Answer:

7.9 x 10^21 pound-force

Explanation:

The average distance between the Earth and sun is 150 trillion meters, or 1.5 x 10^11 meters. The mass of the sun is 1.99 x 10^30 kilograms, while the Earth weighs in at 6.0 x 10^24 kilograms. The gravitational constant is 6.67 x 10^-11 meter^3 / (kilogram - second^2). So the Earth and sun pull on each other with a force equal to 3.52 x 10^22 newtons. The newton is a unit of force equal to a kilogram-meter/second^2. One newton is equal to 0.22 of the rarely used English unit called pound-force, so 3.52 x 10^22 newtons is 7.9 x 10^21 pound-force.

In a given chemical reaction, the energy of the products is greater than the energy of the reactants. Which statement is true fo
Flura [38]

Energy is released in the reaction

Explanation:

In a given where the energy of the products is greater than that of the reactants, we can infer that energy is released in the reaction.

This indicates that the reaction is an exothermic or exergonic reaction.

These reaction types are accompanied by release of energy.

  • In an exothermic change energy is released to the surroundings.
  • The surrounding becomes hotter at the end of the change.
  • This applies in exergonic reaction which leaves a reaction having more energy than it originally started with.

Lol i'm going to fail please help
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The frequency is 16.0 Hz. That means that 16 of these waves can pass a single point in 1 second. We are given frequency and wavelength. The equation that relates them is

f=\frac{v}{\lambda} where f is frequency, v is velocity, and λ is wavelength. Putting all this together:

16.0=\frac{v}{97.5} and solving for velocity,

v = 16.0(97.5) so

v = 1560 m/s. This wave can travel 1560 meters in a single second!!! Now that we know this velocity, we can use it in a proportion to find our unknown, which is how long, t, it will take to hear this sound 11000m away. (11 km is 11000m):

\frac{1560m}{1s}=\frac{11000}{t} and cross multiply to get

1560t = 11000 so

t = 7.1 seconds

A man-made satellite orbits the earth in a circular orbit that has a radius of 32000 km. The mass of the Earth is 5.97e 24 kg. W
Gwar [14]

Answer:

= 3521m/s

The tangential speed is approximately 3500 m/s.

Explanation:

F = m * v² ÷ r

Fg = (G * M * m) ÷ r²

(m v²) / r = (G * M * m) / r²

v² = (G * M) / r

v = √( G * M ÷ r)

G * M = 6.67 * 10⁻¹¹ * 5.97 * 10²⁴ = 3.98199 * 10¹⁴

r = 32000km = 32 * 10⁶ meters  

G * M / r = 3.98199 * 10¹⁴ ÷ 32 * 10⁶

v = √1.24 * 10⁷  

v = 3521.36m/s

The tangential speed is approximately 3500 m/s.

1) The energy held in the molecules that your lunch is composed of
Rasek [7]

Answer:

Chemical energy

Explanation:

The energy held in the foods molecules a lunch pack is composed of is chemical energy.

They occur within food substances which originates from plants and animals as giant organic molecules.

  • Since food is often derived from plants and animals.
  • Plants produce their own food by producing macromolecules from simple inorganic substances in the environment.
  • Animals takes up these food and build their own body through it.
  • Plants and animal parts constitutes organic molecules in which chemical energy is duly stored.
  • When the molecules are broken down, they released their chemical potential energy into heat energy.
