Which single force acts on an object in free fall

Physics
2 answers:
Pavel [41]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Gravitational force

Explanation:

An object moving under free fall, the force acting on it is only gravity. The object move under the action of gravitational force. The force of gravity is always attractive. This force depends on the masses and the distance between masses.

Hence, force of gravity is the only force acting on the object when it is moving in free fall.

A 2.43ug particle moves at 1.97 x 108 m/s. What is its momentum?
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

0.48 kgm/s

Explanation:

m = mass of the particle = 2.43 μg = 2.43 x 10⁻⁶ x 10⁻³ kg = 2.43 x 10⁻⁹ kg

v  = velocity of the particle = 1.97 x 10⁸ m/s

p = momentum of the particle

momentum of the particle is given as

p = m v

inserting the values

p = (2.43\times 10^{-9})(1.97\times 10^{8})

p = 0.48 kgm/s

In reaching her destination, a backpacker walks with an average velocity of 1.22 m/s, due west. This average velocity results be
Vinvika [58]
Wow! 2.95m/s is a mighty fast pace for a backpacker. Must have one of those Star Wars anti-gravity packs. Also, I would be curious as to why she passed her destination and then walked back. 
<span>Anyway, it goes like this: </span>
<span>Say the time walking east is 't', and the total time is 'T'. </span>
<span>Then 5340 m + .511 t = 1.43 T </span>
<span>(This assumes that velocity is positive in both directions) </span>
<span>Two unknowns in one equation. But you also know that the time spent walking west is </span>
<span>5340m/ 2.95m/s = 1810 sec. </span>
<span>and the total time T = 1810 +t </span>
<span>Substitute this into the first equation, and you can solve for t = 3092 sec. </span>
<span>Then T = 4902 sec. and distance walked east is .511t = 1580m.</span>

1. Faça as transformações:
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

seconds (s) = hours (h) *3,600 ; h = \frac{s}{3,600} \\g = kg * 1,000; kg = \frac{g}{1,000} \\cm = \frac{m}{100};m = cm * 100

1. a) 0.5 h = 1,800 s

  h) 20 cm = 0.2 m

  b) 2.0 h = 7,200 s

   i) 5.0 kg = 5,000 g

  c) 3.5 h = 12,600 s

  j) 1.5 kg = 1,500 g

  d) 1/4 h = 900 s

  k) 450.0 g = 0.45 kg

  e) 3.0 m = 300 cm

   l) 20.0 g = 0.02 kg

  f) 2.5 m = 250 cm

  m) 500.0 g = 0.5 kg

   g) 0.5 m = 500 mm

   n) 1000.0 g = 1 kg

A branch falls from a tree How fast is the branch moving after 0 28 seconds
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

c. 2.7 m/s

Explanation:

v = a.t + v_{0}\\a = g = 9.81 m/s^{2}} \\t=0.28 s \\v_{0} = 0\\=> v = 9.81 * 0.28 = 2.74 m/s

Why doesn't the force of gravity change the speed of a bowling ball as it rolls along a bowling lane?
Oliga [24]
Because the gravitational force, which points downward, is perfectly balanced by the normal reaction of the floor of the bowling lane, which points upward. The two forces are equal in magnitude, so the net force acting vertically on the bowling ball is zero, therefore there is no acceleration along this direction. Moreover, since the ball is moving in the horizontal direction, the gravitational force has no component along this direction, so it does not change the velocity of the ball.
