Answer:

F = G  \frac{2 m^{2} }{r^{2} }

action and reaction forces with the same magnitude, but in the opposite direction, one applied to each body.

Explanation:

The force between the asteroids is given by the law of universal gravitation

           F = G m₁ m₂ / r²

in this case they give us the mass of each asteroid

           m₁ = m

           m₂ = 2m

we substitute

           F = G m 2m / r²

           F = G 2 m² / r²

            F = G  \frac{2 m^{2} }{r^{2} }

Let's analyze this expression, this is the force that one asteroid exerts on the other, therefore there are two forces, one applied to each asteroid, as the order of the products does not affect the result, the magnitude of the force is the same on each asteroid.

These are action and reaction forces with the same magnitude, but in the opposite direction, one applied to each body.

Consequently the two asteroid experiences the same magnitude of force

During a compression at a constant pressure of 290 Pa, the volume of an ideal gas decreases from 0.62 m3 to 0.21 m3. The initial
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

a) -41.1 Joule

b) 108.38 Kelvin

Explanation:

Pressure = P = 290 Pa

Initial volume of gas = V₁ = 0.62 m³

Final volume of gas = V₂ = 0.21 m³

Initial temperature of gas = T₁ = 320 K

Heat loss = Q = -160 J

Work done = PΔV

⇒Work done = 290×(0.21-0.62)

⇒Work done = -118.9 J

a) Change in internal energy = Heat - Work

ΔU = -160 -(-118.9)

⇒ΔU = -41.1 J

∴ Change in internal energy is -41.1 J

b) V₁/V₂ = T₁/T₂

⇒T₂ = T₁V₂/V₁

⇒T₂ = 320×0.21/0.62

⇒T₂ = 108.38 K

∴ Final temperature of the gas is 108.38 Kelvin

How much work is required to lift a 2 kg mass to a height of 10 meters?
scoray [572]
Use the equation potential energy =m*g*h
m-mass,
g-gravitational acceleration,
h-height
Potential energy = 2*10*10
=200
