Which of the following objects in motion has the highest inertia?

Physics
1 answer:
Svetach [21]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

D.) A 15 kg mass moving at 2.0 m/s

Explanation:

The inertia of an object is most directly related to its mass and not the magnitude of the velocity.

So, the higher the mass of an object, the more its inertia.

According to Newton's first law of motion "an object will remain in its state of rest or of constant motion unless it is acted upon by an external force".

  • Inertia is the tendency of a body to remain in a state of rest either by virtue of its static position of constant motion.
  • The larger the mass, the more this tendency.
  • An object with a large mass will take more force to bring it from rest or change its motion.

The planet Gallifrey has 2 times the gravitational field strength and 2 times the radius of the Earth.
Alexeev081 [22]

The mass of the planet Gallifrey is 8 times the mass of the Earth.

  • let the gravitational field of Earth = g
  • let the radius of the Earth = R
  • gravitational field of Gallifrey = 2g
  • radius of Gallifrey = 2R

<h3>What is gravitational potential energy?</h3>
  • This is the work done in moving an object to a certain distance against gravitational field.

The gravitational field strength of the Earth is given as follows;

g = \frac{GM}{r^2} \\\\G = \frac{gr^2}{M}

The gravitational field strength of the Planet Gallifrey is calculated as follows;

g_2 = \frac{GM_2}{r_2^2}

G = \frac{g_2r_2^2}{M_2} \\\\\frac{g_2r_2^2}{M_2} = \frac{gr^2}{M}\\\\M_2gr^2 = Mg_2r_2^2\\\\M_2 = \frac{Mg_2r_2^2}{gr^2} \\\\M_2 = \frac{M \times 2g \times (2r)^2}{gr^2} \\\\M_2 = \frac{M \times 2g \times 4r^2}{gr^2} \\\\M_2 = 8M

Thus, the mass of the planet Gallifrey is 8 times the mass of the Earth.

Explain the relationship between force, mass and acceleration in Newton's second law
Nikitich [7]

Newton's  second law of motion describes what happens to a body when an external  force is applied to it.

Newton's second law of motion states that the force acting on an object is equal to the mass of that object times its acceleration. In mathematical form this is written as

F = ma

Where F is force , m is mass and a is acceleration. The math or logic  behind this is that if  you double the force, you double the acceleration, but if you double the mass, you cut the acceleration in half.

Why is earth the only planet on which water exists in a liquid state
Gennadij [26K]
This is due to earths location in the solar system. Earth is in the habitat zone or the Goldie locks zone, in this zone it's not too hot or not too cold for water to exist. Other planets in different star systems have liquid oceans due to them being in the habitat zone.

NEED IT ASAP PLEASE 3 examples of how we use physics in our everyday life. Please explain throughly.
Flauer [41]

Answer:

  1. Alarm Clock. The buzzing sound of an alarm clock helps you wake up in the morning as per your schedule. The sound is something that you can’t see, but hear or experience.
  2. Cell Phones Cellphones have become like Oxygen gas in modern social life. Hardly, anyone would have been untouched by the effects of a cell phone. Whether conveying any urgent message or doing incessant gossips, cellphones are everywhere. But do you know how does a cell phone work? It works on the principle of electricity and the electromagnetic spectrum, undulating patterns of electricity and magnetism.
  3. Walking.Now, when you get ready for your office/school, whatever medium of commutation is, you certainly have to walk up to a certain distance. You can easily walk is just because of Physics. While you have a walk in a park or on a tar road, you have a good grip without slipping because of a sort of roughness or resistance between the soles of your shoes and the surface of the road.

Explanation:

physical is related to things perceived through the senses as opposed to the mind; tangible or concrete.
