Answer:

7 seconds

Explanation:

Let's first write down what we have so that we can choose the correct equation of linear motion

initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

distance (x) = h = 240 m

acceleration (a) = g = 9.81 m/s²

$s = ut + \frac{at^{2} }{2} \\\\240 = (0)(t) + \frac{9.81t^{2} }{2}\\ \\9.81t^{2} = 480\\\\t = 6.99s\\\\t = 7 s$

A cart is pulled by a force of 250 N at an angle of 35° above the horizontal. The cart accelerates at 1.4 m/s2. The free-body di

Vikki [24]

Answer:

Mass of the cart = 146 kg

Explanation:

A cart is pulled by a force of 250 N at an angle of 35° above the horizontal.

The cart accelerates at 1.4 m/s² horizontally.

Horizontal force = Fcosθ = 250 cos35° = 204.79N

We have F = ma

Substituting

204.79 = m x 1.4

m = 146.28 kg = 146 kg

Mass of the cart = 146 kg

Consider the Uniform Circular Motion Gizmo configured as shown. Notice that, under the current settings, |a|=0.50m/s2. What chan

Eddi Din [679]

To increase the centripetal acceleration to $2.00 m/s^2$ , you can double the speed or decrease the radius by 1/4

Explanation:

An object is said to be in uniform circular motion when it is moving at a constant speed in a circular path.

The acceleration of an object in uniform circular motion is called centripetal acceleration, and it is given by

$a=\frac{v^2}{r}$

where

v is the speed of the object

r is the radius of the circular path

In the problem, the original centripetal acceleration is

$a=0.50 m/s^2$

We want to increase it by a factor of 4, i.e. to

$a'=2.00 m/s^2$

We notice that the centripetal acceleration is proportional to the square of the speed and inversely proportional to the radius, so we can do as follows:

- We can double the speed:

v' = 2v

This way, the new acceleration is

$a'=\frac{(2v)^2}{r}=4(\frac{v^2}{r})=4a$

so, 4 times the original acceleration

- We can decrease the radius to 1/4 of its original value:

$r'=\frac{1}{4}r$

So the new acceleration is

$a'=\frac{v^2}{(r/4)}=4(\frac{v^2}{r})=4a$

so, the acceleration has increased by a factor 4 again.

**Fill in the blanks**

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

Word for the first blank: gravity

Word for the second blank: matter

Explanation:

The only way debris from the impact with Earth can be held close to Earth is due to a force. The only force that could be acting from Earth is "the force of gravity".

The gravitational pull of this new object being formed, increases proportional to its mass as more and more "matter" accumulates. And the accretion process is now on its way.
