<span>10 times as much. Since F=m*a, and a is constant, the only thing that affects force is the mass.

In response to the below answer, the acceleration due to gravity does not change. The force due to gravity definitely DOES change depending on the mass of the object. Since the force is what the problem asks for, the answer is 10</span>

If this is happening on Earth, then the force of gravity between the Earth and the brick is 98 Newtons. It doesn't matter whether the brick is falling, rising, dropped in a vacuum, in water, or into chicken soup, or what else is dropped near it. None of that has any effect on the gravitational force between the Earth and the brick.

Can't really plot a graph here for question 1.

2a) The car speeds up from A to B. The car travels at a constant speed from B to C. The car slows down to a stop from C to D.

b) From the graph, at 10 seconds, the car is moving at 20 m/s.

At height h above the surface of Earth, the gravitational acceleration is What is h? Note: The radius of Earth is 6380 km.
rusak2 [61]

The acceleration of gravity is inversely proportional to
the square of the distance from Earth's center.

The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s² on the Earth's surface ...
6380 km from the center.

If the acceleration of gravity at 'h' is 4.9 m/s² ... 1/2 of what it is
on the surface, then the distance from the center is

                 (6380 x √2) =  9,023 km  (rounded) ,

and 'h' is the distance above the surface

                     = (9,023 - 6,380) =  2,643 km  (rounded) .

A small steel roulette ball rolls around the inside of a 30 cm diameter roulette wheel. It is spun at 150 rpm, but is slows to 6
liraira [26]

Solution :

Given

Diameter of the roulette ball = 30 cm

The speed ball spun at the beginning = 150 rpm

The speed of the ball during a period of 5 seconds = 60 rpm

Therefore, change of speed in 5 seconds = 150 - 60

                                                                      = 90 rpm

Therefore,

90 revolutions in 1 minute

or In 1 minute the ball revolves 90 times

i.e. 1 min = 90 rev

     60 sec = 90 rev

        1 sec = 90/ 60 rec

         5 sec = $\frac{90}{60}\times 5$

                   = 75 rev

Therefore, the ball made 75 revolutions during the 5 seconds.

A 70mm long blockhas cross-section of 50mm by 10mm the block is subjected to forces 60KN (tension) on the 50mm by 10mm face and
sammy [17]

Answer:

970 kN

Explanation:

The length of the block = 70 mm

The cross section of the block = 50 mm by 10 mm

The tension force applies to the 50 mm by 10 mm face, F₁ = 60 kN

The compression force applied to the 70 mm by 10 mm face, F₂ = 110 kN

By volumetric stress, we have that for there to be no change in volume, the total pressure applied by the given applied forces should be equal to the pressure removed by the added applied force

The pressure due to the force F₁ = 60 kN/(50 mm × 10 mm) = 120 MPa

The pressure due to the force F₂ = 110 kN/(70 mm × 10 mm) = 157.142857 MPa

The total pressure applied to the block, P = 120 MPa + 157.142857 MPa = 277.142857 MPa

The required force, F₃ = 277.142857 MPa × (70 mm × 50 mm) = 970 kN
