Answer:

r = 1.63×10^5 mi

Explanation:

Let r = distance of object from earth

Rs = distance between earth and sun

Ms = mass of the sun

= 3.24×10^5 Me (Me = mass of earth)

At a distance R from earth, the force Fs exerted by the sun on the object is equal to the force Fe exerted by the earth on the object. Using Newton's universal law of gravitation,

Fs = Fe

GmMs/(Rs - r)^2 = GmMe/r^2

This simplifies to

Ms/(Rs - r)^2 = Me/r^2

(3.24×10^5 Me)/(Rs - r)^2 = Me/r^2

Taking the reciprocal and then its square root, this simplifies further to

Rs - r = (569.2)r ----> Rs = 570.2r

or

r = Rs/570.2 = (9.3×10^7 mi)/570.2

= 1.63×10^5 mi

How do human population growth trends differ between developed nations and developing nations?
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

Replacement-Level Fertility

Another important population characteristic that differ btw develop nation and developing nations is relates to births is replacement-level fertility. Replacement-level fertility is the fertility rate that will result in the replacement of the parents in the population. Again, in an ideal world, the human replacement-level fertility rate would be exactly two. This would mean that each couple would produce two offspring that would replace them in the population. If this occurred, then the human population would stay at a stable rate

A wall (of thermal conductivity 0.98 W/m · ◦ C) of a building has dimensions of 3.7 m by 15 m. The average inside and outside
disa [49]

Answer:

Answer:

the amount of energy flowing is 1.008x10⁹J

Explanation:

To calculate how much heat flows, the expression is the following:

Where

K=thermal conductivity=0.81W/m°C

A=area=6.2*12=74.4m²

ΔT=30-8=22°C

L=thickness=8cm=0.08m

t=time=16.9h=60840s

A 1200-kilogram automobile in motion strikes a 0.0001-kilogram insect. As a result, the insect is accelerated at a rate of 100 m
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

force = 1 × 10^{-2} N

Explanation:

given data

automobile mass = 1200 kg

insect mass = 0.0001 kg

insect accelerated = 100 m/s²

to find out

magnitude of the force the insect exerts on the car

solution

we get here force the insect exerts that is express as

force = mass × acceleration    ............1

put here value we get

force = 0.0001 × 100 m/s²

force = 1 × 10^{-2} N
