Velocity is a vector quantity which has both magnitude and direction. ... Net force is also a vector quantity which has both mag

nitude and direction. Using complete sentences, describe the net force acting upon the object during the course of the elliptical orbit. Comment on both the magnitude and the direction.

When the object is moving in the elliptical orbit, it means that the direction of its acceleration should be towards the two foci (plural of focus) of the ellipse to keep the elliptical motion. As force according to the Newton's second law: F = ma, the net force must be in the direction of the acceleration. As far as the magnitude of net force is concerned, you can use Newton's gravitational law to find its magnitude.

The net force on an object moving in an elliptical path is the gravitational force. The force vector always points towards the object being orbited by the object following the elliptical orbit. In the case of the sun and earth, the force vector will always point towards the sun

The exact magnitude of the force is given by Newton's law of universal gravitation. The formula to calculate the magnitude of this force is ,F=\frac{GMm}{r^2}.

In this formula G is the universal gravitational constant, r is the distance between the two objects, M,m each represent the masses of the central object and the object orbiting it.  As a consequence we can tell that closer to the central object, the magnitude of the force will be larger than further away from the object.

Answer:

The speed of the 8-ball is 2.125 m/s after the collision.

Explanation:

<u>Law Of Conservation Of Linear Momentum</u>

The total momentum of a system of masses is conserved unless an external force is applied. The momentum of a body with mass m and velocity v is calculated as follows:

P=mv

If we have a system of masses, then the total momentum is the sum of all the individual momentums:

P=m_1v_1+m_2v_2+...+m_nv_n

When a collision occurs, the velocities change to v' and the final momentum is:

P'=m_1v'_1+m_2v'_2+...+m_nv'_n

In a system of two masses, the law of conservation of linear momentum is simplified to:

m_1v_1+m_2v_2=m_1v'_1+m_2v'_2

The m1=0.16 Kg 8-ball is initially at rest v1=0. It is hit by an m2=0.17 Kg cue ball that was moving at v2=2 m/s.

After the collision, the cue ball comes to rest v2'=0. It's required to find the final speed v1' after the collision.

The above equation is solved for v1':

\displaystyle v'_1=\frac{m_1v_1+m_2v_2-m_2v'_2}{m_1}

\displaystyle v'_1=\frac{0.16*0+0.17*2-0.17*0}{0.16}

\displaystyle v'_1=\frac{0.34}{0.16}

v'_1=2.125\ m/s

The speed of the 8-ball is 2.125 m/s after the collision.

sergey [27]

Answer:

P =40.69 atm

Explanation:

We need to find the approximate pressure at a depth of 400 m.

It can be calculated as follows :

P = Patm + ρgh

Put all the values,

P=1\ atm+1025 \times 9.81\times 400\times 9.8692\times 10^{-6}\ atm/Pa\\\\P=40.69\ atm

So, the approximate pressure is equal to 40.69 atm.
