The free-fall acceleration at the surface of planet 1 is 22 m/s^2. The radius and the mass of planet 2 are twice those of planet
algol13

Answer:

g₂ = 11 m/s²

Explanation:

The value of free-fall acceleration on the surface of a planet is given by the following formula:

g = \frac{Gm}{r^2}

where,

g = free-fall acceleration

G = Universal Gravitational Constant

m = mass of the planet

r = radius of planet

FOR PLANET 1:

g_1 = \frac{Gm_1}{r_1^2}\\\\\frac{Gm_1}{r_1^2} = 22 m/s^2 --------------------- equation (1)

FOR PLANET 2:

g_2 = \frac{Gm_2}{r_2^2}\\\\g_2 = \frac{G(2m_1)}{(2r_1)^2}\\\\g_2 = \frac{1}{2}\frac{Gm_1}{r_1^2}\\\\

using equation (1):

g_2 = \frac{g_1}{2}\\\\g_2 = \frac{22\ m/s^2}{2}

<u>g₂ = 11 m/s²</u>

How would you find the speed of a person who walked
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

v = 1.25 m/s

Explanation:

We have,

Distance covered by a person is 10 meters

Time taken by him to cover that distance is 8 seconds.

If we want to find the speed of a person, we must know distance covered by it and taken. In this case, we know both distance and time. His speed is given by :

v=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\\v=\dfrac{10\ m}{8\ s}\\\\v=1.25\ m/s

So, the speed of the person is 1.25 m/s.

Using the
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

The principle of momentum conservation states that if there no external force the total momentum of the system before and after the collision is conserved.

Since momentum is a vector, we should investigate the directions and magnitudes of initial and final momentum.

\vec{P}_{initial} = \vec{P}_{final}\\\vec{P}_{initial} = m_1\vec{v}_1 + 0\\\vec{P}_{final} = m_1\vec{v}_1' + m_2 \vec{v}_2'

If the first ball hits the second ball with an angle, we should separate the x- and y-components of the momentum (or velocity), and apply conservation of momentum separately on x- and y-directions.
