Gravitation: Gravitational Acceleration

Very Easy

(Originais Teachy 2023) - Question Very Easy of Physics

An astronaut drops a tool while working on a space mission at a distance of 4000 km from the surface of the Earth. Considering that the radius of the Earth is approximately 6400 km and the acceleration due to gravity at the Earth's surface is 9.8 m/s^2, calculate the acceleration due to gravity at the location where the tool was dropped. Use the Universal Law of Gravitation, which states that the gravitational force between two masses m1 and m2 separated by a distance d is given by F = G * (m1 * m2) / d^2, where G is the gravitational constant (G = 6.67 x 10^-11 N m^2/kg^2), to find the acceleration due to gravity at the tool's position.

In an experiment conducted in the Physics Laboratory, a group of students found that a wooden block floated in water with half of its volume submerged. Next, the same block was placed in oil where they found that it floated with $$\frac{1}{4}$$ of its volume emerged. From this information, we can affirm that the specific mass of the oil is:

A person with height $$\boldsymbol{h}$$ stands in front of a pinhole camera in order to produce an image on the opposite side of the camera that corresponds to three quarters $$(3 / 4)$$ of their height. Knowing that the pinhole camera has a depth $$\boldsymbol{d}$$, what will be the distance between the person and their image?

An airplane initially flies north at a speed of 200 km/h. Due to a wind blowing from east to west, the airplane ends up deviating to the northeast, following a trajectory that forms a 45-degree angle with the north direction and covering a distance of 300 km from the starting point. Determine, using vector concepts, the speed of the airplane relative to the ground, considering the effect of the wind. Consider that the wind speed is constant and equal to 50 km/h, and that the wind direction is perpendicular to the initial direction of the airplane.
