Answer:

Given that,

Mass of the Earth m

=6×10

Mass of the Moon m

=7.4×10

Distance between the Earth and the Moon d=3.84×10

km=3.84×10

Gravitational Constant G=6.7×10

−11

/kg

Now, by using Newton’s law of gravitation

(3.84×10

)

6.7×10

−11

×6×10

×7.4×10

14.8225×10

297.48×10

F=20.069×10

F=20.1×10

Hence, the gravitational force of attraction is 20.1×10

ListenA bicycle and its rider have a combined mass of 80. kilograms and a speed of 6.0 meters per second. What is the magnitude

Setler [38]

Answer:

a) $1.2\times 10^2\ N$

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

a = Acceleration

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v-u}{t}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{0-6}{4}\\\Rightarrow a=-1.5\ m/s^2$

The acceleration of the bicycle and rider is -1.5 m/s²

Force

$F=ma\\\Rightarrow F=80\times -1.5\\\Rightarrow F=-120\ N=-1.2\times 10^2\ N$

The magnitude of the average force needed to bring the bicycle and its rider to a stop is $1.2\times 10^2\ N$

In order to place a satellite into orbit, it requires enough fuel to supply the necessary mechanical energy. Into what types of

nexus9112 [7]

When a satellite is revolving into the orbit around a planet then we can say

net centripetal force on the satellite is due to gravitational attraction force of the planet, so we will have

$F_g = F_c$

$\frac{GM_pM_s}{r^2} = \frac{M_s v^2}{r}$

now we can say that kinetic energy of satellite is given as

$KE = \frac{1}{2}M_s v^2$

$KE = \frac{GM_sM_p}{2r}$

also we know that since satellite is in gravitational field of the planet so here it must have some gravitational potential energy in it

so we will have

$U = -\frac{GM_sM_p}{r}$

so we can say that energy from the fuel is converted into kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy of the satellite
