Answer:

T = 8.55 N

Explanation:

When string makes an angle 40 degree with the vertical then it will have two forces on it

1) gravitational force (mg)

2) Tension force in string (T)

now we know that net force towards the center of the path is known as centripetal force and it is given as

T - mg cos40 = F_c

T - (0.40\times 9.8)cos40 = \frac{mv^2}{L}

T = 3 + \frac{0.40\times 5^2}{1.8}

T = 3 + 5.55

T = 8.55 N

Which celestial body would have the strongest gravitational pull on a satellite orbiting 100 km above its surface?
8090 [49]
According to the Law of Universal Gravitation, the gravitational force is directly proportional to the mass, and inversely proportional to the distance. In this problem, let's assume the celestial bodies to be restricted to the planets and the Sun. Since the distance is specified, the other factor would be the mass. Among all the celestial bodies, the Sun is the most massive. So, the Sun would cause the strongest gravitational pull to the satellite.

The total yearly world consumption of energy is approximately 4.0 × 1020 J. How much mass would have to be completely converted
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

m = 4.4 × 10³ kg

Explanation:

Given that:

The total yearly energy is 4.0 × 10²⁰ J

The amount of mass that provides this energy can be determined by using the formula:

E = mc²

where;

c = speed of light in free space = (3 × 10⁸)

4.0 × 10²⁰ = m × (3 × 10⁸)²

m = \dfrac{4.0 \times 10^{20} }{(3\times 10^8)^2}

m = 4.4 × 10³ kg

If gravity between the Sun and Earth suddenly vanished, Earth would continue moving in
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

Earth would continue moving by uniform motion, with constant velocity, in a straight line

Explanation:

The question can be answered by using Newton's first law of motion, also known as law of inertia, which states that:

"an object keeps its state of rest or of uniform motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an external net force different from zero"

This means that if there are no forces acting on an object, the object stays at rest (if it was not moving previously) or it continues moving with same velocity (if it was already moving) in a straight line.

In this problem, the Earth is initially moving around the Sun, with a certain tangential velocity v. When the Sun disappears, the force of gravity that was keeping the Earth in circular motion disappears too: therefore, there are no more forces acting on the Earth, and so by the 1st law of Newton, the Earth will continue moving with same velocity v in a straight line.
