Discuss how a photon (aka the light particle) can be affected by gravity despite being massless.

Physics
1 answer:
Over [174]3 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

Light is clearly affected by gravity, just think about a black hole, but light supposedly has no mass and gravity only affects objects with mass. On the other hand, if light does have mass then doesn't mass become infinitely larger the closer to the speed of light an object travels.

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

<h2>4.5 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question we have

force = 0.75 × 6 = 4.5

We have the final answer as

<h3>4.5 N</h3>

The energy released by the exploding gunpowder in a cannon propels the cannonball forward. Simultaneously the cannon recoils. Wh
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

The launched cannonball

Explanation:

Consider,

The mass of the cannonball, m

The mass of the cannon, M =  1000 m

The velocity of the cannon, V

The velocity of the cannonball, v = 100 V

The K.E of the cannon, K.E = ½ MV²

The K.E of the cannonball, k.e = ½ mv²

Substituting the values in the K.E of the cannon

                                     ½ MV² = ½ x 1000 m x (v/100² )

                                                 = ½ mv²/ 10

Therefore,                    ½ mv² = 10 x  ½ MV²

The K.E of the cannonball is 10 times the K.E of the cannon.

Hence, the cannonball has a grater K.E
