Which of two factors influence the weight of an object due to gravitational pull?

Physics
1 answer:
densk [106]3 years ago
5 0
The weight of an object when calculated by multiplying with the pull of the gravity is dependent on the mass of the object and the value of g. The value of g is constant however is still dependent on the distance of the object from the center of the Earth. Thus, the answers are <em>mass and distance. </em>

A packing crate rests on a horizontal surface. It is acted on by three horizontal forces: 600 N to the left, 200 N to the right,
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

The resultant force would (still) be zero.

Explanation:

Before the 600-N force is removed, the crate is not moving (relative to the surface.) Its velocity would be zero. Since its velocity isn't changing, its acceleration would also be zero.

In effect, the 600-N force to the left and 200-N force to the right combines and acts like a 400-N force to the left.

By Newton's Second Law, the resultant force on the crate would be zero. As a result, friction (the only other horizontal force on the crate) should balance that 400-N force. In this case, the friction should act in the opposite direction with a size of 400 N.

When the 600-N force is removed, there would only be two horizontal forces on the crate: the 200-N force to the right, and friction. The maximum friction possible must be at least 200 N such that the resultant force would still be zero. In this case, the static friction coefficient isn't known. As a result, it won't be possible to find the exact value of the maximum friction on the crate.

However, recall that before the 600-N force is removed, the friction on the crate is 400 N. The normal force on the crate (which is in the vertical direction) did not change. As a result, one can hence be assured that the maximum friction would be at least 400 N. That's sufficient for balancing the 200-N force to the right. Hence, the resultant force on the crate would still be zero, and the crate won't move.

Near the end of a marathon race, the first two runners are separated by a distance of 45.6 m. The front runner has a velocity of
morpeh [17]

Answer:17.08 s

Explanation:

Given

distance between First and second Runner is 45.6 m

speed of first runner(v_1)=3.1 m/s

speed of second runner(v_2)=4.65 m/s

Distance between first runner and finish line is 250 m

Second runner need to run a distance of 250+45.6=295.6 m

Time required by second runner t=\frac{295.6}{4.65}=63.56 s

time required by first runner to reach finish line=\frac{250}{3.1}=80.64 s

Thus second runner reach the finish line 80.64-63.56=17.08 s earlier

1. A spring extends by 10 cm when a mass of 100 g is attached to it. What is the spring constant? (Calculate your answer in N/m)
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

1) k = 10 [N/m]

2) a-) x = 0.4 [m]

b)  x = 0.075 [m]

Explanation:

To be able to solve this type of problems that include springs we must use Hooke's law, which relates the force to the deformed length of the spring and in the same way to the spring coefficient.

F = k*x

where:

F = force [N] (units of Newtons]

k = spring constant  [N/m]

x = distance = 10 [cm] = 0.1 [m]

Now, the weight is equal to the product of the mass by the gravity

W = m*g = F

where:

m = mass = 100 [g] = 0.1 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 10 [m/s²]

F = 0.1*10 = 1 [N]

Now clearing k

k = F/x

k = 1/0.1

k = 10 [N/m]

2)

a ) if the force is 4 [N]

clearing x

x = F/k

x = 4/10

x = 0.4 [m]

m = 75 [g] = 0.075 [kg]

W = m*g = F

F = 0.075*10 = 0.75 [N]

x = .75/10

x = 0.075 [m]

Covert 60 mph to SI mks units
Flauer [41]

26.82m/s

Explanation:

Given:

   speed = 60mph

 problem: convert to m/s

To solve this problem, we have to find the right and appropriate conversion factor which equals to 1 to multiply this unit with:

   we are converting:

      miles to meters

      hours to seconds

    1.609km = 1mile

      1000m = 1km

  60s = 1 min

   60 min = 1hr

Now to convert from mph to m/s

  60 x    \frac{mi}{hr}  x  \frac{1.609km}{1mi}   x   \frac{1000m}{1km}  x \frac{1hr}{60min}  x \frac{1m}{60s}

  =  26.82m/s
