Answer:

Just in 1 dimension  

Vpg = Vps + Vsg

Where

Vpg= relative to the ground

Vps= person relative to the ship

Vsg= ship relative to the ground

Vpg= Vps+Vsg ;

Vpg= 0.5 + 6  

Vpg= 6,5 m/s

Jupiter is made of gas(like Saturn, Uranus and Neptune). What would happen to the strength of gravity if you
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

a) The strength of gravity decreases if one moved away from Jupiter

b) The strength of gravity increases if one fell into Jupiter

Explanation:

The gravitational attraction is given by Newton law of gravitation as follows;

Force \ (strength) \ of \ gravity = \dfrac{G \times M \times m}{R^2}

Where;

G = The universal gravitational constant = 6.67408 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/(kg·s²)

M = The mass of Jupiter

m = The mass of the nearby body

R = The distance between the centers of Jupiter and the body

From the equation, we have that the gravitational strength varies inversely with the square of the separation distance between two bodies

Therefore, as one moves away, R increases, and the strength of gravity reduces

Similarly as the body falls into Jupiter, R, reduces the gravitational strength increases.

Describe how an electromagnet can be switched on and off.​
Phoenix [80]

Answer:The magnetic field around an electromagnet is just the same as the one around a bar magnet. It can, however, be reversed by turning the battery around. Unlike bar magnets, which are permanent magnets, the magnetism of electromagnets can be turned on and off just by closing or opening the switch.

When you and a friend move a couch to another room you exert a force of 75 N over 5m how much work will you do
sesenic [268]

The work done is 375 J

Explanation:

The work done by a force in moving an object is given by

W=Fd cos \theta

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the displacement

\theta is the angle between the direction of the force and the displacement

In this problem,

F = 75 N is the force applied to the couch

d = 5 m is the displacement

Assuming the force applied to the couch is parallel to the motion, \theta=0

And so, the work done is

W=(75)(5)(cos 0)=375 J

An ant carries a morsel of food 4.26 meters along a straight path to his nest. He then turns around and follows the path back to
Basile [38]
The displacement is zero. The most important concept to understand is the difference between displacement and total distance traveled. Total distance traveled would be tracking the length of the entire path the ant walked for the whole time (4.26m x 2). Displacement is how far from a designated origin (here, the food source) the ant ended up at the end of the time. Mathematically, the ant walked 4.26m from food source to nest (+4.26m) and then walked from the nest to food source (-4.26m), so the net displacement is [+4.26] + [-4.26] = 0m.
