Answer:

you havent given the full question

but im guessing momentum

momentum is the quantity of motion of a moving body, measured as a product of its mass and velocity or the impetus gained by a moving object.

Explanation:

as the child is pushed, it gathers momentum as its weight allows it be pushed forward, and the velocity is the speed driven by the amount of force the parent pushes on the child whilst they are swinging. The momentum is the result of this action

the equation that links these factors together are

p = mv

p = momentum

m = mass

v = velocity

hope i got it right ._.

Answer:

Uniform rectilinear movement (m. r. u.)

Explanation:

It is a continuous movement without acceleration, that is, it moves at a constant speed. The speed does not change over time, for this reason, there is no change in acceleration.

Vf = final velocity = 50/30 [km/s] = 1.67 [km/s]

Vo = initial velocity = 50/30 [km/s] = 1.67 [km/s]

Answer: $3.7 \times 10^{-4} N$

Explanation:

The gravitational pull between two object is given by:

$F = G\frac{Mm}{r^2}$

Where M and m are the masses of the object, r is the distance between the masses and G = 6.67× 10⁻¹¹ m³kg⁻¹ s⁻² is the gravitational constant.

We have to calculate the net force on Earth due to Venus, Jupiter and Saturn when they are in one line. It means when they are the closest distance.

$F_{net] = G\frac{M_eM_v}{r_v^2}+G\frac{M_eM_j}{r_j^2}+G\frac{M_eM_s}{r_s^2}$

Mass of Earth, Me = 5.98 × 10²⁴ kg

Mass of Venus, Mv = 0.815 Me

Mass of Jupiter, Mj = 318 Me

Mass of Saturn, Ms = 95.1 Me

closest distance between Earth and Venus, rv = 38 × 10⁶ km = 0.25 AU

closest distance between Jupiter and Earth, rj = 588 × 10⁶ km = 3.93 AU

closest distance between Earth and Saturn, rs = 1.2 × 10⁹ km = 8.0 AU

where 1 AU = 1.5 × 10¹¹ m

Inserting the values:

$F_{net} = G\frac{M_e\times 0.815 M_e}{(0.25AU)^2}+G\frac{M_e\times 318 M_e}{(3.93AU)^2}+G\frac{M_e\times 95.1 M_e}{(8.0AU)^2}\\ \Rightarrow F_{net} = \frac{(GM_e^2)}{(1AU)^2}(\frac{0.815}{0.25^2}+\frac{318}{3.93^2}+\frac{95.1}{8.0^2})=\frac{6.67\times 10^{-11} \times (5.98\times 10^{24})^2}{(1.5\times 10^{11})^2}(35.1) = 3.7 \times 10^{-4} N$
