Which describes how the same force affects a small mass and a large mass

1 answer:

5 0

You shall use the equation for force given by the second Law of Newton, this is F = m*a, where F is the net force that acts over the object, m is the mass of the object and a is the acceleration that the object will acquire. From that equation you can find a = F/m, which means that a is direct proportional to F and invsersely related to m. So, small masses accelerate faster than large masses, and <span>the answer is the option B. the small mass accelerates faster.</span>

What would happen to Mars (orbiting around the Sun, obviously) if its tangential velocity was reduced

Rama09 [41]

Answer:

It would eventually crash into the Sun

Explanation:

If the mars is orbiting around the sun, the gravitational force of attraction is between the sun and mars supply the necessary force required for the centripetal motion.

If a planet is in centripetal motion, it is constantly falling towards the sun with the acceleration equal to the gravitational strength at that point.

If the centripetal acceleration of the planet is removed, still the planet would accelerate linearly falling towards the sun.

Hence, if the planets tangential velocity was reduced to zero, It would eventually crash into the Sun

When a baseball is hit, it travels around 65 mps (meters per second). the mass of the baseball is 0.145 kg. what is the kinetic

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

306J

Explanation:

The formula for kinetic energy is given as ½mv².

Using this, we get our answer by substituting the values into the formula.

½ × 0.145kg × 65m/s
