Answer:

━☆ﾟ.*･｡ﾟIf <em>the angle is the angle between the eastern axis and the vector, then the leg adjacent the angle is the x-component and the leg opposite the angle is the y-component. Thus, the cosine function is used to calculate the x-component and the sine function is used to calculate the y</em>

Calculate the force of gravity between planet X and planet y if both planets are 3.75 X 10^11 m apart, planet X has a mass of 1.

GenaCL600 [577]

So, the force of gravity that the asteroid and the planet have on each other approximately $\boxed{\sf{2.9 \times 10^{17} \: N}}$

<h3>Introduction</h3>

Hi ! Now, I will help to discuss about the gravitational force between two objects. The force of gravity is not affected by the radius of an object, but radius between two object. Moreover, if the object is a planet, the radius of the planet is only to calculate the "gravitational acceleration" on the planet itself,does not determine the gravitational force between the two planets. For the gravitational force between two objects, it can be calculated using the following formula :

$\boxed{\sf{\bold{F = G \times \frac{m_1 \times m_2}{r^2}}}}$

With the following condition :

F = gravitational force (N)
G = gravity constant ≈ $\sf{6.67 \times 10^{-11}}$ N.m²/kg²
$\sf{m_1}$ = mass of the first object (kg)
$\sf{m_2}$ = mass of the second object (kg)
r = distance between two objects (m)

<h3>Problem Solving</h3>

We know that :

G = gravity constant ≈ $\sf{6.67 \times 10^{-11}}$ N.m²/kg²
$\sf{m_X}$ = mass of the planet X = $\sf{1.55 \times 10^{22}}$ kg.
$\sf{m_Y}$ = mass of the planet Y = $\sf{3.95 \times 10^{28}}$ kg.
r = distance between two objects = $\sf{3.75 \times 10^{11}}$ m.

What was asked :

F = gravitational force = ... N

Step by step :

$\sf{F = G \times \frac{m_X \times m_Y}{r^2}}$

$\sf{F = 6.67 \cdot 10^{-11} \times \frac{1.55 \cdot 10^{22} \cdot 3.95 \times 10^{28}}{(3.75 \times 10^{11})^2}}$

$\sf{F \approx \frac{40.84 \times 10^{-11 + 22 + 28}}{14.0625 \times 10^{22}}}$

$\sf{F \approx 2.9 \times 10^{39 - 22}}$

$\sf{F \approx 2.9 \times 10^{17} \: N}$

<h3>Conclusion</h3>

So, the force of gravity that the asteroid and the planet have on each other approximately

$\boxed{\sf{2.9 \times 10^{17} \: N}}$

Thinking about the winter we missed out on this year. Calvin and his tiger go sledding down a snowy hill. There is friction betw

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

a) W=0, b) Work is negative, c) work is positive and scientific energy variation is positive, d) the variation of the potential enrgy is negative,

e) total work is positive

Explanation:

Work in physics is defined by the scalar scalar product of force by displacement

W = F. dx

The bold are vectors; this can be written in the form of the mules of the quantities

W = F dx cos θ

where θ is the angle between force and displacement.

a) The normal force is perpendicular to the inclined plane which is perpendicular to the displacement, therefore the angle is

θ = 90 cos 90 = 0

W=0

In conclusion the work is zero

b) The friction force opposes the displacement whereby the angle is

θ = 180 cos 190 = -1

W = - fr d

Work is negative

c) To calculate the change in kinetic energy we use that the work is equal to the variation of the kinetic energy

m g sin θ L = ΔK

this magnitude is positive since the angle is zero cos 0 = 1

how the system starts from rest ΔK = Kf -K₀= + Kf -0

work is positive and scientific energy variation is positive

d) change in potential energy

The potential energy is is ΔU = Uf -U₀

we fix the reference system in the bases of the plane so Uf = 0

ΔU = -U₀

the variation of the potential enrgy is negative

e) The total work is formed by the work of the weight component, the work of the friction force

W_Total = W_weight - W_roce

as the body moves down

W_Total> 0

Therefore the total work is positive

Newton’s second law states that the acceleration a of an object is proportional to the force F acting on it is inversely proport

netineya [11]

Answer:

$[F]=[MLT^{-2}]$

Explanation:

Newton’s second law states that the acceleration a of an object is proportional to the force F acting on it is inversely proportional to its mass m. The mathematical expression for the second law of motion is given by :

F = m × a

F is the applied force

m is the mass of the object

a is the acceleration due to gravity

We need to find the dimensions of force. The dimension of force m and a are as follows :

$[m]=[M]$

$[a]=[LT^{-2}]$

So, the dimension of force F is, $[F]=[MLT^{-2}]$ . Hence, this is the required solution.
