The Earth's Radius is 6.3710x106 m and mass is 5.9742x1024 kg. What is the acceleration due to gravity at Mount Everest (elevati

Answer is

9.773m/s^2

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Given,

h=8848m

The value of sea level is 9.08m/s^2. So, Let g′ be the acceleration due to the gravity on Mount Everest.

g′=g(1 − 2h/h)

=9.8(1 - 6400000/17696)

=9.8(1 − 0.00276)

9.8×0.99724

=9.773m/s^2

Thus, the acceleration due to gravity on the top of Mount Everest is =9.773m/s^2

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

hope this helps :)

Assume your mass is 60 kg. The acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . How much work against gravity do you do when you climb
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

W=1705.2 J

Explanation:

Given that

mass ,m= 60 kg

Acceleration due to gravity ,g= 9.8 m/s²

Height ,h= 2.9 m

As we know that work done by a force given as

W = F . d

F=force

d=Displacement

W=work done by force

Now by putting the values

F= m g (Acting downward  )

d= h  (Upward)

W= m g h    ( work done against the force)

W= 60 x 9.8 x 2.9 J

W=1705.2 J

Therefore the answer will be 1705.2 J.

Suddenly a worker picks up the bag of gravel. Use energy conservation to find the speed of the bucket after it has descended 2.3
fiasKO [112]

Explanation:

A worker picks up the bag of gravel. We need to find the speed of the bucket after it has descended 2.30 m from rest. It is case of conservation of energy. So,

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh\\\\v=\sqrt{2gh}

h = 2.3 m

v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 2.3} \\\\v=6.71\ m/s

So, the speed of the bucket after it has descended 2.30 m from rest is 6.71 m/s.

A baseball player friend of yours wants to determine his pitching speed. you have him stand on a ledge and throw the ball horizo
zhenek [66]

Answer:

The pitching speed of your friend is 33.20 m/s

Explanation:

<em>Lets explain how to solve the problem</em>

Your friend throw the ball horizontally that means the vertical initial

component of velocity is zero (u_{y}=0).

The ball is thrown from a height 4 meters above the ground.

The height h=u_{y}t+\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

<u><em>Remember:</em></u> the height is negative value because its below the point of

thrown (initial position)

h = -4 m , u_{y}=0 and g = -9.8 m/s²(downward)

<em>Substitute these values in the rule above</em>

⇒ 4=0-\frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^{2}

⇒ -4 = -4.9t² (multiply both sides by -1)

⇒ 4 = 4.9t² (divide both sides by 4.9)

⇒ 0.81633 = t² (take √ for both sides)

⇒ <em>t = 0.9035</em>

Then the time of the ball to land on the ground is 0.9035 seconds

The range of the ball on the ground is 30 m

The range R=u_{x}*t, where u_{x} is the horizontal

component of the initial velocity

R = 30 meters and t = 0.9035

⇒ 30=u_{x}(0.9035) (divide both sides by 0.9035)

⇒ u_{x}=33.20 m/s

<em>The pitching speed of your friend is 33.20 m/s </em>

What is another name for kidney stones?
Naddika [18.5K]

Another (slightly more technical) name for kidney stones is "renal calculus".

I know this because we have met many times, and we are old friends.
