Ahmed kept a balloon from his birthday for several days until it began to deflate and slowly sink to the ground. He wondered how

the balloon was losing its ability to float. He decided to use his Physical Science textbook to get more answers.
What chapter should Ahmed read to learn more about how things function or behave?

Laws
Theories
Hypotheses
Observations

Six artificial satellites circle a space station at constant speed. The mass m of each satellite, distance L from the space stat

nikklg [1K]

Answers:

a) $T_{2}>T_{5}>T_{1}>T_{3}=T_{6}>T_{4}$

b) $a_{4}>a_{6}>a_{1}>a_{3}>a_{5}>a_{2}$

Explanation:

a) Since we are told the satellites circle the space station at constant speed, we can assume they follow a uniform circular motion and their tangential speeds $V$ are given by:

$V=\omega L=\frac{2\pi}{T} L$ (1)

Where:

$\omega$ is the angular frequency

$L$ is the radius of the orbit of each satellite

$T$ is the period of the orbit of each satellite

Isolating $T$ :

$T=\frac{2 \pi L}{V}$ (2)

Applying this equation to each satellite:

$T_{1}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{1}}=261.79 s$ (3)

$T_{2}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{2}}=1570.79 s$ (4)

$T_{3}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{3}}=196.349 s$ (5)

$T_{4}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{4}}=98.174 s$ (6)

$T_{5}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{5}}=785.398 s$ (7)

$T_{6}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{6}}=196.349 s$ (8)

Ordering this periods from largest to smallest:

$T_{2}>T_{5}>T_{1}>T_{3}=T_{6}>T_{4}$

b) Acceleration $a$ is defined as the variation of velocity in time:

$a=\frac{V}{T}$ (9)

Applying this equation to each satellite:

$a_{1}=\frac{V_{1}}{T_{1}}=0.458 m/s^{2}$ (10)

$a_{2}=\frac{V_{2}}{T_{2}}=0.0254 m/s^{2}$ (11)

$a_{3}=\frac{V_{3}}{T_{3}}=0.4074 m/s^{2}$ (12)

$a_{4}=\frac{V_{4}}{T_{4}}=1.629 m/s^{2}$ (13)

$a_{5}=\frac{V_{5}}{T_{5}}=0.101 m/s^{2}$ (14)

$a_{6}=\frac{V_{6}}{T_{6}}=0.814 m/s^{2}$ (15)

Ordering this acceerations from largest to smallest:

$a_{4}>a_{6}>a_{1}>a_{3}>a_{5}>a_{2}$

A car is running at the speed of 45km/hr see a child 25 meter ahead and suddenly apllies a brakes. If the retradation of the car

kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

The car stops in 7.78s and does not spare the child.

Explanation:

In order to know if the car stops before the distance to the child, you take into account the following equation:

$x=x_o+v_ot-\frac{1}{2}at^2$ (1)

vo: initial speed of the car = 45km/h

a: deceleration of the car = 2 m/s^2

t: time

xo: initial distance to the child = 25m

x: final distance to the child = 0m

It is necessary that the solution of the equation (1) for time t are real.

You first convert the initial speed to m/s, then replace the values of the parameters and solve the quadratic polynomial for t:

$45\frac{km}{h}*\frac{1h}{3600s}*\frac{1000m}{1km}=12.5\frac{m}{s}$

$0=25+12.5t-2t^2\\\\2t^2-12.5t-25=0\\\\t_{1,2}=\frac{-(-12.5)\pm \sqrt{(-12.5)^2-4(2)(-25)}}{2(2)}\\\\t_{1,2}=\frac{12.25\pm 18.87}{4}\\\\t_1=7.78s\\\\t_2=-1.65s$

You take the first value t1 because it has physical meaning.

The solution for t is real, then, the car stops in 7.78s and does not spare the child.

a 252,000j of heat energy is required to heat 2kg water. if (CH2O=42000j/kgk.what is change in temperature ?

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

theres an decrease in temperature because 252,000 is more than 42,000. so its colder and not as hot as 252,000.
