Now suppose that the Earth had the same mass and radius as it currently does, but all of the mass was concentrated into a thin (
KiRa [710]

Answer:

The force of gravity at the shell will be extremely great on me due to the huge mass collapsed into the small radius.

<em>At the center of the shell, the gravitational forces all around should cancel out, giving me a feeling of weightlessness; which will be a lesser force compared to that felt while standing on the shell.</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

For the collapsed earth:

mass = 5.972 × 10^24 kg

radius = 1 ft

according to Newton's gravitation law, the force of gravity due to two body with mass is given as

Fg = GMm/R^{2}

Where Fg is the gravitational force between the two bodies.

G is the gravitational constant

M is the mass of the earth

m is my own mass

R is the distance between me and the center of the earths in each case

For the case where I stand on the shell:

radius R will be 1 ft

Fg = GMm/1^{2}

Fg = GMm

For the case where I stand stand inside the shell, lets say I'm positioned at the center of the shell. The force of gravity due to my mass will be balanced out by all other masses around due to the shell of the hollow earth. This cancelling will produce a weightless feeling on me.

A 1000 kg satellite and a 2000 kg satellite follow exactly the same orbit around the earth. What is the ratio F1/F2 of the gravi
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

the <em>ratio F1/F2 = 1/2</em>

the <em>ratio a1/a2 = 1</em>

Explanation:

The force that both satellites experience is:

F1 = G M_e m1 / r²       and

F2 = G M_e m2 / r²

where

  • m1 is the mass of satellite 1
  • m2 is the mass of satellite 2
  • r is the orbital radius
  • M_e is the mass of Earth

Therefore,

F1/F2 = [G M_e m1 / r²] / [G M_e m2 / r²]

F1/F2 = [G M_e m1 / r²] × [r² / G M_e m2]

F1/F2 = m1/m2

F1/F2 = 1000/2000

<em>F1/F2 = 1/2</em>

The other force that the two satellites experience is the centripetal force. Therefore,

F1c = m1 v² / r    and

F2c = m2 v² / r

where

  • m1 is the mass of satellite 1
  • m2 is the mass of satellite 2
  • v is the orbital velocity
  • r is the orbital velocity

Thus,

a1 = v² / r ⇒ v² = r a1    and

a2 = v² / r ⇒ v² = r a2

Therefore,

F1c = m1 a1 r / r = m1 a1

F2c = m2 a2 r / r = m2 a2

In order for the satellites to stay in orbit, the gravitational force must equal the centripetal force. Thus,

F1 = F1c

G M_e m1 / r² = m1 a1

a1 = G M_e / r²

also

a2 = G M_e / r²

Thus,

a1/a2 = [G M_e / r²] / [G M_e / r²]

<em>a1/a2 = 1</em>

A 3-kg ball is thrown with a speed of 8 m/s at an unknown angle above the horizontal. The ball attains a maximum height of 2.8 m
Alina [70]

Answer:

13.5 J

Explanation:

mass of ball, m = 3 kg

maximum height, h = 2.8 m

initial speed, u = 8 m/ s

Angle of projection, θ

use the formula of maximum height

H = \frac{u^{2}Sin^{2}\theta }{2g}

2.8 = \frac{8^{2}Sin^{2}\theta }{2\times 9.8}

Sin θ = 0.926

θ = 67.8°

The velocity at maximum height is u Cosθ = 8 Cos 67.8 = 3 m/s

So, kinetic energy at maximum height

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

K = 0.5 x 3 x 3 x 3

K = 13.5 J

oee [108]

Answer:

Momentum after = 2400 kgm/s

Explanation:

Momentum after = momentum before

Momentum after = m1v1 +m2v2

Momentum after = (600)(4) + (400)(0)

Momentum after = 2400 kgm/s

A 1 kilogram ball has 8 joules of kinetic energy. what is its speed
ivann1987 [24]
KE =  \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} \\ v =  \sqrt{ \frac{2KE}{m} }  \\ v =  \sqrt{ \frac{2*8J}{1kg} } \\ v = 4m/s

Therefore, the ball has a velocity of 4m/s.
