In our usual coordinate system( +x to the right, +y up (away from the center of the Earth), +z out of the page toward you), what

is the vector gravitational force on a 31 kg object sitting on the ground? (From the momentum principle you can conclude that a force of the same magnitude is exerted upward by the ground on the object if the momentum isn't changing. In Chapter 4 we'll see more about the origin of this force.)

Answer:

The vector gravitational force is  W = 303.8\  N( -y)

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

      The mass of the object is  m  = 31 \ kg

      The acceleration due to gravity experienced by the object is g =  9.8 m/s^2

Generally the vector gravitational force on the object is mathematically represented as

                       W = 31 *  9.8

                       W = 303.8\  N (-y)

The  -y indicates that the direction of the force is towards the center of the earth

Write a rule for the sequence. 3, -3, -9, -15. A. Start with 3 and add -6 repeatedly B. Start with -6 and add 3 repeatedly C. St
faust18 [17]

Substract two consecutive terms of the sequence to see if there is a common difference:

\begin{gathered} (-3)-(3)=-3-3=-6 \\ (-9)-(-3)=-9+3=-6 \\ (-15)-(-9)=-15+9=-6 \end{gathered}

As we can see, there is a common difference of -6.

Then, if a number of the sequence is given, the next one can be found by adding -6 (which is the same as subtracting 6).

Notice that the first term of the sequence is 3.

Then, the rule for the sequence is to start with 3 and add -6 repeatedly.

Therefore, the correct choice is option A) Start with 3 and add -6 repeatedly.

First off, you need to know the weight of the projectile, lift and drag coefficients something like a high Reynolds number is preferred, then use the gravitational constant of 9.8 meters per second squared those would be a good start to get closer to your goal

It is 5.5 km from your home to the physics lab. As part of your physical fitness program, you could run that distance at 10 km/h
stealth61 [152]

Explanation:

Displacement = 5 km

A.

Converting km/h to m/s,

10 km/h * 1000 m/1 km * 1 h/3600 s

= 25/9 m/s

Remember,

700 watt = 700 J/s

Velocity = displacement/time

Time = 5000/(25/9)

= 1800 s

Energy = power * time

= 700 * 1800

= 1,260,000

= 1260 kJ

B.

Converting km/h to m/s,

3 km/h * 1000 m/1 km * 1 h/3600 s

= 5/6 m/s

290 watt = 290 J/s

Velocity = displacement/time

Time = 5000/(5/6)

= 6000 s

Energy = power * time

= 290 * 6000

= 1,740,000

= 1740 kJ

C.

Walking burns more energy; 1,740,000 joules. It burns more because you walk for a greater period of time.

How do the amplitudes of a 120 decibel sound and a 100-decibel sound compare?​
NemiM [27]
The 120 decibel sound has more amplitude than the 100 decibel sound.

In Physics, the relation between amplitude and intensity is that the intensity of the wave is directly proportional to the square of its amplitude.
