Hi there!

We can use the equation for gravitational force:
F_g = \frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}

Fg = force due to gravity (N)

m1, m2 = masses of objects (kg)

r = distance between the center of mass of the objects (m)

G = gravitational constant

1.

Using the equation:
F'_g = \frac{G(3m_1)(3m_2)}{r^2} = 9F_g

The force would be <u>9 times larger. </u>

2. (Repeat?)

3.

The square of distance is inversely related, so:
F'g= \frac{Gm_1m_2}{(\frac{2}{3}r)^2} = \frac{Gm_1m_2}{\frac{4}{9}r^2} = \frac{9}{4}F_g

The force is <u>9/4ths times larger.</u>

4.

Combining:
F'_g = \frac{G(2m_1)(2m_2)}{(3r)^2} = \frac{4Gm_1m_2}{9r^2} = \frac{4}{9}F_g

The force is <u>9/4ths times larger.</u>

<u></u>

5.

F'g = \frac{G(2m_1)m_2}{(4r)^2} = \frac{2Gm_1m_2}{16r^2} = \frac{1}{8}F_g

The force is <u>1/8th the original.</u>

6.

Equation for gravitational field:
g = \frac{Gm_e}{r_e^2}

g = acceleration due to gravity (m/s²)

G = gravitational constant

me = mass of earth (kg)
re = radius of earth (m)

With the following transformations:
g' = \frac{G(2m_e)}{(\frac{1}{3}r)^2} = \frac{2Gm_e}{\frac{1}{9}r^2} = 18g

The acceleration due to gravity is <u>18 times as large.</u>

A 20.0 kg crate sits at rest at the bottom of a 15.0-m-long ramp that is inclined at 34.0° above horizontal. A constant horizont
ankoles [38]

Answer:

987 joules, 3.01s

Explanation:

(A)

from the attached diagram

net force, Fnet, pulling the crate up the ramp is given by

Fnet = FcosФ - WsinФ - Fr

where FcosФ is the component of horizontal force 290N resolved parallel to the plane

WsinФ = mgsinФ = component of the weight of the crate resolved parallel to the plane

Fr = constant opposing frictional force

Fnet = 290cos34⁰ - 20 × 9.8 × sin34° - 65

Fnet = 240.421 - 109.602 - 65

Fnet = 65.82N

Work done on the crate up the ramp, W, is given by

W = Fnet × d (distance up the plane)

W = 65.819 × 15

W = 987.285 joules

W = 987 joules (to 3 significant Figures)

(B)

to calculate the time of travel up the ramp

we use the equation of motion

s = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^{2}

where s = distance up the plane, 15m

u = Initial velocity of the crate, which is 0 for a body that is initially at rest

a = acceleration up the plane, given by

a = \frac{Fnet}{m}

where m = mass of the crate, 20 kg

now, a = \frac{65.819}{20} \\a = 3.291\frac{m^{2} }{s}

from, s = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^{2}

15 = 0*t + \frac{1}{2}* 3.291 * t^{2}

15 = 0 + 1.645t^{2}

15 = 1.645t^{2}

t = \sqrt{\frac{15}{1.645} }

t = 3.019

t = 3.01s (to 3 sig fig)

Newton's second law of motion can also be described as...
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer


B. F=ma



Explanation

The Newton's laws of motion tries to explain the how bodies behave and the energy changes when theys are in motion. For the 3 of them to hold, the bodies must be moving in a straight line and with constant velocity.

The second one states that, "the change of momentum of a moving body is directly proportional to the force producing it and it takes place to the direction of force."

From the choices given, the appropriate answer is B. F=ma
