Is gravity constant over the entire earth surface.Explain why?

1 answer:

5 0

Gravity is often assumed to be the same everywhere on Earth, but it varies because the planet is not perfectly spherical or uniformly dense. In addition, gravity is weaker at the equator due to centrifugal forces produced by the planet's rotation

Answer:

0.75 grams

Explanation:

Today we have 6 grams

In 30 years, 3 grams remain

In 60 years 1.5 grams remain

in 90 years 0.75 grams remain

mathematically It would look like this

m = 6(0.5⁽ⁿ/³⁰⁾) where n is number of years

Each of 100 identical blocks sitting on a frictionless surface is connected to the next block by a massless string. The first bl

o-na [289]

Answer:

The tension in the string connecting block 50 to block 51 is 50 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Number of block = 100

Force = 100 N

let m be the mass of each block.

We need to calculate the net force acting on the 100th block

Using second law of newton

$F=ma$

$100=100m\times a$

$ma=1\ N$

We need to calculate the tension in the string between blocks 99 and 100

Using formula of force

$F_{100-99}=ma$

$F_{100-99}=1$

We need to calculate the total number of masses attached to the string

Using formula for mass

$m'=(100-50)m$

$m'=50m$

We need to calculate the tension in the string connecting block 50 to block 51

Using formula of tension

$F_{50}=m'a$

Put the value into the formula

$F_{50}=50m\times a$

$F_{50}=50\times1$

$F_{50}=50\ N$

Hence, The tension in the string connecting block 50 to block 51 is 50 N.

A 60 cm diameter wheel accelerates from rest at a rate of 7 rad/s2. After the wheel has undergone 14 rotations, what is the radi

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

$a=368.97\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial angular velocity, $\omega=0$

Acceleration of the wheel, $\alpha =7\ rad/s^2$

Rotation, $\theta=14\ rotation=14\times 2\pi =87.96\ rad$

Let t is the time. Using second equation of kinematics can be calculated using time.

$\theta=\omega_it+\dfrac{1}{2}\alpha t^2\\\\t=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\theta}{\alpha }} \\\\t=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 87.96}{7}} \\\\t=5.01\ s$

Let $\omega_f$ is the final angular velocity and a is the radial component of acceleration.

$\omega_f=\omega_i+\alpha t\\\\\omega_f=0+7\times 5.01\\\\\omega_f=35.07\ rad/s$

Radial component of acceleration,

$a=\omega_f^2r\\\\a=(35.07)^2\times 0.3\\\\a=368.97\ m/s^2$

So, the required acceleration on the edge of the wheel is $368.97\ m/s^2$ .

Which of the following is the best definition of an element?

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

A. chemical substance whose atoms all have the same number of protons

Explanation:

An element is a substance which contains identical atoms that have the same number of protons in the nucleus.

Elements are arranged in the periodic table according to their atomic number (= number of protons): so atoms of different elements have a different number of protons in their nuclei.

For a neutral atom, the number of electrons around the nucleus is also equal to the number of protons.

Moreover, atoms of the same element can have a different number of neutrons, despite having the same number of protons - these atoms are called isotopes.
