The gravitational force between two objects is given by:
where
G is the gravitational constant
m1 and m2 are the masses of the two objects
r is their separation
In this problem, the first object has a mass of
, while the second "object" is the Earth, with mass
. The distance of the object from the Earth's center is
; if we substitute these numbers into the equation, we find the force of gravity exerted by the Earth on the mass of 0.60 kg:
Answer:
Explanation:
3.4 m/s due North, -1.1 m/s due East
acceleration = 7 m/s²
Explanation:
To determine the object's acceleration we use the following formula:
force (N) = mass (kg) × acceleration (m/s²)
acceleration (m/s²) = force (N) / mass (kg)
acceleration = 56 N / 8 kg
acceleration = 7 m/s²

Answer:
A. The electric field points to the left because the force on a negative charge is opposite to the direction of the field.
Explanation:
The electric force exerted on a charge by an electric field is given by:
where
F is the force
q is the charge
E is the electric field
We see that if the charge is negative, q contains a negative sign, so the force F and the electric field E will have opposite signs (which means they have opposite directions). This is due to the fact that the direction of the lines of an electric field shows the direction of the electric force experienced by a positive charge in that electric field: therefore, a negative charge will experience a force into opposite direction.
