Answer:
Gravitational potential energy is energy an object possesses because of its position in a gravitational field. Since the force required to lift it is equal to its weight, it follows that the gravitational potential energy is equal to its weight times the height to which it is lifted.
This theory was first proposed by Nicolaus Copernicus. Copernicus was a Polish astronomer. He first published the heliocentric system in his book: De revolutionibus <span>orbium </span>coelestium<span> , "On the revolutions of the heavenly bodies," which appeared in 1543.</span>
Hello,
<u>Solution for A:</u>
Force = 3.00N
Mass = 0.50 Kgs
Time = 1.50 Seconds
According to newton's second law of motion;
Force = Mass times Acceleration(a)
3.00 = 0.50 * a
a = 3.00/0.50 = 6.00 m/s^2
We know that acceleration = Velocity / time
So Velocity = time * acceleration = 1.50 * 6 = 9.00 m/s^2
<u>Solution for B:</u>
The net force = 4.00N - 3.00N = 1.00N to the left
Force = 1.00N
Mass = 0.50Kg
Time = 3.00 Seconds
Again; F = MA (Where F is force, M is mass and A is acceleration)
1.00N = 0.5 * A
A = 1/0.5 = 2 m/s^2
Velocity = Acceleration * Time = 2 * 3 = 6 m/s
The measurement of the expansion of the universe was what gave rise to the big bang theory and it's predictions.
