If santa slides 5.00 m before reaching the edge, what is his speed as he leaves the roof?

1 answer:

8 0

Even with no friction, it depends on the slope of the roof. That is, it depends on how much elevation (altitude) he loses during the slide.

Whatever that number is ... call it 'h' ... Santa's speed when he reaches the edge is

Square root of (19.6h) meters per second.

It doesn't matter how much he weighs, or how far he has slud. Only how much altitude he lost on the slope while sliding.

Your teacher (175kg) and the lab (15kg) are 2m apart. What is the gravitational force between them? Draw a FBD, and label

Pachacha [2.7K]

The gravitational force between two objects is given by
$F=G \frac{m_1 m_2 }{r^2}$
where
G is the gravitational constant
m1 and m2 are the masses of the two objects
r is the separation between the two objects

In this problem, $m_1 = 175 kg$ , $m_2 =15 kg$ and $r=2 m$ , therefore the gravitational force between the two objects is
$F=(6.67 \cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2}) \frac{(175 kg)(15 kg)}{(2m)^2}=4.38 \cdot10^{-8} N$

Answer:

The strength of gravity decreases.

An example of that would be if you were in space; you float around because there's no gravity.
