The force of gravity is that amount of attractive force which is exerted between two bodies on each other.

As per Newton's law of gravitation the force of gravity is directly  proportional to the product of the masses of the two bodies  and inversely proportional to the square of separation distance between them.

Mathematically F= G\frac{m_{1}*m_{1}  }{r^2}

Here G is the gravitational constant whose value is 6.67×10^{-11} } N m^2kg^-2

As per the question the masses of the objects are increased keeping the separation distance same.

As force of gravity ∝ product of masses of two bodies,

Hence the force of gravity  increases with the increase of mass.

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

Power = 377.35 W or Power = 0.5065 hp

Explanation:

Given:

Number of steps, n = 1576

height of each step, h = 0.20 m

Total height achieved, H = nh = 1576 × 0.20 = 315.2 m

Mass of the runner, M = 70.0 kg

Total time taken, t = 9 minutes 33 seconds = (9 × 60) + 33 = 573 seconds

Now, the potential energy gained by the runner,

E = MgH

where, g is the acceleration due to the gravity

on substituting the values in the above formula, we get

E = 70 × 9.8 × 315.2

or

E = 216227.2 J

also,

Energy = Power × time

therefore,

Power = Energy/time

or

Power = 216227.2 J / 573

or

Power = 377.35 W

Now,

745 watt = 1 hp

or

1 watt = 1/745 hp

thus,

Power = 377.35 W = 337.35 × (1/745) hp

or

Power = 0.5065 hp

A diver comes off a board with arms straight up and legs straight down, giving her a moment of inertia about her rotation axis o
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

θ₁ = 0.5 revolution

Explanation:

We will use the conservation of angular momentum as follows:

L_1=L_2\\I_1\omega_1=I_2\omega_2

where,

I₁ = initial moment of inertia = 18 kg.m²

I₂ = Final moment of inertia = 3.6 kg.m²

ω₁ = initial angular velocity = ?

ω₂ = Final Angular velocity = \frac{\theta_2}{t_2} = \frac{2\ rev}{1.2\ s} = 1.67 rev/s

Therefore,

(18\ kg.m^2)\omega_1 = (3.6\ kg.m^2)(1.67\ rev/s)\\\\\omega_1 = \frac{(3.6\ kg.m^2)(1.67\ rev/s)}{(18\ kg.m^2)}\\\\\omega_1 = \frac{\theta_1}{t_1} =  0.333\ rev/s\\\\\theta_1 = (0.333\ rev/s)t_1

where,

θ₁ = revolutions if she had not tucked at all = ?

t₁ = time = 1.5 s

Therefore,

\theta_1 = (0.333\ rev/s)(1.5\ s)\\

<u>θ₁ = 0.5 revolution</u>

A 3.80-m-long, 500 kg steel beam extends horizontally from the point where it has been bolted to the framework of a new building
Virty [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

The question is ;

3.80 m-long, 500. kg steel beam extends horizontally from the point

where it has been bolted to the framework of a new building under

construction. A 67.0 kg construction worker stands at the far end of

the beam. What is the magnitude of the torque about the point where the beam is bolted into place?

Solution:

Here two torques are in action

a) torque T1 due to weight of worker at the edge of the beam - at center of the beam

b) torque T2 due to weight of the uniform beam - at the point where the beam is bolted

So we first calculate the torque produced due to weight of the worker;

We can see that;

Distance of worker from the center of the beam = 1.9m

Mass of the worker = 67 kg

Value of g= 9.8 m/sec2

T1=force × distance from point of rotation

Here force is weight of the worker which is = mass × g=67×9.8=656.6 N

So the torque is

T1= 656.6×1.9=12225.892 Nm

or

T1 = 12225.892 Nm

Now torque by the beam itself ;

Length of the beam from its center point to the bolt point = 1.9 m

Weight force of beam acting at center point= mass× g= 500×9.8=4900 N

Torque T2 at bolt point by the beam weight = weight of beam × length of beam from its center to the bolt point = 4900×1.9=9310 Nm

T2=9310Nm

So total torque = T1+T2= 12225.892+9310=21565.892 Nm
