You are in a spaceship far outside our solar system. Inside your spaceship there is not gravity and no air (and therefore no air

resistance). If you toss a ball across the spaceship, how do Newton's laws predict its motion will change as it moves?

According to Newton's first law, without any forces bodies save their state of rest or motion. Since you tossed a ball, it will continue going along direction of the force you initially exerted in a straight line. What would happen after collision with the spaceship's walls is frankly speaking unpredictable because you don't know configuration of the surfaces that the ball will hit, but what we can say is that after each collision the ball will move in straight lines.

Newtons first law: The ball will go at constant speed without stopping

Newtons third law: The ball will also push back at you causing you to go back as well

Ratling [72]

Answer:

The magnitude of angular acceleration is 232.38\ rad/s^2.

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial angular velocity, \omega_i=3500\ rev/min=366.5\ rad/s

When it switched off, it comes o rest, \omega_f=0

Number of revolution, \theta=46=289.02\ rad

We need to find the magnitude of angular acceleration. It can be calculated using third equation of rotational kinematics as :

\omega_f^2-\omega_i^2=2\alpha \theta\\\\\alpha =\dfrac{-\omega_i^2}{2\theta}\\\\\alpha =\dfrac{-(366.51)^2}{2\times 289.02}\\\\\alpha =-232.38\ rad/s^2  

So, the magnitude of angular acceleration is 232.38\ rad/s^2. Hence, this is the required solution.

Two resistors, one with 7.00 Ω of resistance and the other with 11.00 Ω of resistance, are connected in series to a 9.00 V batte
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

4.5 W

Explanation:

Applying,

P = V²/(R₁+R₂).................. Equation 1

Where P = Power, V = Voltage, R₁ and R₂ = values of the two resistor.

From the question,

Given: V = 9.00 V, R₁ = 7.00 Ω, R₂ = 11.00  Ω

Substitute these values into equation 1

P = 9²/(7+11)

P = 81/(18)

P = 4.5 Watt.

Hence the power dessipated by the two resistors is 4.5 watt

1.what is gravity?(in your own words)
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

1.Gravity is an invisible force that pulls objects toward each other

2.The suns gravity pulls the planet towards the sun which changes the straight line of direction into a curve

That keeps the planet moving in an orbit around the sun

hope it helped:)

A block–spring system vibrating on a frictionless, horizontal surface with an amplitude of 7.0 cm has an energy of 14 J. If the
Bingel [31]

Answer:

E_T= 28J

Explanation:

The energy of Mass-Spring System the sum of the potential energy of the block plus the kinetic energy of the block:

E_T=U+K=\frac{1}{2} k \Delta x^2+\frac{1}{2} mv^2

Where:

\Delta x=Amplitude\hspace{3}or\hspace{3}d eformation\hspace{3} of\hspace{3} the\hspace{3} spring\\m=Mass\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}block\\k=Constant\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}spring\\v=Velocity\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}block

There are two cases, the first case is when the spring is compressed to its maximum value, in this case the value of the kinetic energy is zero, since there is no speed, so:

E_T=\frac{1}{2} k \Delta x^2\\\\14=\frac{1}{2} k7^2\\\\Solving\hspace{3} for\hspace{3} k\\\\k=\frac{28}{49} =\frac{4}{7}

The second case is when the block passes through its equilibrium position, in this case the elastic potential energy is zero since \Delta x=0, so:

E_T=\frac{1}{2} mv^2\\\\14=\frac{1}{2} mv^2\\\\Solving\hspace{3} for\hspace{3} v\\\\v^2=\frac{28}{m}

Now, let's find the energy of the system when the block is replaced by one whose mass is twice the mass of the original block using the previous data:

E_T=U+K=\frac{1}{2} k \Delta x^2+\frac{1}{2} m_2v^2

Where in this case:

m_2=New\hspace{3}mass=Twice\hspace{3} the\hspace{3} mass \hspace{3}of\hspace{3} the\hspace{3} original=2m

Therefore:

E_T=\frac{1}{2} (\frac{4}{7} ) (7^2)+\frac{1}{2} (2m)(\frac{28}{m_2})=\frac{1}{2} (\frac{4}{7} ) (7^2)+\frac{1}{2} (2m)(\frac{28}{2m})=14+14=28J
