Answer:

32 m

Explanation:

initial velocity (u) = 2 m/s

accceleration (a) = 3 m/s^{2}

time (t) = 4 s

What is the magnitude of the cart’s displacement (s) after the first 4.0 s of its motion?

from the equation of motion, displacement (s) = ut + 0.5at^{2}

where

  • u is the initial velocity
  • t is the time
  • a is the acceleration

inserting all required values into  (s) = ut + 0.5at^{2}          

(s) = 2x4 + 0.5x3x4^{2}

s = 8 + 24

s = 32 m

An ant can travel approximately 30 meters per minute. How many meters could an ant move in 45 minutes.
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

From what I see, it's saying that every minute, the ant can move 30 meters.  So how many meter would it move in 45 minutes?

30 meters = 1 min

x meters = 45 min

1 min x 45 = 45 min

30 meters x 45 = 1,350 meters

So, I believe the answer would be 1,350 meters.

hope this helps. :>

Your new motorcycle weighs 2450 N.
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

Mass can never be negative. Everything has mass. Just like how they ask you to find area under the graph in maths. If the area is in the 3rd and 4th quadrant, when calculated, you would get negative answer.However, area can not be negative because it is a place/ location. It's exactly the same as mass.

How much time does it take a dropped object to fall 180 m on Earth?
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

6s

Explanation:

Assume it is dropped from rest and the gravitational acceleration is 10

By the equation of motion under constant acceleration:

s=ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2

180 = (0)t+10(t^2)/2

t = 6 or -6 (rejected)

t = 6 s

Gravitational notes of physics ​
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

Every object in the universe attracts other object by a force of attraction, called gravitation, which is directly proportional to the product of masses of the objects and inversely proportional to the square of distance between them. This is called Law of Gravitation or Universal Law of Gravitation.

Let masses (M) and (m) of two objects are distance (d) apart. Let F be the attractional force between two masses.

Importance of The Universal Law of Gravitation

It binds us to the earth.

It is responsible for the motion of the moon around the earth.

It is responsible for the motion of planets around the Sun.

Gravitational force of moon causes tides in seas on earth.

Free Fall

When an object falls from any height under the influence of gravitational force only, it is known as free fall.

Acceleration Due to Gravity

When an object falls towards the earth there is a change in its acceleration due to the gravitational force of the earth. So this acceleration is called acceleration due to gravity.

The acceleration due to gravity is denoted by g.

The unit of g is same as the unit of acceleration, i.e., ms−2

Mathematical Expression for g

From the second law of motion, force is the product of mass and acceleration.

F = ma

For free fall, acceleration is replaced by acceleration due to gravity.

Therefore, force becomes:

F = mg ….(i)

But from Universal Law of Gravitation,

Factors Affecting the Value of g

As the radius of the earth increases from the poles to the equator, the value of g becomes greater at the poles than at the equator.

As we go at large heights, value of g decreases.

To Calculate the Value of g

Value of universal gravitational constant, G = 6.7 × 10–11 N m2/ kg2,

Mass of the earth, M = 6 × 1024 kg, and

Radius of the earth, R = 6.4 × 106 m

Putting all these values in equation (iii), we get:

Thus, the value of acceleration due to gravity of the earth, g = 9.8 m/s2.

Difference between Gravitation Constant (G) and Gravitational Acceleration (g)

S. No.

Gravitation Constant (G)

Gravitational acceleration (g)

1.

Its value is 6.67×10-11Nm2/kg2.

Its value is 9.8 m/s2.

2.

It is a scalar quantity.

It is a vactor quantity.

3.

Its value remains constant always and everywhere.

Its value varies at various places.

4.

Its unit is Nm2/kg2.

Its unit is m/s2.

Motion of Objects Under the Influence of Gravitational Force of the Earth

Let an object is falling towards earth with initial velocity u. Let its velocity, under the effect of gravitational acceleration g, changes to v after covering the height h in time t.

Then the three equations of motion can be represented as:

Velocity (v) after t seconds, v = u + ght

Height covered in t seconds, h = ut + ½gt2

Relation between v and u excluding t, v2 = u2 + 2gh

The value of g is taken as positive in case of the object is moving towards earth and taken as negative in case of the object is thrown in opposite direction of the earth.

Mass & weight

Mass (m)

The mass of a body is the quantity of matter contained in it.

Mass is a scalar quantity which has only magnitude but no direction.

Mass of a body always remains constant and does not change from place to place.

SI unit of mass is kilogram (kg).

Mass of a body can never be zero.

Weight (W)

The force with which an object is attracted towards the centre of the earth, is called the weight of the object.

Now, Force = m × a

But in case of earth, a = g

∴ F = m × g

But the force of attraction of earth on an object is called its weight (W).

∴ W = mg

As weight always acts vertically downwards, therefore, weight has both magnitude and direction and thus it is a vector quantity.

The weight of a body changes from place to place, depending on mass of object.

The SI unit of weight is Newton.

Weight of the object becomes zero if g is zero.

Weight of an Object on the Surface of Moon

Mass of an object is same on earth as well as on moon. But weight is different.

Weight of an object is given as,

Hence, weight of the object on the moon = (1/6) × its weight on the earth.

Try the following questions:

Q1. State the universal law of gravitation.

Q2. When we move from the poles to the equator, the value of g decreases. Why?

Q3. If two stones of 150 gm and 500 gm are dropped from a height, which stone will reach the surface of the earth first and why ?

Q4. Differentiate between weight and mass.

Q5. Why is the weight of an object on the moon 1/6th its weight on the earth??
