A 100 kg mass is pulled along a frictionless surface by a horizontal force F such that its acceleration is 10.0 m/s2. A 20 kg ma

ss slides along the top of the 100 kg mass and has an acceleration of 3.0 m/s2. (It thus slides backward relative to the 100 kg mass.)

Answer

given,

mass = 100 kg

acceleration = 10 m/s²

A mass 20 kg slides over 100 kg block

acceleration = 3 m/s²

horizontal friction exerted by the 100 kg block on 20 kg

using newton's second law

F - f = 0

F = f

f = ma

f = 20 × 3

f = 60 N

now net force acting on the 100 kg block

F_net = m a

F_net = 100 x 10

F_net = 1000 N

after 20 kg block falls the acceleration of the bock

F = 1000 +60

F = 1060 N

acceleartion on the block

a = \dfrac{F}{m}

a = \dfrac{1060}{100}

a = 10.60 m/s²

Calculate the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of Earth due to the Moon.
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

g'_h=1.096\times 10^{-5}\ m.s^{-2}

Explanation:

We know that the gravity on the surface of the moon is,

  • g'=\frac{g}{6}
  • g'=1.63\ m.s^{-2}

<u>Gravity at a height h above the surface of the moon will be given as:</u>

g'_h=\frac{G.m}{(r+h)^2} ..........................(1)

where:

G = universal gravitational constant

m = mass of the moon

r = radius of moon

We have:

  • G=6.67\times 10^{-11}\ m^3.s^{-2}.kg^{-1}
  • m=7.35\times 10^{22}\ kg
  • r=1.74\times 10^6\ m
  • h=384.4\times 10^6\ m is the distance between the surface of the earth and the moon.

Now put the respective values in eq. (1)

g'_h=\frac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 7.35\times 10^{22}}{(1.74\times 10^6+384.4\times 10^6)^2}

g'_h=1.096\times 10^{-5}\ m.s^{-2} is the gravity on the moon the earth-surface.

Does the inertia of an object change as the object’s velocity changes explain
Sever21 [200]
Inertia is proportional to mass. It is a measure of the resistance to changes in velocity. Inertia is a property of mass and cannot change. Momentum changes as an object changes its velocity. Good luck on your assignment and have a great day! :D
