Answer:

a)    Fa = G m2 [M / r² - m / (d-r)²]  

b) r2 = 31 10⁶ m

Explanation:

The equation of the law of universal gravitation is

            F = G m1 m1/ r²

The value of the gravitation constant is 6.67 10-11 N m²/kg². This force is always attractive.

Let's calculate the value of that force on the spacecraft, add the strength

Earth's force to the ship

            F1 = G M m2 / r²

The moon force ship

            F2 = G m m2 / (d-r)²

Total force is

            Fa = F1 — F2

            Fa = G M M2 / r² - G m m2 / (d-r)²

            Fa = G m2 [M / r² - m / (d-r)²]

This is the force on the spaceship

b)  Let's look for the point where the force is zero, for this we can see that the value of the bracket must be zero

           Fa = 0

           [M / r² - m / (d-r)²] = 0

            M / r² = m / (d-r)²

           (d-r)² = m/M   r²

           d² -2rd + r² - m/M   r² = 0

           r² [m/M - 1] + r 2d - d² = 0

This is a second degree equation for r, we solve the to find the results.

           r = {-2d ±√[4d² - 4 [m/M -1] (-d²)]} / (2 [m/M-1])

           r = {-2d ± √ [4d² (1 + (m/M-1)]} / 2(m/M-1)

           r = {-2d ± 2d √(m/M)}  / (2(m/M-1))

           r = 2d {-1 ± √(m/M)} / 2(m/M-1)

           r = d [-1 ± √(m/M)] /  (m/M-1)

To find the explicit value we substitute the values ​​that we can find in tables

          m = 7.36 1022 kg

          M = 5.98 1024 kg

          d = 380000 km (1000m / 1 km) = 380 10⁶ m

          r = 380 10⁶ [-1 ±√(7.36 10²² / 5.98 10²⁴)] /(7.36 10²² / 5.98 / 10²⁴ -1)

          r = 380 10⁶ [-1 - √ (1.23 10²)] / (123-1)

          r = 380 106 [-1 ± 11] / 122

 

          r1 = 380 10⁶ 10/122 = 380 10⁶ 0.08197

          r1 =  31 10⁶ m

          r2 = 380 106 [-12/122] = 380 10 6 0.09836

          r2 = -37 10⁶ m

The correct distance is the positive r2 = 31 10⁶ m

c) let's use Newton's second law, to find the acceleration in the spacecraft

 

          F = m a

          a = Fa / m2 = G m2 [M / r² - m / (d-r)²] / m2

          a = G [M/r² - m/(d-r)²]

Since we have acceleration, we can use the definition of kinematics

           a = dv / dt = dv / dr dr / dt = dv / dr v

           v dv = a dr

           v dV = G [M /r² - m /(d-r)²] dr

We integrate

            ½ (V² - Vo²) = G [M (-1 /r) -m (1 / (d-r)

We evaluate between the initial point where we can assume that the initial velocity is zero for the Xo position and the final point with velocity v at the points

            V² = 2G [M (1 / Xo - 1 /X) - m (1 / (d-X) - 1 /(d-xo)]

            V² = [-M /X -m /(d-X)] 2G + constant

We now use the definition of speed

            v = dx / dt

            dx = V dt

We substitute, perform the integral and simplify, if we can make the constant zero

             dx = √([-M / X -m / (d-X)] 2G) dt

             dx / √([-M / X -m / (d-X)] 2G = dt

When a man walks across the carpet and reaches for the door knob, why does he get shocked? doorknob Question 3 options: There is
Mumz [18]

The imbalance of electric charges within or on the surface of a material or between materials is known as static electricity. When you grab a doorknob, electrons jump from your hand to the knob .which conducts electricity, giving you a shock.

<h3>What is static electricity?</h3>

The imbalance of electric charges within or on the surface of a material or between materials is known as static electricity.

The charge will persist until it can be moved away by an electric current or an electrical discharge.

when we walk on the carpet with socks our feet slide electrons off the carpet.  it leads to leaving you with a slightly negative static charge.

When you grab a doorknob electrons jump from your hand to the knob which conducts electricity giving you a shock.

Due to the static electricity jump from your hand to the knob .which conducts electricity giving you a shock.

The following is regarding Momentum Change and Force. help is needed please!
mixer [17]

The distance travelled  is 10 m and the velocity gained at the end of this time is 2 m/s.

<h3>Velocity of the object at the end of the time</h3>

F = mv/t

where;

  • m is mass of the object
  • v is velocity of the object
  • t is time

Ft = mv

v = Ft/m

v = (50 x 10)/250

v = 2 m/s

<h3>Distance traveled by the object</h3>

v² = u² + 2as

where;

u is initial velocity = 0

a is acceleration

a = F/m

a = 50 N/ 250 kg

a = 0.2 m/s²

v² = 0 + 2as

s = v²/2a

s = (2²)/(2 x 0.2)

s = 10 m

Thus, the distance travelled  is 10 m and the velocity gained at the end of this time is 2 m/s.

Explain how the zodiacal constellations are different from the other constellations.
Temka [501]

Answer:

They lie on the Ecliptic (apparent path of the Sun around Earth)

Explanation:

There are total 88 constellations in the sky out of which only 12 are considered as zodiacal constellations or Sun signs. This is because these are the constellations which lie on the Ecliptic.

Ecliptic is the apparent path of Sun around the Earth.

In other words, it can be said that the Sun appears to reside in 12 constellations throughout the year as the Earth revolves around it.

Speed of violet light in vacuum
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

Explanation: Light travels at approximately 300,000 kilometers per second in a vacuum, which has a refractive index of 1.0, but it slows down to 225,000 kilometers per second in water (refractive index of 1.3; see Figure 2) and 200,000 kilometers per second in glass (refractive index of 1.5).
