Answer:

the bowling ball, because it has more mass and therefore more inertia

Explanation:

As per law of inertia we know that if an object is having more inertia then it is difficult to change state of motion.

Inertia is the property of mass of an object which always resist to change the state of motion of the object.

If an object has more inertia then it is more difficult to change the state of motion.

Now we know that we have one bowling ball and one basket ball, since bowling ball is having more mass then it must have more inertia so it is difficult to start the motion in bowling ball.

So correct answer will be

the bowling ball, because it has more mass and therefore more inertia

Starting from Newton’s law of universal gravitation, show how to find the speed of the moon in its orbit from the earth-moon dis

WARRIOR [948]

Answer: 1010.92 m/s

Explanation:

According to Newton's law of universal gravitation:

$F=G\frac{Mm}{r^{2}}$ (1)

Where:

$F$ is the gravitational force between Earth and Moon

$G=6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}}$ is the Gravitational Constant

$M=5.972(10)^{24} kg$ is the mass of the Earth

$m=7.349(10)^{22} kg$ is the mass of the Moon

$r=3.9(10)^{8} m$ is the distance between the Earth and Moon

Asuming the orbit of the Moon around the Earth is a circular orbit, the Earth exerts a centripetal force on the moon, which is equal to $F$ :

$F=m.a_{C}$ (2)

Where $a_{C}$ is the centripetal acceleration given by:

$a_{C}=\frac{V^{2}}{r}$ (3)

Being $V$ the orbital velocity of the moon

Making (1)=(2):

$m.a_{C}=G\frac{Mm}{r^{2}}$ (4)

Simplifying:

$a_{C}=G\frac{M}{r^{2}}$ (5)

Making (5)=(3):

$\frac{V^{2}}{r}=G\frac{M}{r^{2}}$ (6)

Finding $V$ :

$V=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}$ (7)

$V=\sqrt{\frac{(6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}})(5.972(10)^{24} kg)}{3.9(10)^{8} m}}$ (8)

Finally:

$V=1010.92 m/s$

A baseball player friend of yours wants to determine his pitching speed. you have him stand on a ledge and throw the ball horizo

zhenek [66]

Answer:

The pitching speed of your friend is 33.20 m/s

Explanation:

Lets explain how to solve the problem

Your friend throw the ball horizontally that means the vertical initial

component of velocity is zero ( $u_{y}=0$ ).

The ball is thrown from a height 4 meters above the ground.

The height $h=u_{y}t+\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$

Remember: the height is negative value because its below the point of

thrown (initial position)

h = -4 m , $u_{y}=0$ and g = -9.8 m/s²(downward)

Substitute these values in the rule above

⇒ $4=0-\frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^{2}$

⇒ -4 = -4.9t² (multiply both sides by -1)

⇒ 4 = 4.9t² (divide both sides by 4.9)

⇒ 0.81633 = t² (take √ for both sides)

⇒ t = 0.9035

Then the time of the ball to land on the ground is 0.9035 seconds

The range of the ball on the ground is 30 m

The range $R=u_{x}*t$ , where $u_{x}$ is the horizontal

component of the initial velocity

R = 30 meters and t = 0.9035

⇒ $30=u_{x}(0.9035)$ (divide both sides by 0.9035)

⇒ $u_{x}=33.20$ m/s

The pitching speed of your friend is 33.20 m/s

A 1000 kg truck moving at 2.0 m/s runs into a concrete wall. It takes 0.5 s for the truck to completely stop. What is the magnit

Answer:

Momentum is given by

. Impulse is the change of momentum,

and is also equal to force times time:

Explanation:

Momentum before the collision is

Assuming the truck comes to a complete halt, the momentum after the collision is

The change in momentum,

, is initial minus final

This is called the impulse:

. Impulse is also equal (check the units) to force times time:

We can rearrange this expression to make

the subject:

−

4000

The negative sign just means the force acting is in the opposite direction to the initial momentum.

(This will be the average force acting during the collision: collisions are chaotic so the force is unlikely to be constant.)

What would be the weight of the moon if it were resting on the surface of the earth

kari74 [83]

We need to be careful here.
The calculation of the gravitational force between two objects
refers to the distance between their centers.
The minimum possible distance between the Earth's and moon's
centers is the sum of their radii (radiuses).

Earth's radius . . . . . 6,360 km = 6.36 x 10⁶ meters
Moon's radius . . . . . 1,738 km = 1.738 x 10⁶ meters
Sum of their radii = 8.098 x 10⁶ meters

Also:
Earth's mass . . . . . 5.972 x 10²⁴ kg
Moon's mass . . . . . 7.348 x 10²² kg

and now we're ready to go !

 Gravitational force =

 G M₁ M₂ / R²

= (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N-m²/kg²)(5.972 x 10²⁴ kg)(7.348 x 10²² kg)/(8.098 x 10⁶ m)²

= (6.67 · 5.972 · 7.348 / 8.098²) · (10²³) Newtons

= (I get ...) 4.463 x 10²³ Newtons

That's almost exactly 10²³ pounds

 = 50,153,000,000,000,000,000 tons.

Those are big numbers.
All I can say is: I wouldn't exactly call that "resting" on the surface".
