An object is lifted from the surface of a spherical planet to an altitude equal to the radius of the planet.  

As a result, the object's <em>mass remains the same</em>, and its <em>weight decreases</em> to 1/4 of whatever it is when the object is on the planet's surface.

g According to the Third Law, the action and reaction forces are exactly equal in magnitude and in opposite directions. So when
torisob [31]

Answer:

One way to look at this is to consider the forces acting on any point in a string.

For a very small portion of string F = M a must still hold. As M approaches zero the small portion of string would have to approach infinite acceleration if the net force on that portion of string were not zero.

One generally considers the net force acting on the center of mass of an object not  the individual forces acting on each infinitesimal mass composing

the object.

A parallel-plate capacitor consists of two plates, each with an area of 27 cm^2 separated by 3.0 mm. The charge on the capacitor
aev [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Capacity of a parallel plate capacitor  C = ε₀ A/ d

ε₀ is permittivity whose value is 8.85 x 10⁻¹² , A is plate area and d is distance between plate.

C =(  8.85 X10⁻¹² X  27 X 10⁻⁴ ) / 3 X 10⁻³

= 79.65 X 10⁻¹³ F.

potential diff between plate = Charge / capacity

= 4.8 X 10⁻⁹ / 79.65 X 10⁻¹³

= 601 V

Electric field = V/d

= 601 / 3 x 10⁻³

= 2 x 10⁵ N/C

Force on proton

= charge x electric field

1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 2 x 10⁵

= 3.2 x 10⁻¹⁴

Acceleration a = force / mass

= 3.2 x 10⁻¹⁴ / 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷

= 1.9 x 10¹³ m s⁻²

Distance travelled by proton = 3 x 10⁻³

3 x 10⁻³ = 1/2 a t²

t = \sqrt{\frac{3\times2\times10^{-3}}{1.9\times10^{13}} }

t = 1.77 x 10⁻⁸ s

A group of rescue workers is rescuing a dog from a condemned building. Due to demolition, the building has no stairs leading to
zaharov [31]

Answer:

Minimize the elevation or jump distance

Explanation:

The only action that minimizes, the impact force is to reduce as much as possible the height of the jump, the dog, ie the height from the jump point of the building. Since at the time of the jump its speed will increase every second at the rate of 9 [m/ s], that is this low effect of the gravitational acceleration of 9 [m/s^2]

v_{f}=\sqrt{2*g*h}

where:

vf = final velocity [m/s]

g = gravity [m/s^2]

h = elevation [m]

As we can see while there is higher height, at a higher speed will impact the ground.

Nets used to catch falling boulders on the side of rocky hillside roadways
Natalija [7]

Answer:

more time to change the momentum of falling rocks

Explanation:

Momentum is related to "mass in motion." So, if an object is moving, then it has momentum as it has its mass in motion. The amount of momentum is dependent upon how much and how fast the object is moving.

If an object is moving slowly, it means that the object is losing momentum.

Nets used to catch falling boulders on the side of rocky hillside roadways  are more effective than rigid fences because their breakage is reduced by more time to change the momentum of falling rocks.
