The mass of a planet determines the acceleration due to gravity on it. This is according to Newton's Law of Gravitation, which basically states that the more mass a body has, the greater the force of attraction it exerts on other bodies with mass near it.
The gravitational force is:
F = GMm/r², where G is a constant, r is the distance between large mass M and small mass m.
Considering the fact that acceleration is force per unit mass, if we divide gravitational force by the small mass (to get force per unit mass), we see the dependence mathematically:
a = GM/r²
Y - yo = Vo*t - g * (t^2) / 2
Vo = - 9.0 m/s
t = 0.50 s
=> y - yo = -9.0 m/s * 0.5 s - 9.8 m/s^2 * (0.5s)^2 / 2 = - 4.5m - 1.225m = - 5.725 m.
Answer: option c) - 5.7
Answer:0.000002
Explanation: I Looked It Up lol
Answer:
Explanation:
The equation for Power is
P = Work/time to do work and the equation for work is
Work = FΔx
We first need to find the amount of work done, then we can find the power it took to do that work.
W = 2000(9.8)(28) so
W = 550,000 N*m
Now we fill that into the power equation:
gives us
P = 18000 Watts. But we need kW, so we divide by 1000 to get
P = 18 kW of power.
Answer:
Explanation:
According to Newton's law of Gravitation, the force
exerted between two bodies of masses
and
and separated by a distance
is equal to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance:
(1)
Where:
is the Gravitational Constant and its value is
is the mass of the Sun
is the mass of the Earth
is the distance between the Sun and the Earth
Substituting the values in (1):
(2)
Finally:
This is the gravitational force acting on the earth due to the sun
