The displacement of Edward in the westerly direction is determined as 180.27 km.

<h3>Displacement of Edward</h3>

The displacement of Edward is calculated as follows;

R² = a² + b² - 2abcosθ

R² = 150² + 200² - 2(150 x 200) x cos60

R² = 32500

R = 180.27 km

Thus, the displacement of Edward in the westerly direction is determined as 180.27 km.

A ball with mass of 0.050 kg is dropped from a height of h1 = 1 .5 m. It collides with the floor, then bounces up to a height of
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Impulse of reaction force of floor = change in momentum

Velocity of impact = √ 2gh₁

= √ 2 x 9.8 x 1.5 = 5.4 m /s.

velocity of rebound = √2gh₂

= √ 2x 9.8 x 1

= 4.427 m / s.

Initial momentum = .050 x 5.4 = .27 kg m/s

Final momentum = .05 x 4.427 = .22 kg.m/s

change in momentum = .27 - .22 = .05 kg m/s

Impulse = .05 kg m /s

Impulse = force x time

force = impulse / time

.05 / .015 = 3.33 N.

kinetic energy = 1/2 m v²

Initial kinetic energy = 1/2 x .05 x 5.4²

= 0.729 J

Final Kinetic Energy =1/2 x .05 x 4.427²

= 0.489 J

Change in Kinetic energy =0 .24 J

Lost kinetic energy is due to conversion of energy into sound light etc.

On planet X, an object weighs 7.04 N. Onplanet B where the magnitude of the free-fallacceleration is 1.91g(whereg= 9.8 m/s2isthe
timurjin [86]
<h2>Mass of object in Earth is 1.37 kg</h2>

Explanation:

On planet B where the magnitude of the free-fall acceleration is 1.91g , the object weighs 25.74 N.

We have

           Weight = Mass x Acceleration due to gravity

On planet B

           25.74 = Mass x 1.91 g

           25.74 = Mass x 1.91 x 9.81

           Mass = 1.37 kg

Mass is constant for an object. It will not change with location.

Mass of object in Earth = Mass of object in Planet B

Mass of object in Earth = 1.37 kg

Exoplanets (planets outside our solar system) are an active area of modern research. Suppose astronomers find such a planet that
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

8.829 m/s²

Explanation:

M = Mass of Earth

m = Mass of Exoplanet

g_e = Acceleration due to gravity on Earth = 9.81 m/s²

g = Acceleration due to gravity on Exoplanet

m=M-0.1M\\\Rightarrow m=0.9M

g_e=G\frac{M}{r^2}

g=G\frac{0.9M}{r^2}

Dividing the equations we get

\frac{g}{g_e}=\frac{G\frac{0.9M}{r^2}}{G\frac{M}{r^2}}\\\Rightarrow \frac{g}{g_e}=0.9\\\Rightarrow g=0.9g_e\\\Rightarrow g=0.9\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow g=8.829\ m/s^2

Acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Exoplanet is 8.829 m/s²
