Answer:

The eccentricity of an elliptical orbit is defined by the ratio e = c/a, where c is the distance from the center of the ellipse to either focus. The range for eccentricity is 0 ≤ e < 1 for an ellipse; the circle is a special case with e = 0.

n astronaut who weighs 800 N on the surface of the earth lifts off from planet Zuton in a space ship. The free-fall acceleration
ANTONII [103]

Answer: 0.29 kN

Explanation:

We have the following data:

W_{E}=800 N is the weight of the astronaut on Earth

g_{E}=9.8 m/s^{2} is the free fall acceleration due gravity on Earth (directed downwards)

g_{Z}=3 m/s^{2} is the free fall acceleration due gravity on Zuton (directed downwards)

a=0.5 m/s^{2} is the acceleration of the spaceship at litoff (directed upwards)

We have to find the <u>magnitude of the force</u> F the space ship exerts on the astronaut.

Firstly, we have to know weight has a direct relation with the mass and the acceleration due gravity. In the case of Earth is:

W_{E}=mg_{E} (1)

Where m is the mass of the atronaut.

Isolating m:

m=\frac{W_{E}}{g_{E}} (2)

m=\frac{800 N}{9.8 m/s^{2}} (3)

m=81.63 kg (4)

Now that we know the mass of the astronaut, we can find its weight on Zuton:

W_{Z}=mg_{Z} (5)

W_{Z}=(81.63 kg)(3 m/s^{2}) (6)

W_{Z}=244.89 N (7)

Then, we can calculate the force the space ship exerts on the astronaut by the following equation:

F-W_{Z}=m.a (8)

Isolating F:

F=m.a+W_{Z} (9)

F=(81.63 kg)(0.5 m/s^{2})+244.89 N (10)

F=285.7 N \frac{1 kN}{1000 N}=0.285 kN (11)

Finally:

F=0.285 kN \approx 0.29 kN

In the opposite figure, the work done by the force F to push the box upwards from the ground to the top of the inclined plane is
goldfiish [28.3K]

In the opposite figure, the work done by the force F to push the box upwards from the ground to the top of the inclined plane is 600 J.Option c is correct.

<h3>What is work done?</h3>

Work done is defined as the product of applied force and the distance through which the body is displaced on which the force is applied.

The displacement value from the triangle is;

\rm sin 30^0 = \frac{P}{H} \\\\ H=S =\frac{3 \ m}{sin 30^0} \\\\ S = 6\ m

The work done is found as ;

\rm W= Fd \\\\ W = 100  \ N \times 6 \\\\ W= 600 \ J

The force F in the opposing figure does 600 J of effort to lift the box from the ground to the top of the inclined plane.

Hence option c is correct.

To learn more about the work done refer to the link;

Raphael refers to a wave by noting its wavelength. lucinda refers to a wave by noting its frequency. which student is correct an
blsea [12.9K]
They are both right because you can note both things, I mean Raphael and Lucinda, both has a right statement or explanation about the wave. Wave by nothing is both for its wavelength and for its frequency. So Raphael and Lucinda are both correct because you can note both wavelength and frequency.

The law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed. What does “conservation” mean in this
kirill [66]
Conservation means to improve something to prevent loss or decay
That's why energy can't be created or destroyed
