Answer: 24.97 kg

Explanation:

The gravitational force between two objects of masses M1, and M2 respectively, and separated by a distance R, is:

F = G*(M1*M2)/R^2

Where G is the gravitational constant:

G = 6.67*10^-11 m^3/(kg*s^2)

In this case, we know that

R = 0.002m

F = 0.0104 N

and that M1 = M2 = M

And we want to find the value of M, then we can replace those values in the equation to get

0.0104 N = (6.67*10^-11 m^3/(kg*s^2))*(M*M)/(0.002m)^2

(0.0104 N)*(0.002m)^2/(6.67*10^-11 m^3/(kg*s^2)) = M^2

623.69 kg^2 = M^2

√(623.69 kg^2) = M = 24.97 kg

This means that the mass of each object is 24.97 kg

A man drags a 71-kg crate across the floor at a constant velocity by pulling on a strap attached to the bottom of the crate. The
Flura [38]

Answer:

T = 540 N   (to two significant digits)

Explanation:

Let the crate dimension L be from strap attachment to floor contact

Let T be the strap tension

sum moments about the floor contact point to zero

mg[½Lcos25] - Tsin61[Lcos25] + Tcos61[Lsin25] = 0

L is common to all terms, so divides out.

½(71)(9.8)cos25 = T(sin61cos25 - cos61sin25)

T = (71)(9.8)cos25 / (2(sin61cos25 - cos61sin25))

T = 536.428020...

Why do you rotate when you hold a spinning wheel?
choli [55]
When you hold a spinning wheel, the wheel and you, chair included, form a system that obeys the principle of "conservation of angular momentum". This means that any changes in angular momentum within the system must accompanied by an equal and opposite change, so the net force is zero.
