Force is determined by multiplying mass and gravity (F= mg). To determine the answer, the mass of the elephant (5600 kg) is multiplied with the gravity (9.8 m/s²). The answer is 5800 N. This is the upward gravitational force that the elephant exerts on the earth.
Because mass does not change from place to place but weight does change from place to place... why? because weight is the amount of gravitational force on an object and mass is the amount of matter in an object. mars has less gravitational force so an object will weigh less than it really weighs there
Answer:
n = 5 approx
Explanation:
If v be the velocity before the contact with the ground and v₁ be the velocity of bouncing back
= e ( coefficient of restitution ) = 
and
h₁ is height up-to which the ball bounces back after first bounce.
From the two equations we can write that
So on
= .00396
Taking log on both sides
- n / 2 = log .00396
n / 2 = 2.4
n = 5 approx
For this case, let's
assume that the pot spends exactly half of its time going up, and half going
down, i.e. it is visible upward for 0.245 s and downward for 0.245 s. Let us take
the bottom of the window to be zero on a vertical axis pointing upward. All calculations
will be made in reference to this coordinate system. <span>
An initial condition has been supplied by the problem:
s=1.80m when t=0.245s
<span>This means that it takes the pot 0.245 seconds to travel
upward 1.8m. Knowing that the gravitational acceleration acts downward
constantly at 9.81m/s^2, and based on this information we can use the formula:
s=(v)(t)+(1/2)(a)(t^2)
to solve for v, the initial velocity of the pot as it enters
the cat's view through the window. Substituting and solving (note that
gravitational acceleration is negative since this is opposite our coordinate
orientation):
(1.8m)=(v)(0.245s)+(1/2)(-9.81m/s^2)(0.245s)^2
v=8.549m/s
<span>Now we know the initial velocity of the pot right when it
enters the view of the window. We know that at the apex of its flight, the
pot's velocity will be v=0, and using this piece of information we can use the
kinematic equation:
(v final)=(v initial)+(a)(t)
to solve for the time it will take for the pot to reach the
apex of its flight. Because (v final)=0, this equation will look like
0=(v)+(a)(t)
Substituting and solving for t:
0=(8.549m/s)+(-9.81m/s^2)(t)
t=0.8714s
<span>Using this information and the kinematic equation we can find
the total height of the pot’s flight:
s=(v)(t)+(1/2)(a)(t^2) </span></span></span></span>
s=8.549m/s (0.8714s)-0.5(9.81m/s^2)(0.8714s)^2
s=3.725m<span>
This distance is measured from the bottom of the window, and
so we will need to subtract 1.80m from it to find the distance from the top of
the window:
3.725m – 1.8m=1.925m</span>
Answer:
<span>1.925m</span>
