Answer:

In physics, a gravitational field is a model used to explain the influence that a massive body extends into the space around itself, producing a force on another massive body. In its original concept, gravity was a force between point masses. Please give me the brainiest answer?

:) Hoped this helped!!! Have a good day!!! <3

Two points are on a disk turning at constant angular velocity. One point is on the rim and the other halfway between the rim and

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

The point on the rim

Explanation:

All the points on the disk travels at the same angular speed $\omega$ , since they cover the same angular displacement in the same time. Instead, the tangential speed of a point on the disk is given by

$v=\omega r$

where

$\omega$ is the angular speed

r is the distance of the point from the centre of the disk

As we can see, the tangential speed is directly proportional to the distance from the centre: so the point on the rim, having a larger r than the point halway between the rim and the axis, will have a larger tangential speed, and therefore will travel a greater distance in a given time.

Two horizontal forces are exerted on a large crate. The first force is 317 N to the right. The second force is 173 N to the left

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

A. Refer to the figure.

B. The net force acting on the crate is

$F_{net} = F_1 - F_2 = 317 - 173 = 144N$

C. We should first find the acceleration of the crate using the following kinematics equation:

$v = v_0 + at\\6.5 = 0 + 5a\\a = 1.3 m/s^2$

Mass of the crate can be found by Newton’s Second Law:

$F = Ma\\M = F/a = 144/1.3 = 110.7 kg$

4. As Juan is going to take a shower, the soap falls out of the soap dish on to the

LiRa [457]

The coefficient of friction between the soap and the floor is 0.081

If Juan steps on the soap with a force of 493 N, this is her weight, W. This weight also equals the normal reaction on the floor, N.

We know that frictional force F = μN where μ = coefficient of friction between soap and floor.

So, μ = F/N

Since F = 40 N and N = W = 493 N,

μ = F/N

μ = 40 N/493 N

μ = 0.081

So, the coefficient of friction between the soap and the floor is 0.081

A 0.537-kg basketball is dropped out of a window that is 5.88 m above the ground. The ball is caught by a person whose hands are

Monica [59]

Answer:

a) 20.54 J

b) 30.97 J

c) 10.43 J

d) -20.54 J

Explanation:

m = Mass

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h = Height

$W=mgh\\\Rightarrow W=0.537\times 9.81\times (5.88-1.98)\\\Rightarrow W=0.537\times 9.81\times 3.9\\\Rightarrow W=20.54\ J$

Work done by the ball's weight is 20.54 J

$W=mgh\\\Rightarrow W=0.537\times 9.81\times (5.88)\\\Rightarrow W=30.97\ J$

Gravitational potential energy of the basketball, relative to the ground, when it is released is 30.97 J

$W=mgh\\\Rightarrow W=0.537\times 9.81\times (1.98)\\\Rightarrow W=10.43\ J$

Gravitational potential energy of the basketball, relative to the ground, when it is released is 10.43 J

Change in gravitational potential energy

$\Delta U=10.43-30.97=-20.54\ J$

Change in gravitational potential energy is given by -20.54 J
