if you dig a hole through the earth, from one hemisphere to the other, and drop a tennis ball into it, would it get stuck at the

center, since thats where gravity's at, or would it pop up out the other side??

Answer:

Depending on which hemisphere it is, like western to eastern, It would most likely get stuck at the center. You would also have to put more things into thought like acceleration, velocity, and speed.

BUT since the question asked "would it pop out the other side?", I'm assuming it's talking about northern to southern hemisphere. so in that case it would pop out the other side since gravity makes things go downwards.

Answer:

We drop a tennis ball into the hole. The stone is pulled down towards the center of the earth. It falls all the way to the middle of the earth once it reaches the middle, theres no more pull of gravity. ... It would go up a ways, then (due to the pull of gravity) fall back in the other direction, back towards the center

The force diagram shown here describes the forces that external objects (the surface andEarth) exert on a woman (in this scenari
sveticcg [70]

The three different motions are;

  • The upward motion of the woman is constant
  • The downward motion of the woman is also constant
  • The horizontal motion of the woman is zero.

<h3>What is force diagram?</h3>

Force diagram is a pictorial or graphical illustration of different forces acting on object.

In this given question, there two forces acting on the woman as depicted in the force diagram.

  • The first force is surface force (Fs)
  • The second force is force of Earth (FE)

In the given force diagram, the woman is in equilibrium, this implies that the surface force and the Earth force are equal.

The three different types of motion of the woman that are consistent with the force diagram include the following;

  • The upward motion of the woman is constant
  • The downward motion of the woman is also constant
  • The horizontal motion of the woman is zero since there is no horizontal force on the woman.

2. Three super strong teenagers pull a heavy crate across the floor. Dion pulls with a force of 18.5 N towards 0°. Shirley pulls
kogti [31]

Answer:

A) The resultant force is 43.4 [N]

B) The movement of the heavy crate is going to the right and in the negative direction on the y-axis

Explanation:

We need to make a sketch of the different forces acting on the heavy crate.

In the attached image we can see the forces and the sum of the vector with their respective angles.

Forces in the X-axis

Fdionx=18.5N\\\\Fshix=16.5*cos(30)=14.29N\\Fjoanx=19.5*cos(60)=9.75N\\\\Forcex= 18.5 + 14.29 + 9.75 = 42.54 N

Forces in the y-axis

FDiony=0[N]\\Fshirley= 16.5*sin(30)=8.25[N]\\Fjoany=19.5*sin(60)=16.88 [N]\\\\Forcesy=0+8.25-16.88= -8.63[N]

Using the Pythagorean theorem

Tforce=\sqrt{(42.54)^{2} +(8.63)^{2} } \\\\Tforce= 43.4N

The movement of the heavy crate is going to the right and in the negative direction on the y-axis, this can be easily seen in the graphical sum of vectors.

Which types of numbers does scientific notation best describe?
Travka [436]
The correct answer is
<span>c) very small and very large

Let's see this with a few examples:
1) if we have a very small number, such as
</span>0.0000000001
<span>we see that we can write it easily by using the scientific notation:
</span>1\cdot 10^{-10}
<span>2) Similarly, if we have a very large number:
</span>10000000000
<span>we see that we can write it easily by using again the scientific notation:
</span>1 \cdot 10^{10}<span>
</span>
