Answer:

4.356e-6 Newtons

Explanation:

Using the equation for the force of gravity F= $\frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}$ . The two masses are m1=800kg and m2=1000 kg. The value of G, the gravitational constant =6.67e-11. The problem states the distance between the center of masses of the two cars is 3.5 meters(r). Plugging in what we have from the problem, you will get 4.346e-6 newtons. This makes sense as gravity in itself is a weak force requiring extremely massive objects to result in a noticeable force.

Earning Goal: To be able to calculate work done by a constant force directed at different angles relative to displacement

lana [24]

Answer:

the work done by the 30N force is 4156.92 J.

For this problem, they don´t ask you to determine the work of the total force applied in the block. They only want the work done for the force of 30N, with an angle of 30º respectively of the displacement and a traveled distance of 160m. So:

W=F·s·cos(α)=30N·160m·cos(30º)=4156.92J
