Answer:

W = 113.98 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of Potatoine $R=6.4\times 10^6\ m$

Mass of Potatoine, $M=2\times 10^{24}\ kg$

Mass of Marvin, m = 35 kg

We need to find his weight on Potatoine. Weight of an object is given by :

W = mg

g is acceleration due to gravity, $g=\dfrac{GM}{R^2}$

So,

$W=\dfrac{GMm}{R^2}\\\\W=\dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 35\times 2\times 10^{24}}{(6.4\times 10^6)^2}\\\\W=113.98\ N$

So, his weight on Potatoine is 113.98 N.

One hazard of space travel is debris left by previous missions. There are several thousand objects orbiting Earth that are large

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

6666.67 Newtons

Explanation:

The formula F=ma (force is equal to mass multiplied by acceleration) can be used to calculate the answer to this question.

In this case:

mass= 0.1mg= 1*10^-7 kg
velocity= 4.00*10^3 m/s
time= 6.00*10^-8 s

Using velocity and time, acceleration can be calculated as:

a= 6.667*10^10 m/s²

Substituting these values into the formula F=ma, the answer is:

F= (1*10^-7)kg * (6.667*10^10) m/s²
F= 6666.67 Newtons of force

calculate the diameter of a silver wire of length 75cm , which is extended by 1.85mm when a 10kg mass is suspended from it's end

sdas [7]

Answer: $0.8\ mm$

Explanation:

Given

length of wire $l=75\ cm$

change in length $\Delta l=1.85\ mm$

mass of wire $m=10\ kg$

Young's modulus for silver $E=7.9\times 10^{10}\ N/m^2$

load on wire $F=mg$

$F=10\times 9.8=98\ kg$

change in length is given by

$\Delta l=\dfrac{Pl}{AE}$

Where A=area of cross-section

$A=\dfrac{Pl}{\Delta lE}$

$A=\dfrac{98\times 0.75}{1.85\times 10^{-3}\times 7.9\times 10^{10}}$

$A=\dfrac{73.5}{14.615\times 10^{7}}$

$A=5.029\times 10^{-7}\ m^2$

also wire is the shape of cylinder so cross-section is given by

$A=\dfrac{\pi d^2}{4}=5.029\times 10^{-7}\ m^2$

$\Rightarrow d^2=\dfrac{5.029\times 10^{-7}\times 4}{\pi }$

$\Rightarrow d^2=64.02\times 10^{-8}$

$\Rightarrow d=8\times 10^{-4}\ m$

$\Rightarrow d=0.8\ mm$

I drop an egg from a certain distance and it takes the egg 3.74 seconds to reach the ground. How high up was the egg?

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

B. 68.6m

Explanation:

Free Fall Motion

When a body is left to move in the air with no friction, the motion is ruled only by the force of gravity. The vertical distance a body travels in the air after a time t is .

$\displaystyle y=\frac{gt^2}{2}$

We know the egg takes 3.74 seconds to reach the ground. The height it was launched from is

$\displaystyle y=\frac{(9.8)(3.474)^2}{2}$

$\displaystyle y=68.54\ m$

The closest correct option is

B. 68.6m
