Answer:

Gravity is the only force acting on a satellite.

Circular orbits result from the interaction between gravity and inertia.

Gravity provides the centripetal force for satellites.

Satellites are in free fall around Earth or other central objects.

Explanation:

Due to gravity, which acts as a centripetal force, the satellite remains in orbit, otherwise the straight motion generated by inertia would take it out of course. If the satellite moves very fast, it will leave the orbit towards the depths of space. On the other hand, if it moves very slowly, gravity will bring it directly to Earth. When the balance between gravity and inertia is achieved, the satellite is still in free fall, but at a very small rate.

Three strings, attached to the sides of a rectangular frame, are tied together by a knot as shown in the figure. The magnitude o

Anna [14]

The magnitude of the tension in the string marked A is 52.5N

Generally, the equation for is mathematically given as

Let's take θ be an angle at A

So, tanθ = 3/8

Let's take α be an angle at B (Below X)

tanα = 5/4

Let's take β be an angle at C (Below x)

tanβ = 1/6

First we take the Horizontal Components

74.9cos(9.46°) = Acos(20.6°) + Bcos(51.3°)

By solving the equation, we get

A = 78.9 - 0.668B … (1)

Now, we take the vertical components

74.9sin(9.46°) + Asin(20.6°) = Bsin(51.3°)

By solving the equation, we get

40.07 = 1.015B

B = 39.5N

By substituting the value of B in equation (1)

A = 78.9 - 0.6668× 39.5

A = 52.5N

Hence, the magnitude of the tension in the string marked A is 52.5N

A ball is dropped from a building taking 3sec to fall to the ground. Calculate:

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Vf = 29.4 m/s

h = 44.1 m

Explanation:

Data:

Initial Velocity (Vo) = 0 m/s
Gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Time (t) = 3 s
Final Velocity (Vf) = ?
Height (h) = ?

==================================================================

Final Velocity

Use formula:

Vf = g * t

Replace:

Vf = 9.8 m/s² * 3s

Multiply:

Vf = 29.4 m/s

==================================================================

Height

Use formula:

$\boxed{h=\frac{g*(t)^{2}}{2}}$

Replace:

$\boxed{h=\frac{9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}*(3s)^{2}}{2}}$

Multiply time squared:

$\boxed{h=\frac{9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}*9s^{2}}{2}}$

Simplify the s², and multiply in the numerator:

$\boxed{h=\frac{88.2m}{2}}$

It divides:

$\boxed{h=44.1\ m}$

What is the velocity when falling to the ground?

The final velocity is 29.4 meters per seconds.

How high is the building?

The height of the building is 44.1 meters.

Cual es la rapidez media de un guepardo que recorre 100 metros en 4 segundos? ¿Y si recorre 50 m en 2 s?

Maru [420]

Answer:

La rapidez media es 25 m/s en ambos casos.

Explanation:

Podemos definir como rapidez media al cociente entre la distancia total recorrida y el tiempo que se tardó en recorrer dicha distancia.

Así tenemos:

Rapidez media = Distancia/tiempo.

Entonces si el guepardo recorre 100m en 4 segundos, su rapidez media es:

Rapidez media = 100m/4s = 25 m/s

En el caso de que el guepardo recorre 50 metros en 2 segundos, su rapidez media será:

rapidez media = 50m/2s = 25m/s

Es el mismo resultado, pues recorrió la mitad de distancia en la mitad de tiempo.

A train travels a distance of 2000 km at an average speed of 120 km per hour. How long did the trip take? SHOW WORK

Igoryamba

S = d/t, s = 120, d = 2000, t = ?
Input the values,
120 = 2000/t
Make t the subject of the formula by cross multiplying, Therefore,
120t = 2000
Divide both sides by 120
t = 16.7hrs to 1 decimal place.
If you're asked to convert it, you can.
