To make gravity greater, you would need to have the following;

Much less difference, and a lot more mass.

A small rubber ball is launched by a compressed-air cannon from ground level with an initial speed of 17.3 m/s directly upward.

elena-s [515]

Answer:

h=15.27m

Explanation:

Since at maximum height the vertical velocity must be null it's better to use the formula:

$v_f^2=v_i^2+2ad$

We will use this formula for the vertical direction, choosing the upward direction as the positive one, so we have:

$0=v_i^2+2ah$

$h=-\frac{v_i^2}{2a}$

which for our values is:

$h=-\frac{(17.3m/s)^2}{2(-9.8m/s^2)}=15.27m$

Earth is about 150 million kilometers from the Sun, and the apparent brightness of the Sun in our sky is about 1300 watts/m2. Us

nalin [4]

Answer:

$13 W/m^2$

Explanation:

The apparent brightness follows an inverse square law, therefore we can write:

$I \propto \frac{1}{r^2}$

where I is the apparent brightness and r is the distance from the Sun.

We can also rewrite the law as

$\frac{I_2}{I_1}=\frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2}$ (1)

where in this problem, we have:

$I_1 = 1300 W/m^2$ apparent brightness at a distance $r_1$ , where

$r_1 = 150$ million km

We want to estimate the apparent brightness at $r_2$ , where $r_2$ is ten times $r_1$ , so

$r_2 = 10 r_1$

Re-arranging eq.(1), we find $I_2$ :

$I_2 = \frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2}I_1 = \frac{r_1^2}{(10r_1)^2}(1300)=\frac{1}{100}(1300)=13 W/m^2$

Why are the element from period 2 grouped together

valentinak56 [21]

All of the elements in a period have the same number of atomic orbitals. For example, every element in the top row (the first period) has one orbital for its electrons. All of the elements in the second row (the second period) have two orbitals for their electrons. As you move down the table, every row adds an orbital.

Two 51 g blocks are held 30 cm above a table. As shown in the figure, one of them is just touching a 30-long spring. The blocks

vivado [14]

The concept of this question can be well understood by listing out the parameters given.

The mass of the block = 51 g = 51 × 10⁻³ kg
The distance of the block from the table = 30 cm
Length of the spring = 30 cm

The purpose is to determine the spring constant.

Let us assume that the two blocks are Block A and Block B.

At point A on block A, the initial velocity on the block is zero

i.e. u = 0

We want to determine the time it requires for Block A to reach the table. The can be achieved by using the second equation of motion which can be expressed by using the formula.

$\mathsf{S = ut + \dfrac{1}{2}gt^2}$

From the above formula,

The distance (S) = 30 cm; we need to convert the unit to meter (m).

Since 1 cm = 0.01 m
Then, 30cm = 0.3 m

The acceleration (g) due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

∴

inputting the values into the equation above, we have;

$\mathsf{0.3 = (0)t + \dfrac{1}{2}*(9.80)*(t^2)}$

$\mathsf{0.3 = \dfrac{1}{2}*(9.80)*(t^2)}$

$\mathsf{0.3 =4.9*(t^2)}$

By dividing both sides by 4.9, we have:

$\mathsf{t^2 = \dfrac{0.3}{4.9}}$

$\mathsf{t^2 = 0.0612}$

$\mathsf{t = \sqrt{0.0612}}$

$\mathsf{t =0.247 \ seconds}$

However, block B comes to an instantaneous rest on point C. This is achieved by the dropping of the block on the spring. During this process, the spring is compressed and it bounces back to oscillate in that manner. The required time needed to get to this point C is half the period, this will eventually lead to the bouncing back of the block with another half of the period, thereby completing a movement of one period.

By applying the equation of the time period of a simple harmonic motion.

$\mathsf{T = 2 \pi \sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}}$
