The correct answer would be A.The acceleration of gravity is <span>9.81 m/s^2. This is calculated by using the equation:

a = GM/r</span>²

where G is the gravitational constant 6.6726 x 10-11N-m2/kg2, M is the mass of the planet (<span>5.9736E+24 kg) and r is the radius of the planet.

Answer:

C) 9.75m/s^2

Explanation:

Acceleration of gravity is calculated with the following formula:

g=\frac{GM}{r^2}

Where G It is the universal gravitational constant

G=6.674x10^{-11}Nm^2/kg^2

and M is the mass of the earth:

M=5.972x10^{24} kg

r is the distance from the center of earth wich will be in this case the earth's radius plus the altitude of the airplane:

r=6.37x10^{6} m + 20000m=6.39x10^{6}m

thus, the acceleration g is:

g=\frac{(6.674x10^{-11}Nm^2/kg^2)(5.972x10^{24} kg)}{(6.39x10^{6}m)^2} =9.75m/s^2

Momentum

mava + mbvb = mava '+ mbvb'

(300 x 10)+(150 x 0) = (300 x 4.12)+(150 x vb')

3000=1236+150vb'

1764 = 150vb'

vb'=+11.76 m/s ≈ +11.8 m/s (positive sign, to the right)

A pendulum has a 0.35\ \text{kg}0.35 kg0, point, 35, space, start text, k, g, end text mass oscillating at a small angle from a
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

The frequency of oscillation of the simple pendulum is 0.49 Hz.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the simple pendulum, m = 0.35 kg

Length of the string to which it is attached, l = 1 m

We need to find the frequency of oscillation. The frequency of oscillation of the simple pendulum is given by :

f=\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{g}{l}} \\\\f=\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{9.8}{1}} \\\\f=0.49\ Hz

So, the frequency of oscillation of the simple pendulum is 0.49 Hz. Hence, this is the required solution.

What is the formula to find the second charge in Coulomb's Law?
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

1.F is the electrostatic force between charges (in Newtons),

2.q₁ is the magnitude of the first charge (in Coulombs),

3.q₂ is the magnitude of the second charge (in Coulombs),

4.r is the shortest distance between the charges (in m),

5.ke is the Coulomb's constant. It is equal to 8.98755 × 10⁹ N·m²/C² .

3. How long will it take a ball to reach the ground if it falls from a cliff 25 m tall (starting from rest)? What if the ball we
Nady [450]

Answer:

2.26 s

Explanation:

Let's take down to be positive.

Given (in the y direction):

Δy = 25 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 9.8 m/s²

Find: t

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

25 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (9.8 m/s²) t²

25 = 4.9t²

t = 2.26 s

If the ball instead had an initial horizontal velocity of 5 m/s, its initial vertical velocity is still 0 m/s.  So the time to fall is still 2.26 s.
