Assume that the average mass of each of the approximately 1 billion people in China is 55 kg.Assume that they all gather in one
Harman [31]

Answer: 5.9(10)^{-8} m

Explanation:

The equation to calculate the center of mass C_{M} of a particle system is:

C_{M}=\frac{m_{1}r_{1}+m_{1}r_{1}+...+m_{n}r_{n}}{m_{1}+m_{2}+...+m_{n}}

In this case we can arrange for one dimension, assuming the geometric center of the Earth and the ladder are on a line, and assuming original center of mass located at the Earth's geometric center:

C_{M}=\frac{m_{E}(0 m) + m_{p} r_{E-p}}{m_{E}+m_{p}}

Where:

m_{E}=5.9(10)^{24} kg is the mass of the Earth

m_{p}=55(10)^{9} kg is the mass of 1 billion people

r_{E}=6371000 m is the radius of the Earth

r_{E-p}=6371000 m- 2m=6370998 m is the distance between the center of the Earth and the position of the people (2 m above the Earth's surface)

C_{M}=\frac{m_{p}55(10)^{9} kg (6370998 m)}{5.9(10)^{24} kg+55(10)^{9} kg}

C_{M}=5.9(10)^{-8} m This is the displacement of Earth's center of mass from the original center.

How does the molecular structure of a water molecule affect its polarity?
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

The polarity of water molecules means that molecules of water will stick to each other like when unlike charges attracts. This is called hydrogen bonding.

Polarity makes water a good solvent, gives it the ability to stick to itself (cohesion), stick to other substances (adhesion), and have surface tension (due to hydrogen bonding).

When the two hydrogen atoms bond with the oxygen, they attach to the top of the molecule. This molecular structure gives the water molecule polarity, or a lopsided electrical charge that attracts other atoms. The end of the molecule with the two hydrogen atoms is positively charged.

If the range of a projectile's trajectory is six times larger than the height of the trajectory, then what was the angle of laun
zvonat [6]

Answer:

H = 1/2 g t^2    where t is time to fall a height H

H = 1/8 g T^2   where T is total time in air  (2 t  = T)

R = V T cos θ       horizontal range

3/4 g T^2 = V T cos θ       6 H = R    given in problem

cos θ = 3 g T / (4 V)           (I)

Now t = V sin θ / g     time for projectile to fall from max height

T = 2 V sin θ / g

T / V = 2 sin θ / g

cos θ = 3 g / 4 (T / V)     from (I)

cos θ = 3 g / 4 * 2 sin V / g = 6 / 4 sin θ

tan θ = 2/3      

θ = 33.7 deg

As a check- let V = 100 m/s

Vx = 100 cos 33.7 = 83,2

Vy = 100 sin 33,7 = 55.5

T = 2 * 55.5 / 9.8 = 11.3 sec

H = 1/2 * 9.8 * (11.3 / 2)^2 = 156

R = 83.2 * 11.3 = 932

R / H = 932 / 156 = 5.97        6 within rounding

What is the identity of a sample that has a volume of 92.5 cm3 and a mass of 249.8 g?
denpristay [2]
Here, We know, Density = Mass / Volume
Here, mass = 249.8 g
volume = 92.5 cm³

Substitute their values, 
d = 249.8 / 92.5
d = 2.7 g/cm³

In short, Your Answer would be "Aluminum" 

Hope this helps!
