The correct answer is C. Mercury and Mars have the same gravitational force

Explanation:

This chart compares the different features of two planets in our solar system (Mercury and Mars). In this chart, the only numerical value or feature that is the same for both planets is gravity because for both planets gravity is 1.7 m/s2. This implies the gravitational force or the force that attracts objects towards the center of the planet is the same or that objects are pulled with the same force in both planets. Moreover, this factor depends on others such as mass, density, among others.

Nicole throws a ball at 25 m/s at an angle of 60 degrees abound the horizontal. What is the range of the ball?

just olya [345]

Answer:

the range or the ball is 48.81 m

Explanation:

given;

Nicole throws a ball at 25 m/s at an angle of 60 degrees abound the horizontal.

find:

What is the range of the ball?

solution:

let Ф = 25°

Vo = 25 m/s

<u>consider x-motion using time of fight: x = Vox * t</u>

where x = R = range

t =<u> 2 Voy </u>

R =<u> Vo² sin (2Ф)</u>

plugin values into the formula:

R = <u>(25)² sin (2*25) </u>

9.81

R = 48.81 m

therefore, the range or the ball is 48.81 m

Joey is riding in an elevator which is accelerating upwards at 2.0 m/s2. The elevator weighs 300.0 kg, and Joey weighs 60.0 kg.

vodka [1.7K]

4200 N is the tension in the cable that pulls the elevator upwards.

The correct option is A.

<h3>What does tension ?</h3>

Tension is the force that is sent through a rope, thread, or wire whenever two opposing forces pull on it. Along the whole length of the wire, the tensile stress pulls equally on all objects at the ends. Every physical object that comes into contact with that other one exerts force on it.

<h3>Briefing:</h3>

We employ the following formula to determine the cable's tension.

Formula:

T = mg+ma............ Equation 1

Where:

T is the cable's tension.

M = Mass of the elevator and the Joey

Accelerating with a

g = Gravitational acceleration

Considering the query,

Given:

m = (300+60) = 360 kg

a = 2 m/s²

g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 2

T = (360×9.8)+(360×2)

T = 3528+720

T = 4248 N

T ≈ 4200 to the nearest hundred.

What is the total number of pounds of carbon dioxide that 2 trees remove from the air each<br> year?

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

On average, one acre of new forest can sequester about 2.5 tons of carbon annually. Young trees absorb CO2 at a rate of 13 pounds per tree each year. Trees reach their most productive stage of carbon storage at about 10 years at which point they are estimated to absorb 48 pounds of CO2 per year.

Develop an equation (with a proportionality constant) that describes the relationship between the gravitational force (fgrav), t

ivolga24 [154]

According to newton's law of gravitation, the gravitational force(F) is directly proportional to the product mass of the moon(Mm) and the mass of the planet (Mp) and it is inversely proportional to the square of the separation between them.

Fg ∝ (Mp)(Mm) →(1)

Fg ∝ 1/d²→(2)

Combining equation (1) and (2),

Fg ∝ (Mp)(Mm)/d²

Fg = G(Mp)(Mm)/d²

This is an equation that describes the relation between mass of moon (Mm) and mass of planet (Mp) and separation(d) between them.

To support the claim in favuor of this equation we use this equation to obtain the value of acceleration due to gravity on earth.

Let m be the mass of an object on earth then Fg between earth (Mp) and mass of an object is obtained by:

Fg = G(Mp)(m)/R², where R= Radius of earth

This force is equal to the weight of an object i.e.,

g= G(Mp)/R²

Putting the values of G, Mp and R , we get, g=9.81 m/s²

which is the value we obtained on earth for acceleration due to gravity.
