Answer:

The gravitational force does change believe it or not, but the explaination for this is because the earths orbit is an oval (or a not circle) the closer it nears its self to the sun. the suns gravitational pull, pulls the earth to it bringing it closer and as it reaches the other side lets call this L when it reaches L it becomes the same gravitational pull reset as P is and another section over the sun lets call this M and when it reaches M its the same pull as Q, you get it now?

You are conducting an experiment inside an elevator that can move in a vertical shaft. A load is hung vertically from the ceilin
Ivan

Answer: The elevator must be accelerating.

Explanation:

As the tension force is opposing to the the force of gravity on the load which is hung vertically, and the tension force can adopt any value in order to comply with Newton's 2nd law, if the tension force is less than the force due to gravity, this means that all system is not in equilibrium, so it must be accelerating.

If we assume that the downward is the positive direction, we can write:

mg - T = ma

If T = 0.9 mg, ⇒ mg (1-0.9) =0.1 mg = m a ⇒a = 0.1 g , in downward direction.

The power of motor is 50 w the motor drags a 2 object horizontally at a constant speed of 10m/s along a rough floor . What is th
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Frictional force between the object and the floor=5 N

Explanation:

power= 50 W

velocity= 10 m/s

power= force * velocity

50=F * 10

F=50/10

F=5 N

Thus the force of friction= 5 N
