How would the gravitational force between the earth and the moon change if the moon had half the mass?

Physics
1 answer:
Vikki [24]3 years ago
5 0

The moon's gravity, combined with the waltz of Earth and the moon around their center of mass, forces the oceans into an oval shape, with two simultaneous high tides. ... If the moon were half its mass, then the ocean tides would have been correspondingly smaller and imparted less energy to it.

A 286-kg motorcycle is accelerating up along a ramp that is inclined 31.6° above the horizontal. The propulsion force pushing th
kkurt [141]

Answer:

The acceleration motorcycle

a = 5.13 m / s²

Explanation:

Now to determine the acceleration of the motorcycle

Use the force to analysis motion

∑ F = m * a

∑ F = E - D - m*g * sin ( β ) = m * a

E = 3168 N

D = 230 N

β = 31.6 °

3168 N - 230 N - 286 kg * 9.8 m / s² * sin ( 31.6° ) = 286 kg * a

Now solve to a'

a = [ 3168 N - 230 N - 286 kg * 9.8  m / s² * sin ( 31.6° ) ] / (286 kg)

a = 5.13 m / s²

In a binary star system, an unseen component is found to have 8 solar masses. It would be visible if the system were a normal st
maksim [4K]

Answer:

Black Hole

Explanation:

A black hole is a very dense and massive stellar object, which has a field of gravity so large that not even light can escape it.

Since it does not emit light, <u>we cannot see them directly</u>, hence the name of black hole.

So in this case,<u> if the object has a mass of 8 solar masses that is enough to form a black hole</u>, and <u>also cannot be seen</u>, all of this indicates that the object we are talking about is a black hole.

It should be mentioned that although these objects do not emit light, because it cannot escape due to the immense force of gravity, black holes can be detected by a type of radiation emitted on their event horizon due to quantum effects called Hawking radiation .
