Gravity is an attractive force which every object with mass exerts. The "relationship" tells us how much gravity is exerted between two objects. The formula is
. what this says is that in order to figure out Fg(Force of gravity), we must take into account G( gravitational constant 6.67x10^-11) x M1(mass 1) x M2(mass2) / d^2(ditance squared). Mass is measured in Kg(kilograms). G never changes,and Fg is in Newtons. In terms of planets, you must take into account the radius of the planet within your distance. In Layman terms, You use all three to figure out how much gravity one object exerts on another and vice versa.
Answer:
a) 2.4 mm
b) 1.2 mm
c) 1.2 mm
Explanation:
To find the widths of the maxima you use the diffraction condition for destructive interference, given by the following formula:
a: width of the slit
λ: wavelength
m: order of the minimum
for little angles you have:
y: height of the mth minimum
a) the width of the central maximum is 2*y for m=1:
b) the width of first maximum is y2-y1:
![w=y_2-y_1=\frac{(500*10^{-9}m)(1.2m)}{0.50*10^{-3}m}[2-1]=1.2mm](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=w%3Dy_2-y_1%3D%5Cfrac%7B%28500%2A10%5E%7B-9%7Dm%29%281.2m%29%7D%7B0.50%2A10%5E%7B-3%7Dm%7D%5B2-1%5D%3D1.2mm)
c) and for the second maximum:
![w=y_3-y_2=\frac{(500*10^{-9}m)(1.2m)}{0.50*10^{-3}m}[3-2]=1.2mm](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=w%3Dy_3-y_2%3D%5Cfrac%7B%28500%2A10%5E%7B-9%7Dm%29%281.2m%29%7D%7B0.50%2A10%5E%7B-3%7Dm%7D%5B3-2%5D%3D1.2mm)
Answer:
-2.5m/s²
Explanation:
The acceleration of a body is giving by the rate of change of the body's velocity. It is given by
a = Δv / t ----------------(i)
Where;
a = acceleration (measured in m/s²)
Δv = change in velocity = final velocity - initial velocity (measure in m/s)
t = time taken for the change (measured in seconds(s))
From the question;
i. initial velocity = 5m/s
final velocity = 0 [since the body (ball) comes to rest]
Δv = 0 - 5 = -5m/s
ii. time taken = t = 2s
<em>Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;</em>
a = (-5m/s) / (2s)
a = -2.5m/s²
Therefore, the acceleration of the ball is -2.5m/s²
NB: The negative sign shows that the ball was actually decelerating.
