Answer:

4.96×10¯¹⁰ N

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass 1 (M1) = 300 Kg

Mass 2 (M2) = 300 Kg

Separating distance (r) = 110 m

Gravitational constant (G) = 6.67×10¯¹¹ Nm²/Kg²

Gravitational force (F) =?

The gravitational force between the two goal posts can be obtained as follow:

F = GM1M2 / r²

F = 6.67×10¯¹¹ × 300 × 300 / 110²

F = 6.003×10¯⁶ / 12100

F = 4.96×10¯¹⁰ N

Therefore the gravitational force between the two goal posts is 4.96×10¯¹⁰ N

How do you do this problem?
kvasek [131]

Explanation:

First, find the velocity of the projectile needed to reach a height h when fired straight up.

Given:

Δy = h

v = 0

a = -g

Find: v₀

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

(0)² = v₀² + 2(-g)(h)

v₀ = √(2gh)

Now find the height reached if the projectile is launched at a 45° angle.

Given:

v₀ = √(2gh) sin 45° = √(2gh) / √2 = √(gh)

v = 0

a = -g

Find: Δy

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

(0)² = √(gh)² + 2(-g)Δy

2gΔy = gh

Δy = h/2

A ball is thrown horizontally. What is the ball's acceleration at its highest point
natka813 [3]
At the highest point of motion the ball comes to rest momentarily,but it is being pulled down due to the effect of gravity,so its net acceleration is downwards. So,just after that point,it starts falling downwards.

31. If you threw a baseball straight out at 45 m/s from a height of 1.5 meters (A) how long would it be in the air? B) How far o
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

A) t = 0.55 s

B) x = 24.8 m

Explanation:

A) We can find the time at which the ball will be in the air using the following equation:

y_{f} = y_{0} + v_{0y}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}    

Where:

y_{f} is the final height= 0  

y_{0} is the initial height= 1.5 m

v_{0y} is the component of the initial speed in the vertical direction = 0 m/s        

t: is the time =?      

g: is the gravity = 9.81 m/s²

0 = 1.5 m - \frac{1}{2}9.81 m/s^{2}t^{2}

By solving the above equation for t we have:

t = \sqrt{\frac{2*1.5 m}{9.81 m/s^{2}}} = 0.55 s  

Hence, the ball will stay 0.55 seconds in the air.

                             

B) We can find the distance traveled by the ball as follows:

x_{f} = x_{0} + v_{0x}t + \frac{1}{2}at^{2}

Where:  

a: is the acceleration in the horizontal direction = 0  

x_{f} is the final position =?  

x_{0} is the initial position = 0      

v_{0x} is the component of the initial speed in the horizontal direction = 45 m/s                                                                                            

x_{f} = x_{0} + v_{0x}t + \frac{1}{2}at^{2}

x_{f} = 0 + 45 m/s*0.55 s + 0 = 24.8 m

Therefore, the ball will travel 24.8 meters.

I hope it helps you!

What is the net force on charge placed at the center of square of length 1m? All charges have same magnitude of 2 micro coulomb.
Masja [62]

Answer:

Electric Field intensity is zero.

The reason for that is:

All charges are placed at equal distances from the center of the square and have same magnitude and sign. This means they will exert equal and opposite forces on the test charge at the center. Net force will become Zero.
