Lukalu is rappelling off a cliff. The parametric equations that describe her horizontal and vertical position as a function of t

ime are x ( t ) = 8 t and y ( t ) = − 16 t 2 + 100 and . How long does it take her to reach the ground? How far away from the cliff is she when she lands?

Answer:

2.5 s, 5 m

Explanation:

The equations for the horizontal and vertical position of Lukalu are:

x(t) = 8t\\y(t) = -16t^2 + 100

we can find the time it takes her to reach the ground by requiring that the vertical position becomes zero:

y(t) = 0

So we find:

0=-16t^2 +100\\16t^2 = 100\\t=\sqrt{\frac{100}{16}}=2.5 s

The horizontal distance of Lukalu instead will be given by the equation for the horizontal position, substituting t = 2.5 s:

x=8t = 8 \cdot 2.5 s =5 m

What is the magnitude of the gravitational force acting on the earth due to the sun?
expeople1 [14]

Answer: 3.524(10)^{22}N

Explanation:

According to Newton's law of Gravitation, the force F exerted between two bodies of masses m1 and m2  and separated by a distance r  is equal to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance:

F=G\frac{(m1)(m2)}{r^2}   (1)

Where:

G is the Gravitational Constant and its value is 6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}}  

m1=1.99(10)^{30}kg is the mass of the Sun

m2=5.972(10)^{24}kg is the mass of the Earth

r=1.50(10)^{11}m  is the distance between the Sun and the Earth

Substituting the values in (1):

F=6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}}\frac{(1.99(10)^{30}kg)(5.972(10)^{24}kg)}{(1.50(10)^{11}m)^2}   (2)

Finally:

F=3.524(10)^{22}N   This is the gravitational force acting on the earth due to the sun
