Answer:

acceleration due to gravity: -9.8 m/s^2

Fg=mass of object*(-9.8)

Explanation:

This is a pretty vague question, but I'll answer as best I can.

All matter has gravity. YOU have gravity, although your gravitational pull is small. So, the force of attraction between the Earth and an object on Earth is modeled as

Force of gravity=(Gravitational constant*mass of object 1*mass of object 2)/distance between objects squared

Note that distance between an object on Earth and Earth is the radius of Earth (distance to Earth's core/center of mass)

A rock has a specific gravity of 2.32 and a volume of 8.64 in3 how much does it weigh

lianna [129]

Answer: 3.21 N

$Specific\hspace{1mm} gravity = \frac {Density\hspace{1mm}of\hspace{1mm}substance}{Density\hspace{1mm} of \hspace{1mm}water}$

$\Rightarrow Density \hspace{1mm}of\hspace{1mm}substance= 2.32\times 1000\hspace{1mm} kg/m^3 = 2320\hspace{1mm}kg/m^3\\ Mass =Density\times volume\\ \Rightarrow 2320 \hspace{1mm} kg/m^3\times 8.64 \hspace{1mm}in^3\times \frac {1.64\times10^{-5} m^3}{1\hspace{1mm}in^3}=0.328 kg$

For weight, we will multiply by $g=9.8 m/s^{-2}$

$weight= 0.328\times9.8=3.21\hspace{1mm}N$

Hence, the rock would weigh 3.21 N.

Which of the following statements best explains why a book resting on a table is in equilibrium?

timofeeve [1]

I'm pretty sure the answer is d.The weight of the book and the table's upward force on the book are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction.

Christina drives his moped 7 kilometers North. She stops for lunch and then drives 5 kilometers East. What distance did she cove

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

She covers the distance is 12 km.

The magnitude of displacement is 8.6 km.

The direction of her displacement is north east.

Explanation:

Given that,

Christina drives his moped 7 kilometers North and stop for lunch and then drive 5 km east.

We need to calculate the total distance

Using formula of distance

$d=d_{1}+d_{2}$

Put the value into the formula

$d=7+5$

$d=12\ km$

We need to calculate the magnitude of displacement

Using formula of displacement

$D=xi+yj$

$D=5i+7j$

$D=\sqrt{5^2+7^2}$

$D= 8.6\ km$

The direction of her displacement is north east.

Hence, She covers the distance is 12 km.

The magnitude of displacement is 8.6 km.

The direction of her displacement is north east.

A car travels a distance of 320 km in 4 hours. What is your average speed in meters per second?

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

22.2 m/s

Explanation:

First, we need to convert km to m by multiplying by 1000. This means that the car traveled 320 000 meters.

Next, we convert hours to minutes by multiplying by 3600 (the number of seconds in an hour). This means that overall, the car traveled 320 000 m in 14 400 seconds.

The average speed can be found by using the equation $\frac{distance}{time}$ . After substitution, this gives the fraction $\frac{320 000}{14 400}$ , which reduces to 22 $\frac{2}{9}$ m/s, or about 22.2 m/s.
