Perhaps the most-common gravitational calculation is to determine the "weight" of an object of mass mo sitting on the surface of the earth (i. e., the magnitude of the gravitational attraction between the earth and the object). According to Newton's law of universal gravitation, the gravitational force on the object is Fg=G(memor2e)=(Gmer2e)mo , where me is the mass of the earth and re is the distance between the object and the center of the earth (i. e., re = radius of the earth = 6.38×10^3km).

Required:
What is the value of the composite constant (Gme/r^2e), to be multiplied by the mass of the object mo in the equation above? Express your answer numerically in meters per second per second.

The lights used by mark watley (played by matt damon) during the film the martian seem to be metal halide lamps. metal halide lamps are filled with vaporized mercury and metal-halogen compounds. when an electric current is passed through the lamp, the tube begins to glow a bright white/blue color. if you were to pass this light through a prism to separate the individual light frequencies, you would see a rainbow just as you would if using natural sunlight because of the complexity of the metal halide gas and the vast amount of possible electron transitions. (the study of light in this way is known as spectroscopy and allows astronomers to know exactly what atoms compose distant stars, simply by looking at the light they emit. the spectral lines an atom produces uniquely identifies that atom just like a fingerprint uniquely identifies a person. the momentum equation and energy equation that we have used above can be combined to give the following equation: c = e p where again p is the phonon momentum, e is the photon energy and c is the speed of light. when you divide the photon energy found in #6 by the photon momentum found in #4, do you get the speed of light? (if not, check your work for questions #4 through #6). yes no

The california mussel (mytilus californianus) attaches itself to a rock or other solid surface with a bundle of filaments known as the byssus. imagine that 15.0 j of work is done to stretch the distal end of the byssus. it releases 10.8 j of thermal energy as it relaxes. what is the resilience of the distal end of the byssus?
