<u>Answer</u>

Gravitational force

<u>Explanation</u>

Gravitational force is the force of attraction between two bodies of a given masses. It is calculated as follows:

Gravitational force = GM₁M₂/r²

From the formula it can be seen that gravitational force is inversely proportional to the r where are is the distance between the two bodies.

When the distance increases the gravitational force decreases.

Answer:

The angular speed after 6s is $\omega = 1466.67s^{-1}$ .

Explanation:

The equation

$I\alpha = Fd$

relates the moment of inertia $I$ of a rigid body, and its angular acceleration $\alpha$ , with the force applied $F$ at a distance $d$ from the axis of rotation.

In our case, the force applied is $F = 22N$ , at a distance $d = 6cm =0.06m$ , to a ring with the moment of inertia of $I =mr^2$ ; therefore, the angular acceleration is

$\alpha =\frac{Fd}{I}$

$\alpha =\frac{22N*0.06m}{(1.5kg)*(0.06)^2}$

$\alpha = 244.44\: s^{-2}$

Therefore, the angular speed $\omega$ which is

$\omega = \alpha t$

after 6 seconds is

$\omega = 244.44$\: s^{-2}* 6s$

$\boxed{\omega = 1466.67s^{-1}}$

An object of mass m is traveling in a circle with centripetal force Fc. If the velocity of the object is v, what is the radius o

borishaifa [10]

Hi there!

Recall the equation for centripetal force:
$F_c = \frac{mv^2}{r}$

We can rearrange the equation to solve for 'r'.

Multiply both sides by r:
$r * F_c = mv^2$

Divide both sides by Fc:
$\boxed{ r= \frac{mv^2}{F_c}}$

An object with a mass of 25 kg object is moving at 30 m/s. What is the

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer: 750 kgm/s

Explanation:

Mass of object = 25 kg

Speed by which object moves =30 m/s. Linear momentum of the object = ?

Since momentum refers to the quantity of motion of the moving object,

Linear momentum = Mass x Speed

= 25kg x 30m/s

= 750 kgm/s

Thus, the linear momentum of the object is 750 kgm/s

Heights of men on a baseball team have a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 166 cm 166 cm and a standard deviation of 5 cm

kaheart [24]

Answer:

95 %

99.7 %

Explanation:

$\mu$ = 166 cm = Mean

$\sigma$ = 5 cm = Standard deviation

a) 156 cm and 176 cm

$166-5\times 2=156$

$166+5\times 2=176$

From the empirical rule 95% of all values are within 2 standard deviation of the mean, so about 95% of men are between 156 cm and 176 cm.

b) 151 cm and 181 cm

$166-5\times 3 =151$

$166+5\times 3=181$

The empirical rule tells us that about 99.7% of all values are within 3 standard deviations of the mean, so about 99.7% of men are between 151 cm and 181 cm.

What two models are used to describe how light behaves

S_A_V [24]

Answer:

Light is one of nature's ways of moving energy from one place to another.

Explanation:

It has no substance, or mass. How does light travel? Light behaves like a traveling wave, something like waves in a string or on the surface of water.
