Suppose you are an astronaut and you have been stationed on a distant planet. You would like to find the acceleration due to the

gravitational force on this planet so you devise an experiment. You throw a rock up in the air with an initial velocity of 9 m/s and use a stopwatch to record the time it takes to hit the ground. If it takes 6.4 s for the rock to return to the same location from which it was released, what is the acceleration due to gravity on the planet?

Answer:

<h3> 1.40625m/s²</h3>

Explanation:

Using the equation of motion expressed as v = u+gt where;

v is the  final velocity of the ball

u is the initial velocity

g is the acceleration due to gravity

t is the time taken

Given

u = 9m/s

v = 0m/s

t = 6.4s

Required

acceleration due to gravity g

Since the rock is thrown up, g will be a negative value.

v = u+(-g)t

0 = 9-6.4g

-9 = -6.4g

6.4g = 9

divide both sides by 6.4

6.4g/6.4 = 9/6.4

g = 1.40625m/s²

Hence the acceleration due to gravity on the planet is  1.40625m/s²

Select all of the following that describes momentum, p [mark all correct answers]
Inga [223]

Answer:

c. Momentum is the product of mass and velocity

e. Momentum is a vector quantity

g. Momentum has unit of kgm/s

Explanation:

Linear momentum P

P = m .v

m =mass

v=Velocity

If mass take in kg and velocity is in m/s then momentum p will be in kg.m/s.

1. momentum is the product of velocity and mass.

2.Momentum is a vector quantity.

3.Momentum have kg.m/s unit.

So the following option are correct.

c. Momentum is the product of mass and velocity

e. Momentum is a vector quantity

g. Momentum has unit of kgm/s.

Note-

1.Joule is the unit of energy.

2.One-half the product of mass and the square of the object's speed is known as kinetic energy.

Science help please!
OLga [1]

Answer:

104 N

Explanation:

m = 1300 kg

a = 0.08m/s^2

F = 1300*0.08

F = 104 N

Newtons is the unit of force.

According to Kepler's Third Law, a solar-system planet that has an orbital radius of 4 AU would have an orbital period of about
NARA [144]

Answer:

Orbital period, T = 1.00074 years

Explanation:

It is given that,

Orbital radius of a solar system planet, r=4\ AU=1.496\times 10^{11}\ m

The orbital period of the planet can be calculated using third law of Kepler's. It is as follows :

T^2=\dfrac{4\pi^2}{GM}r^3

M is the mass of the sun

T^2=\dfrac{4\pi^2}{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 1.989\times 10^{30}}\times (1.496\times 10^{11})^3    

T^2=\sqrt{9.96\times 10^{14}}\ s

T = 31559467.6761 s

T = 1.00074 years

So, a solar-system planet that has an orbital radius of 4 AU would have an orbital period of about 1.00074 years.
