What is the definition of gravity in simple terms?

Physics
1 answer:
Tema [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Gravity, also called gravitation, in mechanics, the universal force of attraction acting between all matter. ... On Earth all bodies have a weight, or downward force of gravity, proportional to their mass, which Earth's mass exerts on them. Gravity is measured by the acceleration that it gives to freely falling objects

1 : A force of attraction that tends to draw particles or bodies together.

2 : The attraction of bodies by the force of gravity toward the center of the earth.

3 : Great seriousness.

If a teacher had 48 red pens and the ratio of red to blue pens she owns is 6:1, she will have a total of 56 pens

Let the number of red pens be R and the number of blue pens be B.

R = 48

R / B = 6 / 1

48 / B = 6 / 1

B = 48 / 6

B = 8

Total number of pens = Number of red pens + Number of blue pens

Total number of pens = R + B

Total number of pens = 48 + 8

Total number of pens = 56 pens

Therefore, she has a total of 56 pens

Water of density 1000 kg/m3 falls without splashing at a rate of 0.373 L/s from a height of 40.5 m into a 0.64 kg bucket on a sc
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

       F_scale = 20.18 N

Explanation:

The scale reading corresponds to two factors, the first the weight of the water in the container and the second the force of the liquid that is falling at the moment of reading.

* Let's find the amount of liquid in the container for a time of t = 2.93 s

Let's use a direct proportion rule. If 0.373 l falls in one second at t = 2.93 s, how many liters are there

        V_{water} = 2.93 s (0.373 l / 1s) = 1.09 l

        V_{water} = 1.09 10⁻³ m³

the amount of water is

       ρ = m / V

       m = ρ V

       m = 1000 1.09 10⁻³

       m = 1.09 kg

so the weight of the liquid in the container for this time is

       W = mg

       W = 1.09 9.8

       W = 10.68 N

* Let's look for the force of the falling jet

Let's use Bernoulli's equation, where the subscript 1 is for the container and the subscript 2 is for the water at a height h

        P₁ + 1/2 ρ g v₁² + ρ g y₁ = P₂ + 1/2  ρ g v₂² + ρ g y₂

In this case, the water falls freely, so the external pressure is atmospheric.

         P₂ = P_{atm}

since they indicate that the water falls, we assume that its initial velocity is zero v₂ = 0

let's use kinematics to find the speed of a drop when it reaches the container y = 0

         v² = v₀² - 2 g (y-y₀)

         v = \sqrt{0 -2 g ( 0-y_o)}

let's calculate

         v = √(2 9.8 40.5)

         v = 28.17 m / s

this is the speed in the container v₁ = 28.17 m / s

the height from where it falls is y₂ = 40.5 and reaches the container y₁ = 0

we substitute in Bernoulli's equation

         P₁ +1/2 ρ g v₁² + 0 = P_{atm} + 0 + ρ g y₂

         P₁ + ½ ρ g v₁² = P_{atm} + ρ g y₂

         P₁ = P_{atm} + ρ g y₂ - ½ ρ g v₁²

         P₁ = 1 10⁵ + 1000 9.8 40.5 - ½ 1000 28.17²

         P₁ = 1 10⁵ + 3.97 10⁵ - 3.69 10⁵

         P₁ = 1.28 10⁵ Pa

The definition of Pressure is

         P = F / A

         F = P A

We must suppose a time to carry out the reading suppose an average time of the modern equipment t = 0.1 s, in this time how much is now arriving

          m₂ = 0.373 0.2 = 0.0746 l = 0.0746 10⁻³ m³

the volume is V = A l

if the length of l = 1 m

A = 0.0746 10⁻³ m³ = 7.45 10⁻⁵ m²

the force of this jet is

            F = P A

            F = 1.28 10⁵  7.46 10⁻⁵

            F = 9.5 N

with these data let's use the equilibrium equation

           F_ scale -W - F = 0

           F_scale = W + F

           F_scale = 10.682 + 9.5

           F_scale = 20.18 N

The magnitude of the angular momentum of the two-satellite system is best represented by
zloy xaker [14]

The magnitude of the angular momentum of the two-satellite system is best represented as, L=m₁v₁r₁-m₂v₂r₂.

<h3>What is angular momentum.?</h3>

The rotational analog of linear momentum is angular momentum also known as moment of momentum or rotational momentum.

It is significant in physics because it is a conserved quantity. the total angular momentum of a closed system remains constant. Both the direction and magnitude of angular momentum are conserved.

The magnitude of the angular momentum of the two-satellite system is best represented as;

L=∑mvr

L=m₁v₁r₁-m₂v₂r₂

Hence, the magnitude of the angular momentum of the two-satellite system is best represented as, L=m₁v₁r₁-m₂v₂r₂.

To learn more about the angular momentum, refer to the link;
