Answer: F = 19.2 N

Explanation: Given that the initial Force = 3.6N

The formula involved is

F = GMm/r^2

Substitute the force F

3.6 = GMm/r^2

If one of the masses is tripled and the distance between the masses is quadrupled. We have

3.6 = (G × 3Mm)/(4r)^2

Where G will be constant.

3.6 = 3GMm/16r^2

Separate the fraction of number

3.6 = 3/16 × GMm/r^2

Make GMm/r^2 the subject of formula

(3.6 × 16)/3 = GMm/r^2

19.2 = GMm/r^2

Therefore, the new force of attraction is 19.2 N

What type of front involves fast moving thunderstorms and severe weather?
Lapatulllka [165]
The answer is "Cold Front".

A cold front is characterized as the change zone where a cool air mass is supplanting a hotter air mass. Cold fronts for the most part move from northwest to southeast. The air behind a cold front is recognizably colder and drier than the air in front of it.

Railroad cars are loosely coupled so that there is a noticeable time delay from the time the first and last car is moved from re
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Without this slack, a locomotive might simply sit still and spin its wheels. The loose coupling enables a longer time for the entire train to gain momentum, requiring less force of the locomotive wheels against the track. In this way, the overall required impulse is broken into a series of smaller impulses. (This loose coupling can be very important for braking as well).

What linear speed must an earth satellite have to be in a circular orbit at an altitude of 159 km?
IgorLugansk [536]
Gravitational acceleration, g = GM/r^2. Additionally, for a satellite in a circular orbit, g = v^2/r

Where, G = Gravitational constant, M = Mass of earth, r = distance from the center of the earth to the satellite, v = linear speed of the satellite.

Equating the two expressions;
v^2/r = GM/r^2
v = Sqrt (GM/r);
But GM = Constant = 398600.5 km^3/sec^2
r = Altitude+Radius of the earth = 159+6371 = 6530 km

Substituting;
v = Sqrt (398600.5/6530) = 7.81 km/sec = 781 m/s

Finally, you are ready to answer the main question. Cheetahs, the fastest of the great cats, can reach 50.0 miles/hour in 2.22 s
muminat

Answer:

Acceleration = 10.06 m/s²

Explanation:

1 mile = 1.6093km

1609.3m = 1 mile

1 m = \frac{1}{1609} mile

50.0 miles/hour = \frac{50 * 1609.3}{60 * 60} m/s

                          = 22.35m/s

from equation

S = Ut + 1/2 at²

v = U + at

22.35 = 0 + a * 2.22

a = 22.35 ÷ 2.22

= 10.06 m/s²
