How does the force of gravity affect the rate of acceleration?

1 answer:

3 0

Gravity lets all objects fall to the ground at the same speed, 9.8 m/s/s. If the force of gravity were stronger, such as 10 m/s/s, the rate of acceleration would be faster.

A car travels 554 miles south in 10.4 hours . what is the velocity of the car ? show all steps

kirill115 [55]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 53.27 mi/hr</h3>

Explanation:

To find the velocity covered by the car we use the formula

$v = \frac{d}{t} \\$

where

d is the distance

t is the time

From the question

d = 554 miles

t = 10.4 hrs

We have

$d = \frac{554}{10.4} \\ = 53.2692307...$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

Deimos's Orbit. Deimos orbits Mars at a distance of 23,460 km from the center of the planet and has a period of 1.263 days. Assu

mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

M = 5.882 10²³ kg

Explanation:

Let's use Newton's second law to analyze the satellite orbit around Mars.

F = m a

force is universal attraction and acceleration is centripetal

a = v²/ R

the modulus of velocity in a circular orbit is constant

v= d/T

the distance of the cicule is

d =2pi R

a = 2pi R/T

we substitute

- G m M / R² = m ( $- \frac{4\pi^2 R^2 }{T^2 R}$ )

G M = $\frac{ 4\pi ^2 R^3 }{T^2 }$

M = $\frac{4 \pi ^2 R^3 }{ G T^2 }$

the distance R is the distance from the center of the planet Mars to the center of the satellite Deimos

R = 23460 km = 2.3460 10⁷ m

the period of the orbit is

T = 1,263 days = 1,263 day (24 h / 1 day) (3600s / h)

T = 1.0912 10⁵ s

let's calculate

M = $\frac{4 \pi ^2 ( 2.3460 \ 10^7)^3 }{5.67 10^{-11} \ (1.0912 \ 10^5)^2 }$

M = 509.73418 10²¹ /8.66640 10⁻¹

M = 58.817 10²² kg

M = 5.882 10²³ kg

The current in a hair dryer measures 11 amps. The resistance of the hair dryer is 12 ohms. What is the voltage?

Valentin [98]

Voltage is given by the formula

V = IR (Ohms law)

where V is the Voltage

I is the current

and R is the Resistance

Here it is given that the current is I=11

Resistance is R =12

so plugging this in the formula

V = IR

V= 11 * 12

V= 132 Volts

So the Voltage for the given dryer is 132 Volts

A box of mass 20kg is pulled up an inclined plane by a force of 285N. Given that the value of the incline angle is 30 degrees an

docker41 [41]

Given :

Mass of box , m = 250 kg.

Force applied , F = 285 N.

The value of the incline angle is 30°.

the coefficient of dynamic friction is $\mu=0.72$ .

To Find :

The speed with which the box is moving with, assuming it takes 4 seconds to reach the top of the incline.

Solution :

Net force applied in box is :

$F=285 - mgsin\ \theta - \mu mg cos \ \theta\\ \\F=285-mg( sin \ \theta - \mu cos\ \theta)\\\\F=285 - 20\times 10( \dfrac{1}{2}+0.72\times \dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2})\\\\F=60.29\ N$

Acceleration , $a=\dfrac{F}{m}=\dfrac{60.29}{20}=3.01\ m/s^2$ .

By equation of motion :

$v=u+at\\\\v=0+3.01\times 4\\\\v=12.04\ m/s$

Therefore, the speed of box is 12.04 m/s.

Hence, this is the required solution.
