The gravitational acceleration is 9.81 m/s2 here on Earth at sea level. What is the gravitational acceleration at a height of 35
azamat

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the definition of severity of Newtonian laws in which it is specified that gravity is defined by

g= \frac{GM}{R^2}

Where

G= Gravitational Constant

M = Mass of Earth

R= Radius from center of the planet

According to the information we need to find the gravity 350km more than the radius of Earth, then

g_{ss} = \frac{GM}{R+h^2}

g_{ss} = \frac{6.67*10^{-11}*5.972*10^{24}}{(6371*10^3+350*10^3)^2}

g_{ss} = 8.82m/s^2

Therefore the gravitational acceleration at 350km is 8.82m/s^2

Mrac [35]

Answer: Igneous rock , formed by the cooling of magma (molten rock) inside the Earth or on the surface. Sedimentary rocks, formed from the products of weathering by cementation or precipitation on the Earth's surface. Metamorphic rocks, formed by temperature and pressure changes inside the Earth.

A ship 1200m off shore fires a gun. how long after the gun is fired will it be heard on the shore?​
ryzh [129]

Answer:

We know that the speed of sound is 343 m/s in air

we are also given the distance of the boat from the shore

From the provided data, we can easily find the time taken by the sound to reach the shore using the second equation of motion

s = ut + 1/2 at²

since the acceleration of sound is 0:

s = ut + 1/2 (0)t²

s = ut    <em>(here, u is the speed of sound , s is the distance travelled and t is the time taken)</em>

Replacing the variables in the equation with the values we know

1200 = 343 * t

t = 1200 / 343

t = 3.5 seconds (approx)

Therefore, the sound of the gun will be heard at the shore, 3.5 seconds after being fired
