An astronaut tightens a bolt on a satellite in orbit. He rotates in a direction opposite to that of the bolt, and the satellite
statuscvo [17]

Answer: yes it can be prevented

Explanation:

The sensation of weightlessness that astronauts experience seems to make their tasks almost effortless. However, as Newton's third law of motion suggests, working in space can be physically demanding. 

As he tightens the bolt, he is rotating in the direction opposite to the bolt

It is possible if the handhold is designed in three dimensional motion where the astronaut motion will be the uplimb motion with the mass centre of hand move along circular helix trajectory

Angular momentum is conserved astronaut motion is conserved when net external torque is Zero.

Explain why an object’s weight is dependent upon where in the universe it is located.
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

The weight of any object will depend on its location in the universe, commanded by the law of gravitacion universal de Newton

Explanation:

Everything obeys the law of universal gravity proposed by Newton. Where the attraction force with which one body attracts another depends on the mass of the body that attracts the body with less mass, the radius of the body with the greatest mass and the universal gravitational constant.

For a better understanding of this concept let us use examples with numeric values. In the first example we will determine with what force planet Earth attracts a person of 70 [kg].

And in the second example we will perform the same exercise but on a planet like Jupiter

Example 1:

A person with a mass of 70 [kg] is located on planet Earth which has a mass of 5.97x10^24 [kg] and a terrestrial radius of 6371 [km]. Find the force exerted by the planet upon the person.

We have the  law of universal gravity

F=G*\frac{m_{1} *m_{2} }{r^{2} } \\where\\G = 6.67*10^-11[\frac{N*m^{2} }{kg^{2}} ]\\m_{1}=70[kg]\\m_{2}=5.97*10^{24} [kg]\\r= 6371[km]

Now replacing the values in the equation we have:

F=6.67*10^{-11} *\frac{70*5.97*10^{24} }{(6371*10^3)^{2} } \\F=687[N]

We can appreciate that if we only use the terms of mass of the earth, the gravitational constant and the radius of the earth, we will have the value of the gravity accelaration of the earth. Let's check

g_{earth} =6.67*10^{-11} *\frac{5.97*10^{24} }{(6371*10^3)^{2} } \\g_{earth} = 9.81 [m/s^{2} ]

Example 2:

A person with a mass of 70 [kg] is located on planet Jupiter which has a mass of 1.899x10^27 [kg] and a  radius of 71492 [km]. Find the force exerted by the planet upon the person.

F=6.67*10^{-11}*\frac{70*1.899*10^{27} }{(71492*10^3)^{2} }  \\F= 1734.73[N]

We will calculate the value of the gravity accelaration of Jupiter. Let's check

g_{jupiter} = 6.67*10^{-11} *\frac{1.899*10^{27} }{(71492*10^3)^{2} } \\g_{jupiter}= 24.8 [m/s^2]\\

Therefore an object in jupiter will weigh more than 2.5 times its weight than on planet Earth.

We found that the force of attraction or the weight of any object will depend on its location in the universe, commanded by the law of gravitacion universal de Newton

An object’s average density rho is defined as the ratio of its mass to its volume: rho=M/V. The earth’s mass is 5.94×1024kg, and
ladessa [460]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 5.5 x 10¹² kg/km³

Explanation:

Data

density = rho = X

mass = 5.94 x 10²⁴ kg

volume = 1.08 x 10¹² km³

Process

To solve this problem use the density formula and simplify it to find the result.

Formula

density = \frac{mass}{volume}

Substitution

density = \frac{5.94 x 10^{24} }{1.08 x 10^{12}}

Simplification and result

density = 5.5 x 10¹² kg/km³

What is the volume of water in 150ml of the 35% w/w of sucrose solution with a specific gravity of 1.115?
pentagon [3]

Answer:108.71 mL

Explanation:

Given

Volume of sample V=150 mL

concentration of sucrose solution 35 % w/w i.e. In  100 gm of sample 35 gm is sucrose

specific gravity =1.115

Density of solution \rho _s=1.115\times density\ of\ water

Thus

\rho _s=1.15\times 1 gm/mL=1.115\ gm/mL

mass of sample M=1.115\times 150=167.25\ gm

mass of sucrose m_s=0.35\times 167.25=58.53\ gm

mass of Water m_w=108.71 gm

Volume of water =108.71\times 1=108.781 mL
