Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

The acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Moon is approximately 1.625 m/s2, about 16.6% that on Earth's surface or 0.166 ɡ.

gravity of the moon is 1.62 m/s²

A box slides down a ramp inclined at 24◦ to the horizontal with an acceleration of 1.7 m/s 2 . The acceleration of gravity is 9.
dsp73

Answer:

<h3>0.445</h3>

Explanation:

In friction, the coefficient of friction formula is expressed as;

\mu = \frac{F_f}{R}

Ff is the frictional force = Wsinθ

R is the reaction = Wcosθ

Substitute inti the equation;

\mu = \frac{Wsin \theta}{W cos\theta} \\\mu = \frac{sin \theta}{cos\theta} \\\mu = tan \theta

Given

θ = 24°

\mu = tan 24^0\\\mu = 0.445\\

Hence the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the ramp is 0.445

If gravity did not affect the pain of a horizontally thrown ball the ball would
Drupady [299]

If gravity had no effect on a ball after you threw it ... and there also
were no air to slow it down ... then the ball would continue traveling
in a straight line, in whatever direction you threw it. 

That's the heart and soul of Newton's laws of motion ... any object
keeps moving at the same speed, and in a straight line in the same
direction, until a force acts on it to change its speed or direction.\

If you threw the ball horizontally, then it would keep moving in the
same direction you threw it.  But don't forget:  The Earth is not flat.
The Earth is a sphere.  So, as the ball kept going farther and farther
in the same straight line, the Earth would curve away from it, and it
would look like the ball is getting farther and farther from the ground.

Now, let's see what happens when the cannon is high above the ground. Click on the cannon, and drag it upward as far as it goes
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

<h2>B. 20°</h2>

Explanation:

Range in projectile is defined as the distance covered in the horizontal direction. It is expressed as R = U²sin2Ф/g

U is the initial velocity of the body (in m/s)

Ф is the angle of projection

g is the acceleration due to gravity.

Given U = 14m/s, g = 9.8m/s and range R = 15 m

we will substitute this value into the formula to get the projection angle Ф as shown;

15 = 15²sin2Ф/9.8

15*9.8 = 15²sin2Ф

147 = 225sin2Ф

sin2Ф = 147/225

sin2Ф = 0.6533

2Ф = sin⁻¹0.6533

2Ф = 40.79°

Ф = 40.79°/2

Ф = 20.39° ≈ 20°

Hence, the range is greatest at angle 20°
