The Law of Universal Gravitation

- Gravity is an attractive force that pulls two objects toward one another.
Gravity is stronger coming from heavy objects when compared to light objects. The force of gravity weakens as the distance between objects increases.

- All objects in the universe feel the effects of gravity. Us humans feel the Earth’s gravitational pull towards its center. The Sun, which is larger than the other planets, pulls all of them toward itself, and each planet pulls back against the Sun. Since they are much smaller than the Sun, their pull is much weaker.

- Humans have a gravitational pull toward other humans, but it is weak and not noticeable. Therefore, the force of gravity diminishes with the decrease in size.

The force due of attraction between two bodies is proportional to the mass of both objects but inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

In billiards, the 0.165 kg cue ball is hit toward the 0.155 kg eight ball, which is stationary. The cue ball travels at 5.8 m/s

Damm [24]

Answer:

another ball velocity = 3.92 m/s and with 30° clockwise from initial direction

Explanation:

given data

mass m1 = 0.165 kg

mass m2 = 0.155 kg

before collision velocity v1 = 5.8 m/s

before collision velocity v2 = 0

angle = 35.0° from initial direction

after collision 1st ball velocity v3 = 3.2 m/s

to find out

after collision another ball velocity v4

solution

we consider here ball move in x axis and after collision 1st ball move upside of x axis with angle 35 degree and other ball move downside with x axis with angle θ

so from conservation of momentum we say

m1v1 = m1v3cos35 + m2v4cosθ with x axis .............1

m1v3sin35 = m2v4sinθ with y axis .............2

so from 1 equation

0.165 × 5.8 = 0.165(3.2)cos35 + 0.155(v4)cosθ

v4 cosθ = 3.38 .................3

form 2 equation

0.165(3.2)sin35 = 0.155(v4)sinθ

v4 sinθ = 1.95 ......................4

so magnitude of another ball velocity is square and adding equation 3 and 4

another ball velocity = √(3.39²+1.96²)

another ball velocity = 3.92 m/s

and direction is tanθ = 1.96/3.39

θ = 30° clockwise from initial direction

A 60-watt light bulb has a voltage of 120 bolts applied across it and a current of 0.5 amperes flows through the bulb. What is t

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

240 ohms

Explanation:

From Ohms law we deduce that V=IR and making R the subject of the formula then R=V/I where R is resistance, I is current and V is coltage across. Substituting 120 V for V and 0.5 A for A then

R=120/0.5=240 Ohms

Alternatively, resistance is equal to voltage squared divided by watts hence $\frac {120^{2}}{60}=240$

Bill leaves his 60 W desk lamp on every day, including weekends, for eight hours. After one month (30 days), how much total ener

maxonik [38]

' W ' is the symbol for 'Watt' ... the unit of power equal to 1 joule/second.

That's all the physics we need to know to answer this question.
The rest is just arithmetic.

(60 joules/sec) · (30 days) · (8 hours/day) · (3600 sec/hour)

= (60 · 30 · 8 · 3600) (joule · day · hour · sec) / (sec · day · hour)

= 51,840,000 joules
__________________________________

Wait a minute ! Hold up ! Hee haw ! Whoa !
Excuse me. That will never do.
I see they want the answer in units of kilowatt-hours (kWh).
In that case, it's

(60 watts) · (30 days) · (8 hours/day) · (1 kW/1,000 watts)

= (60 · 30 · 8 · 1 / 1,000) (watt · day · hour · kW / day · watt)

= 14.4 kW·hour

Rounded to the nearest whole number:

14 kWh
