Answer:

A reference frame is that frame to which the qualities of an object are related:

For instance - an object may described by - mass, speed, acceleration, size, etc,

It is important to remember that Newton's Laws of motion do not hold in accelerated reference frames -

Einstein's laws of special relativity are only true in frames that move with contant speed to one another

A man has 887.5 J of kinetic energy while running with a velocity of 5 m/s. What is his mass?

monitta

Answer:

The mass of the man is 71 kg

Explanation:

Given;

kinetic energy of the man, K.E = 887.5 J

velocity of the man, v = 5 m/s

The mass of the man is calculated as follows;

K.E = ¹/₂mv²

where;

m is the mass of the man

2K.E = mv²

m = 2K.E / v²

m = (2 x 887.5) / (5)²

m = 71 kg

Therefore, the mass of the man is 71 kg

A tomato of mass 0.18 kg is dropped from a tall bridge. If the tomato has a speed of 11 m/s just before it hits the ground, what

kondor19780726 [428]

The kinetic energy of the tomato is :

K.E = 1/2 mv^2

K.E = 1/2 x 0.18 kg x 11 m/S^2

K.E = 0.99

Hope this helps

The universal law of gravitation states that the force of attraction between two objects depends on which quantities?

Ronch [10]

Answer:

D. the masses of the objects and the distance between them

Explanation:

Gravitation is a force, a force doesn't care about the shape or density of objects, only about their masses... and distances.

And you can get it using the following equation:

$f = \frac{Gm_{1}m_{2} }{d^{2} }$

Where :

G is the universal gravitational constant : G = 6.6726 x 10-11N-m2/kg2

m represent the mass of each of the two objects

d is the distance between the centers of the objects.
