Answer:

R = 98304.75 m = 98.3 km

Explanation:

The density of an object is given as the ratio between the mass of that object and the volume occupied by that object.

Density = Mass/Volume

Now, it is given that the density of Earth has become:

Density = 1 x 10⁹ kg/m³

Mass = Mass of Earth (Constant) = 5.97 x 10²⁴ kg

Volume = 4/3πR³ (Volume of Sphere)

R = Radius of Earth = ?

Therefore,

1 x 10⁹ kg/m³ = (5.97 x 10²⁴ kg)/[4/3πR³]

4/3πR³ = (5.97 x 10²⁴ kg)/(1 x 10⁹ kg/m³)

R³ = (3/4)(5.97 x 10¹⁵ m³)/π

R = ∛[0.95 x 10¹⁵ m³]

<u>R = 98304.75 m = 98.3 km</u>

An adult elephant has a mass of about 5.0 tons. An adult elephant shrew has a mass of about 50 grams. How far r from the center
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

2023857702.507m

Explanation:

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

recall from newton's law of gravitation

G=gravitational constant

mshew=50g

melephant=5*10^3kg

rearth=radius of the earth 6400km or 6400000m

mearth= masss of the earth

Gm(shrew)m(earth)/r(earth)^2 = Gm(elephant)m(earth)/r^2

strike out the left hand side and right hand side variables

m(shrew)/r(earth)^2 = m(elephant)/r^2

r^2 = m(elephant).r(earth)^2 / m(shrew)       .........make r^2 the subject of the equation

r^2=(5*10^{3} *(6400000)^{2} )/.05

r^2=40960000000000

r=2023857702.507m
