The gravitational field at the Moon in N/kg due to the Earth is approximately (G = 6.67 × 10-11 N m2/kg2, the mass of the Earth

is 5.98 × 1024 kg, and the distance to the Moon is 3.85 × 108 m)

Answer:

F = 2.69 10⁻³ m   [ N]

Explanation:

This exercise asks to calculate the gravitational field of the Earth on the lunar surface, let's use the universal gravitation law

          F = G m M / r²

where m is the mass of the body, M the mass of the Earth and r the distance between the Earth and the Moon

         F = (G M / r²) m

         F = (6.67 10⁻¹¹ 5.98 10²⁴ / (3.85 10⁸)² ) m

         F = 2.69 10⁻³ m   [ N]

This force is directed from the Moon towards the Earth, therefore it reduces the weight of the body

Suppose that a charged particle of diameter 1.00 micrometer moves with constant speed in an electric field of magnitude 1.00×105
Dovator [93]
It's a bit of a trick question, had the same one on my homework. You're given an electric field strength (1*10^5 N/C for mine), a drag force (7.25*10^-11 N) and the critical info is that it's moving with constant velocity(the particle is in equilibrium/not accelerating). 
<span>All you need is F=(K*Q1*Q2)/r^2 </span>
<span>Just set F=the drag force and the electric field strength is (K*Q2)/r^2, plugging those values in gives you </span>
<span>(7.25*10^-11 N) = (1*10^5 N/C)*Q1 ---> Q1 = 7.25*10^-16 C </span>

What is the difference between heat exhaustion and heat stroke?
balu736 [363]
I believe the answer is D, Heat exhaustion involves a lack of sweating, while heat stroke involves extreme sweating. Also just to add the on if heat exhaustion is left untreated then it could turn into a heat stroke.
