How Is The Gravitational Force Acting On A Falling Object Calculated

Answers

Answer 1

Taking into account the Newton's second law, the gravitational force acting on a falling object is calculated by multiplying mass and acceleration due to gravity (third option).

Newton's second law

In first place, acceleration in a body occurs when a force acts on a body. There are two factors that influence the acceleration of an object: the net force acting on it and the mass of the body.

Newton's second law states that this force will change the speed of an object because the speed and / or direction will change. These changes in velocity are called acceleration.

So, Newton's second law defines the relationship between force and acceleration mathematically. This law says that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the sum of all the forces acting on it and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.

Mathematically, Newton's second law is expressed as:

F= m×a

where:

F = Force [N]m = Mass [kg]a = Acceleration [m/s²]

Gravitational force

In this case, the only force is gravity. Then, the gravitational force acting on a falling object is calculated by multiplying mass and acceleration due to gravity (third option).

Answer:

110.4 v

Explanation:

Find the equivalent resistance of the two parallel circuits

R1 and R2 in parallel   =   R1 * R2 / (R1+ R2) =   1 ohm

 similarly R4 and R5 =  4.77 ohms

Now you can add the three resistances into one  (R3=10)

    1 ohm + 10 ohm + 4.77 ohm = 15.77 ohms

Now

V = IR

V =  7 amps  * 15.77 ohm = 110.4 v

Calculate the final velocity of m1=2kg with its velocity at 5m/s

Answers

The final velocity of m₁=2kg with its velocity at 5m/s will be 4 m/s.

What is the law of conservation of momentum?

According to the law of conservation of momentum, the momentum of the body before the collision is always equal to the momentum of the body after the collision.

The given data in the problem is;

(m₁) is the mass = 2 kg

initial velocity (u₁) =5m/s

(m₂) is the mass  = 0.5

(u₂) initial velocity = 0 m/s

(v) is the velocity  =.?

According to the law of conservation of momentum;

Momentum before collision =Momentum after collision

[tex]\rm m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 = v(m_1 + m_2) \\\\ 2(5) + 0.5(0) = v(2 + 0.5)\\\\10 = 2.5v\\\\ v = \frac{10}{2.5} \\\\ v = 4 \ m/s[/tex]

Hence,The final velocity of m₁=2kg with its velocity at 5m/s will be 4 m/s.

2 kg
Use 10 m/s2 for g

Answers

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

At point A    the PE = mgh = 2 * 10 * 1 = 20 J

  at point B, all of the PE , 20 J , is converted to Kinetic Energy

KE = 1/2 m v^2

20 = 1/2 (2)(v^2 )

20 = v^2     v = sqrt 20 = 4.47 m/s

for the friction part

 vf = vo t  + 1/2 a t^2      vf = final velocity = 0 (stopped)

                                       vo = original velocity = 4.47 m/s  

                                         a = -1 m/s^2

  0 = 4.47 t + 1/2 (-1) t^2

            - .5t^2  + 4.47 t = 0

                 t ( -.5t+ 4.47) = 0    shows t =  4.47/.5 = 8.9 seconds

On a frictionless horizontal air table, puck A (with mass 0.251 kg ) is moving toward puck B (with mass 0.371 kg ), which is initially at rest. After the collision, puck A has velocity 0.120 m/s to the left, and puck B has velocity 0.654 m/s to the right.

What was the speed vAi of puck A before the collision?

Calculate ΔK , the change in the total kinetic energy of the system that occurs during the collision.

Answers

(a) The speed  of puck A before the collision is determined as 0.847 m/s.

(b) The change in the total kinetic energy of the system that occurs during the collision is 0.009 J.

Speed of puck A before the collision

The speed of puck A before the collision is calculated from the principle of conservation of linear momentum as follows;

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

0.251u₁ + 0.371(0) = 0.251( -0.12) + 0.371(0.654)

0.251u₁ = 0.2125

u₁ = 0.2125/0.251

u₁ = 0.847 m/s to the right

Change in the total kinetic energy of the system

Initial kinetic energy = ¹/₂ x 0.251 x (0.847)² + ¹/₂ x 0.371 x (0) = 0.09 J

Final kinetic energy = ¹/₂ x 0.251 x (-0.12)² + ¹/₂ x 0.371 x (0.654)² = 0.081 J

ΔK.E = 0.081 - 0.09 = 0.009 J ≈ 0 J

5. A person on a trampoline jumps straight up. When the person is 3 m above the surface and
with upward velocity of 2.5 m/s, drops a ball. a) What is the speed of the ball at the time of
impact? b) How long before the ball impacts the surface of trampoline?

Answers

a)The speed of the ball at the time of impact will be 8.1 m/sec.

b)The time taken by the ball impacts the surface of trampoline will be 1.1 second.

What is speed?

Speed is defined as the rate of change of the distance or the height attained. it is a time-based quantity. Its SI unit is m/sec.

Given data;

g( gravitational acceleration) = 9.81 m/s2

u (initial velocity of ball) = 2.5 m/s

h₁(initial height of the ball) = 3.0 m

v (speed of the ball at the time of impact ) ?

The time taken by ball for upward journey = u / g

t₁ = u / g

t₁  = (2.5 m/s) / (9.81 m/s2) =

t₁  =0.2548 s

From second equation of motion,upward vertical distance covered by ball is;

[tex]\rm h_2= \frac{1}{2} gt^2\\\\ h_2=\frac{1}{2} \times 9.81 \times (0.2548)^2\\\\ h_2=0.3184[/tex]

The total distance in the downward direction travelled;

[tex]\rm h_3=h_1+h_2 \\\\ h_3=3.0+0.3184 \\\\ h_3=3.3184 \ m[/tex]

The time taken for the downward motion is;

[tex]\rm t_2 = (\frac{2 \times h_3 }{g} )^\frac{1}{2}\\\\ t_2 = 0.825 \ m/sec[/tex]

The speed of the ball at the time of impact is found as;

[tex]\rm V=gt_2 \\\\ V= 9.81 \times 0.8225 \\\\ V= 8.07 \ m/sec[/tex]

The total time of the flight of ball is;

[tex]\rm t_3 = t_1+t_2 \\\\ t_3=0.2548+0.8225 \\\\ t_3=1.0774 \ sec[/tex]

Hence,the speed of the ball at the time of impact will be 8.1 m/sec and time taken by the ball impacts the surface of trampoline will be 1.1 second.

We can confirm that a contact force would be one in which physical contact is needed, while a no contact force does not require contact.

There are many everyday examples to be used to describe each of these forces. A very common no contact force is gravity. The Earth's gravity exerts a force on all things near the planet, but it does not need to be in physical contact to exert this force, thus making gravity a no contact force. An example of a contact force would be if you were to push another person. You are exerting a force that requires physical contact.

Therefore, we can confirm that a contact force would be one in which physical contact is needed, while a no contact force does not require contact.
