Three identical very dense masses of 7500 kg each are placed on the x axis. One mass is at x1 = -100 cm , one is at the origin,
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

0.00354 (N)

Explanation:

Convert to metric system:

x_1 = -100 cm = 1 m

x_2 = 420 cm = 4.2 m

Formula for gravitational force:

F_g = G\frac{mM}{s^2}

where s is the distance between 2 bodies masses m and M

Substitute the number to the formula above and since the 2 forces are acting in opposite direction, the total net gravitational force on the mass of origin be:

F_g = F_{g1} - F_{g2}

F_g = G\frac{m_1M}{x_1^2} - G\frac{m_2M}{x_2^2}

F_g = GM(\frac{m_1}{x_1^2} - \frac{m_2}{x_2^2})

F_g = 6.67*10^{-11} * 7500 (\frac{7500}{1^2} - \frac{7500}{4.2^2})

F_g = 5*10^{-7}(7500 - 425.17)

F_g = 5*10^{-7} * 7074.83

F_g = 0.00354 (N)

Radiant heat makes it impossible to stand close to a hot lava flow. Calculate the rate of heat loss by radiation from 1.00 m^2 o
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

259.274 kW

Explanation:

Given:

Area of the lava, A = 1.00 m²

Temperature of the surrounding, T₁ = 30.0° C = 303 k

Temperature of the lava, T₂ = 1190° C = 1463 K

emissivity, e = 1

Now,

from the Stefan-Boltzmann law of radiation the rate of heat loss is given as,

u = σeA(T₂⁴ - T₁⁴)

where,

u = rate of heat loss

σ = Stefan-Boltzmann constant =  5.67 × 10⁻⁸ W/m²∙K⁴

on substituting the respective values, we get

u = 5.67 × 10⁻⁸ × 1 × 1 × (1463⁴ - 303⁴)

or

u = 259274.957 W

or

u = 259.274 kW
