Answer:

B. It has mass

Explanation:

The Newtons Universal gravitacion law is : F = G. $\frac{m1 m2}{d^{2} }$ , where F is the force exerted , m1 and m2 are the earth's mass and the object's mass, d is the distance and G the gravitacional constant. Comparing to the options we can say that the Earth exerts a gravitational force on objects on its surface because of its mass.

True or False. If you kick a soccer ball and there are no forces like friction acting on it will it keep moving?

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Newton's laws states that gravity or force will stop the balls movement. Think of space for a example, if you pushed a soccer ball into space if would float for eternity.

A string of length 1.3 m is oscillating in a standing wave pattern. If the tension in the string is 430 N, the string has a mass

Vlad1618 [11]

To solve this problem we will use the concepts related to the speed of a string which is given by the applied voltage and the linear mass density of it. With the speed value we can find the fundamental frequency that will serve as a step to find the maximum speed through the relation of Amplitude and Angular Speed. So:

$v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu_e}}$
