Gravity is a force of attraction between objects that is due to their weight and height between one another.

1 answer:

7 0

The statement above is false. The statement should be: "<span>Gravity is a force of attraction between objects that is due to their masses." Mass and weight are often interchanged. Gravitational force depends on the masses of objects, but the size of this force is what weight is. So the relationship is:

Weight = mass x gravitational constant = mass x 9.81 m/s^2</span>

a projectile is fired in such away that its horizontal range is equal to three times its naximum height.what is the angle of pro

Answer:

$\theta=53.13^o$

Explanation:

<u>2-D Projectile Motion</u>

In 2-D motion, there are two separate components of the acceleration, velocity and displacement. The horizontal component has zero acceleration, while the acceleration in the vertical direction is always the acceleration due to gravity. The basic formulas for this type of movement are

$V_x=V_{ox}=V_ocos\theta$

$V_y=V_{oy}-gt=V_osin\theta-gt$

$x=V_{ox}t$

$\displaystyle y=y_o+V_{oy}t-\frac{gt^2}{2}$

$\displaystyle x_{max}=\frac{2V_{ox}V_{oy}}{g}$

$\displaystyle y_{max}=\frac{V_{oy}^2}{2g}$

The projectile is fired in such a way that its horizontal range is equal to three times its maximum height. We need to find the angle \theta at which the object should be launched. The range is the maximum horizontal distance reached by the projectile, so we establish the base condition:

$x_{max}=3y_{max}$

$\displaystyle \frac{2V_{ox}V_{oy}}{g}=3\frac{V_{oy}^2}{2g}$

Using the formulas for $V_{ox}, V_{oy}:$

$\displaystyle \frac{2V_{o}cos\theta V_{o}sin\theta}{g}=3\frac{V_{o}^2sin^2\theta}{2g}$

Simplifying

$4cos\theta sin\theta=3sin^2\theta$

Dividing by $sin\theta$

$4cos\theta=3sin\theta$

Rearranging

$tan\theta=\frac{4}{3}$

$\theta=arctan\frac{4}{3}$

$\theta=53.13^o$

Pls help ASAP. This is astronomy but there isn't an option :)

From largest to smallest they are: Universe, galaxy, solar system, star, planet, moon and asteroid.

Explanation:Let's describe them from smallest to largest. In fact the size order is not exact as there are exceptions.An asteroid is a rocky body which lies in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. They are typically quite small object. The largest asteroid Ceres has been reclassified as a dwarf planet.A moon is typically a rocky body which is in orbit around a planet. Some moons such as our Moon are quite large and are typically bigger than asteroid. Some moons can actually be smaller than some asteroids.A planet is a nearly spherical body which is in orbit around the Sun. Planets are larger than moons.A star is what planets orbit around. It is the source of light and heat. Our Sun is a star which is many times bigger than all of the planets.A solar system is a star and all of its planets, asteroids, comets and other bodies. It is significantly bigger than a star.A galaxy, such as our Milky Way Galaxy, is a collection of solar systems orbiting around a central core. Most galaxies have a supermassive black hole at their centres.Galaxies also form clusters which are large scale structures.The universe is everything. It contains billions of galaxies. Lots of information RIGHT!!!!

How does frequency relate to pitch?

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

The sensation of a frequency is commonly referred to as the pitch of a sound. A high pitch sound corresponds to a high frequency sound wave and a low pitch sound corresponds to a low frequency sound wave. ... That is, two sound waves sound good when played together if one sound has twice the frequency of the other.
