Two Factors That Affect How Much Gravity Is on an Object. Gravity is the force that gives weight to objects and causes them to fall to the ground when dropped. Two major factors, mass and distance, affect the strength of gravitational force on an object.

attractive force only means force pulling two things together but factors affecting the force depend on the kind of force. gravity is an attractive force n the other helper gave the factors.

another attractive force is magnetic force and how strong the magnet will determine how strong the attractive force.

electrostatic force can also be attractive and the amount of electric charge will determine the force.

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

e. Not enough information to determine

Explanation:

This question is incomplete. Here is the complete question with my solution afterwards;

A ladybug sits at the outer edge of a turntable, and a gentleman bug sits halfway between her and the axis of rotation. The turntable (initially at rest) begins to rotate with its rate of rotation constantly increasing.

What is the first event that will occur?(Assume non-zero frictional force and the same coefficients of friction for both bugs.)

a. The ladybug begins to slide

b. The gentleman bug begins to slide

c. Both bugs begin to slide at the same time

d. Nothing ever happens

e. Not enough information to determine

The centripetal force acting on a rotating body or bugs can be written as,

$F=mrw^2$

$m=$ mass of the corresponding bugs

$r=$ corresponding radial distance of each bug

$w=$ angular speed of the turntable

The centripetal force tries to slide the bugs in an outward direction and it is directly proportional to the products of its mass and radial distance from the axis of rotation of the turntable

$F$ ∝ $mr$

Since the radial distance from the axis of rotation of the turntable for each bug is given, but the mass is not given, the given information is therefore not enough to determine which bugs will slide first.

Option "e" is correct.

While traveling from Boston to Hartford, Person A drives at a constant speed of 55 mph for the entire trip. Person B drives at 6

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

B will take 1.034 times the time of A from Boston to Hartford.

Explanation:

Let the distance from Boston to Hartford be S.

Person A drives at a constant speed of 55 mph for the entire trip,

Time taken by person A

$t_A=\frac{S}{55}$

Person B drives at 65 mph for half the distance and then drives 45 mph for the second half of the distance.

Time taken by person B

$t_B=\frac{\frac{S}{2}}{65}+\frac{\frac{S}{2}}{45}=\frac{S}{130}+\frac{S}{90}=\frac{220S}{130\times 90}=\frac{11S}{585}$

Ratio of time of arrival of B to A

$\frac{t_B}{t_A}=\frac{\frac{11S}{585}}{\frac{S}{55}}=\frac{121}{117}=1.034$

B will take 1.034 times the time of A from Boston to Hartford.

A 5.00 kilogram mass is traveling at 100. meters per second. Determine the speed of the mass after an impulse with a magnitude o

faltersainse [42]

m = mass = 5 kg

$v_{i}$ = initial velocity = 100 m/s

$v_{f}$ = final velocity = ?

I = impulse = 30 Ns

Using the impulse-change in momentum equation

I = m( $v_{f}$ - $v_{i}$ )

30 = 5 ( $v_{f}$ - 100)

$v_{f}$ = 106 m/s

block of mass 0.5kg on a horizontal surface is attached to a horizontal spring of negligible mass and spring constant 50N/m . Th

Alisiya [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

The mass of the block is 0.5kg

m = 0.5kg.

The spring constant is 50N/m

k =50N/m.

When the spring is stretch to 0.3m

e=0.3m

The spring oscillates from -0.3 to 0.3m

Therefore, amplitude is A=0.3m

Magnitude of acceleration and the direction of the force

The angular frequency (ω) is given as

ω = √(k/m)

ω = √(50/0.5)

ω = √100

ω = 10rad/s

The acceleration of a SHM is given as

a = -ω²A

a = -10²×0.3

a = -30m/s²

Since we need the magnitude of the acceleration,

Then, a = 30m/s²

To know the direction of net force let apply newtons second law

ΣFnet = ma

Fnet = 0.5 × -30

Fnet = -15N

Fnet = -15•i N

The net force is directed to the negative direction of the x -axis

How can controlling the way light bends and reflects be used to help people?

Vinil7 [7]

too much sun is dangerous for humans and can cause cancer so it's important that light is reflected for example a pool reflects water back to space that is why water sometimes is cold because it reflects light
