The answer is c. I hope it’s clear
Answer:
Explanation:
For acceleration due to gravity g , the expression is
g = GM / R² , where G is gravitational constant M is mass of the earth and R is radius of the earth .
At height h , let the value of it becomes g / 4 , so
g / 4 = GM / ( R + h )²
dividing
4 = [( R+ h)² / R² ]
2 = (R + h) / R
2 = 1 + h / R
h / R = 1
h = R
So at height equal to radius of the earth , acceleration due to gravity becomes 1 /4 of value on the surface of the earth .
I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. The function of the pulley in this situation is to change the direction of the input force. <span> The </span>pulley<span> simply turns a force in one direction into a force in another direction. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>
We use the equations of motion,
(A)
(B)
Here, v is final velocity of the body, u is initial velocity of the body, a is the acceleration of the body, t is the time taken in the motion and s is distance traveled by the body.
Given
,
and
.
So, from equation (A)

Now from the equation (B),

Thus, the distance over which the puck accelerates is 0.8 m.
