Newton's third law is sometimes summarized as "for every action, there's an equal opposite reaction" but when you jump from eart

h, the earth doesn't jump backwards from you. How does Newton's third law of motion apply?

When you want to jump UP, you push DOWN on the Earth. Then, because of Newton's 3rd law, the Earth immediately pushes UP on you, and this equal, opposite REaction is the force that lifts you up.

==========

By the way . . . . . The question is wrong, wrong, wrong.

When you jump up from Earth, the Earth DOES jump backwards away from you.

A flea can jump with an initial velocity of 2.2 m/s at an angle of 21° with respect to the
Serga [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

If no one can see it because the lights were out. Did the flea really jump?

What do you want here?

Max height (2.2sin21)²/ 2(9.8) = 3.2 cm

Time of flight 2(2.2sin21)/ (9.8) = 0.16 s

distance of flight (2.2cos21)(0.16) = 33 cm

A graduated cylinder contains 63.0 mL of water. A piece of gold, which has a density of 19.3 g/ cm3, is added to the water and t
icang [17]

Answer:

29.0 g

Explanation:

The mass of the piece of gold is given by:

m = dV

where

m is the mass

d is the density

V is the volume of the piece of gold

The density of gold is

d = 19.3 g/cm^3

while the volume of the sample is equal to the volume of displaced water, so

V = 64.5 mL - 63.0 mL = 1.5 mL

And since

1 mL = 1 cm^3

the volume is

V = 1.5 cm^3

So the mass of the piece of gold is:

m = (19.3 g/cm^3)(1.5 cm^3)=29.0 g

In a hydraulic garage lift, the small piston has a radius of 5.0 cm and the large piston has a radius of 1.50 m. What force must
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

222.22 N

Explanation:

r = 5 cm = 0.05 m, R = 1.5 m, f = ? , F = 200,000 N

Use pascal's law

F / A = f / a

F / 3.14 x R^2 = f / 3.14 x r^2

F / R^2 = f / r^2

f = F x r^2 / R^2

f = 200000 x 0.05 x 0.05 / (1.5 x 1.5)

f = 222.22 N
