Answer: Gravity is the force that keeps planets in orbit around the Sun. Gravity alone holds us to Earth's surface.

Planets have measurable properties, such as size, mass, density, and composition. A planet's size and mass determines its gravitational pull.

A planet's mass and size determines how strong its gravitational pull is.

Models can help us experiment with the motions of objects in space, which are determined by the gravitational pull between them.

Does gravity exist between a pencil on a coffee mug

DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

Yes it does

Explanation:

Gravity is pushing down on the pencil but the coffee mug is also pushing the pencil up with the same amount of force so they both don't move

a baseball is pitched with a speed of 35.0m/s. how long does it take the ball to travel 18.4 m from the pitchers mound to home p

Vlad [161]

Given the speed and the distance, to find time you can use the formula speed is equal to distance over time. From there you can manipulate the equation for time to equal the distance divided by speed. Time is equal to 18.4 meters divided by 35m/s which equals 0.526 seconds.

A 560-g squirrel with a surface area of 930cm2 falls from a 5.0-m tree to the ground. Estimate its terminal velocity. (Use a dra

bija089 [108]

Explanation:

Terminal velocity is given by:

$v_t=\sqrt{\frac{2mg}{\rho C_dA}}$

Here, m is the mass of the falling object, g is the gravitational acceleration, $C_d$ is the drag coefficient, $\rho$ is the fluid density through which the object is falling, and A is the projected area of the object. in this case the projected area is given by:

$A=\frac{A_s}{2}=\frac{930cm^2}{2}=465cm^2\\465cm^2*\frac{1m^2}{10^4cm^2}=0.0465m^2\\560g*\frac{1kg}{10^3g}=0.56kg$

Recall that drag coefficient for a horizontal skydiver is equal to 1 and air density is $1.28\frac{kg}{m^3}$ .

$v_t=\sqrt{\frac{2(0.56kg)(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})}{(1.28\frac{kg}{m^3}(1)(0.0465m^2)}}\\v_t=13.58\frac{m}{s}$

Without drag contribution the motion of the person is an uniformly accelerated motion, thus:

$v_f^2=v_o^2+2gh\\v_f=\sqrt{2gh}\\v_f=\sqrt{2(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})(5m)}\\v_f=9.9\frac{m}{s}$
