Answer:

In SI units, its value is approximately 6.674×10−11 m3⋅kg−1⋅s−2. The modern notation of Newton's law involving G was introduced in the 1890s by C. V. Boys. The first implicit measurement with an accuracy within about 1% is attributed to Henry Cavendish in a 1798 experiment.

An object travels with velocity v = 4.0 meters/second and it makes an angle of 60.0° with the positive direction of the y-axis.

If you think about it, it makes a right triangle when you combine all the different types of forces together such as v, vx and vy. Then, you can use trigonometry and soh cah toa in order to figure out vx.

Two identical 0.400 kg masses are pressed against opposite ends of a light spring of force constant 1.75 N/cm, compressing the s

nlexa [21]

Answer:

0.853 m/s

Explanation:

Total energy stored in the spring = Total kinetic energy of the masses.

1/2ke² = 1/2m'v².................... Equation 1

Where k = spring constant of the spring, e = extension, m' = total mass, v = speed of the masses.

make v the subject of the equation,

v = e[√(k/m')].................... Equation 2

Given: e = 39 cm = 0.39 m, m' = 0.4+0.4 = 0.8 kg, k = 1.75 N/cm = 175 N/m.

Substitute into equation 2

v = 0.39[√(1.75/0.8)

v = 0.39[2.1875]

v = 0.853 m/s

Hence the speed of each mass = 0.853 m/s

Briefly explain the two postulates of relativity, how they differed from classical physics, and why Einstein was led to propose

Ray Of Light [21]

Explanation:

The two postulates of special theory of relativity

Postulate 1: The law of physics are invariant under any of inertial frame of reference.

Postulate 2: The velocity of light is remains same in each ans every frame of reference and independent of relativity.

They are differ from classical mechanics that in classical mechanics there is no change in mass and length in relative velocity but in relativistic mechanics it changes.

These two postulates implements in phenomenon like time dilation , length contraction etc.

A grandfather clock depends on the period of a pendulum to keep correct time.(ii) Suppose a grandfather clock is calibrated corr

ANEK [815]

The grandfather clock will now run slow (Option A).

<h3>What is Time Period of an oscillation?</h3>

The time period of an oscillation refers to the time taken by an object to complete one oscillation.
It is the inverse of frequency of oscillation; denoted by "T".

Now,

$\sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$ , where L is the length and g is the gravitational constant, is the formula for a pendulum's period.
The period will increase as one climbs a very tall mountain because g will slightly decrease.
Due to this and the previous issue, the clock runs slowly and it seems that one second is longer than it actually is.
