Let m =  mass of asteroid y.
Because asteroid y has three times the mass of asteroid z, the mass of asteroid z is m/3.

Given:
F = 6.2x10⁸ N
d = 2100 km = 2.1x10⁶ m
Note that
G = 6.67408x10⁻¹¹ m³/(kg-s²)

The gravitational force between the asteroids is
F = (G*m*(m/3))/d² = (Gm²)/(3d²)
or
m² = (3Fd²)/G
     = [(3*(6.2x10⁸ N)*(2.1x10⁶ m)²]/(6.67408x10⁻¹¹ m³/(kg-s²))
    = 1.229x10³² kg²
m = 1.1086x10¹⁶ kg = 1.1x10¹⁶ kg (approx)

Answer: 1.1x10¹⁶ kg

<h2>Answer: B. Gravitational potential energy </h2>

Explanation:

<em>The gravitational potential energy is the energy that a body or object possesses, due to its position in a gravitational field. </em>

That is why this energy depends on the relative height of an object with respect to some point of reference and associated with the gravitational force.

In the case of the <u>Earth</u>, in which  <u>the gravitational field is considered constant</u>, the value of the gravitational potential energy U_{p} will be:

U_{p}=mgh  

Where m is the mass of the object, g the acceleration due gravity and h the height of the object.

As we can see, the value of U_{p} is directly proportional to the height.

Ricardo and Jane are standing under a tree in the middle of a pasture. An argument ensues, and they walk away in different direc
Advocard [28]

Answer:

the direction that should be walked by Ricardo to go directly to Jane is 23.52 m, 24° east of south

Explanation:

given information:

Ricardo walks 27.0 m in a direction 60.0 ∘ west of north, thus

A= 27

Ax =  27 sin 60 = - 23.4

Ay = 27 cos 60 = 13.5

Jane walks 16.0 m in a direction 30.0 ∘ south of west, so

B = 16

Bx = 16 cos 30 = -13.9

By = 16  sin 30 = -8

the direction that should be walked by Ricardo to go directly to Jane

R = √A²+B² - (2ABcos60)

   = √27²+16² - (2(27)(16)(cos 60))

   = 23.52 m

now we can use the sines law to find the angle

tan θ = \frac{R_{y} }{R_{x} }

         = By - Ay/Bx -Ax

         = (-8 - 13.5)/(-13.9 - (-23.4))

     θ  = 90 - (-8 - 13.5)/(-13.9 - (-23.4))

         = 24° east of south

If you peel two strips of transparent tape off the same roll and immediately let them hang near each other, they will repel each
g100num [7]

Answer:

1.

Firstly removing off one strip and it leaves electrons behind, so the strip becomes positively charged.

2. The roll however is not negatively charged because it is "earthed " by the hand holding it, thus excess negatives repel each other away through the hand.

3.Tearing off the next strip and once more it leaves electrons behind, the new strip is also positively charged and will repel the first strip.

4. Then, tear two strips apart and one will leave electrons behind on the other. Meaning that one strip is positive and the other is negative and they will attract each other.

An electric drill transfers 200 J of energy into a useful kinetic energy store. It also transfers 44 J of energy by sound and 48
kramer

Answer:

Er = 108 [J]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must understand that the total energy is 200 [J]. Of this energy 44 [J] are lost in sound and 48 [J] are lost in heat. In such a way that these energy values must be subtracted from the total of the kinetic energy.

200 - 44 - 48 = Er

Where:

Er = remaining energy [J]

Er = 108 [J]
