A particle is located on the x axis 4.9 m from the origin. A force of 38 N, directed 30° above the x axis in the x-y plane, acts

on the particle. What is the torque about the origin on the particle? Round your answer to the nearest whole number. Use a minus sign to indicate a negative direction and no sign to indicate a positive direction.

Answer:

Torque is 93 Nm anticlockwise.

Explanation:

We have value of torque is cross product of position vector and force vector.

A force of 38 N, directed 30° above the x axis in the x-y plane.

        Force, F = 38 cos 30 i + 38 sin 30 j = 32.91 i + 19 j

A particle is located on the x axis 4.9 m and we have to find torque about the origin on the particle.

Position vector, r = 4.9 i

Torque, T = r x F = 4.9 i x (32.91 i + 19 j) = 4.9 x 19 k = 93.1 k Nm

So Torque is 93 Nm anticlockwise.

A child in a boat throws a 6-kg package horizontally to the right with a speed of 8 m/s.
victus00 [196]

Answer:

0.5 m/s

Explanation:

Using conservation of momentum, P1=P2, the system starts off with zero momentum as nothing is moving. But in the second part of the equation(P2) the child throws the package to the right. By Newton's third law, the child and the boat should move to the left. Plugging in what we know, 0= -90v + 6kg*8m/s. Solving for v you will get 0.5 meters per second. The mass is 90kg as that the is mass of the child and boat combined. I also made it negative as the boat and child move left (I designated this as the negative direction) and the package's momentum is positive as it is moving to the right.

Imagine a star very similar to our own Sun in both size and mass. This star moves very slightly back and forth in the sky once e
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

(c) The planet must have a mass about the same as the mass of Jupiter,

(d) The planet must be closer to the star than Earth is to the Sun.

Explanation:

Astrometry is the ideal method to detect high-mass planets that are close to their star. That is because the gravitational effect that it will have the planet over its host star will be greater. This effect can be seen as a wobble in the star as a consequence of how they orbit a common center of mass¹. The center of mass will be closer to the most massive object, So, in the case of an extrasolar planet with masses like Jupiter (Jovian), this point will be a little bit farther from the star, making the wobble more notable than in a system with a low-mass planet.          

Key terms:

Astrometry: study of the position of the stars over time in the sky.

¹Center of mass: a geometrical point in which the mass from a whole system is summed.

A plane is travelling at 250km/h and must reach a target that is 3h 58min away. The distance to the target is. *
wariber [46]

Answer:

B) 89500 km

Explanation:

speed = distance / time

time= 3h 58 min = 30+58/60= 30.966 h = 31 hrs (approxx)

250= distance / 31

250× 31= distance

distance = 7750 ( approxx)

but none of the given options is 7750 km so we will choose the answer nearest to it,

therefore 89500km is the right answer
