Answer:

  63.4 °C

Explanation:

If we assume the "fixed points" are 0 °C and 100 °C, then the thermometer reading as a function of actual temperature can be described by a linear equation that must have (0, -0.5) and (100, 106) as solutions. We can use these points in the 2-point form of the equation for a line:

  y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1

  y = (106 -(-0.5))/(100 -0)(x -0) -0.5

  y = 106.5x -0.5

Then, for x = 60, the thermometer reading is expected to be ...

  y = 106.5×60 -0.5 = 63.4 . . . °C

Nitella [24]

Answer:

v=516526.9m/s

Explanation:

The force to which the object of mass <em>m</em> is attracted to a star of mass <em>M</em> while being at a distance <em>r</em> is:

F=\frac{GMm}{r^2}

Where G=6.67\times10^{-11}Nm^2/Kg^2 is the gravitational constant.

Also, Newton's 2nd Law tells us that this object subject by that force will experiment an acceleration given by <em>F=ma.</em>

We have then:

ma=\frac{GMm}{r^2}

Which means:

a=\frac{GM}{r^2}

The object departs from rest (v_0=0m/s) and travels a distance <em>d</em>, under an acceleration <em>a</em>, we can calculate its final velocity with the formula v^2=v_0^2+2ad, which for our case will be:

v^2=2ad=\frac{2GMd}{r^2}

v=\sqrt{\frac{2GMd}{r^2}}

We assume <em>a</em> constant on the vecinity of the surface because d=0.025m is nothing compared with r=5\times10^3m. With our values then we have:

v=\sqrt{\frac{2GMd}{r^2}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(6.67\times10^{-11}Nm^2/Kg^2)(2\times10^{30}Kg)(0.025m)}{(5\times10^3m)^2}}=516526.9m/s
