If it has enough kinetic energy, a moleculeat the surface of the Earth can escape the Earth’s gravitation. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s2,and the Boltzmanns’ constant is 1.38066×10−23 J/K. Using energy conservation, a) determine theminimum kinetic energy needed to escape interms of the mass of the molecule m , the free-fall acceleration at the surface g, and the radius of the Earth R

b) Calculate the temperature for which the min- imum escape energy is 11 times the average kinetic energy of an oxygen molecule.

Orque can be calculated by multiplying the force (n) applied at 90∘ to the lever arm at a distance (m) from the pivot point (point of rotation), the compound si unit for the torque is n⋅m. if the force (at 90∘ to the lever arm) applied is 15 n and it is applied at 2.0 m from the pivot point (point of rotation), what is the torque on the lever?
