Answer:

1.38*10^18 kg

Explanation:

According to the Newton's law of universal gravitation:

F=G*\frac{m_a*m_p}{r^2}

where:

G= Gravitational constant (6.674×10−11 N · (m/kg)2)

ma= mass of the astronaut

mp= mass of the planet

F=m_a.a\\(v_f )^2=(v_o)^2+2.a.\Delta y\\\\a=\frac{(v_f)^2-(v_o)^2}{2.\Delta y}\\\\a=\frac{(0)^2-(4.29m/s)^2}{2.0.64m}=14.38m/s^2\\\\F=m_a*14.38m/s^2

so:

m_a*14.38m/s^2=(6.674*10^{-11}N.(m/kg)^2)*\frac{m_a.m_p}{(2.530*10^3m)^2}\\m_p=\frac{14.38m/s^2(2.530*10^3m)^2}{(6.674*10^{-11}N.(m/kg)^2)}\\\\m_p=1.38*10^{18}kg

jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

0.906 N

Explanation:

Formula for magnetic force acting on current carrying cable:

F = IBLsin(\theta)

Where I = 345A is the current in the wire, B = 5.6*10^{-5} T is the magnetic magnitude generated by Earth. L = 46.9 m is the cable length. \theta = 88.2^o is the angle between vector B and cable direction.

F = 345*5.6*10^{-5}*46.9*sin(88.2^o)

F = 0.906 N

The velocity time graph of a car shown below a) Calculate the magnitude of displacement of the car in 40 seconds. b) During whic
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

a) 0 metres

b) From time 0 s to 10 s , the car was accelerated. Its velocity accelerated from 0m/s to 20 m/s

c) 20 m/s

Explanation:

a) <em>Formula of displacement= velocity x time</em>

time=40 s

velocity =0 m/s

∴ displacement= 0 x 40 = 0 m

Magnitude of displacement is 0 m

b) The increase in velocity shows that there has been acceleration.

c) The average velocity of the car is =\frac{0+40}{2\\}   {initial velocity + final velocity}

                                                            =\frac{40}{2}

                                                             =20

Therefore, the magnitude of the average velocity  of the car is 20 m/s

Using complete sentences and your own words describe some of the ways humans use water.
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

Humans use water for many different things. We use water to stay hydrated. Our bodies need water to live. Back in the day people used water for transportation and trading. This was a way to become wealthy and exchange goods and ideas from one place to another. We also use water to clean ourselves off. If we don't we can become sick with illnesses that can harm our bodies.
