Answer:

Newton's First Law of Motion is that an object in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by an outside force. Due to the lack of gravity in space, until a different outside force acts upon the object, the baseball will continue to move at a constant speed in the same direction for all time (until acted upon by something else).

Answer:

No force is more familiar than gravity — it’s what keeps our feet on the ground, after all. And Einstein’s theory of general relativity gives a mathematical formulation for gravity, describing it as a “warping” of space.

A man can jump 1.5 m on earth. calculate the approximate

Olegator [25]

Answer:

18 m

Explanation:

G = Gravitational constant

m = Mass of planet = $\rho V$

$\rho$ = Density of planet

V = Volume of planet assuming it is a sphere = $\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3$

r = Radius of planet

Acceleration due to gravity on a planet is given by

$g=\dfrac{Gm}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow g=\dfrac{G\rho V}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow g=\dfrac{G\rho \dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow g=\dfrac{4G\rho\pi r}{3}$

So,

$g\propto \rho r$

Density of other planet = $\rho_p=\dfrac{1}{4}\rho_e$

Radius of other planet = $r_p=\dfrac{1}{3}r_e$

$\dfrac{g_e}{g_p}=\dfrac{\rho_e r_e}{\rho_p r_p}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{g_e}{g_p}=\dfrac{\rho_e r_e}{\dfrac{1}{4}\rho_e\times \dfrac{1}{3}r_e}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{g_e}{g_p}=12\\\Rightarrow g_p=\dfrac{g_e}{12}\\\Rightarrow g_p=\dfrac{9.8}{12}$

Since the person is jumping up the acceleration due to gravity will be negative.

From kinematic equations we have

$v^2-u^2=2g_es\\\Rightarrow u^2=v^2-2g_es\\\Rightarrow u^2=0-2\times -9.8\times 1.5\\\Rightarrow u^2=2\times 9.8\times 1.5$

On the other planet

$v^2-u^2=2g_ps\\\Rightarrow s=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2g_p}\\\Rightarrow s=\dfrac{0-(2\times 9.8\times 1.5)}{2\times -\dfrac{9.8}{12}}\\\Rightarrow s=18\ \text{m}$

The man can jump a height of 18 m on the other planet.

How does emission spectra occur?

Lerok [7]

The frequencies of light that an atom can emit are dependent on states the electrons can be in. When excited, an electron moves to a higher energy level or orbital. When the electron falls back to its ground level the light is emitted.

hope this helped:)
