If the gymnast mass were doubled, her height (h) from the top of the board would be as follows,

с  Stay the same

Explanation:

  • The Mass of an object or body does not affect the acceleration due to gravity in any kind of way.
  • Light weight objects accelerate more slowly than the heavy objects because when the forces other than the gravity also plays a major role.
  • Mass increases of a body when an object has higher velocity or the speed.
  • The greater the force of gravity, it would give a direct impact on the object's acceleration; thus considering only a force, the heavier the object is, it would accelerate faster. But an acceleration depends upon the two factors which are  force and mass.
  • Newton's second law of motion states that the acceleration of an object is dependent upon the two factors which are, the net force of an object and the mass of the object.

Increasing the two objects will cause the gravitational force between the objects to decrease.
ELEN [110]
This statement is false. Increasing the two objects' mass (I'm guessing) will actually increase their gravitational force. This is because of the equation:

F_g =  \frac{Gm_1m_2}{d^2}

If the distance was increased, then the statement would be true, but since you are increasing mass, which is proportional to the Force of Gravity, you are in fact, increasing the gravitational force between the two objects.

Two stones are launched from the top of a tall building. One stoneis thrown in a direction 30.0^\circ above the horizontal with
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

Part A)

t(1) > t(2), the stone thrown 30 above the horizontal spends more time in the air.

Part B)

x(f1) > x(f2), the first stone will land farther away from the building.

Explanation:

<u>Part A)</u>

Let's use the parabolic motion equation to solve it. Let's define the variables:

  • y(i) is the initial height, it is a constant.
  • y(f) is the final height, in our case is 0
  • v(i) is the initial velocity (v(i)=16 m/s)
  • θ1 is the first angle, 30°
  • θ2 is the first angle, -30°

For the first stone

y_{f1}=y_{i1}+v*sin(\theta_{1})t_{1}-0.5gt_{1}^{2}              

0=y_{i1}+16*sin(30)t_{1}-0.5*9.81*t_{1}^{2}

0=y_{i1}+8t_{1}-4.905*t_{1}^{2} (1)  

For the second stone  

0=y_{i2}+16*sin(-30)t_{2}-4.905t_{2}^{2}    

0=y_{i2}-8t_{2}-4.905t_{2}^{2} (2)            

 

If we solve the equation (1) we will have:

t_{1}=\frac{-8\pm \sqrt{64+19.62*y_{i}}}{-9.81}  

We can do the same procedure for the equation (2)

t_{1}=\frac{8\pm \sqrt{64+19.62*y_{i}}}{-9.81}

We can analyze each solution to see which one spends more time in the air.

It is easy to see that the value inside the square root of each equation is always greater than 8, assuming that the height of the building is > 0. Now, to get positive values of t(1) and t(2) we need to take the negative option of the square root.

Therefore, t(1) > t(2), it means that the stone thrown 30 above the horizontal spends more time in the air.

<u>Part B)</u>

We can use the equation of the horizontal position here.

<u>First stone</u>

x_{f1}=x_{i1}+vcos(30)t_{1}

x_{f1}=0+13.86*t_{1}

x_{f1}=13.86*t_{1}

<u>Second stone</u>

x_{2}=x_{i2}+vcos(-30)t_{2}

x_{1}=0+13.86*t_{1}

x_{1}=13.86*t_{2}

Knowing that t(1) > t(2) then x(f1) > x(f2)

Therefore, the first stone will land farther away from the building.

They land at different points at different times.

I hope it helps you!

Feng and Isaac are riding on a merry-ground. Feng rides on a horse at the outer rim of the circular platform, twice as far from
kogti [31]

Answer: The question is incomplete or missing details. here is the remaining part of the question ;

1. impossible to determine

2. half of Isaac’s

3. the same as Isaac’s

4. twice Isaac’s

The angular speed of feng will be the same as that of Isaac. Hence the answer is option 3

Explanation:

Since we have been told that both feng and isaac are riding on a merry go round i.e in a circular motion, irrespective of how fast one ride above the other, the angular speed will be constant since they are riding on a merry go round, as such both feng and isaac will maintain equal angular speed, hence the angular speed of feng will be the same as that of Isaac.
