the force that gravitation exerts upon a body, equal to the mass of the body times the local acceleration of gravity
PIT_PIT [208]

The force that gravitation exerts upon a body, equal to the mass of the body times the local acceleration of gravity is known as weight.

Weight is the force of gravity acting on a body.

The formula is :

                                W =mg

Here,

W is the weight or force acting on the body. m is the mass of the body, and g is the gravitational acceleration.

Since weight is also a force, so its SI unit is also newton. The value of weight varies from place to place depending on the gravity. Its value can also be equal to zero.

A ball is thrown vertically upward with a speed of 12.0 m/s. (<br> a. How high does it rise?
sdas [7]
It rises till all of its Kinetic energy is converted into potential energy.

so, mgh=(1/2)m(v^2)

so, h=(v^2)/2g = 12*12/(2*9.81)=7.34 m

Along a horizontal snow-covered track, a sled, of mass m = 105 kg, slides by the action of a horizontal force of 230 N. The coef
Andrew [12]

Answer:

Explanation:

The only thing I can figure you need here is the accleration of the sled. The equation we need to find this is Newton's Second Law that says that sum of the forces acting on an object is equal to the object's mass times its acceleration. For us, that looks like this because of the friction working against the sled:

F - f = ma but of course it's much more involved than that simple equation! We have the F value as 230 N, and we have the mass as 105, but we do not have the frictional force, f, and we need it to solve for a in the above equation. We know that

f = μF_n where μ is the coefficient of friction, and F_n is the normal force, aka weight of the object. We will use the coefficient of friction and find the weight in order to fill in for f:

F_n=mg so

F_n=(105)(9.8) so the weight of the sled is

F_n= 1.0 × 10³ with the correct number of sig dig there. Now to find f:

f = (.025)(1.0 × 10³) so

f = 25 to the correct number of sig fig. Now on to our "real" equation:

F - f = ma and

230 - 25 = 105a. We have to do the subtraction first, round, and then divide since the rules for addition and subtraction are different from the rules for dividing and multiplying.

230 - 25 will round to the tens place giving us 210. Then

210 = 105a. 210 has 2 sig figs in it while 105 has 3, so we will divide and round to 2 sig fig:

a = 2.0 m/sec²

If a star is moving away from you at a constant speed, how do the wavelengths of the absorption lines change as the star gets fa
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

they stay shifted the same amount to the red

Explanation:

Redshift is given by

z=\dfrac{\lambda_o-\lambda_e}{\lambda_e}

Where,

\lambda_o = Wavelength observed

\lambda_e = Wavelength emitted

Also

Transverse redshift is given by

1+z=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{1-v^2/c^2}}

v = Velocity of object

c = Speed of light = 3\times 10^8\ m/s

So, if the velocity is constant the redshift remains the same

Can someone please help
ki77a [65]

Answer:

Acceleration of that planet is 30 \frac{m}{s^{2} }.

Given:

initial speed of hammer = 0 \frac{m}{s}

time = 1 s

distance = 15 m

To find:

Acceleration due to gravity = ?

Formula used:

Distance covered by hammer is given by,

s = ut + \frac{1}{2} a t^{2}

s = distance

u = initial speed of hammer

t = time taken by hammer to reach ground

a = acceleration

Solution:

Distance covered by hammer is given by,

s = ut + \frac{1}{2} a t^{2}

s = distance

u = initial speed of hammer

t = time taken by hammer to reach ground

a = acceleration

u = 0

t = 1 s

s = 15 m

a = g

Thus substituting these value in above equation.

15 = 0 + \frac{1}{2} g 1^{2}

g = 15 × 2

g = 30 \frac{m}{s^{2} }

Thus, acceleration of that planet is 30 \frac{m}{s^{2} }.
