Answer:

17.35 × 10^(-6) m

Explanation:

Mass; m = 50 kg

Weight; W = 554 N

From the formula:

W = mg

This simplifies to; 554 = 50g

g = 554/50

g = 11.08 m/s²

Also, using the formula;

mg = GMm/r²

hence; g = GM/r²

Rearranging gives;

r = √(GM/g)

With G as a known constant of 6.67 × 10^(-11) Nm²/kg²

r = √(6.67 × 10^(-11) × 50/11.08)

r = 17.35 × 10^(-6) m

Two experiments are performed on an object to determine how much the object resists a change in its state of motion while at res
inna [3103]

Answer:

The first experiment measures inertial mass, while the second experiment measures gravitational mass.

Explanation:

A student conducts two different experiments to observe resistance to changes in motion, both when at rest and in motion.

In the initial experiment, an object is forcefully pushed against a flat surface while its speed is tracked by a sensor. This setup involves work done against the object's inertia, identifying the mass as inertial mass.

Conversely, in the subsequent experiment, the object is lifted or thrown upward with an applied force and the speed is recorded. Here, the mass refers to gravitational mass, as the work performed combats gravity or the object's weight.

The principle of momentum conservation<span> is a key law in the field of physics. It asserts that the </span>momentum<span> within a system remains unchanged unless there are </span>external forces influencing the system. In the case of two balls, each weighing 0.5 kg, colliding on a pool table<span>, this principle does not hold because external forces acted upon the balls during the collision. </span>

To avoid an accident, a driver steps on the brakes to stop a 1000-kg car traveling at 65km/h. if the braking distance is 35 m, h
Maru [3345]
Initially, we need to calculate the acceleration required for the car to halt from its initial speed based on the distance traveled. This can be done using the formula,
                                             2ad = Vf² - Vi²
where a represents acceleration, d is distance, and Vf and Vi are the final and initial speeds respectively. Plugging in the known quantities,
           2(a)(35 m) = (0 m/s)² - ((65 km/h) x (1000 m/ 1 km) x (1 hr / 3600 s))²
The resulting acceleration is −4.66 m/s².
To calculate the force required to stop the car, we multiply the mass by the acceleration. This calculation yields -4,660 N, and we take the absolute value, which is 4,660 N.

A bowling pin is thrown vertically upward such that it rotates as it moves through the air, as shown in the figure. Initially, t
Ostrovityanka [3204]

Answer:

Explanation:

The equation used to determine the maximum height of the bowling pin during its trajectory is given by;

H = u²/2g

where u, the initial speed/velocity, equals 10m/s

g stands for gravitational acceleration = 9.81m/s²

Substituting in the values gives us

H = 10²/2(9.81)

H = 100/19.62

Consequently, the highest point of the bowling pin's center of mass is approximately 5.0m.
