Which statement best describes the relationship between mass and gravitational attraction (pull)?

Physics
1 answer:
Gnesinka [82]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The first option, "The more mass an object has, the greater the gravitational pull. "

Explanation:

Newton's Law of Gravity states that F_G=\frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^{2}}, where G is the gravitational constant, m_1 and m_2 are the masses of the two objects, and <em>r</em> is the distance between the objects' centers. Because the objects' masses are in the fraction's numerator, they are directly proportional to F_G, and increasing the mass of one or both objects increases the gravitational pull.

Please have a great day! I hope this helps you understand the question!

A tennis ball is dropped from 1.43 m above the
Rudiy27

Answer:

-5.29 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

y₀ = 1.43 m

y = 0 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = -9.8 m/s²

Find: v

v² = v₀² + 2a (y − y₀)

v² = (0 m/s)² + 2(-9.8 m/s²) (0 m − 1.43 m)

v = -5.29 m/s

If the range of the projectile is 4.3 m, the time-of-flight is T = 0.829 s, and air resistance is negligible, determine the foll
ankoles [38]

Answer

given,

range of the projectile = 4.3 m

time of flight = T = 0.829 s

v =\dfrac{d}{T}

v =\dfrac{4.3}{0.829}

     v = 5.19 m/s

vertical component of velocity of projectile

v_y = gt'

v_y = 9.8 \times {\dfrac{T}{2}}

v_y = 9.8 \times {\dfrac{0.829}{2}}

v_y =4.06\ m/s

a) Launch angle

 \theta = tan^{-1}(\dfrac{v_y}{v})

 \theta = tan^{-1}(\dfrac{4.06}{5.19})

    θ = 38°

b) initial speed of projectile

  v = \sqrt{v_x^2 + v_y^2}

  v = \sqrt{5.19^2 + 4.06^2}

         v = 6.59 m/s

c) maximum height reached by the projectile

     y_{max}=v_{avg}t'

     y_{max}=\dfrac{1}{2}v_y\dfrac{T}{2}

     y_{max}=\dfrac{1}{2}\times(g\dfrac{T}{2})\times\dfrac{T}{2}

     y_{max}=\dfrac{gT^2}{8}

When a medium is disturbed by a wave, does it move with the wave?
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

As they vibrate, they pass the energy of the disturbance to the particles next to them, which pass the energy to the particles next to them, and so on. Particles of the medium don't actually travel along with the wave. Only the energy of the wave travels through the medium

You drop a 14-g ball from a height of 1.5 m and it only bounces back to a height of 0.85 m. what was the total impulse on the ba
Allisa [31]
<span>Remember that  impulse = change in momentum 

this means we compute the momentum of the ball just before impression and just after; we know the mass, so we find the speeds 

the ball falls for 1.5m and will achieve a speed given by energy conservation: 

1/2 mv^2 = mgh => v=sqrt[2gh]=5.42m/s 

since it rises only to 0.85 m, we compute the initial speed after power from the same equation and get 
v(after)=sqrt[2*9.81m/s/s*0.85m] = 4.0837 m... 

now, recall that momentum is a vector, so that the momentum down has one sign and the momentum up has a positive sign, so we have 

impulse = delta (mv) = m delta v = 0.014 kx (4.08m/s - (-5.42m/s) = 0.133 kgm/s </span>
