The Earth's gravity keeps us from flying out to space. How can you explain that we have a stronger gravitational attraction to t

he Earth than to the Sun?
We are closer to the sun than the Earth.


We are closer to the Earth than the sun.


The sun has a larger mass so it has less gravitational pull.


The sun is bigger, but has a less mass than the Earth.

A baseball with a mass of 0.15 kilograms collides with a bat at a speed of 40 meters/second. The duration of the collision is 8.
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer: 1687.5 N

Explanation:

From the second law of motion given by Newton, Force is the rate change of momentum.

F = \frac{dp}{dt}=\frac {m dv}{dt} = \frac{m (v_f-v_i)}{dt}

Mass of the baseball, m = 0.15 kg

Initial velocity, v_i=-40 m/s (negative because direction of initial velocity is opposite to the final velocity)

Final velocity, v_f=50 m/s

The duration of collision, dt= 8.0 \times 10^{-3} s

Force, F = \frac{0.15 kg (50-(-40) m/s)}{8.0 \times 10^{-3} s}=1687.5 N

Hence, the value of force is 1687.5 N.

The distance from earth to mars ranges between 780,000,000 km and 380,000,000 km depending on the time of the year. The speed of
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

The minimum time, t = 21.11 m

Explanation:

Given,

The maximum distance between the Earth and Mars, d = 780,000,000 km

The maximum distance between the Earth and Mars, d = 780,000,000 km

The speed of the light, c = 300,000 km/s

The distance and speed of the object is related using the formula,

                           v = d / t

                            t = d / v

The minimum time it takes for data transmission is when the distance between the Mars and the Earth is at minimum.

Therefore,

                            t = 380,000,000 km / 300,000 km/s

                              = 1266.67 s

                              = 21.11 minutes

Hence, the minimum time it takes for data transmitted by the Mars Surveyor to reach earth, t = 21.11 minutes

Explain why does the bowling ball decelerate as it travels along the lane
frutty [35]

The main cause of this is Friction. The more oil that is laid down, the less friction there is between the ball and the lane surface. The less friction, the harder it is for the bowler to send the ball in a curved path imparted by the spin that the bowler puts on the ball at the instant of release.
