<span>The force of gravity between a planet and a person or object on
its surface is called the person or object's weight on that planet.

The planet's weight on the person or object is exactly the same number,
because gravity always acts as an equal pair of forces ... one in each direction.

Answer:

D) momentum of cannon + momentum of projectile= 0

Explanation:

The law of conservation of momentum states that the total momentum of an isolated system is constant.

In this case, the system cannon+projectile can be considered as isolated, because no external forces act on it (in fact, the surface is frictionless, so there is no friction acting on the cannon). Therefore, the total momentum of the two objects (cannon+projectile) must be equal before and after the firing:

p_i = p_f

But the initial momentum is zero, because at the beginning both the cannon and the projectile are at rest:

p_i = 0

So the final momentum, which is sum of the momentum of the cannon and of the projectile, must also be zero:

p_f = p_{cannon}+p_{projectile} =0

Only four forces act on an object. They all have the same magnitude. Their directions are north, south, northwest, and northeast
mina [271]

Answer:

the correct answer is A,   North

Explanation:

The forces are vectors so they must be added vectorially.

The magnitude of the forces is the same, but not their direction, which is why they are different.

Analyze the situation presented

We have a force towards the North and another towards the South with the same magnitude, therefore these cancel each other out

We have a force towards the Northeast and another towards the Northwest, these can be decomposed into parts, one towards the North and another on the East-West axis, this last component is canceled, but the component towards the North is added.

In summary we see that the body accelerates towards the North

the correct answer is A

The rope of a swing is 3.10 m long. Calculate the angle from the vertical at which a 76.0 kg man must begin to swing in order to
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

The angle from the vertical is 48.72°

Explanation:

Given :

Length of rope l = 3.10 m

Mass of man m = 76 Kg

Mass of car M = 1520 Kg

Velocity of car v = 1.01 \frac{m}{s}

According to conservation law,

Potential energy of man is converted to kinetic energy of car moving,

   \frac{1}{2} M v^{2} = mgh

We calculate height,

   h = \frac{M v^{2} }{2mg}

   h = \frac{1520(1.01)^{2} }{2\times 75 \times 9.8}                      ( ∵ g = 9.8 \frac{m}{s^{2} } )

   h = 1.05 m

This is the distance of the rope at the bottom,

So we take difference of it.

⇒ 3.10 - 1.05 = 2.05

We can calculate angle between them,

\cos \theta = \frac{2.05}{3.10}  = 0.6597

 \theta = 48.72°

Therefore, the angle from the vertical is 48.72°
