Answer:

50 kg

Explanation:

Given,

Force ( F ) = 100 N

Acceleration ( a ) = 2 m/s^2

To find : Mass ( m ) = ?

Formula : -

F = ma

m = F / a

= 100 / 2

m = 50 kg

Therefore, the mass of the object is 50 kg.

NISA [10]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to energy conservation. Here we will use the conservation between the potential gravitational energy and the kinetic energy to determine the velocity of this escape. The gravitational potential energy can be expressed as,

$PE= \frac{GMm}{d}$

The kinetic energy can be written as,

$KE= \frac{1}{2} mv^2$

Where,

$G = 6.67*10^{-11}m^3/kg\cdot s^2$ Gravitational Universal Constant

$m = 5.972*10^{24}kg$ Mass of Earth

$h = 56*10^6m$ Height

$r = 6.378*10^6m$ Radius of Earth

From the conservation of energy:

$\frac{1}{2} mv^2 = \frac{GMm}{d}$

Rearranging to find the velocity,

$v = \sqrt{\frac{2Gm}{d}} \rightarrow$ Escape velocity at a certain height from the earth

If the height of the satellite from the earth is h, then the total distance would be the radius of the earth and the eight,

$d = r+h$

$v = \sqrt{\frac{2Gm}{r+h}}$

Replacing the values we have that

$v = \frac{2(6.67*10^{-11})(5.972*10^{24})}{6.378*10^6+56*10^6}$

$v = 3.6km/s$

Therefore the escape velocity is 3.6km/s

Answer:

$Q_a=330 cal$

$Q_w=6000cal$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Mass of the aluminum container 50 g

Mass of the container and water 250 g

Mass of the water 200 g

Initial temperature of the container and water 20°C

Temperature of the steam 100°C

Final temperature of the container, water, and condensed steam 50°C

Mass of the container, water, and condensed steam 261 g

Mass of the steam 11 g Specific heat of aluminum 0.22 cal/g°C

a) Heat energy on container

Generally the formula for mathematically solving heat gain

$Q_c=M_c *C_c*( \triangle T)$

Therefore imputing variables we have

$Q_a=50g *0.22*50-20$

$Q_a=330 cal$

b) Heat energy on water

Generally the formula for mathematically solving heat gain

$Q_w=M_w *C_w*( \triangle T)$

Therefore imputing variables we have

$Q_w=200 *1* 50-204$

$Q_w=6000cal$

What force is described as the attraction between a sample of matter and all other matter in the universe?

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

Gravitational Force

Explanation:

Gravitational force also called gravity or gravitation is an attractive force that keeps two objects in space. Gravitational force is an attractive force that tends to pull matters together. Every objects in the universe experience gravitational pull. Planets, stars, galaxies, are held together by gravity. It is a weak force. The weight of an object is the product of gravitational force acting on its mass.

Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation states the force of attraction between two masses m₁ and m₂ in the universe is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of their distance apart.

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

Where;

F is the gravitational force,

G is the gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10¹¹ m³/kg/s,

m1 and m2 are the masses of the objects,

r is the distance between the centers of the masses
