Answer:

C.

Explanation:

A meter is 8.56 centimeters longer than a yard. Something to keep in mind is that a meter is about 10% longer than a yard.

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

C. 8.56cm

Explanation:

Since we are to get the difference of cord length in centimeter, there fore we will have to convert the one yard and one metre length of wires to centimeters.

For 1m length of cord

1m = 100cm

For 1yard length of cord

1yard = 91.44cm

Difference in cord length = 100cm - 91.44cm

= 8.56cm

A planet exerts a gravitational force of magnitude 9e22 N on a star. If the planet were 2 times closer to the star (that is, if
Dmitrij [34]

To solve this problem we will use the related concepts in Newtonian laws that describe the force of gravitational attraction. We will use the given value and then we will obtain the proportion of the new force depending on the Radius. From there we will observe how much the force of attraction increases in the new distance.

Planet gravitational force

F_p = 6*10^{22}N

F_p = \frac{GMm}{R^2}

F_p = 9*10^{22}N

Distance between planet and star

r = \frac{R}{2}

Gravitational force is

F = \frac{GMm}{r^2}

Applying the new distance,

F = \frac{GMm}{(\frac{R}{2})^2}

F =  4\frac{GMm}{R^2}

Replacing with the previous force,

F = 4F_p

Replacing our values

F= 4(9*10^{22}N)

F = 36*10^{22}N

Therefore the magnitude of the force on the star due to the planet is  36*10^{22}N

Example 4.6 provides a nice example of the overlap between kinematics and dynamics. It is known that the plane accelerates from
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

ax = 2.60m/s^{2}, t = 26.92s

Explanation:

The acceleration of the plane can be determined by means of the kinematic equation that correspond to a Uniformly Accelerated Rectilinear Motion.

(vx)f^{2} = (vx)i^{2} + 2ax \Lambda x (1)

Where (vx)f^{2} is the final velocity, (vx)i^{2} is the initial velocity, ax is the acceleration and  \Lambda x is the distance traveled.

Equation (1) can be rewritten in terms of ax:

(vx)f^{2} - (vx)i^{2} = 2ax \Lambda x

2ax \Lambda x = (vx)f^{2} - (vx)i^{2}

ax = \frac{(vx)f^{2} - (vx)i^{2}}{2 \Lambda x}  (2)

Since the plane starts from rest, its initial velocity will be zero ((vx) = 0):

Replacing the values given in equation 2, it is gotten:

ax = \frac{(70m/s)^{2} - (0m/s)^{2}}{2(940m)}

ax = \frac{4900m/s}{2(940m)}

ax = \frac{4900m/s}{1880m}

ax = 2.60m/s^{2}

So, The acceleration of the plane is 2.60m/s^{2}    

Now that the acceleration is known, the next equation can be used to find out the time:

(vx)f = (vx)i + axt (3)

Rewritten equation (3) in terms of t:

t = \frac{(vx)f - (vx)i}{ax}

t = \frac{70m/s - 0m/s}{2.60m/s^{2}}

t = 26.92s

<u>Hence, the plane takes 26.92 seconds to reach its take-off speed.</u>

What is a disadvantage of using nuclear power to produce electricity?
lesya [120]

Answer:

The further implementations of nuclear power are limited because although nuclear energy does not produce CO2 the way fossil fuels do, there is still a toxic byproduct produced from uranium-fueled nuclear cycles: radioactive fission waste.
