Answer:

They are made from Minerals.

Explanation:

Rocks are composed of grains of minerals, which are homogeneous solids formed from a chemical compound arranged in a orderly manner. The aggregate minerals forming the rock are held together by chemical bonds. the types and abundance of minerals in a rock are determined by the manner in which it was formed.

Knowing the constant g what will the gravitational force between two masses be if the gravitational force between them is 36n an

charle [14.2K]

The gravitational force between two masses is given by:
$F=G \frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}$
where
G is the gravitational constant
m1 and m2 are the two masses
r is the separation between the two masses

We see that the force is proportional to the inverse of the square of the distance: $F \sim \frac{1}{r^2}$
therefore, if the distance is tripled:
r'=3r
The force decreases by a factor 1/9:
$F \sim \frac{1}{(3r)^2}= \frac{1}{9} \frac{1}{r^2}$

Since the original force was 36 N, the new force will be
$F' = \frac{1}{9} (36 N)= 4 N$

The average period of pendulum clock is found to be 1.2s at sea level. The period of the same pendulum on a mountain top is foun

Kipish [7]

Answer:

g' = 10.12m/s^2

Explanation:

In order to calculate the acceleration due to gravity at the top of the mountain, you first calculate the length of the pendulum, by using the information about the period at the sea level.

You use the following formula:

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}$ (1)

l: length of the pendulum = ?

g: acceleration due to gravity at sea level = 9.79m/s^2

T: period of the pendulum at sea level = 1.2s

You solve for l in the equation (1):

$l=\frac{gT^2}{4\pi^2}\\\\l=\frac{(9.79m/s^2)(1.2s)^2}{4\pi^2}=0.35m$

Next, you use the information about the length of the pendulum and the period at the top of the mountain, to calculate the acceleration due to gravity in such a place:

$T'=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g'}}\\\\g'=\frac{4\pi^2l}{T'^2}$

g': acceleration due to gravity at the top of the mountain

T': new period of the pendulum

$g'=\frac{4\pi^2(0.35m)}{(1.18s)^2}=10.12\frac{m}{s^2}$

The acceleration due to gravity at the top of the mountain is 10.12m/s^2

a child is stationary on a swing. The child is given a push by a parent and the child starts swinging

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

you havent given the full question

but im guessing momentum

momentum is the quantity of motion of a moving body, measured as a product of its mass and velocity or the impetus gained by a moving object.

Explanation:

as the child is pushed, it gathers momentum as its weight allows it be pushed forward, and the velocity is the speed driven by the amount of force the parent pushes on the child whilst they are swinging. The momentum is the result of this action

the equation that links these factors together are

p = mv

p = momentum

m = mass

v = velocity

hope i got it right ._.
