If there is a gravitational force between all objects, why do we not feel or observe it?

We do not feel the gravitational forces from objects other than the Earth because they are weak.

Answer:

We do. It's just way too small compared to the force between the objects we're observing and the earth. It's like looking inside a room with an elephant and a grain of rice. The rice is there, it's just too small compared to the room and the elephant inside for you to notice it. Or, if you ever traveled on a plane, you can easily see the towns, or the roads, but not the single people walking the street.

A 2320 pound roller coaster starts from rest and is launched such that it creates a 110 ft high hill with a speed of 65 mph. The

Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer: E = 941738.537J

Explanation:

to begin,

given that the mass = 2320 pound = 1052.334 kg

Δh = 110 ft = 33.528 m

given that distance (d) = 1283 ft = 391.058 m

also the speed (v) is 65 mph = 29.058 m/s

force (F) = 87 pounds = 386.995 N

from our knowledge in work energy theory;

E = Fd + 1/2mv² + mgh

E = (386.995 × 391.058) + (1/2×1052.334×29.058²) + (1052.334×9.81×33.528)

E = 151337.491 + 444278.2 + 346122.84

E = 941738.537J

i hope this helps, cheers.

Amazon rectangular bar of low carbon steel A-36 is exposed to an axial strees of 150 MPa. What is the original length of the bar

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

1.8m

Explanation:

Let the Elastics of the steel ASTM-36 $E = 200000 MPa$

The strain of the bar when subjected to 150 MPa is

$\epsilon = \frac{\sigma}{E} = \frac{150}{200000} = 0.00075$

Therefore, if the bar elongates by 1.35 mm, then the original length L would be:

$\epsilon = \frac{\Delta L}{L}$

$L = \frac{\Delta L}{\epsilon} = \frac{1.35}{0.00075} = 1800 mm$ or 1.8m

An apple is whirled round in a horizontal circle on the end of a string which is tied to the stalk. It is whirled faster and fas

jek_recluse [69]

when the apple moves in a horizontal circle, the tension force in the string provides the necessary centripetal force to move in circle. the tension in the string is given as

T=mv²/r

where T = tension force in the string , m = mass of the apple

v = speed of apple , r = radius of circle.

clearly , tension force depends on the square of the speed. hence greater the speed, greater will be the tension force.

at some point , the speed becomes large enough that it makes the tension force in the string becomes greater than the tensile strength of the string. at that point , the string breaks

1. James drives 400 km in 5 hours to his grandmothers. What are the units for speed going to be?

Airida [17]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

1. Speed is calculated as the ratio of distance and time. Hence, Jame's speed can be calculated as:

400/5 km/hr = 80 km/hr

The unit for the speed would be km/hr. This can also be converted to m/s:

80 km = 80,000 m

1 hr = 3,600 s

80 km/hr = 80,000/3600 m/s = 22.22 m/s

2. Since James drove 400 km in 5 hours, the distance he drove is 400 km.

3. The time it took for James to get there is 5 hours.

An object, with a final position of x = 100.1 meters, initially started at x = -12.13 meters. What was its displacement? (Unit =

nikklg [1K]

Answer:

112.23 m

Explanation:

Displacement is the final position minus the initial position.

Δx = x − x₀

Δx = 100.1 m − (-12.13 m)

Δx = 112.23 m
