Unequal length of day and nightRotation or Revolution

1 answer:

7 0

Rotation. The Earth rotates around the sun on it’s axis. Depending how far north or south you live, and the angle of the sun at different times of year gives you the amount of daylight or darkness you will receive. So the length of day or night depends on how much the sun is able to reach the spot on a round object such as the planet Earth.

Why the effect of gravitational force is more in liquid than in solid?

LekaFEV [45]

Gravitational force depends only on mass and distance, not on the state of matter.
The forces of attraction between molecules in matter are electromagnetic in nature, not gravitational.
These attractive forces are stronger in a solid than in a liquid than in a gas.
Gravitational forces between molecules is completely negligible compared to the em forces.

So, key answer is inter-molecular forces of solids is stronger than liquids.

For a freely falling object weighing 3 kg : A. what is the object's velocity 2 s after it's release. B. What is the kinetic ener

Fed [463]

A) 19.6 m/s (downward)

B) 576 J

C) 19.6 m

D) Velocity: not affected, kinetic energy: doubles, distance: not affected

Explanation:

An object in free fall is acted upon one force only, which is the force of gravity.

Therefore, the motion of an object in free fall is a uniformly accelerated motion (constant acceleration). Therefore, we can find its velocity by applying the following suvat equation:

$v=u+at$

where:

v is the velocity at time t

u is the initial velocity

$a=g=9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration due to gravity

For the object in this problem, taking downward as positive direction, we have:

$u=0$ (the object starts from rest)

$a=9.8 m/s^2$

Therefore, the velocity after

t = 2 s

is:

$v=0+(9.8)(2)=19.6 m/s$ (downward)

The kinetic energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its motion.

It can be calculated using the equation:

$KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where

m is the mass of the object

v is the speed of the object

For the object in the problem, at t = 2 s, we have:

m = 3 kg (mass of the object)

v = 19.6 m/s (speed of the object)

Therefore, its kinetic energy is:

$KE=\frac{1}{2}(3)(19.6)^2=576 J$

In order to find how far the object has fallen, we can use another suvat equation for uniformly accelerated motion:

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

where

s is the distance covered

u is the initial velocity

t is the time

a is the acceleration

For the object in free fall in this problem, we have:

u = 0 (it starts from rest)

$a=g=9.8 m/s^2$ (acceleration of gravity)

t = 2 s (time)

Therefore, the distance covered is

$s=0+\frac{1}{2}(9.8)(2)^2=19.6 m$

Here the mass of the object has been doubled, so now it is

M = 6 kg

For part A) (final velocity of the object), we notice that the equation that we use to find the velocity does not depend at all on the mass of the object. This means that the value of the final velocity is not affected.

For part B) (kinetic energy), we notice that the kinetic energy depends on the mass, so in this case this value has changed.

The new kinetic energy is

$KE'=\frac{1}{2}Mv^2$

where

M = 6 kg is the new mass

v = 19.6 m/s is the speed

Substituting,

$KE'=\frac{1}{2}(6)(19.6)^2=1152 J$

And we see that this value is twice the value calculated in part A: so, the kinetic energy has doubled.

Finally, for part c) (distance covered), we see that its equation does not depend on the mass, therefore this value is not affected.
