Every hour, earth turns 15 degrees around itself. so:
360 \div 15  = 24
it takes 24 hours to turn 360 degrees. ( completely once)




good luck

The following force diagram represents Newton’s Third Law of Motion:
Julli [10]

Answer:

<u>FALSE.</u>

Explanation:

Newton's third law states that :

  • <em>Every action has equal and opposite reaction</em>
  • <em>That is , the magnitude is the same but the directions are opposite</em>
  • <em>The action reaction forces DONOT operate on the same body.</em>

For example ,

If a block is kept on the ground , the action force is the normal force acting on it due to the ground. <em>BUT , NOTE THAT : the reaction force isn't the gravitational force on the body ! It is the normal force acting on the ground due to the block !</em>

Thus,

we conclude that action and reaction forces donot act on the same body and therefore , this case has the <u>answer : FALSE </u>

Which equation can be used to model simple harmonic motion
mixer [17]

Answer:x(t)= Acos(wt)

Explanation:

According to Newton's 2nd law,a particle of mass m acted on by a force is given by:Fs=-kx

Where x is displacement from equilibrium

K = spring constant

Therefore X(t) = Acos(2pit/T)

X(t)= Acos(wt)

Use Newton’s Universal Law of Gravitation to calculate the magnitude of the gravitational force between a 200 kg refrigerator an
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

3.735×10⁻⁶ N

Explanation:

From newton' s law of universal gravitation,

F = Gmm'/r² .............................. Equation 1

Where F = Gravitational force between the person and the refrigerator, m = mass of the person, m' = mass of the refrigerator, r = distance between the person and the refrigerator. G = gravitational universal constant.

Given: m = 70 kg, m' = 200 kg, r = 0.5 m

Constant: G = 6.67×10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg².

F = (6.67×10⁻¹¹×70×200)/0.5²

F = 93380×10⁻¹¹/0.25

F = 373520×10⁻¹¹

F = 3.735×10⁻⁶ N

Hence the force between the person and the refrigerator =  3.735×10⁻⁶ N
