Four objects are situated along the y axis as follows: a 1.99-kg object is at 2.99 m, a 2.96-kg object is at 2.57 m, a 2.43-kg o

bject is at the origin, and a 3.96-kg object is at -0.502 m. Where is the center of mass of these objects

Answer:

The center of mass for the object is  y_c = 1.063 \  m from the origin

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The mass of the first object is  m_1 =  1.99 \  kg

   The position of first object with respect to origin y_1 =  2.99 \ m

   The mass of the second object is  m_2 =  2.96 \  kg

   The position of second object with respect to origin y_2 =  2.57 \ m

   The mass of the third object is  m_3 =  2.43  \  kg

   The position of third object with respect to origin y_3 =  0 \ m

   The mass of the fourth object is  m_3 =  3.96  \  kg

   The position of fourth object with respect to origin y_3 =  -0.502  \ m

Generally the center of mass of the object along the x-axis is  zero  because all the mass lie on the y axis

Generally the location of the center mass of the object is mathematically represented as

    y_c = \frac{m_1 * y_1 + m_2 * y_2 + m_3 * y_3 + m_4 * y_4}{m_1 + m_2 + m_3 + m_4}

=>y_c = \frac{1.99 * 2.99 + 2.96 * 2.57 + 2.43 * 0 + 3.96 * (-0.502)}{1.99+ 2.96  + 2.43 + 3.96}

=>y_c = 1.063 \  m

If you weigh 690 N on the earth, what would be your weight on the surface of a neutron star that has the same mass as our sun an
lana [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of star M(star) = 1.99×10^30kg

Gravitational constant G

G = 6.67×10^−11 N⋅m²/kg²

Diameter d = 25km

d = 25,000m

R = d/2 = 25,000/2

R = 12,500m

Weight w = 690N

Then, the person mass which is constant can be determined using

W =mg

m = W/g

m = 690/9.81

m = 70.34kg

The acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the neutron star is can be determined using

g(star) = GM(star)/R²

g(star) = 6.67×10^-11 × 1.99×10^30 / 12500²

g (star) = 8.49 × 10¹¹ m/s²

Then, the person weight on neutron star is

W = mg

Mass is constant, m = 70.34kg

W = 70.34 × 8.49 × 10¹¹

W = 5.98 × 10¹³ N

The weight of the person on neutron star is 5.98 × 10¹³ N

If you run at an average speed of 10mi/h how long will it take for you to run 2.5miles
givi [52]

Answer:

If the avg speed is 10mi/h and you want to know how long it will take to run 2.5mi/h you put that as a ratio 2.5/10 which is 1/4 of an hour so it will take 15 minutes to run 2.5 miles
