The mass of a planet is 3.7 x 1024 kg. If the planet has a radius of 9.2 x 106 m what is the acceleration of gravity for a perso

nalin [4]

Explanation:

It s given that,

Mass of a planet, $M=3.7\times 10^{24}\ kg$

Radius of a planet, $R=9.2\times 10^{6}\ m$

(1) We need to find the acceleration due to gravity for a person on the surface of the planet. Its formula is given by :

$g=\dfrac{GM}{R^2}$

$g=\dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\ Nm^2/kg^2\times 3.7\times 10^{24}\ kg}{(9.2\times 10^{6}\ m)^2}$

$g=2.91\ m/s^2$

(2) The escape velocity is given by :

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2GM}{R}}$

$v=\sqrt{{\dfrac{2\times 6.67\times 10^{-11}\ Nm^2/kg^2\times 3.7\times 10^{24}\ kg}{9.2\times 10^{6}\ m}}$

v = 7324.61 m/s

Hence, this is the required solution.

A uniform thin wire is bent into a quarter-circle of radius a = 20.0 cm, and placed in the first quadrant. Determine the coordin

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

$r_{cm}=[12.73,12.73]cm$

Explanation:

The general equation to calculate the center of mass is:

$r_{cm}=1/M*\int\limits {r} \, dm$

Any differential of mass can be calculated as:

$dm = \lambda*a*d\theta$ Where "a" is the radius of the circle and λ is the linear density of the wire.

The linear density is given by:

$\lambda=M/L=M/(a*\pi/2)=\frac{2M}{a\pi}$

So, the differential of mass is:

$dm = \frac{2M}{a\pi}*a*d\theta$

$dm = \frac{2M}{\pi}*d\theta$

Now we proceed to calculate X and Y coordinates of the center of mass separately:

$X_{cm}=1/M*\int\limits^{\pi/2}_0 {a*cos\theta*2M/\pi} \, d\theta$

$Y_{cm}=1/M*\int\limits^{\pi/2}_0 {a*sin\theta*2M/\pi} \, d\theta$

Solving both integrals, we get:

$X_{cm}=2*a/\pi=12.73cm$

$Y_{cm}=2*a/\pi=12.73cm$

Therefore, the position of the center of mass is:

$r_{cm}=[12.73,12.73]cm$

According to Newton’s first law of motion, what will an object in motion do when no external force acts on it?

KonstantinChe [14]

By definition, we have to:

Newton's first law states that any object will remain in a state of rest or with a uniform rectilinear motion unless an external force acts on it.

Therefore, according to the first law of Newton, if the object is already in motion and has no force acting on it then, it will remain with a uniform rectilinear motion.

Answer:

The object will remain with a uniform rectilinear movement when the external force does not act on it.
