Answer:
1.6675×10^-16N
Explanation:
The force of gravity that the space shuttle experiences is expressed as;
g = GM/r²
G is the gravitational constant
M is the mass = 1.0 x 10^5 kg
r is the altitude = 200km = 200,000m
Substitute into the formula
g = 6.67×10^-11 × 1.0×10^5/(2×10^5)²
g = 6.67×10^-6/4×10^10
g = 1.6675×10^{-6-10}
g = 1.6675×10^-16N
Hence the force of gravity experienced by the shuttle is 1.6675×10^-16N
Answer:
(a) 7.72×10⁵ J
(b) 4000 J
(c) 1.82×10⁻¹⁶ J
Explanation:
Kinetic Energy: This can be defined energy of a body due to its motion. The expression for kinetic energy is given as,
Ek = 1/2mv²................... Equation 1
Where Ek = Kinetic energy, m = mass, v = velocity
(a)
For a moving automobile,
Ek = 1/2mv².
Given: m = 2.0×10³ kg, v = 100 km/h = 100(1000/3600) m/s = 27.78 m/s
Substitute into equation 1
Ek = 1/2(2.0×10³)(27.78²)
Ek = 7.72×10⁵ J
(b)
For a sprinting runner,
Given: m = 80 kg, v = 10 m/s
Substitute into equation 1 above,
Ek = 1/2(80)(10²)
Ek = 40(100)
Ek = 4000 J
(c)
For a moving electron,
Given: m = 9.10×10⁻³¹ kg, v = 2.0×10⁷ m/s
Substitute into equation 1 above,
Ek = 1/2(9.10×10⁻³¹)(2.0×10⁷)²
Ek = 1.82×10⁻¹⁶ J
Answer:
The momentum would be doubled
Explanation:
The magnitude of the momentum of the freight train is given by:
where
m is the mass of the train
v is its speed
In this problem, we have that the speed of the train is unchanged, while the mass of the train is doubled:
therefore, the new momentum is
so, the momentum has also doubled.
Answer: Instantaneous speed.
Explanation:
Answer:
D
Explanation:
For this kind of problem, forces add. F = F1 + F2
F1 = 6 N
F2 = 10 N
F = 6N + 10N
F = 16N
