Answer: acceleration due to gravity of planet a would be twice that of planet b. Given that the radius are thesame.

Explanation:

Acceleration due to gravity is as a result of the gravitational force of attraction of a planet to its centre.

g = GM/r^2

Where;

g = acceleration due to gravity

G = gravitational constant

M = mass of planet

r = radius of planet

Given that the two planet have the same radius, if the mass of planet a is twice the mass of planet b the the acceleration due to gravity of planet a would be twice that of planet b, because acceleration due to gravity is directly proportional to the mass of the planet.

An artillery shell is launched on a flat, horizontal field at an angle of α = 40.8° with respect to the horizontal and with an i
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

1317.4 m

Explanation:

We are given that

Angle=\alpha=40.8^{\circ}

Initial speed =v_0=346m/s

We have to find the horizontal distance covered  by the shell after 5.03 s.

Horizontal component of initial speed=v_{ox}=v_0cos\theta=346cos40.8=261.9m/s

Vertical component of initial speed=v_{oy}=346sin40.8=226.1m/s

Time=t=5.03 s

Horizontal distance =Horizontal\;velocity\times time

Using the  formula

Horizontal distance=261.9\times 5.03

Horizontal distance=1317.4 m

Hence, the horizontal distance covered by the shell=1317.4 m

Two people travel from Columbus to Cleveland, one by car at an average velocity of 90km/h, and one by plane at an average veloci
Flura [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

Yes , their displacement may be equal .

Suppose the displacement is AB where A is starting point and B is end point .

The car is covering the distance AB by going from A to B on straight line . On the other hand plane goes from A to C , then from C to D and then from D to B . In this way plane reaches B from A on a different path which is longer than path of the car . In the second case also displacement of plane is AB . In the second case distance covered is longer but displacement is same that is AB .

0.250 moles of gas are in a piston.The gas does 109 J of work while 240 J of heat are added. What is the change in internal ener
irina [24]

Answer:

+131Joules

Explanation:

Energy can be expressed using below expresion.

ΔE = (q + w).........eqn(1)

q will be + be if heat is gained hence, q= 240 J

work "w" will be - ve if work is done by the system, hence w= -109 J

Then substitute into eqn(1)

Change in Internal energy=

= (240 -109 )

= +131J
