A baseball on the Moon and an identical baseball on the Earth are thrown vertically upward with the same initial velocity of 12 m/s. The acceleration due to gravity on the Moon is 1/6 that of Earth. What is the maximum height the ball reaches on the moon? What is the maximum height the ball reaches on the earth? What is the difference in the maximum height the ball reaches on the Moon compared to on Earth?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a. 3.68 m b. 0.61 m c. 3.07 m

Explanation:

a. What is the maximum height the ball reaches on the moon?

Using v² = u² - 2g'h where u = initial velocity of baseball = 12 m/s, v =  final velocity of baseball = 0 m/s (since it stops at maximum height), g' = acceleration due to gravity on moon = g/6 where g = acceleration due to gravity on earth = 9.8 m/s², so g' = 9.8 m/s²/6 = 1.63 m/s² and h = maximum height of ball on moon.

So, making h subject of the formula, we have

h = -(v² - u²)/2g'

substituting the values of the variables, we have

h = -((0 m/s)² - (12 m/s)²)/2(1.63 m/s²)

=  -(- 12 m²/s²)/2(1.63 m/s²)

= 6 m²/s²)/(1.63 m/s²)

= 3.68 m

b. What is the maximum height the ball reaches on the earth?

Using the same equation for the maximum height the baseball travels on the moon for that on the earth, the maximum height h' the baseball travels on the earth is given by  

h' = -(v² - u²)/2g where u = initial velocity of baseball = 12 m/s, v =  final velocity of baseball = 0 m/s (since it stops at maximum height),  g = acceleration due to gravity on earth = 9.8 m/s²and h' = maximum height of ball on moon.

substituting the values of the variables, we have

h = -((0 m/s)² - (12 m/s)²)/2(9.8 m/s²)

=  -(- 12 m²/s²)/2(9.8 m/s²)

= 6 m²/s²)/(9.8 m/s²)

= 0.61 m

c. What is the difference in the maximum height the ball reaches on the Moon compared to on Earth?

The difference in the maximum height the ball reaches on the Moon compared to on Earth is d = h - h' = 3.68 m - 0.61 m = 3.07 m

A student buys a plastic dart gun and tries to find the maximum horizontal range. The student shoots the gun straight up and it takes 3.7 seconds for the dart to return back to the height of the barrel. What is the maximum horizontal range of the gun?

Answers

Answer:

The value is [tex]R_{max} = 33.54 \ m[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The total time of flight is  [tex]t = 3.7 \ s[/tex]

Generally from kinematic equation

        [tex]v = u - g * \frac{t}{2}[/tex]

So v is the velocity at maximum height and the value is  v = 0 m/s

So

       [tex]0 = u - 9.8 * \frac{ 3.7}{2}[/tex]

=>   [tex]u = 18.13 \ m/s[/tex]

Here u  is the initial velocity of the dart as it leaves that gun  

Gnerally the horizontal range of the dart is mathematically represented as

         [tex]R = \frac{u ^2 sin 2\theta }{g}[/tex]

For maximum horizontal range the value of  [tex]\theta = 45^o[/tex]        

So

         [tex]R_{max} = \frac{ 18.13 ^2 sin 2(45) }{9.8}[/tex]

=>     [tex]R_{max} = 33.54 \ m[/tex]

The acceleration due to gravity on the earths surface is?​

Answers

Acceleration due to gravity depends directly on the mass of Earth and inversely to the square of radius of Earth.

Answer:

9.8 m/s2

Explanation:

Acceleration due to gravity is the acceleration gained by an object due to the gravitational force. Its SI unit is m/s 2. It has both magnitude and direction, hence, it’s a vector quantity. Acceleration due to gravity is represented by g. The standard value of g on the surface of the earth at sea level is 9.8 m/s2.

A liquid has a density of 0.85 g/cm. If you pour some of the liquid into a glass of water, will the liquid float?
Explain how you know
PLEASE HURRY

Answers

Answer:

Yes, it will float.

Explanation:

It is given that,

A liquid has a density of 0.85 g/cm³.

We know that, the density of water is 1 g/cm³.

The density of the liquid is less than that of water. If the density of the liquid is less than that of water, it will float in it. Hence, if you pour some of the liquid into a glass of water, it will float.

A satellite was in two separate crashes. In both crashes, the satellite had the same mass. Engineers want to know about the speed and direction of the satellite after the crashes. Why would the crash affect the motion of the satellite, and which crash caused a greater change in motion for the satellite?
Read the question and use the picture to help you with this one


use all 3 of the sentence starters
-The speed and direction of the satellite was
-The crash affected the motion of the satellite because . . .
-The _____ crash caused . . .

PLEASE HURRYYYY

Answers

Answer & Explanation:

Crashing into the asteroid would cause the satellite to slow down, stop, or reverse direction, because it is a force in the opposite direction to the satellite's motion. Whichever crash was a stronger force would cause it to change motion more. It takes a stronger force to change the velocity of a more massive object.

Form hypothesis: How do you think increasing the resistance in a circuit will affect the current in the wire? (format: if, then, because)

Answers

Answer:it would make it thicker

Explanation:

Answer:

"The equation shows that the current in a circuit is inversely proportional to the resistance of the circuit. An increase in resistance would result in a decrease in current. And the factor by which the resistance increases is the same factor by which the current decreases."

Explanation:

Because it's just like wearing a glove/mitten when getting something out of the oven, because of the insulation from the glove/mitten, it reduces the heat that gets through into your hand, and it protects it. Just like what the "answer" says, it said that the resistance would decrease current.

Answers

Answer:

The ground pushes back on your feet with equal force

Explanation:

When you walk across the ground and push on it with your feet, the ground pushes back on your feet with an equal and opposite force.

This interpretation and knowledge is gotten from Newton's third law of motion.

It states that "action and reaction force are equal and opposite in nature".

The force applied to a body responds with an opposite force in the other direction. Therefore, the reaction force is of equal magnitude but directed in another direction.
