An astronaut of mass m in a spacecraft experiences a gravitational force F=mg when stationary on the launchpad.

gravitational force is the attraction force of earth on an object which is near the surface of earth

It will not depend on the velocity or acceleration of earth

So it will not change while an object is stationary or it is moving with some acceleration

So here we will say that force will remain the same

F = mg

a spring has a force constant of 100 n/m and an unstretched length of 0.07 m. one end is attached to a post that is free to rota
Digiron [165]

F equals 3N with respect to the circle's center, moving in the same direction as the centripetal acceleration.

<h3>How much centripetal force is there in a centrifuge?</h3>

Centripetal force is the force that pushes an item in the direction of its center of curvature. It is fundamental to how a centrifuge operates.

<h3>On a roller coaster, what is centripetal force?</h3>

An item travelling in a circle is pushed inward toward what is known as the center of rotation, which is essentially what a roller coaster accomplishes when it travels through a loop. The force that maintains an object moving along a curved route is this pull toward the center, or centripetal force.

A soft tennis ball is dropped onto a hard floor from a height of 1.50 m and rebounds to a height of 1.10 m. (a) Calculate its ve
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

(a)   v = 5.42m/s

(b)   vo = 4.64m/s

(c)   a = 2874.28m/s^2

(d)   Δy = 5.11*10^-3m

Explanation:

(a) The velocity of the ball before it hits the floor is given by:

v=\sqrt{2gh}        (1)

g: gravitational acceleration = 9.8m/s^2

h: height where the ball falls down = 1.50m

v=\sqrt{2(9.8m/s^2)(1.50m)}=5.42\frac{m}{s}

The speed of the ball is 5.42m/s

(b) To calculate the velocity of the ball, after it leaves the floor, you use the information of the maximum height reached by the ball after it leaves the floor.

You use the following formula:

h_{max}=\frac{v_o^2}{2g}       (2)

vo: velocity of the ball where it starts its motion upward

You solve for vo and replace the values of the parameters:

v_o=\sqrt{2gh_{max}}=\sqrt{2(9.8m/s^2)(1.10m)}=4.64\frac{m}{s}

The velocity of the ball is 4.64m/s

(c) The acceleration is given by:

a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}=\frac{v_o-v}{3.50*10^{-3}s}=\frac{4.64m/s-(-5.42m)/s}{3.50*10^{-3}s}=2874.285\frac{m}{s^2}

a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}=\frac{v_o-v}{3.50*10^{-3}s}=\frac{4.64m/s-5.42m/s}{3.50*10^{-3}s}=-222.85\frac{m}{s^2}

The acceleration of the ball is 2874.28/s^2

(d) The compression of the ball is:

\Deta y=\frac{v^2}{2(a)}=\frac{(5.42m/s)^2}{2(2874.28m/s^2)}=5.11*10^{-3}m

THe compression of the ball when it strikes the floor is 5.11*10^-3m

A box is at rest on a table. What can you say about the forces acting on the box?
Nikitich [7]
You can tell a lot about an object that's not moving,
and also a lot about the forces acting on it:

==> If the box is at rest on the table, then it is not accelerating.

==> Since it is not accelerating, I can say that the forces on it are balanced.

==> That means that the sum of all forces acting on the box is zero,
and the effect of all the forces acting on it is the same as if there were
no forces acting on it at all.

==> This in turn means that all of the horizontal forces are balanced,
AND all of the vertical forces are balanced.

Horizontal forces:
sliding friction, somebody pushing the box

All of the forces on this list must add up to zero. So ...

(sliding friction force) = (pushing force), in the opposite direction.

If nobody pushing the box, then sliding friction force = zero.

Vertical forces:
gravitational force (weight of the box, pulling it down)
normal force (table pushing the box up)

All of the forces on this list must add up to zero, so ...

(Gravitational force down) + (normal force up) = zero

(Gravitational force down) = -(normal force up) .
