Answer:

acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s^2

universal gravitational constant= 6.67×10 ^_11 nm^2 kg_2

now, ratio=9.8/6.67×10^_11.

In a lab, the mass of object a is 52 kg. object a weighs

aksik [14]

If you are asking for the weight then the formula is F=mg where f is weight m is mass and g is acceleration due to gravity.m=52kg and g=9.8m/s2(the gravity of earth)
F=52*9.8=509.6
therefore the weight of the object is 509.6N

A 1300 kg car traveling with a speed of 3.5 m/s executes a turn with a 8.5 m radius of curvature.

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

1.4 m/s/s (2.s.f)

Explanation:

The formula for centripetal acceleration is:

$a=\frac{v^{2} }{r}$ , where v is velocity and r is the radius.

In the question we are given the information that the car has a mass of 1300kg, a velocity of 2.5m/s, and a turn radius of 8.5m which are all the values we need. Therefore we can simply substitute in the values to solve the question:

$a=\frac{3.5^{2} }{8.5} \\a=1.4$

Therefore the centripetal acceleration of the car is 1.4m/s/s. (2.s.f)

Hope this helped!

2. Adelia holds a shiny steel spoon with its back (convex surface) facing her eyes at a distance

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

(a) The convex mirror image, is always upright at all positions, while images formed by concave mirrors are always inverted when the object distance from the mirror is more than the mirrors focal length.

(b) An upright image is not seen for object at a distance from a concave mirror further than the focal length of the mirror, which is the spoon in the question

Therefore, the location of her eyes of approximately, 30 cm, from the mirror is more than the mirror's focal length

A. How long does it take light to travel through a 3.0-mm-thick piece of window glass?

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

a) $1.517\times10^{-11}$ s

b) 3.41 mm

Explanation:

We take the speed of light, c = $3.0\times10^8$ m/s and the refractive index of glass as 1.517.

Speed = distance/time

Time = distance/speed

Refractive index, n = speed of light in vacuum / speed of light in medium

$n=\dfrac{c}{s}$

$s=\dfrac{c}{n}$

$t=\dfrac{d}{c/n}$

$t=\dfrac{dn}{c}$

$t=\dfrac{3\times10^{-3}\times1.517}{3.0\times10^8}$

$t=1.517\times10^{-11}$

We take the refractive index of water as 1.333.

Speed in water = speed in vacuum / refractive index of water

Distance = speed * time

$d=s\times t$

$d=\dfrac{c}{n_w}\times \dfrac{3\times10^{-3}\times1.517}{c}$

$d=\dfrac{3\times10^{-3}\times 1.517}{1.333}$

d = 3.41 mm

An archer shoots an arrow 75 m distant target; the bull's-eye of the target is at the same height as the release height of the a

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

$16.25^{\circ}$

Explanation:

R = Horizontal range of projectile = 75 m

v = Velocity of projectile = 37 m/s

g = Acceleration due to gravity = $9.81\ \text{m/s}^2$

Horizontal range is given by

$R=\dfrac{v^2\sin2\theta}{g}\\\Rightarrow \theta=\dfrac{\sin^{-1}\dfrac{Rg}{v^2}}{2}\\\Rightarrow \theta=\dfrac{\sin^{-1}\dfrac{75\times 9.81}{37^2}}{2}\\\Rightarrow \theta=16.25^{\circ}$

The angle at which the arrow is to be released is $16.25^{\circ}$ .
