When an apple falls towards the earth,the earth moves up to meet the apple. Is this true?If yes, why is the earth's motion not n

oticeable?

Answer:

because the mass of the apple is very less compared to the mass of earth. Due to less mass the apple cannot produce noticable acceleration in the earth but the earth which has more mass produces noticable acceleration in the apple. thus we can see apple falling on towards the earth but we cannot see earth moving towards the apple.

AVprozaik [17]
<h2>Answer:</h2><h2>The acceleration of the meteoroid due to the gravitational force exerted by the planet = 12.12 m/s^{2}</h2>

Explanation:

A meteoroid is in a circular orbit 600 km above the surface of a distant planet.

Mass of the planet = mass of earth = 5.972 x 10^{24} Kg

Radius of the earth = 90% of earth radius = 90% 6370 = 5733 km

The acceleration of the meteoroid due to the gravitational force exerted by the planet = ?

By formula, g = \frac{GM}{r^{2} }

where g is the acceleration due to the gravity

G is the universal gravitational constant = 6.67 x 10^{-11} m^{3} kg^{-1} s^{-2}

M is the mass of the planet

r is the radius of the planet

Substituting the values, we get

g =  \frac{(6.67 * 10^{-11}) (5.972 * 10^{24})  }{5733^{2} }

g = 12.12 m/s^{2}

The acceleration of the meteoroid due to the gravitational force exerted by the planet = 12.12 m/s^{2}

the maximum range of a projectile is 2÷√3 times its actual range what is the angle of the projection for the actual range​
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

The actual angle is 30°

Explanation:

<h2>Equation of projectile:</h2><h2>y axis:</h2>

v_y(t)=vo*sin(A)-g*t

the velocity is Zero when the projectile reach in the maximum altitude:

0=vo-gt\\t=\frac{vo}{g}

When the time is vo/g the projectile are in the middle of the range.

<h2>x axis:</h2>

d_x(t)=vo*cos(A)*t\\

R=Range

R=d_x(t=2*\frac{vo}{g})

R=vo*cos(A)*2\frac{vo}{g} \\\\R=\frac{(vo)^{2}*2* sin(A)cos(A)}{g} \\\\R=\frac{(vo)^{2} sin(2A)}{g}

**sin(2A)=2sin(A)cos(A)

<h2>The maximum range occurs when A=45°(because sin(90°)=1)</h2><h2>The actual range R'=(2/√3)R:</h2>

Let B the actual angle of projectile

\frac{vo^{2} }{g} =(\frac{2}{\sqrt{3} }) \frac{vo^{2} *sin(2B)}{g}\\\\1= \frac{2 }{\sqrt{3}} *sin(2B)\\\\sin(2B)=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\\\\

2B=60°

B=30°

Using the results of Question 1 that would apply if the collision were inelastic, compute (using Excel in the yellow highlighted
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

The fractional kinetic energy will be lost if the collision is inelastic. In inelastic collision, the kinetic energy is converted into other forms of energy.

The lost energy became heat and sound energy.

Explanation:

During inelastic collision, the kinetic energy of a moving object does not conserve. It changes into another form of energy such as sound energy and heat energy etc.

For example, when a moving car hit another car or wall etc, the kinetic energy is converted into sound and heat energy. This type of collision is inelastic collision.
