The acceleration due to gravity, g , is constant at sea level on the Earth's surface. However, the acceleration decreases as an
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

  g    = g₀   [1- 2 h / Re + 3 (h / Re)²]

Explanation:

The law of universal gravitation is

        F = G m Me / Re²

Where g is the universal gravitational constant, m and Me are the mass of the body and the Earth, respectively and R is the distance between them

      F = G Me /Re²  m

We call gravity acceleration a

       g₀ = G Me / Re².

When the body is at a height h above the surface the distance is

            R = Re + h

Therefore  the attractive force is

      F = G Me m / (Re + h)²

Let's take Re's common factor

      F = G Me / Re²  m / (1+ h / Re)²

As Re has a value of 6.37 10⁶ m and the height of the body in general is less than 10⁴ m, the h / Re term is very small, so we can perform a series expansion

         (1+ h / Re)⁻² = 1 -2 h / Re + 6/2 (h / Re) 2 + ...

Let's replace

       F = G Me /Re²   m [1- 2 h / Re + 3 (h / Re)²]

       F = g₀   m  [1- 2 h / Re + 3 (h / Re)²]

If we call the force of attraction at height

     m g =g₀ m  [1- 2 h / Re + 3 (h / Re)²]

       g    = g₀   [1- 2 h / Re + 3 (h / Re)²]

PLEASEE I NEED HELP FAST!!! .Study the scenario.A small container of water with a low temperature is poured into a large contain
RSB [31]

Answer:

that best describes the process is C

Explanation:

This problem is a calorimeter process where the heat given off by one body is equal to the heat absorbed by the other.

Heat absorbed by the smallest container

             Q_c = m ce (T_{f}-T₀)

Heat released by the largest container is

              Q_a = M ce (T_{i}-T_{f})

how

        Q_c = Q_a

       m (T_{f}-T₀) = M (T_{i} - T_{f})

Therefore, we see that the smaller container has less thermal energy and when placed in contact with the larger one, it absorbs part of the heat from it until the thermal energy of the two containers is the same.

Of the final statements, the one that best describes the process is C

since it talks about the thermal energy and the heat that is transferred in the process

The end point of a spring oscillates with a period of 2.0 s when a block with mass m is attached to it. When this mass is increa
Nostrana [21]

Answer: The end point of a spring oscillates with a period of 2.0 s when a block with mass m is attached to it. When this mass is increased by 2.0 kg, the period is found to be 3.0 s.  Then the mass m is 0.625kg.

Explanation: To find the answer, we need to know more about the simple harmonic motion.

<h3>What is simple harmonic motion?</h3>
  • A particle is said to execute SHM, if it moves to and fro about the mean position under the action of restoring force.
  • We have the equation of time period of a SHM as,

                                          T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }

  • Where, m is the mass of the body and k is the spring constant.
<h3>How to solve the problem?</h3>
  • Given that,

               T_1=2s\\m_1=m\\m_2=m+2kg\\T_2=3s

  • We have to find the value of m,

              T_1=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} } \\T_2=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m+2}{k} } \\\frac{T_1}{T_2} =\sqrt{\frac{m}{m+2} }\\\frac{2}{3} =\sqrt{\frac{m}{m+2} }\\\\

               m=\frac{5}{8} =0.625kg

Thus, we can conclude that, the mass m will be 0.625kg.
