Answer: (a)F=7(10)^{-7}N

              (b)F=1.344(10)^{-6}N  

              (c) The force of Jupiter on the baby is slightly greater than the the force of the father on the baby.

Explanation:

According to the law of universal gravitation, which is a classical physical law that describes the gravitational interaction between different bodies with mass:

F=G\frac{m_{1}m_{2}}{r^2}   (1)

Where:

F is the module of the force exerted between both bodies

G is the universal gravitation constant and its value is 6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}}

m_{1} and m_{2} are the masses of both bodies.

r is the distance between both bodies

Knowing this, let's begin with the answers:

<h2 /><h2>(a) Gravitational force Father exertes on baby</h2>

Using equation (1) and taking into account the mass of the father m_{1}=100kg, the mass of the baby m_{2}=4.20kg and the distance between them r=0.2m, the force F_{F}  exerted by the father is:

F_{F}=6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}}\frac{(100kg)(4.20kg)}{(0.2m)^2}   (2)

F_{F}=0.0000007N=7(10)^{-7}N   (3)

<h2>(b) Gravitational force Jupiter exertes on baby</h2>

Using again equation (1) but this time taking into account the mass of Jupiter m_{J}=1.898(10)^{27}kg, the mass of the baby m_{2}=4.20kg and the distance between Jupiter and Earth (where the baby is) r_{E}=6.29(10)^{11}m, the force F_{J}  exerted by the Jupiter is:

F_{J}=6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}}\frac{(1.898(10)^{27}kg)(4.20kg)}{(6.29(10)^{11}m)^2}   (4)

F_{J}=0.000001344N=1.344(10)^{-6}N   (5)

<h2>(c) Comparison</h2>

Now, comparing both forces:

F_{J}=0.000001344N=1.344(10)^{-6}N   and F_{F}=0.0000007N=7(10)^{-7}N  we can see F_{J} is greater than F_{F}. However, the difference is quite small as well as the force exerted on the baby.

Alex, parked by the side of an east-west road, is watching car P, which is moving in a westerly direction. Barbara, driving east
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

v_{PB} = 130\ km/h

Explanation:

Since, Alex is at rest. Therefore, the speed measured by him will be the absolute speed of car P. Therefore, taking easterly direction as positive:

Absolute\ Velocity\ of\ Car\ P = v_{P} = -78\ km/h

And the absolute velocity of Barbara's Car is given as:Absolute\ Velocity\ of\ Barbara's\ Car = v_{B} = 52\ km/h

Now, for the velocity of Car p with respect to the velocity of Barbara's Car can be given s follows:

Velocity\ of\ Car\ P\ measured\ by\ Barbara = v_{PB} = v_{B}-v_{P}\\\\v_{PB} = 52\ km/h-(-78\ km/h)

v_{PB} = 130\ km/h

An elevator motor in a high-rise building can do 3500 kJ of work in 5 min. Find the power developed by the motor. Explain if you
Ilya [14]

Answer:

P = 11666.6 W

Explanation:

Given that,

Work done by the motor, W = 3500 kJ

Time, t = 5 min = 300 s

We need to find the power developed by the motor. Power developed is given by :

P=\dfrac{E}{t}\\\\P=\dfrac{3500\times 10^3}{300}\\\\P=11666.7\ W

So, the required power is 11666.6 W.
