What is the rate of acceleration due to gravity on Earth?

Physics
1 answer:
Katena32 [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Negative 9.8 meters per second squared

Explanation:

The negative is for the direction (down, towards the center of the earth). Often this can be estimated as -10 m/s^2 to make calculations easier.

A. In the building there are 133 steps from the ground floor to the sixth floor.
faust18 [17]

(a) The work done by the person is 18.83465 kJ.

(b) The average power performed by the person during the walk is 51.4 W.

(c) The amount of food calories burnt is 4.5 Cal.

<h3>Work done by the person</h3>

The work done by the person is calculated as follows;

W = Fd

W = mgh

W = (89.2 x 9.8) x (0.162 x 133)

W = 18,834.65 J

W = 18.83465 kJ

<h3>Average power of the person</h3>

P = Fv

where;

  • v is velocity

v = (d)/t

v = (133 x 0.162)/(6 x 60   +  6)

v = (133 x 0.162)/(366)

v = 0.0588 m/s

P = (89.2 x 9.8) x 0.0588

P = 51.4 W

<h3>Amount of food calories burnt</h3>

4.1868 kJ = 1 Cal

18.83465 kJ = ?

= 4.5 Cal

Explain in detail the birth life and death of a main sequence star give an example
galina1969 [7]
Birth Star:
Main sequence stars fuse hydrogen atoms to form helium atoms in their cores. About 90 percent of the stars in the universe, including the sun, are main sequence stars. These stars can range from about a tenth of the mass of the sun to up to 200 times as massive. Stars start their lives as clouds of dust and gas.
Death Star:
Dense regions in the clouds collapse and form "protostars". Initially, the gravitational energy of the collapsing star is the source of its energy. Once the star contracts enough that its central core can burn hydrogen to helium, it becomes a "main sequence" star.

3 objects that have gravitational potential energy?
WITCHER [35]
When an object is above the Earth's surface it has gravitational potential energy (GPE). The amount of GPE an object has depends on its mass and its height above the Earth's surface.
The weight of an object is the size of the force of gravity pulling the object down. When an object falls it transfers GPE to KE (kinetic energy).
