Gravity is an attractive force that works to pull objects together. If 2 objects are close the gravitational pull will be stronger 
Mass and distance determine gravity. The farther two things are away from each other, the weaker the gravitational forces are, the less mass an object has the less gravitational force it exerts

A plane is flying east when it drops some supplies to a designated target below. The supplies land after falling for 10 seconds.
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

solution:

As Given plane is flying in east direction.

It throws back some supplies to designated target.

Time taken by the supply to reach the target =10 seconds

g = Acceleration due to gravity = - 9.8 m/s²[Taken negative as object is falling Downwards]

As we have to find distance from the ground to plane which is given by d.

d = \frac{1}{2}\times g\times t^2

 = \frac{1}{2}\times (9.8) \times(100) =50\times 9.8=490 meters

Distance from the ground where supplies has to be land  to plane  =  Option B =490 meters

A projectile is fired vertically upwards and reaches a height of 78.4 m. Find the velocity of projection and the time it takes t
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

1.) U = 39.2 m/s

2.) t = 4s

Explanation: Given that the

height H = 78.4m

The projectile is fired vertically upwards under the acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s^2

Let's assume that the maximum height = 78.4m. And at maximum height, final velocity V = 0

Velocity of projections can be achieved by using the formula

V^2 = U^2 - 2gH

g will be negative as the object is moving against the gravity

0 = U^2 - 2 × 9.8 × 78.4

U^2 = 1536.64

U = sqrt( 1536.64 )

U = 39.2 m/s

The time it takes to reach its highest point can be calculated by using the formula;

V = U - gt

Where V = 0

Substitute U and t into the formula

0 = 39.2 - 9.8 × t

9.8t = 39.2

t = 39.2/9.8

t = 4 seconds.

If a substance is found to be reactive flammable soluble and explosive what observation is also a physical property
Ainat [17]

Answer:

  • <u><em>soluble</em></u>

Explanation:

Chemical properties only manifest when a chemical reaction occurs. Being reactive, flammable and explosive are chemical properties, because they involve chemical reactions: the substances are changed; the chemical bonds of some substances, called reactants, are broken, and the chemical bonds are created, forming other substances, called products.

Solubility is a<em> physical property</em> because during dissolution no new substances are formed. You can prove it when the solvent evaporates leaving behind the same original substance.

The the observation that the substance is <em>soluble</em> is describing a <em>physical property.</em>
