To appreciate the strength of gravity, calculate the number of steel cables that would be required, in the absence of gravity, t

o hold the Moon in orbit about the Earth. Each cable has a cross-sectional area of 1 square meter, and the tensile strength of steel is 370 MPa.

Answer:

N=5.36*10^{17}

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Tensile strength of steel \sigma_c=370 MPa.=370*10^6

Cross-sectional area A= 1m^2

Generally the equation for Total Force is mathematically given by

 F = \frac{G M m}{r^2}

 F=\frac{6.67*10^{-11}*7.35*10^{22}*5.97*10^{24}}{(384*10^3)^2}

Since this is the force of each cable

 F=\sigma_c NA

 F= 370*10^6*N*1

Therefore

 370*10^6*N*1=\frac{6.67*10^{-11}*7.35*10^{22}*5.97*10^{24}}{(384*10^3)^2}

 N=5.36*10^{17}

a block measures 3.5 cm long 2.8 cm wide and 1.6 cm deep. the density of the block 2.5 g/cm. calculate the volume of the block.
luda_lava [24]
Volume of a block can be found by: length × width × height. So:

3.5cm × 2.8cm × 1.6cm = 15.68cm^3

A need the answers pleaseeeee
IRISSAK [1]

It's just asking you to sit down and COUNT the little squares in each sector.

It'll help you keep everything straight if you take a very sharp pencil and make a tiny dot in each square as you count it.  That way, you'll be able to see which ones you haven't counted yet, and also you won't count a square twice when you see that it already has a dot in it.

(If, by some chance, this is a picture of the orbit of a planet revolving around the sun ... as I think it might be ... then you should find that both sectors jhave the same number of squares.)

Dimensional Analysis : 3 days to seconds
LuckyWell [14K]
Hi,

To convert 3 days to seconds write this.

1h = 3600s
24h = 3600 · 24 = 86400
3 days = 3 · 86400 = 259200sec

Hope this helps.
