Answer:

\huge\boxed{\sf F = 3.33* 10 ^{11} \ N}

Explanation:

<u>Given Data:</u>

\sf Mass \ of \ the \ dam =m= 3.4 * 10^{10} kg\\\\Mass \ of \ Earth = M_{e} = 5.98 * 10^{24} kg\\\\Radius \ of \ Earth = r_{e} = 6.38*10^6 m\\\\Gravitational \ Constant = G = 6.67 * 10 ^{-11} Nm^2 / kg^2

<u>Required:</u>

Force of gravity = F =?

<u>Formula:</u>

\sf F = G\frac{mM_{e}}{r^2}

<u>Solution:</u>

\sf F = (6.67*10^{-11})\frac{(3.4*10^{10}* 5.98 * 10^{24})}{(6.38*10^6)^2} \\\\F = \frac{135.6* 10 ^{-11+10+24}}{40.7 * 10 ^{12}} \\\\F = \frac{135.6 * 10^{23}}{40.7*10^{12}} \\\\F = 3.33 * 10 ^{23-12}\\\\F = 3.33* 10 ^{11} \ N\\\\\rule[225]{225}{2}

Hope this helped!

In abiding by the code of ethics, forensic scientists must possess what characteristics or ethics?
bixtya [17]
Scientists must have an unbiased type of investigation. These type of science requires three major characteristics for it to be functional and sticked to the truth: they must be impartial, accuarate and truthful. Without these characteristics there is no way forensic science must be treated as science.

How is cell size beneficial to survival
Norma-Jean [14]
If a cell grows beyond a certain size, materials will not be able to pass through the membrane fast enough to accommodate the inside of the cell. So when the cell reaches a size too large, it will divide into smaller cells in order to maintain a surface are/volume ratio that is more favorable to the functioning of the cell. Therefore, cells remain small in order to survive.

An airplane flies northwest for 250 mi and then west for 150 mi. What is the resultant displacement of the plane after this time
Kazeer [188]

Answer:371.564 mi

Explanation:

Given

Airplane flies northwest for 250 mi and then travels west 150 mi

That is first it travels 250cos45 in - ve x direction and simultaneously 250sin45 in y direction

after that it travels 150 mi in -ve x direction

So its position vector is given by

r=-250cos45\hat{i}-150\hat{i}+250sin45\hat{j}

r=-\left ( 250cos45+150\right )\hat{i}+250sin45\hat{j}

so magnitude of displacement is

|r|=\sqrt{\left ( \frac{250}{\sqrt{2}}+150\right )^2+\left ( \frac{250}{\sqrt{2}}\right )^2}

|r|=371.564 mi

A stone is dropped from the upper observation deck of a tower, 950 m above the ground. (assume g = 9.8 m/s2.) (a) find the dista
sergey [27]
<span>d = 950 m - 4.9t^2 m The distance an object moves under constant acceleration is d = 0.5at^2 where d = distance a = acceleration t = time. Since we're falling and since we're starting at 950 m above ground, the formula becomes: d = 950 m - 0.5at^2 Substituting known values, and simplifying gives us d = 950 m - 0.5*9.8 m/s^2 * t^2 d = 950 m - 4.9 m/s^2 * t^2 Since time is in seconds, we can cancel out the seconds in the units, getting d = 950 m - 4.9t^2 m</span>

Which has a higher acceleration a 10-kg object acted upon with a net force of 20 N or an 18-kg object acted on by a net force of
Ulleksa [173]
First object:
m=10 kg
F=20 N

F=ma, then:
a=F/m
a=20/10=2 m/s²

Second object:
m=18 kg
F=30 N

a=F/m
a=30/18=1.6 m/s²

The first object has a higher acceleration.
