The acceleration of gravity is inversely proportional to
the square of the distance from Earth's center.
The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s² on the Earth's surface ...
6380 km from the center.
If the acceleration of gravity at 'h' is 4.9 m/s² ... 1/2 of what it is
on the surface, then the distance from the center is
(6380 x √2) = 9,023 km (rounded) ,
and 'h' is the distance above the surface
= (9,023 - 6,380) = 2,643 km (rounded) .
Answer:
<h2>a) Time elapsed before the bullet hits the ground is 0.553 seconds.</h2><h2>b)
The bullet travels horizontally 110.6 m</h2>
Explanation:
a) Consider the vertical motion of bullet
We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²
Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s
Acceleration, a = 9.81 m/s²
Displacement, s = 1.5 m
Substituting
s = ut + 0.5 at²
1.5 = 0 x t + 0.5 x 9.81 xt²
t = 0.553 s
Time elapsed before the bullet hits the ground is 0.553 seconds.
b) Consider the horizontal motion of bullet
We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²
Initial velocity, u = 200 m/s
Acceleration, a = 0 m/s²
Time, t = 0.553 s
Substituting
s = ut + 0.5 at²
s = 200 x 0.553 + 0.5 x 0 x 0.553²
s = 110.6 m
The bullet travels horizontally 110.6 m
Answer:
Option C - 39.2 J
Explanation:
We are given that;
Mass; m = 2 kg.
Distance moved off the floor;d = 10 m.
Acceleration due to gravity;g = 9.8 m/s².
We want to find the work done.
Now, the Formula for work done is given by;
Work = Force × displacement.
In this case, it's force of gravity to lift up the boots, thus;
Formula for this force is;
Force = mass x acceleration due to gravity
Force = 2 × 9.8 = 19.2 N
∴ Work done = 19.6 × 2
Work done = 39.2 J.
Hence, the Work done to life the boot of 2 kg to a height of 2 m is 39.2 J.
