Answer:

3.64×10⁸ m

3.34×10⁻³ m/s²

Explanation:

Let's define some variables:

M₁ = mass of the Earth

r₁ = r = distance from the Earth's center

M₂ = mass of the moon

r₂ = d − r = distance from the moon's center

d = distance between the Earth and the moon

When the gravitational fields become equal:

GM₁m / r₁² = GM₂m / r₂²

M₁ / r₁² = M₂ / r₂²

M₁ / r² = M₂ / (d − r)²

M₁ / r² = M₂ / (d² − 2dr + r²)

M₁ (d² − 2dr + r²) = M₂ r²

M₁d² − 2dM₁ r + M₁ r² = M₂ r²

M₁d² − 2dM₁ r + (M₁ − M₂) r² = 0

d² − 2d r + (1 − M₂/M₁) r² = 0

Solving with quadratic formula:

r = [ 2d ± √(4d² − 4 (1 − M₂/M₁) d²) ] / 2 (1 − M₂/M₁)

r = [ 2d ± 2d√(1 − (1 − M₂/M₁)) ] / 2 (1 − M₂/M₁)

r = [ 2d ± 2d√(1 − 1 + M₂/M₁) ] / 2 (1 − M₂/M₁)

r = [ 2d ± 2d√(M₂/M₁) ] / 2 (1 − M₂/M₁)

When we plug in the values, we get:

r = 3.64×10⁸ m

If the moon wasn't there, the acceleration due to Earth's gravity would be:

g = GM / r²

g = (6.672×10⁻¹¹ N m²/kg²) (5.98×10²⁴ kg) / (3.64×10⁸ m)²

g = 3.34×10⁻³ m/s²

A steel rod has a radius of 10mm and a
ss7ja [257]
Given a steel rod:
Radius = r = 10 mm = 0.010 m.
Length L = 1 m.
Tensile Force = F = 100 kN.
Young's Modulus = Y = 2.0 &* 10¹¹ Nm⁻²

a) Stress = Force/cross sectional area
σ = F / A
= 100,000 /(π 0.010²) Pa
= 318.309 MPa

b) Y = (F/A) / (ΔL/L)
Elongation ΔL = L F / (A Y)
= L σ / Y
= 1 * 318.309 * 10⁶ / 2.0 * 10¹¹ m
= 1.591 mm

c) Percentage elongation : ΔL/L * 100 = 0.1591 %

A ball rolls down a ramp for 15 seconds. If the initial velocity of the ball was 0.8m/s and the final velocity was 7m/s, what wa
iren [92.7K]
Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (ending speed) - (starting speed)

                            =  (7.0 m/s)  -  (0.8 m/s)  =  6.2 m/s

Time for the change  =  15 seconds

Acceleration  =  (6.2 m/s) / (15 sec)

                      =   (6.2/15)  m/s²

                      =     0.413 m/s²
