According to Newton's 3rd law the moon also attracts the earth with equal force which prevents it from falling towards the earth, while the gravitational pull of earth results in The revolution of the moon around the earth the force of the moon is not noticed on earth as the mass of the earth is much greater than that of the moon.

James (mass 95.0 kg ) and Ramon (mass 67.0 kg ) are 20.0 m apart on a frozen pond. Midway between them is a mug of their favorit
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

The speed of James is 0.776 m/s

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

mass of James = 95.0 kg

mass of Ramon = 67.0 kg

We consider James and Ramon and the rope to a single system. This means that the net external forces on the system = 0

.The momentum = 0, so the sum of the momentum of each part must be 0 in total.

Step 2: Calculate the speed of James

m(james) *v(James) = m(Ramon) * v(Ramon)

with m(James) = the mass of James = 95.0 kg

with v(James) = speed of James = TO BE DETERMINED

with m(Ramon) = mass of Ramon = 67.0 kg

with v(Ramon) = speed of Ramon = 1.10 m/s

v(James) =  (m(Ramon) * v(Ramon))/ m(james)

v(James) = (67.0 kg* 1.10 m/s) / 95.0 kg

v(James) = 0.776 m/s

The speed of James is 0.776 m/s

A swimmer swims 110 m toward the shore in 72 s. What is the swimmers velocity in neters per second?
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

1.53 m/s

Explanation:

Velocity is given in meters per second, so if it takes the swimmer 72 second to swim 110 meters:

m/s = 110 meters / 72 seconds = 1.527 or 1.53 m/s

A vertically polarized beam of light of intensity 100 W/m2 passes through two ideal polarizers. The transmission axis of the fir
TEA [102]

To solve the problem it is necessary to apply the Malus Law. Malus's law indicates that the intensity of a linearly polarized beam of light, which passes through a perfect analyzer with a vertical optical axis is equivalent to:

I=I_0 cos^2\theta

Where,

I_ {0} indicates the intensity of the light before passing through the polarizer,

I is the resulting intensity, and

\theta indicates the angle between the axis of the analyzer and the polarization axis of the incident light.

Since we have two objects the law would be,

I=I_0cos^2\theta_1*cos^2(\theta_2-\theta_1)

Replacing the values,

I=100*cos^2(20)*cos^2(40-20)

I=100*cos^4(20)

I=77.91W/m^2

Therefore the intesity of the light after it has passes through both polarizers is 77.91W/m^2
