An object on a planet has a mass of 243 kg. What is the acceleration of the

Physics
1 answer:
Vesna [10]3 years ago

Answer:

The gravitational acceleration of a planet of mass M and radius R

a = G*M/R^2.

In this case we have:

G = 6.67 x 10^-11 N (m/kg)^2

R = 2.32 x 10^7 m

M = 6.35 x 10^30 kg

Now we can compute:

a = (6.67*6.35/2.32^2)x10^(-11 + 30 - 2*7) m/s^2 = 786,907.32 m/s^2

The acceleration does not depend on the mass of the object.

Answer:

D = -4/7 = - 0.57

C = 17/7 = 2.43

Explanation:

We have the following two equations:

3C + 4D = 5\ --------------- eqn (1)\\2C + 5D = 2\ --------------- eqn (2)

First, we isolate C from equation (2):

2C + 5D = 2\\2C = 2 - 5D\\C = \frac{2 - 5D}{2}\ -------------- eqn(3)

using this value of C from equation (3) in equation (1):

3(\frac{2-5D}{2}) + 4D = 5\\\\\frac{6-15D}{2} + 4D = 5\\\\\frac{6-15D+8D}{2} = 5\\\\6-7D = (5)(2)\\7D = 6-10\\\\D = -\frac{4}{7}

<u>D = - 0.57</u>

Put this value in equation (3), we get:

C = \frac{2-(5)(\frac{-4}{7} )}{2}\\\\C = \frac{\frac{14+20}{7}}{2}\\\\C = \frac{34}{(7)(2)}\\\\C =  \frac{17}{7}\\

<u>C = 2.43</u>

This question is related to inertia:
luda_lava [24]
The way I do it is suddenly, in the same sort of way that magicians try to pull a table cloth off a table when there's things on the table cloth.The sudden approach acts as an impulse of force and starts to accelerate the roll. But, the piece (assuming it has perforations) is off the roll before the roll can move, due to inertia. Then the roll will acclerate, move, slow down and stop. However, in accelerating, the roll will unravel. The bigger the impulse the more it will unravel.+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++If on the other hand, the piece of paper is held firmly, and the roll is pulled, then the impulse is presumably given to the paper and the hand whose inertia is a lot more than that of the roll. So, I think I'd actually go for choice c)+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++This assumes that the roll is free to rotate.I think that a similar idea is behind the design and use of a "ballistic galvanometer". The charge is passed through the galvanometer quickly, as a current pulse. Then the needle starts to deflect, and the deflection is arranged to depend on the total charge that has passed through in the time of the current pulse.

A seagull flying horizontally over the ocean at a constant speed of 2.60 m/s carries a small fish in its mouth. It accidentally
Ivenika [448]

(a) +2.60 m/s

The motion of the fish dropped by the seagul is a projectile motion, which consists of two independent motions:

- a horizontal uniform motion, at constant speed

- a vertical motion, at constant acceleration (acceleration of gravity, g=-9.8 m/s^2, downward)

In this part we are only interested in the horizontal motion. As we said the horizontal component of the fish's velocity does not change, therefore its value when the fish reaches the ocean is equal to its initial value, which is the speed at which the seagull was flying (because it was flying horizontally):

v_x = +2.60 m/s

(b) -17.2 m/s

The vertical component of the fish's velocity instead follows the equation:

v_y = u_y +gt

where

u_y = 0 is the initial vertical velocity, which is zero

g=-9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

t is the time

Since the fish reaches the ocean at t = 1.75 s, we can substitute this time into the formula to find the final vertical velocity:

v_y = 0+(-9.8)(1.75)=-17.2 m/s

where the negative sign indicates the direction (downward).

(c)

The horizontal component of the fish's velocity would increase

The vertical component of the fish's velocity would stay the same.

As we said from part (a) and (b):

- The horizontal component of the fish's velocity is constant during the motion and it is equal to the initial velocity of the seagull -> so if the seagull's initial speed increases, the horizontal velocity of the fish will increase too

- The vertical component of the fish's velocity does not depend on the original speed of the seagull, therefore it is not affected.

You stand on top a building 44 m tall with a water balloon. You drop the water balloon from rest. How fast is the balloon moving
Alecsey [184]
<h2>The balloon is moving when it is halfway down the building at 20.78 m/s.</h2>

Explanation:

We have equation of motion v² = u² + 2as

Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s  

Acceleration, a = 9.81 m/s²  

Displacement, s = 0.5 x 44 = 22 m

Substituting  

v² = u² + 2as

v² = 0² + 2 x 9.81 x 22

v² = 431.64

v = 20.78 m/s

Velocity at 22 m = 20.78 m/s

The balloon is moving when it is halfway down the building at 20.78 m/s.
