G=?
m=7.35*10^22kg
r=1.74*10^6m
G=6.67*10^-11nm^2kg^-2
you can use the formula
g=Gm/r^2

physics a flower pot falls from a windowsill 25.0m above the sidewalk. how much time does a passerby on the sidewalk below have

Usimov [2.4K]

$v_f^2 = v_0^2 + 2*a*d$
Since the flower pot is dropped, it has an initial velocity of zero. Also the flower pot accelerates due to gravity.

so

$v_f = \sqrt{2*g*d}=\sqrt{2*9.81*25.0}$

The figure shows two springs (k1 = 10 N/m and k2 = 20 N/m ) attached to a block that can slide on a frictionless surface. In the

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

Energy stored by left spring when compressed = 1/2 k x²

= .5 x 10 x .02² = .002 J .

Let compression in right spring = y

energy stored to right spring = 1/2 k y²

1/2 k y² = 0.002

.5 x 20 x y² = 0.002

y = .01414 m

= 1.4 cm

An archer shoots an arrow with a velocity of 45.0m/s at an angle of 50.0degrees with the horizontal.An assistant standing on the

garri49 [273]

Answer:

a) u = 30.29 m/s

b) t = 2.09 s

Explanation:

given,

velocity = 45 m/s

angle (θ) = 50°

horizontal velocity = 45 cos 50°

time taken to reach 150 m.

times = $\dfrac{150}{45 cos 50^0}$

t = 5.19 s

a) height of arrow

$s = u t +\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$

$s = v sin \theta \times t+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$

$s = 45 sin 50^0 \times 5.19 -\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times 5.19^2$

s = 46.78 m

v² - u² = 2 g s

u² = 2 × 9.81 × 46.78

u = 30.29 m/s

b) time taken by the apple = $\dfrac{u}{g}=\dfrac{30.29}{9.81}$

= 3.09 s

time after which it has to be thrown = 5.19-3.09 = 2.1 s

What is the kinetic energy of a 120-cm thin uniform rod with a mass of 450 g that is rotating about its center at 3.60 rad/s?

goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

1.05 J.

Explanation:

Kinetic Energy: This is the energy possessed by a body due to its motion. The S.I unit of kinetic energy is Joules (J). The formula of kinetic energy is given as

Ek = 1/2mv²................. Equation 1

Where Ek = kinetic energy, m = mass of the uniform rod, v = liner velocity of the rod.

But,

v = αr .......................... Equation 2

Where α = angular velocity of the rod, r = radius of the circle.

Given: α = 3.6 red/s, r = 120/2 = 60 cm = 0.6 m.

Substitute into equation 2

v = 3.6(0.6)

v = 2.16 m/s.

Also given: m = 450 g = 0.45 kg.

Substitute into equation 1

Ek = 1/2(0.45)(2.16²)

Ek = 1.05 J.
