A student asks the following question:

Physics
1 answer:
MariettaO [177]3 years ago
8 0

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.

A stone is thrown straight up from the edge of a roof, 925 feet above the ground, at a speed of 20 feet per second. Remembering
Black_prince [1.1K]
<h2>Answer: 469 feet</h2>

Explanation:

This problem is a good example of Vertical motion, where the main equation for this situation is:

y=y_{o}+V_{o}t-\frac{1}{2}gt^{2} (1)

Where:

y is the height of the stone at 6s (the value we want to find)

y_{o}=925ft is the initial height of the stone

V_{o}=20ft/s is the initial velocity of the stone

t=6s is the time  at which we need to find the height

g=32ft/s^{2} is the acceleration due to gravity

Having this clear, let's find y from (1):

y=925ft+(20ft/s)(6s)-\frac{1}{2}(32ft/s^{2})(6s)^{2} (2)

Finally:

y=469ft This is the height of the stone at t=6s

Complete the statement below with all that apply.

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, and velocity is the change in displacement over the change in time so the answer would be A.

What length of tube would be required to produce a second tone under the same experimental conditions? Explain your answer.
Alisiya [41]

There is an indirect relationship between length and frequency. The longer the length the pipe has, the higher frequency it is. The shorter the length the pipe has, the lower frequency it is.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The four properties of the string that affect its frequency are length, diameter, tension, and density. These properties are described below: When the length of a string is changed, it will vibrate with a different frequency. Shorter strings have higher frequency and therefore higher pitch.

The longer the tube is the lower the pitch of the note that it can emit. When a tube is heated it expands and so is longer! As the gas in the tube gets warmer the molecules move faster, that means they can carry the vibrations of the sound wave more rapidly and so the pitch goes up.
