Explanation:
In uniform gravity it is the same as the centre of mass. For regular shaped bodies it lies at the centre of the that particular body. Hence for a cylinder centre of gravity lies at the midpoint of the axis of the cylinder.
Explanation:
We developed a spherical harmonic series that represents the gravitational potential and its gravity field due to a buried right vertical cylinder. This series can be used at far- and intermediate-regions, and is fast and accurate, using only a few terms. We compared the values of the fields acquired by this new spherical harmonic series, with ones computed by direct numerical integrations, using a fine-mesh structure for a vertical cylinder. Results of the calculations are shown and performances of the two different methods are compared. Faithfulness of the spherical harmonic series is tested with an inversion example.
Explain the following behaviour of molecules water rises up in a harrow tubes but mercury which is also a liquid falls in a narrow tubes to level below the outside surface
Answer: find the answer in the explanation
Explanation:
The capillarity of water molecules is different from the mercury molecules.
What is capillarity ?
This is the tendency of a liquid substance to rise in a capillary tube.
Molecules water rises up in a harrow tubes because of the force of adhesion between the water molecules and the tube molecules is greater than the force of cohesion between the water molecules. This helps water to wet the tube and rise. While mercury which is also a liquid falls in a narrow tubes to level below the outside surface because the force of cohesion between the mercury molecules is greater than the force of adhesion between the mercury molecules and the tube molecules. Mercury does not wet.
The diagram below shows a 5.0-kilogram bucket of water being swung in a horizontal circle of 0.70-meter radius
at a constant speed of 2.0 meters per second.
5.0-kg Bucket
0.70 m
The magnitude of the centripetal force on the bucket of water is approximately
1) 5.7 N
2) 14 N
3) 29 N
4) 200 N
Answer:
F = 29 N
Explanation:
We have,
Mass of the bucket of water is 5 kg
Radius of a horizontal circle is 0.7 m
Speed of the circle is 2 m/s
It is required to find the magnitude of centripetal force on the bucket of water. The formula used to find the magnitude of centripetal force is given by :
[tex]F=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}\\\\F=\dfrac{5\times (2)^2}{0.7}\\\\F=28.57\ N[/tex]
or
F = 29 N
So, the centripetal force on the bucket of water is 29 N.
The magnitude of the centripetal force on the bucket of water is approximately 29 N
Definition of centripetal forceCentripetal force is the force that acts to keep an object moving in a circular motion. It is expressed mathematically as:
F = mv² / r
With the above formula, we can obtain the centripetal force acting on the bucket.
How to determine centripetal force•Mass (m) = 5 Kg
•Radius (R) = 0.7 m
•Velocity (v) = 2 m/s
•Centripetal force (F) =?
F = mv² / r
F = (5 × 2²) / 0.7
F = (5 × 4) / 0.7
F = 20 / 0.7
F = 29 N

Prove that the acceleration due to gravity is independent to
the mass of the falling body
Answer:
The force of gravity on an object increases with its mass; thus, the acceleration of gravity is constant.
Explanation:
one can prove this by plugging in values to Newton's 2nd law equation
F = ma, or by using the formula to calculate the force of gravity.
Force of Gravity = GMm/r^2
with G being the gravitational constant, M the mass of the earth, m the mass of the falling body, and r the distance from the earth's center.
Force of Gravity can be written as mg, with g being the acceleration due to gravity.
As we can see, m cancels on both sides, leaving
g = GM/r^2
Generally in physics problems, r will be treated as constant to achieve
g = 9.8m/s^2

A rocket is launched from atop a 101 foot cliff with an initial velocity of 116 ft/s.
\a. Substitute the values into the vertical motion formula h(t) = -16t2 + vt + h0 . Let h(t) = 0
b. How long will the rocket take to hit the ground after it is launched? Round to the nearest tenth of a second.
Answer:
A. 16t2 -116t -101=0 B. 8.0s
Explanation:
Known parameters from the question:
Height of Cliff,h0 = 101ft
Velocity of rocket ,v= 116ft/s.
1.Substituting the above to the above formula we have;
h(t) = -16t2 + vt + h0
Since h(t) =0, it means the rocket is falling towards the ground, when it gets to the ground when it's at rest the height h(t) = 0m
{Note the rocket is launched from the height of the Cliff so that would be the initial height of the rocket,h0}
2.Substituting into h(t) = -16t2 + vt + h0
We have;
0 = -16t2 + 116t + 101=> 16t2 -116t -101=0
Using formula method for solving quadratic equation we have;
t = -(-116)+_√[(-116)^2 -( 4× 16 ×-101]/ (2× 16)
t = [116 +_(141.1382)]/32
t = (116 -141.1382)/32 or (116 +141.1382)/32
-0.786s or 8.036s
-0.8s or 8.0s to the nearest tenth.
Now time cannot be negative in real life situation hence the time is 8.0s
Note : the general equation of a quadratic equation with variable t is given below;
at2 + bt + c=0
Formula method for quadratic equation is :
t =( -b+_√[(b^2 -( 4× a×c)] ) / (2× a)
In a hydroelectric power station, how much potential energy is lost by 100tonnes of water flowing down through the pipes, falling a vertical distance of 200metres? [1tonne=1000kg.]
Answer:
196000000 J
Explanation:
Potential Energy: This can be defined as the energy of a body due to its position in the gravitational field.
From the question,
P.E = mgh.................. Equation 1
Where P.E = potential Energy, m = mass of the water, h = height, g = acceleration due to gravity.
Given: m = 100 tonnes = (100×1000) = 100000 kg, h = 200 m
Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²
Substitute into equation 1
P.E = 100000(200)(9.8)
P.E = 196000000 J.
Note: When a object falls through a height he losses its potential energy.
Hence the potential energy lost = 196000000 J = 196 MJ.

A 50 - N x m torque acts on a wheel with a moment of inertia 150 kg x m² . If the wheel starts from rest , how long will it take the wheel to make one revolution ?
Answer:
t = 6.17 s
Explanation:
For a 1 revolution movement, [tex]\triangle \theta = 2\pi[/tex]
Torque, [tex]\tau = 50 Nm[/tex]
Moment of Inertia, [tex]I = 150 kg m^2[/tex]
If the wheel starts from rest, [tex]w_{0} = 0 rad/s[/tex]
The angular displacement of the wheel can be given by the formula:
[tex]\triangle \theta = \omega_0 t + 0.5 \alpha t^2[/tex]................(1)
Where [tex]\alpha[/tex] is the angular acceleration
[tex]\tau = I \alpha\\\alpha = \frac{\tau}{I} \\\alpha = 50/150\\\alpha = 0.33 rad/s^2[/tex]
To get t, put all necessary parameters into equation (1)
[tex]2\pi = 0(t) + 0.5(0.33)t^2\\2\pi =0.5(0.33)t^2\\t^2 = \frac{4 \pi}{0.33} \\t^2 = 38.08\\t = 6.17 s[/tex]

A 31.7 kg kid, initially at rest, slides
down a frictionless water slide at 53.2º.
How fast is she moving 3.45 s later?
Answer:
34.55m/s
Explanation:
Now from Newton's law of motion;
V= U+ a×t
V- final velocity
U- initial velocity = 0m/s
a- acceleration
t- time
Note that a = g/cos53.2°
Now g is acceleration of free fall due to gravity
This is a vertical acceleration since the course of motion is along a plane inclined at 53.2° to the height of the pool.
Also from trigonometry identity
cos 53.2°= vertical component a/ acceleration ( cos a = adjacent/hypothenus)
If we assume g = 9.8m/S2 { a generally given value}
Substituting t = 3.45s as the time of consideration, we have;
V = 0 + (9.8/cos53.2°)×3.45
= -34.55m/s
Note the -ve sign is just telling us this velocity is causing the object to move down.
Hence V = 34.55m/s
Answer:
27.07 m/s

A wave has an amplitude of 2 cm. What is its energy (KW)?
Answer:
1.962 × 10⁻³ kW
Explanation:
The energy of a wave of a wave, such as an ocean wave, in regions of considerable water depth given its amplitude in a meter of crest and surface unit is given by the relation;
[tex]E = \dfrac{\rho \times g \times A^2}{2}[/tex]
Where:
ρ = Density of water = 1000 kg/m³
g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²
A = Wave amplitude = 2 cm = 0.02 m
We therefore have;
[tex]E = \dfrac{1000 \times 9.81 \times (0.02)^2}{2} = 1.962 \ \dfrac{m^2 \cdot kg}{s^2} = 1.962 \ J[/tex]
The energy is power is the energy per second which is gives;
P = E /second = 1.962 J/s = 1.962 W = 1.962 × 10⁻³ kW.
Rhodes research indicates that people are generally accurate in guessing the ages of unfamiliar persons based on their faces. This research has important implications for
The available options are:
A. bartenders serving alcohol
B. students identifying their professors.
C. Doctors diagnosing cases of schizophrenia.
D. eyewitnesses identifying suspects from a lineup.
Answer:
A. bartenders serving alcohol
Explanation:
This is because of the underage rule concerning sale of alcohol. Thus, there are occasional period in which underage person or a minor will want to buy alcohol, and without necessarily asking for the birth certificate or ID card that contains Age information, it is therefore, necessary for bartenders to be able to tell the age of their unfamiliar customers, by mere looking at them, so as not to sell to a minor.
Hemce, Rhodes research in guessing the age of unfamiliar person has important implications for BARTENDERS SERVING ALCOHOL, because it will guide them to determine Underage or Minor, that want to buy alcohol from them.
The space shuttle is accelerated off its launch pad to a velocity of 525 m/s in 18.0 seconds.
What is its average acceleration?
Answer: 29.17m/s^2
Explanation:
Given the following :
Velocity = 525 m/s
Time = 18 seconds
Acceleration = change in Velocity with time
Using the motion equation:
v = u + at
Where v = final Velocity
u = Initial Velocity and t = time
Plugging our values
525 = 0 + a × 18
525 = 18(a)
a = 525 / 18
a = 29.166666
a = 29.17 m/s^2
