How does force and acceleration work together to create motion?

Physics
1 answer:
marta [7]3 years ago

When a force acts (pushes or pulls) on an object, it changes the object's speed or direction (in other words, makes it accelerate). The bigger the force, the more the object accelerates. When a force acts on an object, there's an equal force (called a reaction) acting in the opposite direction.

Let r denote the distance between the center of the earth and the center of the moon. What is the magnitude of the acceleration
stepan [7]

Answer:

The magnitude of the acceleration ae of the earth due to the gravitational pull of the moon is \mathbf{3.3187\times10^{-5}}\frac{m}{s^{2}}

Explanation:

By Newton's gravitational law, the magnitude of the gravitational force between two objects is:

F=G\frac{Mm}{r^{2}}(1)

With G the gravitational constant, M the mass of earth, m the mass of the moon and r the distance between the moon and the earth, a quick search on physics books or internet websites give us the values:

M=5.972\times10^{24}\,kg

m=7.34767309\times10^{22}\,kg

r=384400\,km

G=6.674\times10^{-11}\,\frac{N\,m^{3}}{kg^{2}}

Using those values on (1)

F=(6.674\times10^{-11})*\frac{(5.972\times10^{24})(7.34767309\times10^{22})}{(384400\times10^{3})^{2}}

F\approx1.98193\times10^{20}N

Now, by Newton's second Law we can find the acceleration of earth ae due moon's pull:

F=M*ae\Longrightarrow ae=\frac{F}{M}=\frac{1.98193\times10^{20}}{5.972\times10^{24}}\approx\mathbf{3.3187\times10^{-5}}

Why do you lurch forward in a bus that suddenly slows? why do you lurch backward when it picks up speed? what law applies here?
AveGali [126]
The law applied here is Newton's first law, also known as, law of inertia.
This law states that: A body will retain its state of rest or motion unless acted upon by an external force.

If you are moving and the bus suddenly stops, your body will lurch forward trying to retain its state of motion until it comes to rest and changes its state by the external force acted on it.

If you are at rest and the bus suddenly moves, your body will lurch backwards trying to retain its state of rest and opposing the force of motion until it is forced to change its state by this force.

Explain the Big Bang and how it started
AlexFokin [52]

The big bang is how astronomers explain the way the universe began. It is the idea that the universe began as just a single point, then expanded and stretched to grow as large as it is right now (and it could still be stretching).
