A 60.-kilogram physics student would weigh 1560

Physics
1 answer:
rosijanka [135]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

26m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the student  = 60kg

Weight  = 1560N

Unknown:

Acceleration due to gravity  = ?

Solution:

Weight is a force on a body due to gravity;

  Weight  = mass x gravity

   

Insert the given parameters and solve;

    1560  = 60 x gravity

    Gravity  = \frac{1560}{60}   = 26m/s²

In a lab, a student drags a shoe across the floor at constant speed. If the coefficient of static friction between the floor and
Svetllana [295]
<span>B) 0.6 N
   I suspect you have a minor error in your question. Claiming a coefficient of static friction of 0.30N is nonsensical. Putting the Newton there is incorrect. The figure of 0.25 for the coefficient of kinetic friction looks OK. So with that correction in mind, let's solve the problem. The coefficient of static friction is the multiplier to apply to the normal force in order to start the object moving. And the coefficient of kinetic friction (which is usually smaller than the coefficient of static friction) is the multiplied to the normal force in order to keep the object moving. You've been given a normal force of 2N, so you need to multiply the coefficient of static friction by that in order to get the amount of force it takes to start the shoe moving. So: 0.30 * 2N = 0.6N And if you look at your options, you'll see that option "B" matches exactly.</span>

Determine the acceleration due to gravity for low Earth orbit (LEO) given: MEarth = 6.00 x 1024 kg, rEarth = 6.40 x 106 m, G = 6
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

The answer to the question is as follows

The  acceleration due to gravity for low for orbit is  9.231 m/s²

Explanation:

The gravitational force is given as

F_{G}= \frac{Gm_{1} m_{2}}{r^{2} }

Where F_{G} = Gravitational force

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67×10⁻¹¹\frac{Nm^{2} }{kg^{2} }

m₁ = mEarth = mass of Earth = 6×10²⁴ kg

m₂ = The other mass which is acted upon by  F_{G} and = 1 kg

rEarth = The distance between the two masses = 6.40 x 10⁶ m

therefore at a height of 400 km above the erth we have

r = 400 + rEarth = 400 + 6.40 x 10⁶ m = 6.80 x 10⁶ m

and  F_{G} = \frac{6.67*10^{-11} *6.40*10^{24} *1}{(6.8*10^{6})^{2} } = 9.231 N

Therefore the acceleration due to gravity =  F_{G} /mass  

9.231/1 or 9.231 m/s²

Therefore the acceleration due to gravity at 400 kn above the Earth's surface is  9.231 m/s²
