Assume that you stay on the earth's surface. what is the ratio of the sun's gravitational force on you to the earth's gravitatio
Pachacha [2.7K]
First, let's determine the gravitational force of the Earth exerted on you. Suppose your weight is about 60 kg. 

F = Gm₁m₂/d²
where
m₁ = 5.972×10²⁴ kg (mass of earth)
m₂ = 60 kg
d = 6,371,000 m (radius of Earth)
G = 6.67408 × 10⁻¹¹ m³ kg⁻¹ s⁻²

F = ( 6.67408 × 10⁻¹¹ m³ kg⁻¹ s⁻²)(60 kg)(5.972×10²⁴ kg)/(6,371,000 m )²
F = 589.18 N

Next, we find the gravitational force exerted by the Sun by replacing,
m₁ = 1.989 × 10³⁰<span> kg
Distance between centers of sun and earth = 149.6</span>×10⁹ m
Thus,
d = 149.6×10⁹ m - 6,371,000 m = 1.496×10¹¹ m

Thus,
F = ( 6.67408 × 10⁻¹¹ m³ kg⁻¹ s⁻²)(60 kg)(1.989 × 10³⁰ kg)/(1.496×10¹¹ m)²
F = 0.356  N

Ratio = 0.356  N/589.18 N
<em>Ratio = 6.04</em>

Morgarella [4.7K]
Centripetal acceleration = (speed)² / (radius) .

Force = (mass) · (acceleration)

Centripetal force = (mass) · (speed)² / (radius) .

                             = (11 kg) · (3.5 m/s)² / (0.6 m)

                             = (11 kg) · (12.25 m²/s²) / (0.6 m)

                             =  (11 · 12.25) / 0.6  kg-m/s²

                             =      224.58 newtons.    (about 50.5 pounds)

That's the tension in Miguel's arm or leg or whatever part of his body
Jesse is swinging him by.  It's the centripetal force that's needed in
order to swing 11 kg in a circle with a radius of 0.6 meter, at 3.5
meters/second.  If the force is less than that, then the mass has to
either swing slower or else move out to follow a bigger circle.
