Is gravity a field force

1 answer:

Yes, it is because gravity is a force of attraction to the center of our planet, Earth. If we drop a pencil, the pencil will go on the floor. Gravity is pulling the pencil down.

A cake is removed from a 350◦F oven and placed on a cooling rack in a 70◦F room. After 30 minutes the cake is 200◦F. When will i

Answer:

350 F to 100 F it take approx 87.33 min

Explanation:

given data

oven = 350◦F

cooling rack = 70◦F

time = 30 min

cake = 200◦F

solution

we apply here Newtons law of cooling

$\frac{dT}{dt}$ = -k(T-Ta)

$\frac{dy}{dt}$ = $\frac{d}{dt}$ (T(t) -Ta)

= $\frac{dT}{dt} -\frac{dTa}{dt} =\frac{dT}{dt}$ = -k(T-Ta)

-ky $\frac{dy}{dt}$ = -ky

T(t) -Ta = (To -Ta) $e^{-kt}$ T(t) = Ta+ (To -Ta) $e^{-kt}$

put her value for time 30 min and T(t) = 200◦F and To =350◦F and Ta = 70◦F

so here

200 = 70 + ( 350 - 70 ) $e^{-k30}$

k = 0.025575

so here for T(t) = 100F

100 = 70 + ( 350 - 70 ) $e^{-0.025575*t}$

time = 87.33 min

so here 350 F to 100 F it take approx 87.33 min

A proton and an electron traveling with the same velocity enter a uniform electric field. compared to the acceleration of the pr

kenny6666 [7]

The acceleration of the electron is larger than the acceleration of the proton.

The reason for this is that the mass of the electron is smaller (about 1000 times smaller) than the mass of the proton. The two particles have same charge (e), so they experience the same force under the same electric field E:
$F=eE$
However, according to Newton's second law, the force is the product between the mass particle, m, and its acceleration, a:
$F=ma$
which can be rewritten as
$a= \frac{F}{m}$
we said that the force exerted on the two particles, F, is the same, while the mass of the electron is smaller: therefore, from the last formula we see that the acceleration of the electron will be larger than that of the proton.

While Bob is demonstrating the gravitational force on falling objects to his class, he drops an 1.0 lb bag of feathers from the

____ [38]

As per the question Bob drops the bag full with feathers from the top of the building.

The mass of the bag(m)= 1.0 lb

Let the air resistance is neglected.As the bag is under free fall ,hence the only force that acts on the bag is the force of gravity which is in vertical downward direction.

Here the acceleration produced on bag due to the free fall will be nothing else except the acceleration due to gravity i.e g =9.8 m/s^2

Here we are asked to calculate the distance travelled by the bag at the instant 1.5 s

Hence time t= 1.5 s

From equation of kinematics we know that -

S=ut + 0.5at^2 [ here S is the distance travelled]

For motion under free fall initial velocity (u)=0.

Hence S= 0×1.5+{0.5×(-9.8)×(1.5)^2}

⇒ -S =0-11.025 m

⇒ S= 11.025 m

=11 m

Here the negative sign is taken only due to the vertical downward motion of the body .we may take is positive depending on our frame of reference .

Hence the correct option is B.
