The value of g is greater at the poles than at the equator why

The reason is because the Earth is not a perfect sphere. The distance from the poles to the centre of the Earth is smaller and the gravity is slightly greater.
The distance from the equator to the centre is slightly bigger so gravity is slightly smaller.

Answer:

because the gravitational pull is maximum at the poles and decreases as it comes down toward the equator.

When two sticks are laid end-to-end they cover a length of 8.32 feet. One stick is 2.93 ft longer than the other. What is the le

77julia77 [94]

To solve this problem we will start by defining the length of the shortest stick as 'x'. And the magnitude of the longest stick, according to the statement as

$x+2.93$

Both cover a magnitude of 8.32 ft, therefore

$x +(x+2.97) = 8.32$

Now solving for x we have,

$x + (x + 2.93) = 8.32$

$2x + 2.93 = 8.32$

$2x = 8.32 - 2.93$

$x = \frac{ 8.32 - 2.93}{2}$

$x = 2.695 ft$

Therefore the shorter stick is 2.695ft long.

Bryce, a mouse lover, keeps his four pet mice in a roomy cage, where they spend much of their spare time–when they\'re not sleep

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

mice total momentum (-0.000250, 0.00639) Kg m

Explanation:

To calculate the moment of the mice we must multiply their mass by their velocities, remember that the moment is a vector quantity, so we use the components of velocity

mouse 1

m1 = 0.0225 Kg

V1 = (0.869, -0.283) m / s

Px = m Vx

Px1 = 0.0225 0.869

Px1 = 0.01955 Kg m

Py = m Vy

Py1 = 0.0225 (-0.283)

Py1 = -0.006368 Kg m

P1 = (0.0196, -0.00637) Kg m

Mouse 2

m2 = 0.0223 Kg

Px2 = 0.0223 (-0.883) = -0.0196 Kg m

Py2 = 0.0223 (-0.253) = -0.00564 Kg m

P2 = (-0.0196, -0.00564) Kg m

Mouse 3

m3 = 0.0197

Px3 = 0.0197 0.345 = 0.00680 Kg m

Py3 = 0.0197 0.803 = 0.0158 Kg m

P3 = (0.00680, 0.0158) Kg m

Mouse4

m4 = 0.0127 Kg

Px4 = 0.0127 (-0.555) = -0.00705 Kg m

Py4 = 0.0127 0.205 = 0.00260 Kg m

P4 = (-0.00705, 0.00260) Kg m

To find the total momentum we must add each component of the individual moments

Px = Px1 + Px2 + Px3 + Px4

Py = py1 + Py2 + Py3 + Py4

Px = 0.0196 -0.0196 +0.00680 -0.00705

Px = -0,000250 Kg m

Py = -0.00637 -0.00564 +0.0158 +0.00260

Py = 0.00639 Kg m

P = (-0.000250, 0.00639) Kg m
