When will you attract the sun more: today at noon, or tonight at midnight? Explain.

Short Answer

Expert verified

You will attract the sun at noon.

Step by step solution

01

Direction of effective force between Sun and Earth

The gravitational force between the sun and Earth acts on each other in the opposite direction at noon but acts in the same direction at midnight.

02

Whether you will attract the sun more at noon or midnight

The effective force of a person on the sun is less at midnight because the effective force between the sun and earth is in the same direction.

The effective force of a person on the sun is more at noon because the effective force between the sun and earth is in the opposite direction.

Therefore, you will attract the sun at noon.

You hold a hose at waist height and spray water horizontally with it. The hose nozzle has a diameter of 1.80 cm, and the water splashes on the ground a distance of 0.950 cm horizontally from the nozzle. If you constrict the nozzle to a diameter of 0.750 cm, how far from the nozzle, horizontally, will the water travel before it hits the ground? (Ignore air resistance.)

Starting from the front door of a ranch house, you walk 60.0 m due east to a windmill, turn around, and then slowly walk 40.0 m west to a bench, where you sit and watch the sunrise. It takes you 28.0 s to walk from the house to the windmill and then 36.0 s to walk from the windmill to the bench. For the entire trip from the front door to the bench, what are your (a) average velocity and (b) average speed?

How many times does a human heart beat during a person鈥檚 lifetime? How many gallons of blood does it pump? (Estimate that the heart pumps 50 cm3 of blood with each beat.)

A small rock is thrown vertically upward with a speed of22.0 m/s from the edge of the roof of a 30.0-m-tall building. Therock doesn鈥檛 hit the building on its way back down and lands onthe street below. Ignore air resistance. (a) What is the speed of therock just before it hits the street? (b) How much time elapses fromwhen the rock is thrown until it hits the street?

Hot Jupiters. In 2004 astronomers reported the discovery of a large Jupiter-sized planet orbiting very close to the star HD鈥�179949 (hence the term 鈥渉ot Jupiter鈥�). The orbit was just19 the distance of Mercury from our sun, and it takes the planet only3.09days to make one orbit (assumed to be circular). (a) What is the mass of the star? Express your answer in kilograms and as a multiple of our sun鈥檚 mass. (b) How fast (in km>s) is this planet moving?
