Answer: 1010.92 m/s
Explanation:
According to Newton's law of universal gravitation:
(1)
Where:
is the gravitational force between Earth and Moon
is the Gravitational Constant
is the mass of the Earth
is the mass of the Moon
is the distance between the Earth and Moon
Asuming the orbit of the Moon around the Earth is a circular orbit, the Earth exerts a centripetal force on the moon, which is equal to :
(2)
Where is the centripetal acceleration given by:
(3)
Being the orbital velocity of the moon
Making (1)=(2):
(4)
Simplifying:
(5)
Making (5)=(3):
(6)
Finding :
(7)
(8)
Finally:
Answer:
W = 55.12 J
Explanation:
Given,
Natural length = 6 in
Force = 4 lb, stretched length = 8.4 in
We know,
F = k x
k is spring constant
4 = k (8.4-6)
k = 1.67 lb/in
Work done to stretch the spring to 10.1 in.
W = 55.12 J
Work done in stretching spring from 6 in to 10.1 in is equal to 55.12 J.
