Answer:
effects of gravity on the Moon and Earth
Explanation: Newton found the Moon's inward acceleration in its orbit to be 0.0027 metre per second per second, the same as (1/60)2 of the acceleration of a falling object at the surface of Earth.
How long does it take a plane, traveling at a constant speed of 123 m/s, to fly once around a circle whose radius is 4330 m?
Answer:
3.7 minExplanation:
Step one:
given data
speed = 123m/s
radius of circle= 4330m
Step two:
We need to find the circumference of the circle, it represents the distance traveled
C=2πr
C= 2*3.142*4330
C= 27209.72m
Step three:
We know that velocity= distance/time
time= distance/velocity
time= 27209.72/123
time=221.2 seconds
in minute = 221.2/60
time= 3.7 min
There is a bell at the top of a tower that is 45 m high. The bell weighs 190 N. The bell has ____________ energy.
Answer:
The bell has 8,550 Joule energy.
Explanation:
Gravitational Potential Energy
Gravitational potential energy is the energy stored in an object because of its height in a gravitational field.
It can be calculated with the equation:
U=m.g.h
Where:
m = mass of the object
h = height
g = acceleration of gravity, or [tex]9.8 m/s^2[/tex]
Since the weight of an object of mass m can be calculated as:
W = m.g
The gravitational potential energy is:
U = W.h
The bell of weight W=190 N at the top of a tower is h=45 m high. Thus its energy is:
U = 190 N . 45 m
U = 8,550 Joule
The bell has 8,550 Joule energy.

Activity
Watch this video and then answer the following questions based on what you learned.
Part A
How does a bicycle make work easier?
Part B
Which two examples of levers are mentioned in the video?
The picture shows a bicycle’s pedals. Look at the shaft that the pedals are attached to. Do you think the shaft is a lever? Why or why not?
Answer:
word for word answers!
Explanation:
1) Part A: By pedaling a bicycle lightly, the rider can go a long way
2) Part B: The two examples mentioned in the video are the handlebars and the brakes
3) Yes, it’s a type of lever because the two pedals rotate around a fixed point
