What is universal laws of gravitation

valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

Newton's law of universal gravitation states that every particle attracts every other particle in the universe with a force which is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers.

What is the restoring force of a pendulum

salantis [7]

Answer:

the Restoring force causes the vibrating object to go slower going further from the equilibrium position and to go faster as it approaches the equilibrium position. the restoring force is what is causing the vibration The tension force comes from the string tugging on the bob of the pendulum.

The driver of a car going 86.0 km/h suddenly sees the lights of a barrier 44.0 m ahead. It takes the driver 0.75 s to apply the

Lynna [10]

Part a

Answer: NO

We need to calculate the distance traveled once the brakes are applied. Then we would compare the distance traveled and distance of the barrier.

Using the second equation of motion:

$s=ut+0.5at^2$

where s is the distance traveled, u is the initial velocity, t is the time taken and a is the acceleration.

It is given that, u=86.0 km/h=23.9 m/s, t=0.75 s, $a=-10.0 m/s^2$

$\Rightarrow s=23.9 m/s \times 0.75s+0.5\times (-10.0 m/s^2)\times (0.75 s)^2=15.11 m$

Since there is sufficient distance between position where car would stop and the barrier, the car would not hit it.

Part b

Answer: 29.6 m/s

The maximum distance that car can travel is $s=44.0 m$

The acceleration is same, $a=-10.0 m/s^2$

The final velocity, v=0

Using the third equation of motion, we can find the maximum initial velocity for car to not hit the barrier:

$v^2-u^2=2as$

$0-u^2=-2 \time 10.0m/s^2 \times 44.0 m\Rightarrow u=\sqrt{880 m^2/s^2}=29.6 m/s$

Hence, the maximum speed at which car can travel and not hit the barrier is 29.6 m/s.

In an engine, a piston oscillates with simple harmonic motion so that its position varies according to the following expression,

eduard

(a) 4.06 cm

In a simple harmonic motion, the displacement is written as

$x(t) = A cos (\omega t + \phi)$ (1)

where

A is the amplitude

$\omega$ is the angular frequency

$\phi$ is the phase

t is the time

The displacement of the piston in the problem is given by

$x(t) = (5.00 cm) cos (5t+\frac{\pi}{5})$ (2)

By putting t=0 in the formula, we find the position of the piston at t=0:

$x(0) = (5.00 cm) cos (0+\frac{\pi}{5})=4.06 cm$

(b) -14.69 cm/s

In a simple harmonic motion, the velocity is equal to the derivative of the displacement. Therefore:

$v(t) = x'(t) = -\omega A sin (\omega t + \phi)$ (3)

Differentiating eq.(2), we find

$v(t) = x'(t) = -(5 rad/s)(5.00 cm) sin (5t+\frac{\pi}{5})=-(25.0 cm/s) sin (5t+\frac{\pi}{5})$

And substituting t=0, we find the velocity at time t=0:

$v(0)=-(25.00 cm/s) sin (0+\frac{\pi}{5})=-14.69 cm/s$

(c) -101.13 cm/s^2

In a simple harmonic motion, the acceleration is equal to the derivative of the velocity. Therefore:

$a(t) = v'(t) = -\omega^2 A cos (\omega t + \phi)$

Differentiating eq.(3), we find

$a(t) = v'(t) = -(5 rad/s)(25.00 cm/s) cos (5t+\frac{\pi}{5})=-(125.0 cm/s^2) cos (5t+\frac{\pi}{5})$

And substituting t=0, we find the acceleration at time t=0:

$a(0)=-(125.00 cm/s) cos (0+\frac{\pi}{5})=-101.13 cm/s^2$

(d) 5.00 cm, 1.26 s

By comparing eq.(1) and (2), we notice immediately that the amplitude is

A = 5.00 cm

For the period, we have to start from the relationship between angular frequency and period T:

$\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}$

Using $\omega = 5.0 rad/s$ and solving for T, we find

$T=\frac{2\pi}{5 rad/s}=1.26 s$

a ship using an echo sounding device receives an echo from the bottom 0.8 seconds after the sound is emitted. if the velocity of

Rudiy27

Answer: depth= 1875m

Explanation: divide t by 2 because its echo it will go and come back thats why we divide it with 2

Then apply formula Depth(d)=velocity (v)/time (t)

Putting values we get ,

d=1500/0.4

d=1875m
