Answer:

<h2>230476.19km</h2>

Explanation:

Step one:

given

Force F= 210N

mass m= 1600kg

velocity v=5500m/s

Step two

Required is the radius r

the expression for the force is

F_c = \frac{mv^2}{r}

substitute

210=1600*5500^2/r

cross multiply we have

210r=48400000000

divide both side by 210

r=230476190.476m

r=230476.19km

A 39.7 n object is in free fall. what is the magnitude of the net force which acts on the object? answer in units of n.
Vika [28.1K]
If there is no air resistance, the value would still be the same. So therefore, the answer is 39.7 N.
Supposing that there is an air resistance of 19.8 N.With a 19.8 N air resistance: ∑F = 39.7 N - 19.8 N = 19.9 N would be the net force. The important point here is that the force of gravity equivalent the weight of the object.
