Answer:
Explanation:
This is a simple gravitational force problem using the equation:
where F is the gravitational force, G is the universal gravitational constant, the m's are the masses of the2 objects, and r is the distance between the centers of the masses. I am going to state G to 3 sig fig's so that is the number of sig fig's we will have in our answer. If we are solving for the gravitational force, we can fill in everything else where it goes. Keep in mind that I am NOT rounding until the very end, even when I show some simplification before the final answer.
Filling in:
I'm going to do the math on the top and then on the bottom and divide at the end.
and now when I divide I will express my answer to the correct number of sig dig's:
6.45 × 10¹⁶ N
Answer:
C. 30.6m
Explanation:
To find the height of the tower, we are to use Newtons law of motion to solve this problem. Since the penny is falling from the top of the tower, it is acted by the acceleration due to gravity. The formula to be used is:
Where H is the height of the tower, t is the time taken to hit the ground, u is the initial velocity and g is the acceleration due to gravity.
Given that, t = 2.5 s, g =9.8 m/s², u = 0 m/s (at the top of tower)
Answer:
The final displacement from the origin is <u>1.6</u> km to the <u>NE</u>
Explanation:
The directions in which the delivery truck travels are;
1) 2.8 km North = 2.8·, in vector form
2) 1.0 km East = 1.0·, in vector form
3) 1.6 km South = -1.6·, in vector form
Therefore, to find the final displacement, Δx, of the delivery truck, we add the individual displacements as follows;
Final displacement, Δd = 2.8· + 1.0·
+(-1.6·
) = 1.2·
+ 1.0·
Final displacement, = 1.0· + 1.2·
Where;
Δx = The displacement in the x-direction = 1.0·
Δy = The displacement in the y-direction = 1.2·
The magnitude of the resultant displacement vector is given as follows
= √((Δx)² + (Δy)²) = √(1² + 1.2²) ≈ 1.6 (To the nearest tenth)
The magnitude of the resultant displacement vector ≈ 1.6 km
The direction of the resultant vector is positive for both the east and north direction, therefore, the direction of the resultant vector = NE
Therefore, the resultant displacement of the delivery truck is approximately 1.6 km, NE from the origin.
