No, because gravitational fields go on forever.

No . . . the earth's gravitational force is a requirement of the satellite maintaining orbit around the planet . . . without it, you could expect the satellite to just float on being earth like a comet passing by

A block of mass 2 kg slides down a frictionless ramp of length 1.3 m tilted at an angle 25o to the horizontal. At the bottom of
marin [14]

Answer:

Diagrams in pictures

Explanation:

Using energy I can get

m g h = 1/2 m v^2

So the velocity at the end of the ramp is the squareroot of two times the initial height of the box times the gravity constant.

(H= 1,3m sin25)

V=2,32m/s

V= a t

And

X= v t +1/2 a t^2

Knowing v=2,32 m/s and x= 1,3 m

I can get

a= 6,21m/s2

F= m a

I can get the force of the box when it collides with the spring

F= 12, 425 N

The force the spring makes on the box then is

F = -12,425N = -k d

Then the spring's constant is k= 51,75N/m

To make the two diagrams I need the functions of time when the box slows down

I use the same two equations

V= a t

And

X= v t + 1/2 a t^2

Being now 2,32 my initial velocity and 0 my final velocity, and my distance 0,24 m.

I get there the time t=0,0689 seconds and the acceleration a= -33,67 m/s2 (negative because it's slowing down).

Then,

V(t)= - 33,67 m/s2 t for time between 0 and 0,689 sec

X(t)= 2,32 m/s t + 1/2 33,67 m/s2 t^2.

for time between 0 and 0,689 sec

Diagrams and equations are in the pictures

When the displacement of a mass on a spring in simple harmonic motion is A/2 from the equilibrium position, what fraction of the
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

The ratio is  KE : TM  =  0.75

Explanation:

from the question we are told that

  The displacement of a mass on a spring in simple harmonic motion is A/2 from the equilibrium position

Generally the total mechanical  energy of the mass is mathematically represented as

        TM  =  \frac{1}{2}  *  k  *  A^2

Here  k is the spring constant  ,  A is the total displacement of the  the mass  from maximum  compression to maximum extension of the spring

Generally this total mechanical energy is mathematically represented as

        TM  =  KE  + PE

=>     KE = TM  - PE

Here the potential  energy of the mass is mathematically represented as

     PE   = \frac{1}{ 2}  *  k *  [ x ]^2

Here x is the displacement of the mass from maximum compression or extension of the spring to equilibrium position and the value is  

      x = \frac{A}{2}

So

     PE   = \frac{1}{ 2}  *  k *  [ \frac{A}{2}  ]^2

So

      KE =  \frac{1}{2}  *  k  *  A^2 - \frac{1}{2}  *  k  *  [\frac{A}{2} ]^2

=>    KE =  \frac{1}{2}  *  k  *  A^2 - \frac{1}{8}  *  k  *  A ^2

=>    KE =  0.375  *  k  *  A^2

So the ratio of  KE :  TM is  mathematically represented as

       \frac{KE}{TM} =  \frac{0.375  k A^2 }{0.5 k A^2}

=>    \frac{KE}{TM} = 0.75
