<h2>Right answer: acceleration due to gravity is always the same </h2><h2 />

According to the experiments done and currently verified, in vacuum (this means there is not air or any fluid), all objects in free fall experience the same acceleration, which is <u>the acceleration of gravity</u>.

Now, in this case we are on Earth, so the gravity value is $9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}$

Note the objects experience the acceleration of gravity regardless of their mass.

Nevertheless, on Earth we have air, hence <u>air resistance</u>, so the afirmation <em>"Free fall is a situation in which the only force acting upon an object is gravity" </em>is not completely true on Earth, unless the following condition is fulfiled:

If the air resistance is <u>too small</u> that we can approximate it to <u>zero</u> in the calculations, then in free fall the objects will accelerate downwards at $9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ and hit the ground at approximately the same time.

The fast French train known as the TGV (Train à Grande Vitesse) has a scheduled average speed of 216 km/h. (a) If the train goes

faust18 [17]

Answer:

a) r = 6122 m and b) v = 32.5 m / s

Explanation:

a) The train in the curve is subject to centripetal acceleration

a = v2 / r

Where v is The speed and r the radius of the curve

They indicate that the maximum acceleration of the person is 0.060g,

a = 0.060 g

a = 0.060 9.8

a = 0.588 m /s²

Let's calculate the radius

v = 216 km / h (1000m / 1km) (1 h / 3600 s =

v = 60 m / s

r = v² / a

r = 60² /0.588

r = 6122 m

b) Let's calculate the speed, for a radius curve 1.80 km = 1800 m

v = √a r

v = √( 0.588 1800)

v = 32.5 m / s

A 2000 kg car experiences a constant braking

bezimeni [28]

Solving for acceleration:

F = ma
10000 = 2000*a
a = 5 m/s^2

Solving for velocity:

Vf = Vi + a(t)
0 = Vi - (5)(6)
Vi = 30 m/s

Solving for displacement or distance:

S = Vi*t - 1/2 * a * t^2
S = 30(6) - 1/2 (5)(6)^2
S = 90m

The car would have traveled 90m before coming to rest.

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

When Helium is identified by astronomers is one of the great triumphs of spectroscopy.

Explanation:

Janssen managed to do this great triumphs on August 18, 1868 . Janssen was the first person to introduce the helium, an element that never seen before on Earth, in the solar spectrum. At that time, he didn’t know that what he’d seen—he just think that it was something new. In the mid of 1800, the spectroscope instrument is introduced in astronomy.

Later on we heard that all helium in Universe has been created by the fusion of hydrogen nuclei.

A fiber-optic rod consists of a central strand of material surrounded by an outer coating. The interior portion of the rod has a

matrenka [14]

Answer:

The refractive index of the outer coating is 1.52.

Explanation:

Refractive index of interior part, n' = 1.97

critical angle, C = 50.4°

Let the refractive index of the coating is n.

Use the Snell's law,

$n\times sin r = n'\times sinC\\\\n\times sin 90 = 1.97 \times sin 50.4\\\\n = 1.52$
