Fnet=(115+106)-186= 34 N

mass=Force/g= 186N/9.8m/s^2 = 18.98 kg

a=fnet/mass => 34N/18.98kg = 1.79 m/s^2

so A= 1.8m/s^2

An astronaut weighs 8.00 × 102 newtons on the sur- face of Earth. What is the weight of the astronaut 6.37 × 106 meters above th

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

$mg=200.4 N$ .

Explanation:

This problem can be solved using Newton's law of universal gravitation: $F=G\frac{m_{1}m_{2}}{r^{2}}$ ,

where F is the gravitational force between two masses $m_{1}$ and $m_{2}$ , $r$ is the distance between the masses (their center of mass), and $G=6.674*10^{-11}(m^{3}kg^{-1}s^{-2})$ is the gravitational constant.

We know the weight of the astronout on the surface, with this we can find his mass. Letting $w_{s}$ be the weight on the surface:

$w_{s}=mg$ ,

$mg=8*10^{2}$ ,

$m=(8*10^{2})/g$ ,

since we now that $g=9.8m/s^{2}$ we get that the mass is

$m=81.6kg$ .

Now we can use Newton's law of universal gravitation

$F=G\frac{Mm}{r^{2}}$ ,

where $m$ is the mass of the astronaut and $M$ is the mass of the earth. From Newton's second law we know that

$F=ma$ ,

in this case the acceleration is the gravity so

$F=mg$ , (<u>becarefull, gravity at this point is no longer</u> $9.8m/s^{2}$ <u>because we are not in the surface anymore</u>)

and this get us to

$mg=G\frac{Mm}{r^{2}}$ , where $mg$ is his new weight.

We need to remember that the mass of the earth is $M=5.972*10^{24}kg$ and its radius is $6.37*10^{6}m$ .

The total distance between the astronaut and the earth is

$r=(6.37*10^{6}+6.37*10^{6})=2(6.37*10^{6})=12.74*10^{6}$ meters.

Now we can compute his weigh:

$mg=G\frac{Mm}{r^{2}}$ ,

$mg=(6.674*10^{-11})\frac{(5.972*10^{24})(81.6)}{(12.74*10^{6})^{2}}$ ,

$mg=200.4 N$ .

A block of size 20m x 10 mx 5 m exerts a force of 30N. Calculate the

Orlov [11]

Answer:

We know that force applied per unit area is called pressure.

Pressure = Force/ Area

When force is constant than pressure is inversely proportional to area.

1- Calculating the area of three face:

A1 = 20m x 10 m =200 Square meter

A2 = 10 mx 5 m = 50 Square meter

A3 = 20m x 5 m = 100 Square meter

Therefore A1 is maximum and A2 is minimum.

2- Calculate pressure:

P = F/ A1 = 30 / 200 = 0.15 Nm⁻² ( minimum pressure)

P = F / A2 = 30 / 50 = 0.6 Nm⁻² ( maximum pressure)

Hence greater the area less will be the pressure and vice versa.
