/ml(rounded to nearest hundredth)
Density=?
ρ=mass/volume
Therefore the density of the substance is 2.022g/ml

In what factors sound can be heard​
MariettaO [177]

Explanation:

Loudness of sound is a measure of response of sound to our ear. Loudness of sound is not simply the energy reaching the human ear, but it also tells about the sensitivity of human ear detecting this energy. Loudness of sound is measured in decibel (dB). As energy reaching the ear depends on square of amplitude, loudness of sound depends on various factors namely,

(i) Amplitude of sound waves

(ii) Sensitivity of ear

(iii) Distance from the source of the sound and the listener.

Because of interstellar dust, astronomers can see at most about 5 kpc into the disk of the galaxy at visual wavelengths. What pe
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

96%

Explanation

Let A the total area of the galaxy, is modeled as a disc:

A = πR^2 = π (25 kpc)^2

And let a be the area that astronomers are able to see:

a = πr^2 = π(5 kpc)^2

The percentage that can be seen is equal to 100 times the ratio of the areas, of the galaxy and the "visible" part:

P = 100 a/A = (5/25)^2 = 100/25 = 4%

Therefore, the percentage of the galaxy not included, i.e. not seen is:

(100-4)% = 96%

why does diving 30m below sea level affect our bodies more than being in a building 30m above sea level
Genrish500 [490]
Imagine you are in a swimming pool 30m deep. Assuming you know that water is denser than air, you would know that the 30m of water above you will carry more weight, and press down on your body. Say you were in a swimming pool 60m deep, you would be sandwiched between 30m of water pressing down on you, and the upthrust created by the 30m of water below you.

In a building 30m up, the pressure will be regulated, as you are in a building. The floor will be strong enough to support the weight of the body, and the body will not recoil into itself.
