Gravity is directly proportional to the size of an object. Therefore, the object with the most mass will have the greatest force of gravity. We know this from the equation. $F = G\frac{m_1m_2}{r^2}$

Say you want to make a sling by swinging a mass M of 2.3 kg in a horizontal circle of radius 0.034 m, using a string of length 0

ycow [4]

Answer:

T = 764.41 N

Explanation:

In this case the tension of the string is determined by the centripetal force. The formula to calculate the centripetal force is given by:

$F_c=m\frac{v^2}{r}$ (1)

m: mass object = 2.3 kg

r: radius of the circular orbit = 0.034 m

v: tangential speed of the object

However, it is necessary to calculate the velocity v first. To find v you use the formula for the kinetic energy:

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

You have the value of the kinetic energy (13.0 J), then, you replace the values of K and m, and solve for v^2:

$v^2=\frac{2K}{m}=\frac{2(13.0J)}{2.3kg}=11.3\frac{m^2}{s^2}$

you replace this value of v in the equation (1). Also, you replace the values of r and m:

$F_c=(2.3kg)(\frac{11.3m^2/s^2}{0.034})=764.41N$

hence, the tension in the string must be T = Fc = 764.41 N

Why does the temperature decreases at higher altitudes

sergey [27]

temperature decreases at higher altitudes because as air rises the pressure decreases.

A gas has an initial volume of 212 cm^3 at a temperature of 293 K and a pressure of 0.98 atm. What is the final pressure of the

MatroZZZ [7]

For this we use general equation for gases. Our variables represent:

p- pressure
v-volume
t- temperature

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

in this equation we know:
P1,V1 and T1, T2 and V2.
We have one equation and 1 unknown variable.

P2 = T2P1V1/T1V2 = 1.1atm
