Answer:

The correct answer is False.

Explanation:

Newton was inspired by Kepler's theory to be able to establish his theory about gravity, which is defined as a force that occurs only when there are two bodies with mass. Newton does not give a clear explanation why this situation occurs, since he calls this force as divine, and does not go further in the study of it.

The planets to be solid bodies with mass fall within this dynamics, being so close or gravitating in orbits of planets with greater mass that could cause an affectation of both planets.

False. Kepler discovered this and Newton was inspired by this.

You toss a ball straight up with an initial speed of 30m/s. How high does it go, and how long is it in the air (neglecting air r

Brut [27]

Explanation:

Given that,

A ball is tossed straight up with an initial speed of 30 m/s

We need to find the height it will go and the time it takes in the air.

At its maximum height, its final speed, v = 0 and it will move under the action of gravity. Using equation of motion :

v = u +at

Here, a = -g

v = u -gt

i.e. u = gt

$t=\dfrac{u}{g}\\\\t=\dfrac{30\ m/s}{9.8\ m/s^2}\\\\t=3.06\ s$

So, the time for upward motion is 3.06 seconds. It means that it will in air for 3.06×2 = 6.12 seconds

Let d is the maximum distance covered by it.

$d=ut-\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$

Putting all values

$d=30(3.06)-\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8\times (3.06)^2\\\\d=45.91\ m$

Hence, it will go to a height of 45.91 m and it will in the air for 6.12 seconds.

you know that there are 1609 meter in a mile. the number of feet in a mile is 5280. what is the speed snail from problem 7 per m

Zanzabum

Answer:

We know that 1 meter = 100 centimeters, and 1 foot = 12 inches.

So (1,609 meters) x (100 centimeters/meter) = (5,280 feet) x (12 inches/foot)

The second fraction on each side of the equation is equal to ' 1 ', because

the numerator is equal to the denominator, so sticking it in there doesn't

change the value of that side of the equation. But now we can cancel some

units,and wind up with the units we need.

(1,609 meters) x (100 centimeters/meter) = (5,280 feet) x (12 inches/foot)

(1,609 x100) centimeters = (5,280 x 12) inches

160,900 centimeters = 63,360 inches

Divide each side by 63,360 : 2.54 centimeters = 1 inch

A box slides down a 30.0° ramp with an acceleration of 1.20 m/s^2. Determine the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box

Zielflug [23.3K]

m = mass of the box

N = normal force on the box

f = kinetic frictional force on the box

a = acceleration of the box

μ = coefficient of kinetic friction

perpendicular to incline , force equation is given as

N = mg Cos30 eq-1

kinetic frictional force is given as

f = μ N

using eq-1

f = μ mg Cos30

parallel to incline , force equation is given as

mg Sin30 - f = ma

mg Sin30 - μ mg Cos30 = ma

"m" cancel out

a = g Sin30 - μ g Cos30

inserting the values

1.20 = (9.8) Sin30 - (9.8) Cos30 μ

μ = 0.44
