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.

Na food processing facility, a spherical container of inner radius r1 5 40 cm, outer radius r2 5 41 cm, and ther- mal conductivity k 5 1.5 w/m · k is used to store hot water and to keep it at 100°c at all times. to accomplish this, the outer surface of the container is wrapped with a 800-w electric strip heater and then insulated. the temperature of the inner surface of the container is observed to be nearly 120°c at all times. as- suming 10 percent of the heat generated in the heater is lost through the insulation, (a) express the differential equation and the boundary conditions for steady one-dimensional heat conduction through the container, (b) obtain a relation for the variation of temperature in the container material by solving the differential equation, and (c) evaluate the outer surface tempera- ture of the container. also determine how much water at 100°c this tank can supply steadily if the cold water enters at 20°c.
