When the mass of Earth doubles, acceleration due to gravity doubles as well.

<h3>Acceleration due to gravity</h3>

Apply Newton's second law of motion;

F = mg --- (1)

where;

  • m is mass of the object
  • g is acceleration due to gravity

F = GmM/R²  --- (2)

where;

  • M is mass of Earth
  • R is radius of Earth

Solve (1) and (2)

mg =  GmM/R²

g = GM/R²

when the mass of Earth doubles, acceleration due to gravity becomes;

g' = G(2M)/R²

g' = 2(GM/R²)

g' = 2g

Thus, when the mass of Earth doubles, acceleration due to gravity doubles as well.

An amusement park ride consists of a large vertical cylinder that spins about its axis fast enough that a person inside is stuck
ElenaW [278]

Let N be the normal force that forces the person against the wall.

Then u N = m g  is the frictional force supporting the person's weight

and N = m g / u

also, N = m v^2 / R is the normal force providing the centripetal acceleration

So, m g / u = m v^2 / R

v^2 = g R / u

since v = 2 pi R T

4 pi^2 R^2 T^2 = g R / u     and T^2 = g / (4  u pi^2 R)

T = 1/ (2 pi)  (g /(u R))^1/2 = .159 * (9.8 m/s^2 / (.521 * 4.4 m)) ^1/2

T = .68 / s

Do you see any thing wrong here?

T should have units of seconds not 1 / seconds

v should be  2 * pi * R / T  where T is the time for 1 revolution

So you need to make that correction in the above formula for v.

In severe head-on automobile accidents, a deceleration of 60 g’s or more (1 g 5 32.2 ft/s2) often results in a fatality. What fo
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

The resulting force on the child is 3000 lbf

Explanation:

To find the force that acts on a child of 50 lb with a deceleration of 60 g's, we can use the formula:

Force = mass * acceleration

To find the force in lbf, we need to use the mass in lb and the acceleration in g (standard unit of gravity).

So we have that:

Force = 50 * 60

Force = 3000 lbf

So the resulting force on the child is 3000 lbf.
