2. Summarize how the force of gravity

1 answer:

5 0

In summary, gravity is the force that creates the pressure to fuse atoms, which makes the stars shine. Eventually the temperature is high enough that the star starts fusing hydrogen into helium. When the outward pressure produced by the heating of the gas by fusion energy balances gravity, a stable star is formed.

81. A 560-g squirrel with a surface area of 930cm2 falls from a 5.0-m tree to the ground. Estimate its terminal velocity. (Use a

Irina18 [472]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of squirrel $m=560 gm$

Surface area of squirrel $A=930 cm^2$

and the area which face $A_f=\frac{A}{2}=465 cm^2$

height of tree $h=5 m$

Coefficient of drag $C=1$

drag Force $F_d=\frac{1}{2}C\cdot \rho \cdot A\cdot v^2$

Terminal velocity is given

$F_d=mg$

$\frac{1}{2}C\cdot \rho \cdot A\cdot v^2=mg$

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2\times m\times g}{\rho \times C\times A_f}}$

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 0.560\times 9.8}{1.2\times 1\times 465\times 10^{-4}}}$

$v=13.9 m/s$

(b)Mass of person $m=56 kg$

$v^2-u^2=2gh$

$u=0$

$v=\sqrt{2gh}$

$v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 5}$

$v=9.89 m/s$

At a given moment in time, instantaneous speed can be thought of as the magnitude of instantaneous

kaheart [24]

At a given moment in time, the instantaneous speed can be thought of as the magnitude of instantaneous velocity.

Instantaneous speed is the magnitude of the instantaneous velocity, the instantaneous velocity has direction but the instantaneous speed does not have any direction. Hence, the instantaneous speed has the same value as that of the magnitude of the instantaneous velocity. It doesn't have any direction.

What is projectile motion is caused by?

olga55 [171]

A projectile is any object that is thrown, dropped or otherwise laughed into the air.
1) If it is dropped - it's motion is caused by just gravitation force
2) if it is thrown - it's motion is caused by gravitation force + force you applied to though it upwards
