What happens to gravity when someone jumps up?
Alla [95]

Answer:

The direct answer to the question as written is as follows: nothing happens to gravity when someone jumps up - gravity continues exerting a force on the body of that particular someone proportional to (mass of someone) x (mass of Earth) / (distance squared). What you might be asking, however, is what is the net force acting on the body of someone jumping up. At the moment of  someone jumping up there is an upward acceleration, i.e., an upward-directed force which counteracts the gravitational force - this is the net force ( a result of the jump force minus gravity). From that moment on, only gravity acts on the body. The someone moves upward gradually decelerating to the downward gravitational acceleration until they reaches the peak of the jump (zero velocity). Then, back to Earth.

What ramp angle would produce an acceleration of 2 m/s2 for a cart rolling down? Assume no friction and that the angle is measur
r-ruslan [8.4K]
From Newton's second law:
a = F/mass
Therefore, acceleration of an object rolling a ramp would be:
a = g(sin theta) - friction coefficient (g) (sin theta)
The negative sine is due to the kinetic energy opposing the gravity

We are given that the friction coefficient is zero, the g is a constant = 9.8 m/sec and the acceleration is 2 m/sec^2
Substituting in the equation, we get:
2 = 9.8 sin(theta)
sin (theta) = 0.20408
theta = 11.7757 degrees

An electron (mass = 9.11 X 10^-31 kg) leaves one end of a TV picture tube with zero initial speed and travels in a straight line
nlexa [21]

Answer: a) 2.5 * 10^14, b) t = 1.2*10^-8 s, c) F = 2.2775 * 10^-15 N

Explanation: Since it starts from rest, initial velocity = 0, final velocity (v) = 3*10^6 m/s, distance covered (s) = 1.80cm = 1.80/100 = 0.018m

Since the force on the electron is constant, it acceleration will be constant too thus making newton's laws of motion valid.

Question a)

To get the acceleration, we use the formulae that

v² = u² + 2as

But u = 0

v² = 2as

(3*10^6)² = 2*a*(0.018)

9* 10^12 = 0.036*a

a = 9 * 10^12 / 0.036

a = 250 * 10^12

a = 2.5 * 10^14 m/s².

Question b)

To get the time, we use

v = u + at

But u = 0

v = at

3*10^6 = 2.5 * 10^14 * t

t = 3*10^6 / 2.5*10^14

t = 1.2*10^-8 s

Question c)

To get the force, we use the formulae below

F = ma

F = 9.11*10^-31 * 2.5 * 10^14

F = 22.775 * 10^-17

F = 2.2775 * 10^-15 N
