First, let's take a look at the equation for the force of gravity between two objects:
F = (GMm)/r², where,
G = gravitational constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹
M = mass of one object
m = mass of the other object
r = distance between the two objects
From this equation, we can see that the force of gravity is directly proportional to the mass of the two objects and inversely proportional to the distance between them. We can then say that the Earth is <span>more attracted to the sun than the moon because of the massive mass of the Sun (1.9891 x 10</span>³⁰)<span> compared to moon (7.3577 x 10</span>²²<span>). Although, the moon is nearer to the Earth, it has little effect to bring down the gravitational pull of the Sun. </span>
Answer: True
Explanation: When light is reflected off lets say a mirror it is bent and changes direction to bounce off of another wall or object. For example if you take a flash light and shine it into a mirror the light reflects into a different direction your welcome
Answer:
0.4778 m/s
Explanation:
To solve this question, we will make use of law of conservation of momentum.
We are given that the rock's velocity is 12 m/s at 35°. Thus, the horizontal component of this velocity is;
V_x = (12 m/s)(cos(35°)) = 9.83 m/s.
Thus, the horizontal component of the rock's momentum is;
(3.5 kg)(9.83 m/s) = 34.405 kg·m/s.
Since the person is not pushed up off the ice or down into it, his momentum will have no vertical component and so his momentum will have the same magnitude as the horizontal component of the rock's momentum.
Thus, to get the person's speed, we know that; momentum = mass x velocity
Mass of person = 72 kg and we have momentum as 34.405 kg·m/s
Thus;
34.405 = 72 x velocity
Velocity = 34.405/72
Velocity = 0.4778 m/s
F(of spring)=230x=ma=3.5(5)=17.5=230x; x=0.07m.
