Define upthrust simply (don't copy)​

Physics
1 answer:
EleoNora [17]2 years ago
3 0

Upthrust is the force that is pushing you up. Kinda to stop you from sinking right into the Earth. Upthrust is simply any force that is causing something to be pushed upwards. Kinda like the opposite of gravity, which is pulling you down =]

Hope this helps ❤️

Four pairs of objects have the masses as described below, along with the distances between
lord [1]

Answer:

<h2>Mass of 1 Kg and 2 Kg, 1 meters apart.</h2>

Explanation:

The gravitational force is defined as

F=G\frac{m_{1} m_{2} }{r^{2} }

By definition, the gravitational force depends directly on the product of the masses and indirectly on the distance between the masses, which means the further they are, the less gravitational force would be. And, the greater the masses, the greater the gravitational force.

Among the options, the pair that would have the greatest gravitational force is  Mass of 1 Kg and 2 Kg, with 1 meter between them.

Notice that the last choice includes the same masses but with a greater distance between them, that means it would be a weaker graviational force.

Therefore, the right answer is the second choice.

Maggie walks to a friends house which is exactly 1500 meters due South. It takes Maggie 45 minutes for the walk and Maggie has t
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

<em>Explanation below</em>

Explanation:

<u>Speed vs Velocity </u>

These are two similar physical concepts. They only differ in the fact that the velocity is vectorial, i.e. having magnitude and direction, and the speed is scalar, just the magnitude regardless of the direction. They are strongly related to the concepts of displacement and distance, which are the vectorial and scalar versions of the space traveled by a moving object. The velocity can be computed as

\displaystyle \vec v=\frac{\vec r}{t}

Where \vec r is the position vector and t is the time. The speed is

\displaystyle v=\frac{d}{t}

To compute \vec r, we only need to know the initial and final positions and subtract them. To compute d, we need to add all the distances traveled by the object, regardless of their directions.

Maggie walks to a friend's house, located 1500 meters from her place. The initial position is 0 and the final position is 1500 m. The displacement is

\vec r=1500\ m \text{ to the south}

and the velocity is

\displaystyle \vec v=\frac{1500}{45}=33.33\ m/s\text{ to the south}

Now, we know Maggie had to make three different turns of direction to finally get there. This means her distance is more than 1500 m. Let's say she walked 500 m in all the turns, then the distance is

d=1500+500=2000\ m

If she took the same time to reach her destiny, she would have to run faster, because her average speed is

\displaystyle v=\frac{2000}{45}=44.44\ m/s

Calculate the distance traveled by a projectile as a function of launch angle. Compare the distances for two projectiles launche
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

R = x_{max} = \frac{v^2\sin(2\theta)}{g}\\\frac{R_1}{R_2} = \frac{\sin(2\theta_1}{\sin(2\theta_2}

Explanation:

Using kinematics equations:

\Delta x = v_{0x}t\\\Delta y = -\frac{1}{2}gt^2+v_{0y}t

Use \Delta y = 0 due to condition of distance traveled.

Solving second equation for time, there are two solutions. t=0 and

t=\frac{2v_{0y}}{g}

Use the expression in the first equation to have

R = \frac{2v^2 \cos\theta\sin\theta}{g}

Using trigonometric identities, you have the answer of the distance.

By doing the ratio for two different angles, you have the second answer. Due to sine function properties, the distances can be the same to complementary angles. Example, for 20° and 70°, the distance is the same.

A cloud of interstellar gas is rotating. Because the gravitational force pulls the gas particles together, the cloud shrinks, an
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

Greater than

Explanation:

Here, angular momentum is conserved.

l_1\omega_1 =l_2\omega_2

When the cloud shrinks under the right conditions, a star may be formed.

Thus, Diameter of clouds are much higher than a star.

Moment of inertia of cloud is greater than the star's inertial.

so, angular velocity of the star would be greater than angular velocity of the rotating gas.
