Answer:

False.

Explanation:

Newton's 3rd Law tells us that if two objects interact via some force, then the value one exerts on the other have the same magnitude but opposite directions. Newton's 2nd Law tells us that the value of this force is F=ma. So, for two objects with different masses, if the forces they are exerting on each other are equal (as they must be by Newton's 3rd Law), the accelerations they are experimenting must necessarily be different.

Consider a semi-spherical bowl machined out of wood (A drawing of a semi-spherical bowl can be found in UNIT- 4 Introduction, so
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

The total surface are of the bowl is given by: 0.0532*pi m² (approximately 0.166533 m²)

Explanation:

The total surface area of the semi-spherical bowl can be decomposed in three different sections: 1) an outer semi-sphere of radius 12 cm, 2) an inner semi-sphere of radius 10 cm, and 3) the edge, which is a 2-dimensional ring with internal radius of 10 cm and external radius of 12 cm. We will compute the areas independently and then sum them all.

a) Outer semi-sphere:

A1 = 2*pi*r² = 2*pi*(12 cm)² = 288*pi cm² = 904.78 cm²

b) Inner semi-sphere:

A2 = 2*pi*(10 cm)² = 200*pi cm² = 628.32 cm²

c) Edge (Ring):

A3 = pi*(r1² - r2²) = pi*((12 cm)²-(10 cm)²) = pi*(144-100) cm² = 44*pi cm² = 138.23 cm²

Therefore, the total surface area of the bowl is given by:

A = A1 + A2 + A3 = 288*pi cm² + 200*pi cm² + 44*pi cm² = 532*pi cm² (approximately 1665.33 cm²)

Changing units to m², as required in the problem, we get:

A = 532*pi cm² * (1 m² / 10, 000 cm²) = 0.0532*pi m² (approximately 0.166533 m²)

3- (a) What is the period of rotation of Earth in seconds? (b) What is the angular velocity of Earth? (c) Given that Earth has a
ASHA 777 [7]

Explanation:

a) The Earth makes 1 rotation in 24 hours.  In seconds:

24 hr × (3600 s / hr) = 86400 s

b) 1 rotation is 2π radians.  So the angular velocity is:

2π rad / 86400 s = 7.27×10⁻⁵ rad/s

c) The earth's linear velocity is the angular velocity times the radius:

40075 km × 7.27×10⁻⁵ rad/s = 2.91 km/s

The primary source of evidence proposed by many scientist to support the theory of an ancient earth is ____ dating.
vova2212 [387]
It depends on your definition of “ancient.” Radiometric dating using Carbon-14 can reliably date back to about 50,000 years, uranium-lead or lead-lead dating can date back multiple millions, potassium-argon dating can reach 1.5 billion, and rubidium-strontium can reach 50 billion (nearly 4x the age of the universe). It depends on the context in which this question is being asked.

A diver springs upward from a board that is 4.40 m above the water. At the instant she contacts the water her speed is 13.5 m/s
Yakvenalex [24]

The diver has the initial velocity, both (a) magnitude is 9.8 m/s and (b) direction is  73.5°.

<h3>What is free falling?</h3>

When an object is released from rest in free air considering no friction, the motion is depend only on the acceleration due to gravity, g.

If we drop an object of mass m near the Earth surface from a height h, it has initial mechanical energy(P.E)

U =mgh

When the object strikes the ground, all the potential energy converted into kinetic energy.

K.E = 1/2mv²

where v is the speed just before hitting the ground.

A diver springs upward from a board that is 4.40 m above the water. At the instant, she contacts the water her speed is 13.5 m/s and her body makes an angle of 78.1 ° with respect to the horizontal surface of the water.

(a)

From energy conservation principle, initial and final mechanical energy are equal.

1/2mu² + mgh = 1/2mv²

where, u is the initial velocity of the diver.

u = sq rt  (v² - 2gh)

u = sq rt (13.5² - 2x9.81x4.4)

u = 9.798 m/s or 9.8 m/s

Thus, the velocity of the diver is 9.8 m/s.

(b)

The horizontal component of velocity will remain constant.

The horizontal component of acceleration is zero.

Then,

ucosθ = vcosΦ

θ = cos⁻¹ [ (13.5 x cos 78.1)/9.8 ]

θ = 73.5°

Thus, the direction of velocity is  73.5°.

Use Newton's laws to explain why a falling object dropped from a 57m tower accelerates initially but then reaches constant veloc
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

At the point of dropping the object, by Newton's first law due to gravitational force F_g = m × g, accelerates

By Newton's Second law the object reaches impacts on the air with the gravitational force resulting in changing momentum of m×(Final Velocity - Initial Velocity)

As the velocity increases, the rate of change of momentum becomes equivalent to the gravitational force and by Newton's third law, the action action and reaction are equal and opposite hence they cancel each other out

The body then moves at a constant uniform motion down according to Newton's first law

Explanation:

At the point the object of mass, m, is dropped from the height of the tower, the only force acting on the object is the gravitational force such that the object has an acceleration which is the acceleration due to gravity, g, and the gravitational force is therefore = m × g

As the speed of the object increases while the object is falling with the gravitational acceleration the rate at which the object cuts through layers of air which (by Newton's first law of motion, are at rest ) has some buoyancy effect also increases therefore, the object is constantly increasingly changing the momentum of the air which by Newton's second law results, at an high enough velocity, and by Newton's third law, in a force equal to the applied gravitational force

Therefore, the force of the air drag becomes equal to the gravitational force, cancelling each other out and the object then moves according to Newton;s first law, in uniform motion of a constant speed while still falling down.
