What force is most responsible for the path of an object during projectile motion?

Physics
1 answer:
Levart [38]3 years ago
7 0
The gravitational force.

In fact, the motion of the projectile is composed by two independent motions:
- on the horizontal direction, it is a uniform motion (with constant speed)
- on the vertical direction, it is a uniformly accelerated motion, where the vertical acceleration g is given by the gravity exerted by the Earth on the projectile.

For this reason, the composition of the two motions results in a parabolic trajectory.

What is the net force on a bag pulled down by gravity with a force of 18 newtons and pulled upward by a rope with a force of 18
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

0 N.

Explanation:

Force: This can be defined as the product of mass and the acceleration of the body. The S.I unit of force is Newton (N).

The expression of net force when both force act in the different direction is given as

F' = W-F ........................ Equation 1

Where F' = Net force on the bag, W = gravitational force on the bag, F = Force acting upward on the bag

Given: W = 18 N, F = 18 N.

Substitute into equation 1

F' = 18-18

F' = 0 N.

Hence the net force = 0 N.

What is the direction of the centripetal force when applied to an object?
mihalych1998 [28]
For an object moving in a path that's a circle or a part of one,
the centripetal force acts in the direction toward the center of
the circle.  That direction is perpendicular to the way the object
is moving.

The gravitational attraction between two planets is  4905.95 N

<h3>What is gravitational attraction?</h3>

When two objects with masses are placed at a distance, there will an attractive force acting between them.

According to the Newton's law of gravitation, gravitational force is

F = Gm₁m₂ /r²

where r is the distance between the masses m₁ and m₂ and  G is the gravitational constant G = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N-m²/kg²

Substitute the values into the expression, we get

F =  6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ x  2.25 x 10²⁰ x 6.20 x 10¹⁸ / (435,500 x 1000)²

F= 4905.95 N

Thus, the gravitational attraction between two planets is  4905.95 N.
