As per the question the earth pulls the apple with a force of 0.5 N.

There are four options out of which we have to choose the most accurate answer.

From Newton's third law of motion we know that for every action there  is an equal and opposite reaction.The force applied by one substance on other is called action and the force that it gets in turn is called reaction.

The earth pulls apple with a force of 0.5 N. Hence the apple must pull the earth with a force of 0.5 N. Otherwise it will violate the fundamental role of physics.

Hence the most accurate option is the last one.

A girl rolls a ball up an incline and allows it to return to her. For the angle ! and ball involved, the acceleration of the bal
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

The distance the ball moves up the incline before reversing its direction is 3.2653 m.

The total time required for the ball to return to the child’s hand is 3.2654 s.

Explanation:

When the girl is moving up:

The final velocity (v) = 0 m/s

Initial velocity (u) = 4 m/s

a = -0.25g = -0.25*9.8 = -2.45 m/s². (Negative because it is in opposite of the velocity and also it deaccelerates while going up).

Let time be t  to reach the top.

Using

v = u + a×t

0 = 4 - 2.45*t

t = 1.6327 s

Since, this is the same time the ball will come back. So,

<u>Total time to go and come back = 2* 1.6327 = 3.2654 s </u>

To find the distance, using:

v² = u² + 2×a×s

0² = 4² + 2×(-2.45)×s

s = 3.2653 m

<u>Thus, the distance the ball moves up the incline before reversing its direction is 3.2653 m.</u>

Neha and Suhani are playing with two identical pendulums. They leave the bob from a certain position and wait for it to return t
Anika [276]

Answer:

The correct option is C

Explanation:

The pendulum bob would return at the same time because the initial angle a pendulum bob is dropped does not affect it's period (the time it takes for the pendulum to move back and forth), however the one with a larger angle move faster but would eventually arrive at the same "starting point" due to varying displacements made.

A hockey stick of mass ms and length L is at rest on the ice (which is assumed to be frictionless). A puck with mass mp hits the
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

L = mp*v₀*(ms*D) / (ms + mp)

Explanation:

Given info

ms = mass of the hockey stick

uis = 0 (initial speed of the hockey stick before the collision)

xis = D (initial position of center of mass of the hockey stick before the collision)

mp = mass of the puck

uip = v₀ (initial speed of the puck before the collision)

xip = 0 (initial position of center of mass of the puck before the collision)

If we apply

Ycm = (ms*xis + mp*xip) / (ms + mp)

⇒  Ycm = (ms*D + mp*0) / (ms + mp)

⇒  Ycm = (ms*D) / (ms + mp)

Now, we can apply the equation

L = m*v*R

where m = mp

v = v₀

R = Ycm

then we have

L = mp*v₀*(ms*D) / (ms + mp)
