Answer:
Explanation:
If a small piece of Styrofoam packing material is dropped from a height of 1.90 m above the ground and reaches a terminal speed after falling 0.400m, the Change in distance will be 1.90m - 0.400 = 1.50m
If it takes 5.4secs fo r the Styrofoam to reach the ground, the terminal velocity will be expressed as;
Vt = change in distance/time
Vt = 1.5m/5.4s
Vt = 0.28m/s
Note that the Styrofoam reaches its final velocity when the acceleration is zero.
To get the constant value B from the equation a = g-Bv
a = 0m/s²
g = 9.81m/s²
v = 0.28m/s
Substituting the parameters into the formula.
0 = 9.81-0.28B
-9.81 = -0.28B
Divide both sides by -0.28
B = -9.81/-0.28
B = 35.04
b) at t = 0sec, the initial terminal velocity is also zero.
Substituting v = 0 into the equation to get the acceleration.
a = g-Bv
a = g-B(0)
a = g
Hence the acceleration at t =0s is equal to the acceleration due to gravity which is 9.81m/s²
c) Given speed v = 0.150m/s
g = 9.81m/s²
B = 35.04
Substituting the given data into the equation a = g-Bv
a = 9.81-35.04(0.15)
a = 9.81 - 5.26
a = 4.55m/s²

Answer:
They are <em>directly proportional</em> to gravitational force.
Explanation:
Newton's Law of Gravity states that 
. The two "m" values are the masses of the objects, <em>r</em> is the distance between their centers, and G is the gravitational constant. Notice how the "m" values are in the fraction's numerator (i.e., on top)? That means <em>increasing</em> even one of the objects' masses will <em>increase</em> the gravitational force. This is known as a <em>direct relationship</em>.
Of course, you could always use the wonderful table provided to solve this! You don't believe what I wrote above? Take on of the two objects' masses, divide the gravitational force by that number, and see what happens. Multiply the two masses together, and see what happens. Prove it for yourself!
I hope this increases your understanding of this concept. Have yourself a wondrous day, 'kay?
