Answer:

Explanation:

The gravitational force equation is

$F_g=\frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}$ where G is the gravitational constant. Filling in with what we are given and what we know to be true:

$F_g=\frac{6.67*10^{-11}(59)(59)}{(2.0)^2}$ which, when you do the math, comes out to be

$F_g=5.8*10^{-8}N$ , choice A.

So, what is a force? A force is a push or a pull exerted on one object from another. Forces make things move. You can make something start or stop when you push or pull an object.

There are many different types of forces in action in football. A player kicking a football is a force that makes the football fly through the air. A quarterback throwing a football is another example of a force that makes the football fly in a game.

When studying the concept of force, we can look to history to find mathematical principles that guide the laws of motion. Sir Isaac Newton was one of the most famous scientists of the 17th century to study the laws of forces and motion. Through careful study of how objects react to various forces, Newton developed the Three Laws of Motion. Below are explanations of each law and how these laws can be applied to football.

Problem 4: a long wire carries current towards east. a positive charge moves westward and just north from the wire. what is the

Alex787 [66]

The direction of the force experienced by the positive charge is upward.

We can use the right-hand rule to understand the direction of the Lorentz force acting on the charge: let's put the thumb in the same direction of the current in the wire (eastward), while the other fingers "wrap themselves" around the wire. These other fingers give the direction of the Lorentz force in every point of the space around the wire. Since the charge is located north of the wire, in that point the fingers are directed upward, so the positive charge experiences a force directed upward.
(if it was a negative charge, we should have taken the opposite direction)
