A certain light truck can go around a flat curve having a radius of 150 m with a maximum spee dof 32.0 m/s. With what maximum sp

Dvinal [7]

Answer

Maximum speed at 75 m radius will be 22.625 m /sec

Explanation:

We have given radius of the curve r = 150 m

Maximum speed $v_{max}=32m/sec$

Coefficient of friction $\mu =\frac{v_{max}^2}{rg}=\frac{32^2}{150\times 9.8}=0.6965$

Now new radius r = 75 m

So maximum speed at new radius $v_{max}=\sqrt{\mu rg}=\sqrt{0.6965\times 75\times 9.8}=22.625m/sec$

A 5,000 kg satellite is orbiting the Earth in a circular path. The height of the satellite above the surface of the Earth is 800

Arada [10]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

m = 5000 kg, h = 800 km = $0.8 \times 10^{6} m$

$R_{e} = 6.37 \times 10^{6} m$ , r = R + h = $7.17 \times 10^{6} m$

$M_{e} = 5.98 \times 10^{24}$ kg, G = $6.67 \times 10^{-11} Nm^{2}/kg^{2}$

As we know that,

$\frac{mv^{2}}{r} = \frac{GmM_{e}}{r^{2}}$

v = $\sqrt{\frac{GM_{e}}{r^{2}}}$

And, it is known that formula to calculate angular velocity is as follows.

$\omega = \frac{v}{r} = \sqrt{\frac{GM_{e}}{r^{3}}}$

v = $\sqrt{\frac{GM_{e}}{r^{3}}}$

= $\sqrt{\frac{6.67 \times 10^{-11} Nm^{2}/kg^{2} \times 5.98 \times 10^{-24} kg^{-2}}{(7.17 \times 10^{6} m)^{3}}}$

= $1.0402 \times 10^{-3} rad/s$

Thus, we can conclude that speed of the satellite is $1.0402 \times 10^{-3} rad/s$ .

Which statement about two objects having the same momentum is true?

Reil [10]

Answer:

The product of mass X velocity is the same for both

Explanation:

The momentum of a body is the product of its mass and velocity.

Momentum = mass x velocity

Two objects having equal momentum will have the same for the product of their mass and velocity.

It is amount of motion a body can produce.
