Answer: 9938.8 km
Explanation:
1 pound-force = 4.48 N
30.0 pounds-force = 134.4 N
The force of gravitation between Earth and object on the surface of is given by:
Where M is the mass of the Earth, m is the mass of the object, R (6371 km) is the radius of the Earth.
At height, h above the surface of the Earth, the weight of the object:
we need to find "h"
taking the ratio of two:
Hence, Pete would weigh 30 pounds at 9938.8 km above the surface of the Earth.
There are some missing data in the text of the problem. I've found them online:
a) coefficient of friction dry steel piston - steel cilinder: 0.3
b) coefficient of friction with oil in between the surfaces: 0.03
Solution:
a) The force F applied by the person (300 N) must be at least equal to the frictional force, given by:
where
is the coefficient of friction, while N is the normal force. So we have:
since we know that F=300 N and
, we can find N, the magnitude of the normal force:
b) The problem is identical to that of the first part; however, this time the coefficienct of friction is
due to the presence of the oil. Therefore, we have:

How about a carousel (merry go round).
For any one horse or rider, Speed is constant but direction keeps changing, so velocity does too.
