Nope. It's called 'centripetal' acceleration. The force that created it MAY be gravitational, but it doesn't have to be. For things on the surface of the Earth moving in circles, it's never gravity.

A piece of string 2 meters and has a mass of 5g. On one end of the string hangs a 200 g mass. Find the tension of the string and
viktelen [127]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Length of the string, l = 2 m

Mass of the string, m=5\ g=5\times 10^{-3}\ kg

Hanged mass in the string, m'=200\ g=0.2\ kg

1. The tension in the string is given by :

T=m'g

T=0.2\times 9.8

T = 1.96 N

2. Velocity of the transverse wave in the string is given by :

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{M}}

m = M/l

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{Tl}{m}}

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{1.96\times 2}{5\times 10^{-3}}}

v = 28 m/s

Hence, this is the required solution.

Which statements apply to density? Check all that apply.
aivan3 [116]

The only statement on the options that says true about density is:> The density of an object determines whether it will sink or float.

Why?Density is a physical property of an object.

Density is not derived as a unit of measure. It is derived from 2 fundamental units: kg and m.

The Density of an object is not constant.

Density is calculated by dividing the mass by the volume of an object.

How far can a person run in 0.25 hr at a speed of 240 m/hr
denpristay [2]

Answer:

60 m/hr

Explanation:

Remember your equation d=r/t

Plug it in

Or you can think; if a person can run 240 m/hr that means that they can get 1/4 of the way in 1/4 of the time= 60 m

Which law describes what happens when two skaters push apart in a<br> rink? (Newton’s laws)
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

Newton's third law

Explanation:

Newton's Third Law of equal and opposite forces is very important when considering collisions between objects or propulsion. In these situations, all of the forces are internal, which means that for every force, there will be an equally sized force in the opposite direction. An example is two skaters out on the ice.
