At which point does the planet have the least gravitational force acting on it?

Physics
2 answers:
Snezhnost [94]3 years ago

Answer:

Point A

Explanation:

Recall that gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the 2 objects.

This means that the farther away the objects are from each other, the lesser their gravitational interaction will be.

In this case we can see that Point A is furthest away from the star, hence this will be the location with the least gravitational force from the star.

Answer:

At which point does the planet have the least gravitational force acting on it?

Explanation:

In an elliptical orbit, when a planet is at its furthest point from the Sun, it is under the least amount of gravity, meaning that the force of gravity is strongest when it is closest.

4) Explain which electric charges attract and which electric charges repel (push away)
DaniilM [7]

Explanation:

According to the fundamental law of electrostatics, like charges which are ( only positive or only negative charges) repel while unlike charges which are ( positive and negative charges ) attract each other.

that is: ( +++++ ++++++) they repel

while ( +++++++ ———) they attract

with what speed does a freely falling object dropped from a height of 88.2m hit the ground? how long does it take for it hit the
Kryger [21]

Answer:

Vf = 41.6 [m/s].

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the equations of kinematics.

Vf² = Vo² + (2*g*y)

where:

Vf =  final velocity [m/s]

Vo = initial velocity = 0

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

y = height = 88.2 [m]

Note: The positive sign of the equation tells us that the acceleration of gravity goes in the direction of motion.

Vf² = Vo² + (2*g*y)

Vf² = 0 + (2*9.81*88.2)

Vf = (1730.48)^0.5

Vf = 41.6 [m/s]

In a ballistics test, a 24 g bullet traveling horizontally at 1200 m/s goes through a 31-cm-thick 320 kg stationary target and e
Zanzabum

Answer:

The  velocity is  v_t  =  0.02175 \  m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  mass of the bullet is  m_b  =  0.024 \  kg

    The initial speed of the bullet is  u_b  =  1200 \  m/s

   The mass of the target is  m_t  =  320 \  kg

    The  initial velocity of target is  u_t  =  0  \ m/s

    The  final velocity of the bullet is  is  v_b  =  910 \  m/s

   

Generally according to the law of momentum conservation we have that

      m_b *  u_b  +  m_t *  u_t  =  m_b *  v_b  +  m_t  *  v_t

=>   0.024  *  1200  +  320 *  0  =  0.024 *  910   +  320  *  v_t

=>    v_t  =  0.02175 \  m/s
