Answer:

Centre of mass is the point at which the distribution of mass is equal in all directions, and does not depend on gravitational field. Centre of gravity is the point at which the distribution of weight is equal in all directions, and does depend on gravitational field.

Answer:

Centre of mass is the point at which the distribution of mass is equal in all directions, and does not depend on gravitational field.

Centre of gravity is the point at which the distribution of weight is equal in all directions, and does depend on gravitational field.

hope this helps you ☺️☺️

A person pushes horizontally with a force of 220. N on a 61.0 kg crate to move it across a level floor. The coefficient of kinet
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

(a) 161.57 N

(b) 0.958 m/s^2

Explanation:

Force applied, F = 220 N

mass of crate, m = 61 kg

μ = 0.27

(a) The magnitude of the frictional force,

f = μ N

where, N is the normal reaction

N = m x g = 61 x 9.81 = 598.41 N

So, the frictional force, f = 0.27 x 598.41

f = 161.57 N

(b) Let a be the acceleration of the crate.

Fnet = F - f = 220 - 161.57

Fnet = 58.43 N

According to newton's second law

Fnet = mass x acceleration

58.43 = 61 x a

a = 0.958 m/s^2

Thus, the acceleration of the crate is 0.958 m/s^2.

A 100-kg tackler moving at a speed of 2.6 m/s meets head-on (and holds on to) an 92-kg halfback moving at a speed of 5.0 m/s. Pa
DIA [1.3K]

Given that,

Mass of trackler, m₁ = 100 kg

Speed of trackler, u₁ = 2.6 m/s

Mass of halfback, m₂ = 92 kg

Speed of halfback, u₂ = -5 m/s (direction is opposite)

To find,

Mutual speed immediately after the collision.

Solution,

The momentum of the system remains conserved in this case. Let v is the mutual speed after the collision. Using conservation of momentum as :

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=(m_1+m_2)V\\\\V=\dfrac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2}{(m_1+m_2)}\\\\V=\dfrac{100\times 2.6+92\times (-5)}{(100+92)}\\\\V=-1.04\ m/s

So, the mutual speed immediately after the collision is 1.04 m/s but in opposite direction.

 a Without the atmosphere, average temperature on Earth would be freezing! Below zero to be exact!

b The atmosphere protects us and animals from dangerous radiation from the Sun. Ultraviolet radiation is basically invisible rays of energy created by the sun.

cAlso, the atmosphere provides oxygen for humans and animals to breathe and C02 (Carbon dioxide) for plants. 

4 warmth 

5 yes it is The water on our Earth today is the same water that’s been here for nearly 5 billion years. Only a tiny bit of it has escaped out into space. As far as we know, new water hasn’t formed either.

That means there’s a very high chance the water in your glass is what thirsty dinosaurs were gulping about 65 million years ago.
