A planet has two moons with identical mass. Moon 1 is in a circular orbit of radius r. Moon 2 is in a circular orbit of radius 2

r. The magnitude of the gravitational force exerted by the planet on Moon 2 is which of the following compared with the gravitational force exerted by the planet on Moon 1?

Answer:

Half as large.

Explanation:

Using Newton's law of universal gravitation, if the mass of the planet is <em>M</em> and of the Moons 1 and 2 is <em>m</em>, them the force exerted by the planet on them will be:

F_1=\frac{GMm}{r}

F_2=\frac{GMm}{2r}

Which clearly shows that the force that the planet exerts on the Moon 2 is half  the force it exerts on the Moon 1.

astra-53 [7]

When the magnets are released and begin to move, the magnetic force changes potential energy into kinetic energy;<u> option D</u>

<h3>What is magnetic force?</h3>

Magnetic force can be defined as the force of attraction or repulsion that is felt or produced between the magnetic poles and electrically charged moving particles.

Magnetic force is the force that exists due to the attractio or repulsion of objects place around the region of space where a maget exerts its force.

When a magnet is released ai a system of magnets and allowed to move it increases the kinetic eergy of the system by converting potential energy to kinetic energy.

How to I isolate t? (time value)
Vlad1618 [11]
Heya!!!

Answer to your question:

All you need to do is to compare both the equations...
On comparing, you'll get
d=6m
v=6.5m/s
a=-9.81m/s^2
we know,

6= 6.5t -0.5 (9.81)t^2
6=6.5t-4.905 t^2
4.905 t^2-6.5t +6=0
now you can use quadratic eq. to solve this.

Hope it helps ^_^

Your car is stalled in the middle of a large patch of ice (assumed to be frictionless). You have a friend that has thrown a rope
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

The time depends on the distance that they have to travel

x(t) = \frac{0.3846t^{2} }{2}

Explanation:

The only horizontal force exerts over the car and you, it is the force that your friend is applied

Newton's Second Law of Motion defines the relationship between acceleration, force, and mass, thus

\sum{F} = ma

        550 = 1430a

            a = 0.3846 m/s2

             

The car and you have a motion under constant acceleration, then theirs position to a time-based is:

x(t) = x_{0} + v_{0}t +\frac{at^{2} }{2}

By the initial conditions

x(t) = \frac{at^{2} }{2}

x(t) = \frac{0.3846t^{2} }{2}

The time depends on the distance that they have to travel
