Under the assumption that the three rocks are dropped from the same height, they will hit the ground at the same speed. The gravity of Earth is virtually the same for any object that is small compared to the size of the Earth. The acceleration will change with the distance from the Earth, but this change is so small for the range of heights we work with (consider the range of heights from sea level to the tip of Mount Everest) that we can take the average value and assume it to be constant. This constant value of acceleration due to Earth's gravity is 9.80665m/s²
Because the objects fall under the same constant acceleration, they will hit the ground at the same speed.
Given
Weight of the block A, Wa = 20 lb, weight of block B Wb = 50 lb. Applied
force to block A, P = 6lb, coefficient of static friction µs = 0.4, coefficient
of kinetic friction µk = 0.3. If a force P
is applied to the body, no relative motion will take place until the applied
force is equal to the force of friction Ff, which is acting opposite to the
direction of motion. Magnitude of static force of friction between block A and
block B, Fs = µsN, where N is
reaction force acting on block A. Now, resolve the forces Fx = max. P = (mA +
mB)a,
6 = (20 / 32.2 + 50 / 32.2)a
2.173a = 6
A = 2.76 ft/s^2
To check slipping occurs between block A and block B, consider block A:
P – Ff = mAaA
6 – Ff = 1.71
Ff = 4.29 lb
And also,
N = wA. We know static friction,
Fs = µsN
Fs = 0.4 x 20
Fs = 8lb
Frictional force is less than static friction. Ff < Fs
<span>Therefors, acceleration of block A, aA = 2.76 ft/s^2, acceleration of
block B aB = 2.76 ft/s^2</span>
Anytime that an unstable nucleus emits alpha or bets particles, the number of protons and neutrons changes. ... In the fission process, when the nucleus splits, both neutrons and energy are released
The answer is b increases in increase of mass because the heavier the object is the more gravitional pull it will have. For example, what will fall faster? A 1 pound object or a 10 pound obect.
