The mass of an object affects how powerful the attractive force is. To feel the pull / gravitation the mass of the object would have to be huge, bigger than that of massive buildings

Because there is a far more massive nearby object that's attracting you to it. That object is the planet you're standing on. Compared to its mass, that massive building could just as well be a speck of dust or a clump of lint. The gravitational attraction toward Earth completely swamps out the attraction toward anything else.

Suppose that a car traveling to the west (the - x direction) begins to slow down as it approaches a traffic light. Which stateme

Amanda [17]

Answer:

(A) it's acceleration is negative but but it's velocity is positive

Explanation:

In the question it is given that begins to slow down so its speed is decreasing it is does not means that its speed is negative

For example let first the velocity of the car is 30 m/sec and when its velocity decreases it becomes 20 m/sec in 5 sec

So it is not negative at all

Now the acceleration is the rate of change of velocity

$a=\frac{dv}{dt}$

$a=\frac{v_2-v_1}{dt}=\frac{20-30}{5}=-2 m/sec^2$

So acceleration is negative here

So option (a) will be the correct option

George determines the mass of his evaporating dish to be 3.375 g. He adds a solid sample to the evaporating dish, and the mass o

zhannawk [14.2K]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

Mass of evaporating dish = 3.375 g

Total mass = Mass of solid sample + evaporating dish

That is, Mass of solid sample + evaporating dish = 26.719 g

Therefore, we will calculate the mass of solid sample as follows.

Mass of solid sample = (Mass of solid sample + evaporating dish) - mass of evaporating dish

= 26.719 g – 3.375 g

= 23.344 g

Thus, we can conclude that mass of his solid sample must be 23.344 g.

A potter's wheel is spinning with an initial angular velocity of 11 rad/s . It rotates through an angle of 80.0 rad in the proce

Grace [21]

The angular acceleration of the wheel approximately <u>-0.76 rad/s² or proportionally as deceleration approximately 0.76 rad/s</u>.
It need approximately <u>14.474 s</u> to come to rest.

<h2>Introduction</h2>

Hi ! I will help you to discuss about Proportionally Changes in Circular Motion. The analogy of proportionally changes in circular motion is same as the analogy of proportionally changes in direct motion. Here you will hear again the terms acceleration and change in speed, only expressed in the form of a certain angle coverage. Before that, in circular motion, it is necessary to know the following conditions:

1 rotation = 2π rad
1 rps = 2π rad/s
1 rpm = $\sf{\frac{1}{60} \: rps}$ = $\sf{\frac{1}{30}\pi \: rad/s}$

<h2>Formula Used</h2>

The following equations apply to proportionally changes circular motion:

<h3>Relationship between Angular Acceleration and Change of Angular Velocity </h3>

$\boxed{\sf{\bold{\omega_t = \omega_0 + \alpha \times t}}}$

With the following conditions:

$\sf{\omega_t}$ = final angular velocity (rad/s)
$\sf{\omega_0}$ = initial angular velocity (rad/s)
$\sf{\alpha}$ = angular acceleration (rad/s²)
t = interval of the time (s)

<h3>Relationship between Angular Acceleration and Change of $\sf{\theta}$ (Angle of Rotation) </h3>

$\boxed{\sf{\bold{\theta = \omega_0 \times t + \frac{1}{2} \times \alpha \times t^2}}}$

Or

$\boxed{\sf{\bold{(\omega_t)^2= (\omega_0)^2 + 2 \times \alpha \times \theta}}}$

With the following condition :

$\sf{\theta}$ = change of the sudut (rad)
$\sf{\alpha}$ = angular acceleration (rad/s²)
t = interval of the time (s)
$\sf{\omega_t}$ = final angular velocity (rad/s)
$\sf{\omega_0}$ = initial angular velocity (rad/s)

<h2>Problem Solving</h2>

We know that :

$\sf{\omega_t}$ = final angular velocity = 0 rad/s >> see in the sentence "in the process of coming to rest."
$\sf{\omega_0}$ = initial angular velocity = 11 rad/s
$\sf{\theta}$ = change of the sudut = 80.0 rad

What was asked :

$\sf{\alpha}$ = angular acceleration = ... rad/s²
t = interval of the time = ... s

Step by step :

$\sf{\alpha}$ = ... rad/s²

$\sf{(\omega_t)^2= (\omega_0)^2 + 2 \times \alpha \times \theta}$

$\sf{0^2= (11)^2 + 2 \times \alpha \times 80}$

$\sf{0 = 121 + 160 \alpha}$

$\sf{-160 \alpha = 121}$

$\sf{\alpha = \frac{121}{-160}}$

$\sf{\alpha = -0.75625 \: rad/s^2 \approx \boxed{-0.76 \: rad/s^2}}$

t = ... s

$\sf{\alpha = \frac{\omega_0 - \omega_t}{t}}$

$\sf{-0.76 = \frac{0 - 11}{t}}$

$\sf{-0.76t = -11}$

$\sf{t = \frac{- 11}{-0.76}}$

$\boxed{\sf{t \approx 14.474 \: s}}$

<h3>Conclusion</h3>

So :

The angular acceleration of the wheel approximately -0.76 rad/s² or proportionally as deceleration approximately 0.76 rad/s.
It need approximately 14.474 s to come to rest.
