So I got the problem correct up to the point that I derived the initial velocity in the x direction, 0.24 m/s. After this point, I do not understand the methodology behind this problem. The teacher told me to use the equation x=v1xt, plug in my given values, and solve for t to get 3 seconds...

I attempted a solution, but I was unfortunately confused and did not know how to do the problem. As a result, I did not do any work.

I first plugged my given values into m1v1+m2v2=(m1+m2)vf. (0.002)(600)+(5)(0)=((0.0020)+(5))vf vf=0.24 m/s Next, I plugged my given values into F=ma. ((0.002)+(5))(9.8) F=49.02 N Next, I plugged my given values into Fdeltat=mdeltav. deltat=mdeltav/F ((0.002)+(5))(0.24)/(49.02)...

5) So I used your suggestion and plugged my values into the equation. g=(6.67x10^-11)(1.79x10^27)/(7.04x10^7)=1.70x10^9 N 6) I redid 6a and got a different answer. v=√(g.g7x10^-11)(5.97x10^24)/(6400100)=7888 m/s^2 Using that answer I redid 6b. 7888=2pi(6.4x10^6)/T=5096 s= 84.94 min I am...

In hindsight, I don't understand my attempted strategy for Problem 5. Would you care to explain the process of solving it? Thanks! This was a test, and the teacher did go over the answers, but I do not understand how to complete them.
