Answer: It is the same amount of weight as the girl is putting on the pogo stick. When you are pushing something downward then gravity will push back with the equal amount of force.

For a short time the missile moves along the parabolic path y=(18−2x2) km. If motion along the ground is measured as x=(4t−3) km
muminat

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

y=(18-2x^2) km

x=(4t-3)km

Differentiate x and y w.r.t t

\frac{dx}{dt}=4

\frac{dy}{dt}=-4x\frac{dx}{dt}

\frac{dy}{dt}=-4x\times 4=-16x=-16(4t-3)

v_x=\frac{dx}{dt}=4

v_y=\frac{dy}{dt}=-16(4t-3)

Substitute t=1

v_x=4

v_y=-16(4-3)=-16

Magnitude of velocity=\mid v\mid=\sqrt{v^2_x+v^2_y}

\mid v\mid=\sqrt{4^2+(-16)^2}=16.49 m/s

Hence, the magnitude of the missile's velocity=16.49 m/s

a_x=\frac{d(\frac{dx}{dt})}{dt}=\frac{d(4)}{dt}=0

a_y=\frac{d(\frac{dy}{dt})}{dt}=\frac{d(-16(4t-3))}{dt}=-64

Substitute t=1

a_x=0,a_y=-64

\mid a\mid=\sqrt{a^2_x+a^2_y}

\mid a\mid=\sqrt{0+(-64)^2}=64m/s^2

Hence, the magnitude of acceleration when t=1 s=64m/s^2

Explain how the mass of a planet affects the motion of the planet around the sun?
vodomira [7]

Answer:

The gravitational attraction of the Sun is what holds the planets in their elliptical orbits. So to explain this the mass effects the motion of the planets because the strength of gravitational force depends of the mass.

action and reaction are equal in magnitude and opposite direction then why they don't balance each other
Harrizon [31]
Action and reaction are equal in magnitude and opposite direction by they don't balance each other because they don't occur on the same body. Action is involved on one body and reaction is involved on another body.
