<u>Answer</u>

4.6 m/s to the right.

<u>Explanation</u>

Velocity is a vector quantity. It has both magnitude and direction.

Taking the 5.8 m/s moving to the right as positive, then the 1.2 m/s moving to the left will be negative.

∴ 5.8 + -1.2 = 5.8 - 1.2

= 4.6 m/s.

The resultant velocity vector is 4.6 m/s to the right.

Your teacher (175kg) and the lab (15kg) are 2m apart. What is the gravitational force between them? Draw a FBD, and label

Pachacha [2.7K]

The gravitational force between two objects is given by
$F=G \frac{m_1 m_2 }{r^2}$
where
G is the gravitational constant
m1 and m2 are the masses of the two objects
r is the separation between the two objects

In this problem, $m_1 = 175 kg$ , $m_2 =15 kg$ and $r=2 m$ , therefore the gravitational force between the two objects is
$F=(6.67 \cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2}) \frac{(175 kg)(15 kg)}{(2m)^2}=4.38 \cdot10^{-8} N$

Kinetic energy.

Kinetic energy is the type of energy observed in moving objects. In this case the football player is running, ie moving, so he/she must have kinetic energy.
