Jasper and Gemma are going to play on a teeter totter. Gemma gets on first. When Jasper gets on, Gemma moves into the air, but s

he does not move to the top. Which statement could correctly explain the forces acting on the teeter totter? The forces are balanced because Jasper weighs the same as Gemma.  The forces are unbalanced because Jasper weighs the same as Gemma.  The forces are balanced because Jasper weighs more than Gemma.  The forces are unbalanced because Jasper weighs more than Gemma.

The forces are unbalanced because Jasper weighs more than Gemma
The side that Gemma is on will only move upwards if the force exerted on the other side is greater than the force exerted by Gemma. In this case, force is referring to the weight of the children. Therefore, in order for Gemma to go upwards, Jasper must weigh more than her.

If a car crashes into another car like this, the wreck should go nowhere. Besides this being an unrealistic question, the physics of it would look like this:

Momentum before and after the collision is conserved.

Momentum before the collision:
p = m * v = 50000kg * 24m/s + 55000kg * 0m/s = 50000kg * 24m/s
Momentum after the collision:
p = m * v = (50000kg + 55000kg) * v

Setting both momenta equal:
50000kg * 24m/s = (50000kg + 55000kg) * v

Solving for the velocity v:
v = 50000kg * 24m/s/(50000kg + 55000kg) = 11,43m/s

In this problem, you will answer several questions that will help you better understand the moment of inertia, its properties, a
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

a)  Total mass form, density and axis of rotation location are  True

b)   I = m r²

Explanation:

a) The moment of inertia is the inertia of the rotational movement is defined as

       I = ∫ r² dm

Where r is the distance from the pivot point and m the difference in body mass

In general, mass is expressed through density

        ρ = m / V

        dm = ρ dV

From these two equations we can see that the moment of inertia depends on mass, density and distance

Let's examine the statements, the moment of inertia depends on

- Linear speed       False

- Acceleration angular False

-  Total mass form True

-  density True

- axis of rotation location   True

b) we calculate the moment of inertia of a particle

For a particle the mass is at a point whereby the integral is immediate, where the moment of inertia is

          I = m r²

What is the net force​
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

20 N in West direction.

Explanation:

opposite forces cancel each other. so 20 N in north and 20N in south cancel each other. In west and east direction...

70N in west-50N in east= 20N in west

A satellite orbits a planet of unknown mass in a circular orbit of radius 2.3 x 104 km. The gravitational force on the satellite
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

The  kinetic energy is KE  =  7.59  *10^{10} \  J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

       The  radius of the orbit is  r =  2.3 *10^{4} \ km  = 2.3  *10^{7} \ m

       The gravitational force is  F_g  = 6600 \ N

The kinetic energy of the satellite is mathematically represented as

       KE  =  \frac{1}{2} * mv^2

where v is the speed of the satellite which is mathematically represented as

     v  = \sqrt{\frac{G  M}{r^2} }

=>  v^2  =  \frac{GM }{r}

substituting this into the equation

      KE  =  \frac{ 1}{2} *\frac{GMm}{r}

Now the gravitational force of the planet is mathematically represented as

      F_g  = \frac{GMm}{r^2}

Where M is the mass of the planet and  m is the mass of the satellite

 Now looking at the formula for KE we see that we can represent it as

     KE  =  \frac{ 1}{2} *[\frac{GMm}{r^2}] * r

=>    KE  =  \frac{ 1}{2} *F_g * r

substituting values

       KE  =  \frac{ 1}{2} *6600 * 2.3*10^{7}

         KE  =  7.59  *10^{10} \  J
