Physics help please ;-; . An astronaut has a mass of 82.0 kg. What is the astronaut's stationary weight at a position 4230 kilom

eters above Earth's surface? Note: Earth's radius is 6380 km and the Earth's mass is 5.972 x 1024 kg.
Two rocks, each of mass 72 kg, are positioned 95 m away from each other in deep space. What is the magnitude of the gravitational attraction between them?

if at the least explain how id work it out.​

Answer:

F = G*\frac{m_{1} * m_{2} }{r^2}

Explanation:

Just find the force of gravity.

1) m1 is the mass of earth, m2 is mass of astronaut. r is the earth's radius + astronaut's position in meters. G is the universal constant of gravity.

2) Same as above. m1 is 72 kg, m2 is 72 kg, r is 95 m and G is gravitational constant.

A ball is tossed vertically upward. When it reaches its highest point (before falling back downward) Group of answer choices the
nignag [31]

Answer:

the velocity is zero, the acceleration is directed downward, and the force of gravity acting on the ball is directed downward

Explanation:

Is this exercise in kinematics

          v = v₀ - g t

where g is the acceleration of the ball, which is created by the attraction of the ball to the Earth.

At the highest point

velocity must be zero.

The acceleration depends on the Earth therefore it is constant at this point and with a downward direction.

The force of the earth on the ball is towards the center of the Earth, that is, down

all other alternatives are wrong

A sphere of volume 1.20×10−3m3 hangs from a cable. When the sphere is completely submerged in water, the tension in the cable is
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

B = 62.9 N

Explanation:

This is an exercise on Archimedes' principle, where the thrust force equals the weight of the  liquid

         B = ρ g V

write the equilibrium equation

         T + B -W = 0

         B = W- T               (1)

use the density to write the weight

         ρ = m / V

        m = ρ V

         W = ρ g V

substitute in  1

         B = m g -T

         B = \rho_{body} g V - T

To finish the calculation, the density of the material must be known, suppose it is steel  \rho_{body} = 7850 kg / m³

calculate

         B = 7850 9.8 1.20 10⁻³ - 29.4

          B = 92.3 - 29.4

          B = 62.9 N

If a bar of copper is brought near a magnet, the copper bar will be
Alecsey [184]
It will be unaffected by the magnet because it has no magnetic field. If you were to maybe have electricity going through it is the only way it would have anything to do with the magnet.

A person spins a tennis ball on a string in a horizontal circle (so that the axis of rotation is vertical). At the point indicat
Ilya [14]

Answer:

direction does the axis of rotation tilt toward after the blow is the z- direction

Explanation:

This is because

Due to the blow, there is a impulse imparted on the ball which gives a change in linear momentum () in the x direction

Thus When cross product of momentum in x direction is taking with r vector, we will get resultant in z direction. Hence change in angular momentum will be z direction.

Emf e = 11
r 1 = 3.0
r 2 = 3.0
r 3 = ?

The two in parallel are equivalent to 3 • 3/6 = 1.5 Ω 
To have 2.4 volts across them, the current is I = 2.4/1.5 = 1.6 amps. and the unknown R = (11–2.4) / 1.6 = 5.375 Ω or 5.4 Ω
