Physics

Answer:

  Natalie says that all things with mass have a gravitational field, but the force is very weak and cannot be perceived around small objects.

Explanation:

The force due to gravity is proportional to the mass of the object and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between objects. The Earth is so massive that the force due to its gravity is much greater than the force between objects on the counter.

If there were no friction, the objects might move toward each other, depending on what other masses were near them tending to cause them to move in other directions.

Natalie's explanation is about the best.

<em>Additional comment</em>

The universal gravitational constant was determined by Henry Cavendish in the late 18th century using lead balls weighing 1.6 pounds and 348 pounds. His experiment was enclosed in a large wooden box to minimize outside effects. While these masses are somewhat greater than those of a glue bottle and stapler, the experiment shows the force of gravity between "small" objects <em>can</em> be measured.

On the Newtonian theory of gravity, gravitation affects anything with mass. Assuming that none of the answer choices is the only thing that exists in the universe, all of the answer choices are subject to the law of universal gravitation (hence “universal”).

Satellites, water, frogs, and stars all have mass as they are all composed of matter. Thus, all four answer choices should be circled.

A grape is thrown straight up in the air. If it was thrown at 2 m/s, how high will it go in the air?
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

Answer: <u>Height</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>0</u><u>.</u><u>2</u><u>0</u><u>4</u><u> </u><u>m</u>

Explanation:

At the highest point, it is called the maximum height.

• From third newton's equation of motion:

{ \rm{ {v}^{2}  =  {u}^{2}  + 2gs}}

• At maximum height, v is zero

• u is initial speed

• g is -9.8 m/s²

• s is the height

{ \rm{0 {}^{2}  =  {2}^{2}   -  (2 \times 9.8 \times s)}} \\  \\ { \rm{4 = 19.6s}} \\  \\ { \rm{s = 0.204 \: m}}
