Answer:

7327 kg or 7.3 tons

Explanation:

We have Newton formula for attraction force between 2 objects with mass and a distance between them:

F_G = G\frac{M_1M_2}{R^2}

where G =6.67408*10^{-11} m^3/kgs^2 is the gravitational constant on Earth. M = M_1 = M_2 is the masses of the 2 objects. and R = 2.6m is the distance between them.

F_G = 5.3*10^{-4}N is the attraction force.

5.3*10^{-4} = 6.67408*10^{-11}\frac{M^2}{2.6^2}

7941265 = \frac{M^2}{2.6^2}

M^2 = 53682948.76

M = \sqrt{53682948.76} \approx 7327 kg or 7.3 tons

A Pitot-static probe is used to measure the speed of an aircraft flying at 3000 m. If the differential pressure reading is 3300
adell [148]

Answer:

   v = 306.76 Km/h

Explanation:

given,

height of the aircraft = 3000 m

differential pressure reading = 3300 N/m²

density of air = 0.909 Kg/m³

speed of aircraft = ?

Assuming the air flowing above air craft is in-compressible, irrotational and steady so, we can use Bernoulli's equation to solve the problem.

using Bernoulli's equation

          \dfrac{v^2}{2} = \dfrac{\Delta P}{\rho}

where ρ is the density of the air at 3000 m

          v= \sqrt{\dfrac{2 \times \Delta P}{\rho}}

          v= \sqrt{\dfrac{2 \times 3300}{0.909}}

          v = \sqrt{7260.726}

                 v = 85.21 m/s

          v= 85.21 \times \dfrac{3600}{1000}

                 v = 306.76 Km/h

sweet [91]

Answer:

h = 18.75 m

Now when it will reach at point B then its normal force is just equal to ZERO

N_B = 0

F_n = 1.72 \times 10^4

Explanation:

Since we need to cross both the loops so least speed at the bottom must be

v = \sqrt{5 R g}

also by energy conservation this is gained by initial potential energy

mgh = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

v = \sqrt{2gh}

so we will have

\sqrt{2gh} = \sqrt{5Rg}

now we have

h = \frac{5R}{2}

here we have

R = 7.5 m

so we have

h = \frac{5(7.5)}{2}

h = 18.75 m

Now when it will reach at point B then its normal force is just equal to ZERO

N_B = 0

now when it reach point C then the speed will be

mgh - mg(2R_c) = \frac{1}{2]mv_c^2

v_c^2 = 2g(h - 2R_c)

v_c = 13.1 m/s

now normal force at point C is given as

F_n = \frac{mv_c^2}{R_c} - mg

F_n = \frac{700\times 13.1^2}{5} - (700 \times 9.8)

F_n = 1.72 \times 10^4

If the specific heat of a metal is 0.850 J/g °C, what is its atomic weight?
Liula [17]

As we know that with respect to oxygen atom taken as reference the product of atomic mass and specific heat of a metal will remain constant.

this product is equal to 0.38

so here we will say that let atomic mass of the metal is M

so with respect to oxygen atom its mass is given as

m = \frac{M}{16}

now we will have

\frac{M}{16} \times 0.850 = 0.38

now we will have

M = 7

so atomic mass of the metal is 7 g/mol
