Mercury, Mars, and Earth’s moon all show evidence of heavy cratering from meteor impacts while Earth shows much less evidence of

meteor impacts. The most reasonable conclusion to make from this data is that the early solar system had a much higher density of rocky material, but–
a) Earth has been resurfaced by ongoing processes.
b) the rocky material was less likely to reach Earth.
c) Earth formed much later, when the solar system had fewer meteors.
d) the protection from impact provided by Earth’s atmosphere is decreasing.

A ball is projected into the air. Where is potential energy the greatest? A) A. B) B. C) C. D) A. and C.
Ksju [112]

The point with the greatest potential energy is B.

The potential energy of an object is depends on the relative distance between the object and the ground and its mass. The higher the object is from the ground the greater the potential energy posses.

Potential energy (P.E) = mgh

Where m is the mass, g is the gravity and h is the height from the ground to where the object is.

Since the mass and gravity is constant in this case, only the height will determine the point with the greatest P.E and that point is B.

A ledge on a building is 20 m above the ground. A taut rope attached to a 4.0 kg can of paint sitting on the ledge passes up ove
Andrews [41]

Answer:

 t = 5.4 s

Explanation:

from the question we are given :

height (s) = 20 m

mass of paint (Mp) = 4 kg

mass of nails (Mn) = 3 kg

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^{2}

  • The net force accelerating the can of paint should be equal to the difference in weight of the can of paint and the can of nails.

            weight of nails = mass of nails x g = 3 x 9.8 = 29.4 N

            weight of paint = mass nails x g = 4 x 9.8 = 39.2 N

             net force = 39.2 - 29.4 = 9.8 N

  • net force = total mass x acceleration

             9.8 = (3 +4) x a

              a = 1.4 m/s^{2}

  • from S = Ut + 0.5at^{2}  we can get  the time the carpenter has to catch the nails

          where U is the initial velocity and is 0 since the can was initially at            

            rest

           20 = (0 x t) + (0.5 x 1.4 x t^{2})

            20 = 0.7 x t^{2}

             t^{2} = 28.6

             t = 5.4 s

Three ropes A, B and C are tied together in one single knot K. (See figure.)
noname [10]

The tension in the rope B is determined as 10.9 N.

<h3>Vertical angle of cable B</h3>

tanθ = (6 - 4)/(5 - 0)

tan θ = (2)/(5)

tan θ = 0.4

θ = arc tan(0.4) = 21.8 ⁰

<h3>Angle between B and C</h3>

θ = 21.8 ⁰ + 21.8 ⁰ = 43.6⁰

Apply cosine rule to determine the tension in rope B;

A² = B² + C² - 2BC(cos A)

B = C

A² = B² + B² - (2B²)(cos A)

A² = 2B² - 2B²(cos 43.6)

A² = 0.55B²

B² = A²/0.55

B² = 65.3/0.55

B² = 118.73

B = √(118.73)

B = 10.9 N

Thus, the tension in the rope B is determined as 10.9 N.
