2 answers:

Air pressure is the wi get of air molecules pressing down on the earth. The pressure of the air molecules changes as you move upward from sea level into the atmosphere, the highest pressure is at sea level where the density of the air molecules is the greatest.

The gravitational field is the Force divided by the mass

Call g the gravitational fiel, F the force exerted by the earth and m the mass of the telescope.

g = F / m

g=9.1x10^4 N / 1.1 x 10^4 kg = 8.27 N/kg

Note that the unit N/kg is equivalent to m/s^2

Calculate the percentage of an iceberg submerged beneath the surface of the ocean given that the density of ice is 916.3kg/m3 an

pogonyaev

Answer:

The percentage of an iceberg submerged beneath the surface of the ocean = 89.67%

Explanation:

Let V be the total volume of the iceberg

Let x be the volume of iceberg submerged

According to Archimedes principle,

weight of the iceberg = weight of the water displaced (that is, weight of x volume of water)

Weight of the iceberg = mg= ρ(iceberg) × V × g

Weight of water displaced = ρ(fluid) × x × g

We then have

ρ(iceberg) × V × g = ρ(fluid) × x × g

(x/V) = ρ(iceberg) ÷ ρ(fluid) = 916.3 ÷ 1021.9 = 0.8967 = 89.67%

Hope this Helps!!!!

Illustrate a body of mass 5.0kg pulled by horizontal force F . if the body accelerates 2.0ms² and experience a frictional force

Natasha2012 [34]

Explanation:

a. Net force is mass times acceleration (Newton's second law).

∑F = ma

∑F = (5.0 kg) (2.0 m/s²)

∑F = 10 N

b. The net force is the sum of the individual forces.

10 N = F − 5 N

F = 15 N

c. Friction force here is mgμ.

mgμ = 5 N

(5.0 kg) (10 m/s) μ = 5 N

μ = 0.1

You are at a train station, standing next to the train at the front of the first car. The train starts moving with constant acce

Aleksandr [31]

The time needed for the 7th car to pass is 13.2 s

Explanation:

The motion of the train is a uniformly accelerated motion, therefore we can use suvat equations.

We start by analzying the motion of the first car, by using the equation:

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

where

s is the distance covered by the first car in a time t, which corresponds to the length of one car

u = 0 is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t = 5.0 s is the time

The equation can be rewritten as

$a=\frac{2s}{t^2}=\frac{2L}{(5.0)^2}=0.08L[m/s^2]$

where L is the length of one car.

The same equation can be written considering the first 7 cars:

$7L = ut+\frac{1}{2}at'^2$

where

7L is the distance covered by the 7 cars

t' is the time needed

We still have

u = 0

And the acceleration is constant so it is

$a=0.08L$

Substituting into the equation, we can find t':

$7L = \frac{1}{2}(0.08L)t'^2\\7=0.04t'^2\\t'=\sqrt{\frac{7}{0.04}}=13.2 s$

In attachment the graph of the distance covered versus the time taken: since the motion is uniformly accelerated, the relationship between the two variables is quadratical.
