the radius of earth is about 6.38 x10^3 km. A 7.20 x10^3 N spacecraft travels away from earth. What is the weight of the spacecraft at the following distances from Earth's surface? a) 6.38 x 10^3 km

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]1796.65\ \text{N}[/tex]

Explanation:

g = Acceleration due to gravity = [tex]9.81\ \text{m/s}^2[/tex]

w = Weight of spracecraft at the surface = [tex]7.2\times10^3\ \text{N}[/tex]

m = Mass of spracecraft

R = Radius of Earth = [tex]6.38\times10^3\ \text{km}[/tex]

h = Elevation = [tex]6.38\times10^3\ \text{km}[/tex]

G = Gravitational constant = [tex]6.674\times 10^{-11}\ \text{Nm}^2/\text{kg}^2[/tex]

M = Mass of Earth = [tex]5.972\times 10^{24}\ \text{kg}[/tex]

[tex]w=mg\\\Rightarrow m=\dfrac{w}{g}\\\Rightarrow m=\dfrac{7.2\times 10^3}{9.81}\\\Rightarrow m=733.94\ \text{kg}[/tex]

From the gravitational law we have

[tex]w'=\dfrac{GMm}{(r+h)^2}\\\Rightarrow w'=\dfrac{6.674\times10^{-11}\times 5.972\times 10^{24}\times 733.94}{(6.38\times10^6+6.38\times10^6)^2}\\\Rightarrow w'=1796.65\ \text{N}[/tex]

The weight of the spacecraft at the given height is [tex]1796.65\ \text{N}[/tex]

A 10 kg box initially at rest is pulled with a 50 N horizontal force for 4 m across a level surface. The force of friction acting on the box is a constant 20 N. How much work is done by the normal force pushing up on the box from the ground?
A. 10 J
B. 0 J
C. 100 J
D. 50 J

Answers

Answer: 0 j

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the box, m = 10 kg

Force with which the box is pulled, F = 50 N

It is moved a distance of 4 m

Force of friction acting on the box, f = 20 N

We need to find the initial kinetic energy the box have. It is clear that the box is at rest initially. As there is no motion in the box at that time. The formula for the kinetic energy of the box is given by :

As v = 0

So, the initial kinetic energy of the box is 0. Hence, this is the required solution.

(9) Draw a ray diagram for a 5.0-cm tall object placed 45.0 cm from a converging lens having a focal length of 15.0 cm 21 Reduced​

Answers

Answer is

53.3cm I think

53.3cm will be the focal length of converging lens.

What is Converging lens?

The light beams in this instance diverge after passing through the lens. A virtual image is created when diverging refracted rays collide.

All light rays can be followed backwards until they intersect to determine the image's location. The extended refracted beams' point of intersection, which appears to all observers to be the refracted rays' point of divergence, is the image point.

1/(-15) = 1/v + 1/(-45)

→ -1/15 = 1/v - 1/45

→ -1/15 + 1/45 = 1/v

→ (-3 + 1)/45 = 1/v

→ -2/45 = 1/v

→ -45/2 = v

→ 53.3 cm = v

Therefore, 53.3cm will be the focal length of converging lens.

Answer:

Explanation:

Since the crime scene is located in a wooded area, I would request several more investigators to do a search of the area. These investigators have to spread out to do a line pattern search. While looking for evidence, I would first determine whether the body was moved. I would look for marks on the ground that would suggest that the body was dragged to where it was found. I would collect fingerprint evidence from the water bottle to determine if it was the victim’s or if another person was with the victim. I would also take samples from the clothing to determine if there is any trace evidence, such as hair, foreign fibers, or skin cells. I would collect several rocks from the area, including one with blood on it, as evidence. They would help me determine if the blood-covered rock had been moved, or if it had been used as a weapon.

recall that a centripetal force is not a new type of force: it's a role that is taken by one of the four types of force that we already use. if we see an object moving in a curved path, we know that at least one of those forces is pointing inward, acting centripetally. describe at least one real-life example of an object moving in a curved path where its centripetal force is provided at least partially by each of the following types of forces: gravity, normal force, tension,

Answers

Answer:

Answer in explanation.

Explanation:

GRAVITY AS CENTRIPETAL FORCE:

When a satellite orbits around a planet, it is in a circular motion. In this scenario, the centripetal force is provided by the gravity force.

NORMAL FORCE AS CENTRIPETAL FORCE:

When a spacecraft is sent into space, it rotates about its own axis to create artificial gravity. During this rotating motion, the centripetal force is provided by the normal reaction (force) of the walls of the satellite.

TENSION AS CENTRIPETAL FORCE:

When a mass attached to a rope is swirled in a circular motion, the tension in rope acts as the centripetal force.

Baggage on the floor of the baggage car of a high-speed train is not prevented from moving other than by friction. The train is travelling down a 5 percent grade when it decreases its speed at a constant rate from 144 mi/h to 66 mi/h in a time interval of 12 s. Determine the smallest allowable value of the coefficient of static friction between a trunk and the floor of the baggage car if the trunk is not to slide.

Answers

Answer:

 μ = 0.36

Explanation:

This exercise must be solved in parts

Let's start by finding the acceleration of the train, using the kinematics relations

         v = v₀ - a t

         a = [tex]\frac{v - v_o}{t}[/tex]

let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

         v = 66 mi / h (5280 ft / 1mile) (1h / 3600s) = 96.8 ft / s

         v₀ = 144 mi / h = 211.2 ft / s

let's calculate

          a = [tex]\frac{96.8 - 211.2}{12}[/tex]

          a = - 9.53 ft / s²

Now we can use Newton's second law, for this let's set a reference system with the x axis parallel to the slope of the hill

let's break down the weight

            sin 5 = Wₓ / W

            cos 5 = W_y / W

            Wₓ = W sin 5

            W_y = W cos 5

Y axis

     N- W_y = 0

     N = W cos 5

   

X axis

      Wₓ -fr = m a

       mg sin 5 - fr = ma

the friction force has the expression

       fr = μ N

       fr = μ W cos 5

we substitute

        mg sin 5 - μ mg cos 5 = ma

        g sin 5 - μ g cos 5 = a

        μ = [tex]\frac{g \ sin 5 -a }{g \ cos 5}[/tex]

        μ =  [tex]tan 5 - \frac{a}{ g \ cos 5}[/tex]

let's calculate

       μ = tan 5 - (-9.53) / 32 cos 5

       μ = 0.08749 + 0.2733

       μ = 0.36

Answers

Answer:

5.71 N/m

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Extention (e) = 3.5 m

Force (F) = 20 N

Spring constant (K) =?

From Hooke's law,

F = Ke

Where :

F => is the force applied

e => is the extention caused by the force

K => is the spring constant

With the above formula, we can obtain the spring constant of the spring as follow:

Extention (e) = 3.5 m

Force (F) = 20 N

Spring constant (K) =?

F = Ke

20 = K × 3.5

Divide both side by 3.5

K = 20 / 3.5

K = 5.71 N/m

Thus, the spring constant of the spring is 5.71 N/m

Suppose a mad scientist went back in time to the beginning of the solar system and caused the newly formed Mars and Venus to switch places. So now there is a Venus-sized planet where Mars was (let's call it Venus 2), and a Mars-sized planet where Venus was (let's call it Mars 2). How would these hypothetical new planets, Mars 2 and Venus 2, turn out in this alternate time line

Answers

Answer:

Mars2   illuminated side of the planet is very  heat, dark side very cool

Venus 2 a warm planet with a constant temperature across the entire surface

Explanation:

For this hypothetical case, when changing the planets they are changed with their current characteristics.

Case of Mars2

In this case, there is a planet with a very thin atmosphere, so the solar radiation reaches the ground without damping it, causing a lot of noise, so the illuminated side of the planet is very heat and when the dark side turns due to the little atmosphere it loses everything the heat for which it is very cold.

This thermal stress between the two sides of the planet continues constantly creating possible fruit trees in its rocky systems.

Case of Venus 2

The planet has a high atmospheric density, but it is very far from the sun, so the amount of radiation that arrives slightly warms the planet, but due to the thin atmosphere the losses for the dark period are very small, so the entire planet it is heated until it reaches an almost uniform temperature over its entire surface.

In this case we have a warm planet with a constant temperature across the entire surface, regardless of which side is lit.

An ice cube in a glass of water is pushed to the bottom of the glass and held there with a straw. Consequently, the buoyant force on the ice cube is now a. the same as when the cube was floating at the top. b. exactly balanced by the weight of the ice cube. c. exactly balanced by the force exerted by the straw. d. greater than when the cube was floating at the top.

Answers

Answer:d

Explanation:

Given

Initially, the ice cube is floating over the water

When the cube is pressed to touch the bottom, it is submerged fully

Therefore more buoyant force is acting on it

At first, a part of the volume is submerged in the water, so the buoyant force is less, but as the entire cube is immersed in the water, the buoyant force increases.

A. 2400 J
B. 1200 J
C. 200 J
D. 800J​

Answers

Answer:

1200 J

Explanation:

From the question

K.E = 1/2mv²...................... Equation 1

Where K.E = Kinetic Energy, m = mass of the rod, v = velocity of the rod

But

V = ωr..................... Equation 2

Where   ω = angular velocity of the rod, r = radius of the rod.

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

K.E = 1/2m(ωr)²..................... Equation 3

Given: m = 60 kg,  ω = 10 rad/s, r = 2 m

Substitute these values into equation  3

K.E = 1/2(6)(10×2)²

K.E = 3×(20)²

K.E = 3×400

K.E = 1200 J

Explanation:

A 3.0-kg and a 1.0-kg box rest side-by-side on a smooth, level floor. A horizontal force of 32 N is applied to the 1.0-kg box pushing it against the 3.0-kg box, and, as a result, both boxes slide along the floor. How hard do the two boxes push against each other

Answers

Considering both boxes as one body, it would have a total mass of 4.0 kg. By Newton's second law, the 32 N force applies an acceleration a such that

F = 32 N = (4.0 kg) a   →   a = 8.0 m/s²

and both boxes share this acceleration. (There is no friction, so the given force is the only one involved in the direction of the boxes' motion.)

Now consider just the smaller box. It is feeling the effect of the 32 N push in one direction and, as it comes into contact with the larger box, a normal force that points in the opposite direction. Let n be the magnitude of this normal force; this is what you want to find. By Newton's second law,

F = 32 N - n = (1.0 kg) (8.0 m/s²)

n = 32 N - 8.0 N

n = 24 N

Just to make sure that this is consistent: by Newton's third law, the larger box feels the same force but pointing in the opposite direction. On the smaller box, n opposes the pushing force, so points backward. So from the larger box's perspective, n acts on it in the forward direction. This is the only force acting on the larger box, so Newton's second law gives

F = 24 N = (3.0 kg) (8.0 m/s²)

Earth’s surface is broken into large pieces that are slowly shifting. This gradual process, known as plate tectonics, accounts for movement of entire continents over time. During the past century, geologists have found multiple lines of evidence that support the theory of plate tectonics, including the mechanism that drives the plates’ motion—sea floor spreading. As a result, sections of Earth’s crust are constantly being pulled apart or pushed together. This movement creates many of Earth’s landforms, such as mountains, rift valleys, and volcanoes.

According to the theory of plate tectonics, 250 million years ago all of Earth’s landmasses were clustered into one supercontinent, known as Pangea. Based on the past and current movements of Earth’s plates, predict how the location of the continents might shift during the next 250 million years. Do you think they’ll spread out, cluster together, or move in a combination of the two? What types of landforms do you anticipate forming as a result? What effect, if any, do you anticipate this movement will have on life on Earth?

Answers

Answer:

Earth's surface is broken into large pieces that are slowly shifting. ... This movement creates many of Earth's landforms, such as mountains, rift valleys, and volcanoes. According to the theory of plate tectonics, 250 million years ago all of Earth's landmasses were clustered into one supercontinent, known as Pangea.

or

Presently the plates are moving towards each other and will eventually merge into one landmass once again. Presently Africa I moving towards Europe and Asia and will merge with that landmass, closing the Mediterranean Sea. When plates move towards each other extensive fold mountain ranges will form; a modern day example is the Himalayan mountain range. This type of movement will impact ocean currents as we know it and bring about a dramatic change in the climate. Disruption of currents and the closure of some water ways and oceans will lead to the extinction of some species. Leaving only those who are able to adapt to the new climatic conditions.

Explanation:

you can choose either one

Answer:

Based on what I have learned this year and past knowledge, I think they will move in a combination of two. The tectonic plates move around the planet but move very slowly, only a few centimeters per year, which plays a big part in the picture. If you look at California, It's splitting! But who is to say that the continents will not cluster to another land as it spreads out. There's also not enough space on earth for every piece of land. But when they do end up clustered together, mountains will be formed, and if they spread out, faults will be created. So I think in 250 million years we will have another supercontinent like Pangea. I also believe that there will be many new geographical changes, including volcanoes, more mountains, and deeper oceans. This will also cause new Invasive species and the destruction of man-made buildings.
