Answer:

I hope this answer is correct

Explanation:

The mechanical advantage of a machine is 4. Mechanical advantage MA is the ratio of output (generated by the machine) force to input (applied to the machine) force. So MA = 4 means that for example if you apply 100 N then your machine will multiply that force and generate 400 N.

As a planet's semimajor axis gets smaller, its speed will _______ and its period will _________ .

Rufina [12.5K]

Well first of all, a planet doesn't have a semimajor axis, although it's orbit does.

In an orbit with a smaller semimajor axis, the planet moves faster, and its orbital period is shorter.

That's why the International Space Station circles the Earth in less time than the Moon does.

A 3.00-kg model airplane has velocity components of 5.00 m/s due east and 8.00 m/s due north. What is the plane’s kinetic energy

GalinKa [24]

Answer:

Kinetic energy, E = 133.38 Joules

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the model airplane, m = 3 kg

Velocity component, v₁ = 5 m/s (due east)

Velocity component, v₂ = 8 m/s (due north)

Let v is the resultant of velocity. It is given by :

$v=\sqrt{v_1^2+v_2^2}$

$v=\sqrt{5^2+8^2}=9.43\ m/s$

Let E is the kinetic energy of the plane. It is given by :

$E=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

$E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 3\ kg\times (9.43\ m/s)^2$

E = 133.38 Joules

So, the kinetic energy of the plane is 133.38 Joules. Hence, this is the required solution.

We now have an algebraic expression with only one variable, which can be solved. Once we have that, we can plug it back into one

Len [333]

Answer:

A=1

B=-2

Explanation:

Part A and B of the question wasn't given, however, I attached the relevant parts to solve this question as follows.

From part B as attached, it shows that the right option is C which is

2A+3B=-4

Substituting B with 3A-5 then we form the second equation as shown

2A+3(3A-5)=-4

By simplifying the above equation, we obtain

2A+9A-15=-4

Re-arranging, then

11A=-4+15

Finally

11A=11

A=1

To obtain B, we already know that 3A-5 so substituting the value of A into the above then we obtain

B=3(1)-5=-2

Therefore, required values are 1 and -2

Neutron stars are extremely dense objects that are formed from the remnants of supernova explosions. Many rotate very rapidly. S

Alja [10]

Answer:

16294 rad/s

Explanation:

Given that

M(ns) = 2M(s), where

M(s) = 1.99*10^30 kg, so that

M(ns) = 3.98*10^30 kg

Again, R(ns) = 10 km

Using the law of gravitation, the force between the Neutron star and the sun is..

F = G.M(ns).M(s) / R²(ns), where

G = 6.67*10^-11, gravitational constant

Again, centripetal force of the neutron star is given as

F = M(ns).v² / R(ns)

Recall that v = wR(ns), so that

F = M(s).w².R(ns)

For a circular motion, it's been established that the centripetal force is equal to the gravitational force, hence

F = F

G.M(ns).M(s) / R²(ns) = M(s).w².R(ns)

Making W subject of formula, we have

w = √[{G.M(ns).M(s) / R²(ns)} / {M(s).R(ns)}]

w = √[{G.M(ns)} / {R³(ns)}]

w = √[(6.67*10^-11 * 3.98*10^30) / 10000³]

w = √[2.655*10^20 / 1*10^12]

w = √(2.655*10^8)

w = 16294 rad/s

A car is going 8 meters per second on an access road into a highway

TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

20.96 m/s^2 (or 21)

Explanation:

Using the formula (final velocity - initial velocity)/time = acceleration, we can plug in values and manipulate the problem to give us the answer.

At first, we know a car is going 8 m/s, that is its initial velocity.

Then, we know the acceleration, which is 1.8 m/s/s

We also know the time, 7.2 second.

Plugging all of these values in shows us that we need to solve for final velocity. We can do so by manipulating the formula.

(final velocity - initial velocity) = time * acceleration

final velocity = time*acceleration + initial velocity

After plugging the found values in, we get 20.96 m/s/s, or 21 m/s
