An astronaut on a small planet wishes to measure the local value of g by timing pulses traveling down a wire which has a large o

bject suspended from it. Assume a wire of mass 4.00 g is 1.60 m long and has a 3.00-kg object suspended from it. A pulse requires 65.6 ms to traverse the length of the wire. Calculate gplanet from these data. (You may neglect the mass of the wire when calculating the tension in it.)

Answer:

The gplanet is 0.193 m/s^2

Explanation:

The speed of the pulse is:

v=\frac{lengthofthewipe}{traveltime} =\frac{1.6}{0.0656} =15.24m/s

v=\sqrt{\frac{MgL}{m} } \\v^{2} =\frac{MgL}{m} \\g=\frac{mv^{2} }{ML}

where

m=mass of the wire=4 g= 4x10^-3 kg

M=mass of the object= 3 kg

Replacing values:

g=\frac{4x10^{-3}*15.24^{2}  }{3*1.6} =0.193 m/s^{2}

How does air resistance affect how fast a feather falls?
Korvikt [17]

Answer: Ain't its because how light the feather is ? It's not as heavy.

Explanation: With air resistance, acceleration throughout a fall gets less than gravity (g) because air resistance affects the movement of the falling object by slowing it down. ... Usually, resistance is not very high at low speed or for small or sharp objects (Google Source if needed to prove yours answer)
