What is the definition of gravity in simple terms?

Tema [17]

Answer:

Gravity, also called gravitation, in mechanics, the universal force of attraction acting between all matter. ... On Earth all bodies have a weight, or downward force of gravity, proportional to their mass, which Earth's mass exerts on them. Gravity is measured by the acceleration that it gives to freely falling objects

1 : A force of attraction that tends to draw particles or bodies together.

2 : The attraction of bodies by the force of gravity toward the center of the earth.

3 : Great seriousness.

There is a 50 g sample of Ra-229. It has a half-life of 4 minutes.

Sloan [31]

Via half-life equation we have:

$A_{final}=A_{initial}(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{h} }$

Where the initial amount is 50 grams, half-life is 4 minutes, and time elapsed is 12 minutes. By plugging those values in we get:

$A_{final}=50(\frac{1}{2})^\frac{12}{4}=50(\frac{1}{2})^{3}=50(\frac{1}{8})=6.25g$

There is 6.25 grams left of Ra-229 after 12 minutes.

To the nearest square foot, how many square feet are there in an area of 4.4 square meters?

vichka [17]

Answer:

4.4 square meters = 47 square foot

Explanation:

We have

1 meter = 3.28084 foot

1 square meter = 3.28084 x 3.28084 square foot = 10.76 square foot

4.4 square meters = 4.4 x 10.76 = 47.36 square foot = 47 square foot

4.4 square meters = 47 square foot

If you pull horizontally on a desk with a force of 150 N and the desk doesn't move, the friction force must be 150 N. Now if you

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

The friction force is 250 N

Explanation:

The desk is moving at constant velocity. This means that its acceleration is zero: a = 0. Newton's second law states that the resultant of the forces acting on the desk is equal to the product between mass (m) and acceleration (a):

$\sum F=ma$

In this case, we know that the acceleration is zero: a = 0, so also the resultant of the forces must be zero:

$\sum F = 0$ (1)

We are only interested in the forces acting along the horizontal direction, since it is the direction of motion. There are two forces acting in this direction:

- the pull, forward, F = 250 N

- the friction force, backward, $F_f$
