When you drop a 0.42 kg apple, Earth exerts a force on it that accelerates it at 9.8 m/s 2 toward the earth’s surface. According

to Newton’s third law, the apple must exert an equal but opposite force on Earth. If the mass of the earth 5.98 × 1024 kg, what is the magnitude of the earth’s acceleration toward the apple? Answer in units of m/s 2 .

Answer:

6.9×10⁻²⁵ m/s²

Explanation:

m = Mass

a = Acceleration

F = ma

Force exerted on apple

F=0.42\times 9.8\\\Rightarrow F=4.116\ N

From Newton's third law the opposite force would be the same but the mass is different which means the acceleration would be different

a=\frac{F}{M}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{4.116}{5.98\times 10^{24}}\\\Rightarrow a=6.9\times 10^{-25}\ m/s^2

The magnitude of the earth’s acceleration toward the apple is 6.9×10⁻²⁵ m/s²

Answer:

a = 6.97 × 10⁻²⁵ m/s²

Explanation:

given,

mass = 0.42 kg

g = 9.8 m/s²

mass of the earth = 5.98 × 10²⁴ kg

magnitude of earth acceleration = ?

F = m g

F = 0.42 × 9.8

F = 4.17 N

according to newtons third law Force exerted by the earth will be equal to force exerted by apple

m a = 4.17 N

a = \dfrac{4.17}{5.98 \times 10^{24}}

a = 0.697 × 10⁻²⁴ m/s²

a = 6.97 × 10⁻²⁵ m/s²

Hence, acceleration of earth toward apple is equal to  a = 6.97 × 10⁻²⁵ m/s²

A sprinter starts from rest and runs with constant acceleration to a top speed of 12m/s in 4.0 seconds.
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

  a =  3,0 m/s²

Explanation:

En este ejercicio se pide calcular la aceleracion del cuerpo, usemos las ecuaciones de cinematica en una dimensión.

          v= v₀ + a t

como el corredor parte del reposo si velocidad inicial es cero

           v =  at

           a = v/t

calculemos

          a = 12 /4,0

          a =  3,0 m/s²

Which of the following would have more momentum than fiona, a 313kg hippo, running at 8m/s?
kap26 [50]
Let's calculate the momentum of Fiona, given by the product between its mass and its speed:
p=mv=(313 kg)(8 m/s)=2504 kg m/s

Now let's compare it with the momentum of the other animals:
a) the mass of the sea turtle is missing, so we cannot calculate its momentum.
b) the momentum of the dolphin is 
p=mv=(150 kg)(18 m/s)=2700 kg m/s
c) the momentum of the horse is
p=mv=(380 kg)(4 m/s)=1520 kg m/s
d) the momentum of the lion is
p=mv=(190 kg)(11 m/s)=2090 m/s

And we can see that the correct answer is b), because the momentum of the dolphin is greater than the momentum of Fiona.
