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 10 g bullet is fired into, and embeds itself in, a 2 kg block attached to a spring with a force constant of 19.6 n/m and whose
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

x=0.478\ m is the compression in the spring

Explanation:

Given:

  • mass of the bullet, m=10\ g=0.01\ kg
  • mass of block, M=2\ kg
  • stiffness constant of the spring, k=19.6\ N.m^{-1}
  • initial velocity of the spring just before it hits the block, u=300\ m.s^{-1}

<u>Now since the bullet-mass gets embed into the block, we apply the conservation of momentum as:</u>

m.u=(M+m).v

0.01\times 300=(2+0.01)\times v

v=1.4925\ m.s^{-1}

Now this kinetic energy of the combined mass gets converted into potential energy of the spring.

\rm Kinetic\ energy=Spring\ potential\ energy

\frac{1}{2} (M+m).v^2=\frac{1}{2} k.x^2

\frac{1}{2} \times (2+0.01)\times 1.4925^2=\frac{1}{2} \times 19.6\times x^2

x=0.478\ m is the compression in the spring

A jet plane travels at 40.8 km at an average speed of 340 m/s calculate how long this journey took- giveyour answer to the neare
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

2\ \text{minutes}

Explanation:

d = Distance traveled = 40.8 km

s = Speed of jet = 340 m/s

Time is given by

t=\dfrac{d}{s}

\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{40.8\times 10^3}{340}

\Rightarrow t=120\ \text{s}

\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{120}{60}=2\ \text{minutes}

The time taken to complete the journey is 2\ \text{minutes}.

How fast did Newton decide a cannon ball shot out in order to escape Earth’s gravity?
arsen [322]

Plugging in for the Earth's mass and for G, we have 11.2 km/s for the escape velocity for an object launched from the Earth's surface. This is about 25,000 miles per hour
