if we ignore air resistance the mass of an object does not affect the rate at which it accelerate why?​

Physics
1 answer:
quester [9]3 years ago

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The acceleration due to gravity on an object is independent of the mass of the object. This is so because, the acceleration due to gravity depends only on the radius of the earth and the mass of the earth.

As a result of this, all objects are accelerated to the same extent and should reach the ground at the same time when released from a height as long as other forces other than gravity are not at work.

DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

 The neutron core is completely destroyed

Explanation:

 A earth - supernova is an explosion resulting to the death of a star that occurs close enough to the earth but this does not completely destroy a star. Supernovae are the most violent explosions in the universe. But they do not explode like a bomb explodes, blowing away every bit of the original bomb. Rather, when a star explodes into a supernova, its core survives. The reason for this is that the explosion is caused by a gravitational rebound effect and not by a chemical reaction. Stars are so large that the gravitational forces holding them together are strong enough to keep the nuclear reactions from blowing them apart. It is the gravitational rebound that blows apart a star in a supernova.

What do a control group and an experiment group have in common ?
Vlad [161]
<span>Whatever the focus of the experiment is, plus any others factors that might influence the outcome of the experiment. If you are testing a new cancer drug, the experimental group and the control group must both be people with the same type of cancer, and both be a representative distribution of the population, all races, genders, ages, etc. You want the only difference in the two groups to be what you are studying, i.e. the effects of the drug.</span>

A singly charged positive ion has a mass of 3.46 × 10−26 kg. After being accelerated through a potential difference of 215 V the
jasenka [17]

Answer:

1.8 cm

Explanation:

m = mass of the singly charged positive ion = 3.46 x 10⁻²⁶ kg

q = charge on the singly charged positive ion = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

\Delta V =Potential difference through which the ion is accelerated = 215 V

v = Speed of the ion

Using conservation of energy

Kinetic energy gained by ion = Electric potential energy lost

(0.5) m v^{2} = q \Delta V\\(0.5) (3.46\times10^{-26}) v^{2} = (1.6\times10^{-19}) (215)\\(1.73\times10^{-26}) v^{2} = 344\times10^{-19}\\v = 4.5\times10^{4} ms^{-1}

r = Radius of the path followed by ion

B = Magnitude of magnetic field = 0.522 T

the magnetic force on the ion provides the necessary centripetal force, hence

qvB = \frac{mv^{2} }{r} \\qB = \frac{mv}{r}\\r =\frac{mv}{qB}\\r =\frac{(3.46\times10^{-26})(4.5\times10^{4})}{(1.6\times10^{-19})(0.522)}\\r = 0.018 m \\r = 1.8 cm
