Answer:

The answer to your question is  Equation  vf = gt;  vf = 29.6 m/s

Explanation:

Data

gravity = 3.7 m/s²

vf = ?

time = t = 8 s

Formula

       vf = vo + gt

Initial speed = 0 m/s

To solve this problem we can use the equations of free fall and just substitute the data.

- Substitution

      vf = 0 + (3.7)(8)

- Simplification

      vf = 29.6 m/s

Three observers watch a train pull away from a station toward the right of the platform. Observer A is in one of the train’s car
blagie [28]

Describing motion from each frame of reference:

Since observer A is on one of the train's cars, he will find that he is at rest with respect to the train even when it is pulling away because,  he is also moving with respect to the train.

Observer B on the stationary platform will observe that the train is pulling away from the station towards the right of the platform. as is described


Observer C will notice that the train is approaching him in the opposite direction at a speed which is the sum of the speeds at which both the train are traveling


If the conductor applies brakes on the train, since the platform is a stationary frame of reference. The motion will be observed as a simple decelerationg. he will observe that the force due to the brakes will cause the velocity of the train with respect to the train to decrease


Universal law of gravitation effects all objects alike . There will be a constant force of gravity acting on the train that will keep the train on its tracks. The tracks in turn exert a reaction force on the train. There will not be any affect on the train's motion as such( assuming that the train is moving along the tracks and gravitational force is exactly perpendicular)

The gravitational force experienced by Earth due to the Moon is ________ the gravitational force experienced by the Moon due to
Vsevolod [243]

The gravitational force experienced by Earth due to the Moon is <u>equal to </u>the gravitational force experienced by the Moon due to Earth.

<u>Explanation</u>:

The force that attracts any two objects/bodies with mass towards each other is defined as gravitational force. Generally the gravitational force is attractive, as it always pulls the masses together and never pushes them apart.

The gravitational force can be calculated effectively using the following formula: F=GMmr^2  

where “G” is the gravitational constant.

Though gravity has the ability to pull the masses together, it is the weakest force in the nature.

The mass of the Earth and moon varies, but still the gravitational force felt by the Earth and Moon are alike.

An object has a mass of 120 kg on the moon. What is the force of gravity acting on the object on the moon? A. 12.24 N B. 196 N C
Lady_Fox [76]
Correct answer: B
The force of gravity acting on the object on the moon can be found by multiplying its mass by the acceleration due to gravity on the moon. The acceleration due to gravity on the moon is a constant and is approximately 1.63m/s².
120kg×1.63m/s²=195.6kg.m/s²
kg.m/s²=N
<span>The force of gravity acting on the object on the moon would be of approximately 196N.</span>

A radio signal takes 1.28 s to travel from a transmitter on the Moon to the surface of Earth. The radio waves travel at 3.00108
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

s = 3.84 x 10⁸ m

Explanation:

The distance traveled by an object, while in uniform motion, is given by the following equation:

s = vt

where,

s = distance covered

v = speed

t = time interval

In this case:

s = distance between Moon and Earth = ?

v = speed of radio waves = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

t = time taken to travel = 1.28 s

Therefore,

s = (3 x 10⁸ m/s)(1.28 s)

<u>s = 3.84 x 10⁸ m</u>
