State the average value of acceleration due to gravity

Physics
1 answer:
Pavlova-9 [17]3 years ago
8 0
The acceleration due to gravity varies in different positions on Earth. However it is said to be negligible and 9.8 m/s is used. Sometimes people use 10 m/s or 9.81 m/s

A balloon of mass M is floating motionless in the air. A person of mass less than M is on a rope ladder hanging from the balloon
Tasya [4]

Let the mass of the person be m. Total momentum is conserved (because the exterior forces on the system are balanced), especially the component in the vertical direction.

Given that,

Mass of gallon is M

Let man mass be m

Velocity of man is v

Let velocity if ballot be Vb

When the person begin to move we have

Conservation of momentum

mv + MVb=0

MVb=-mv

Vb= -(m/M) v

Given that the mass of man is less than mass of balloon. i.e. m<M

So, if m<M, then, m/M <1

Therefore, .

Vb= -(m/M) v

Vb< -v

This implies that the velocity of balloon is less than the velocity of man and if is also moving in opposite direction

So the man is moving upward, then the balloon is moving downward and it's velocity is less than the velocity of man,

The answer is C

Down with a speed less than v

An ice cube of mass 50.0 g can slide without friction up and down a 25.0 degree slope. The ice cube is pressed against a spring
lozanna [386]

Answer:

0.6 m

Explanation:

When a spring is compressed it stores potential energy. This energy is:

Ep = 1/2 * k * x^2

Being x the distance it compressed/stretched.

When the spring bounces the ice cube back it will transfer that energy to the cube, it will raise up the slope, reaching a high point where it will have a speed of zero and a potential energy equal to what the spring gave it.

The potential energy of the ice cube is:

Ep = m * g * h

This is vertical height and is related to the distance up the slope by:

sin(a) = h/d

h = sin(a) * d

Replacing:

Ep = m * g * sin(a) * d

Equating both potential energies:

1/2 * k * x^2 = m * g * sin(a) * d

d = (1/2 * k * x^2) / (m * g * sin(a))

d= (1/2 * 25 * 0.1^2) / (0.05 * 9.81 * sin(25)) = 0.6 m

How is the electrostatic force affected when the magnitude of a charge is doubled?
BaLLatris [955]
The magnitude of the electrostatic force between two charges is given by:
F=k_e  \frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}
where
ke is the Coulomb's constant
q1 and q2 are the two charges
r is the separation between the two charges

We can see that the magnitude of the force is directly proportional to the charges. This means that when one of the charges is doubled, the magnitude of the electrostatic force will double as well, so the correct answer is
A) <span>The magnitude of the electrostatic force doubles</span>

The wave that carrys the most energy are the waves that?
lesya [120]

"<em>The different types of radiation are defined by the the amount of </em><em>energy</em><em> found in the photons. Radio </em><em>waves</em><em> have photons with low energies, microwave photons have a little </em><em>more energy</em><em> than radio </em><em>waves</em><em>, infrared photons have still </em><em>more</em><em>, then visible, ultraviolet, X-rays, and, the </em><em>most</em><em> energetic of all, gamma-rays.</em>"
