The answer is C : 7.68 × 10 3 m/s

8.7 m/s2 = (5.98 * 10 to the 24th power) - this is the mass of earth * (6.67 * 10 to the -11 power) - this is the gravitational constant / v squared = ans (6.77 * 10 to the 6th power

Then do v squared divided by 6.77 * 10 to the 6th power when you calculate it would be 7.68 × 10 3 m/s

The force between two charged bodies is called ______________.
stepladder [879]

The Coulomb force between two or more charged bodies is the force between them due to Coulomb's law. If the particles are both positively or negatively charged, the force is repulsive; if they are of opposite charge, it is attractive. ... Like the gravitational force, the Coulomb force is an inverse square law.

A plane has an airspeed of 142 m/s. A 30.0 m/s wind is blowing southward at the same time as the plane is flying. What must be t
const2013 [10]

Answer:

\theta=12.19^{\circ}

Explanation:

Given that

The speed of the airplane ,v= 142 m/s

The speed of the air ,u = 30 m/s

Lets take angle make by airplane from east direction towards north direction is θ .

Now by using diagram ,we can say that

sin\theta =\dfrac{u}{v}

Now by putting the values in the above equation we get

sin\theta =\dfrac{30}{142}

sin\theta=0.21

\theta=12.19^{\circ}

Therefore the angle will be 12.19° .

On an unknown planet in the outer-reaches of the solar system, a pendulum with a 12 g bob and a string length of 4 m oscillates
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

The acceleration due to gravity (g) on this planet is 39.44 m/s²

<h3>What is solar system?</h3>

Solar system consists of all the planets and the most importantly the center of the solar system is Sun.

Given is an unknown planet in the outer-reaches of the solar system, a pendulum with a 12 g bob and a string length of 4 m oscillates with a period of 2 seconds.

The time period of the pendulum is

T = 2π √l/g

Squaring both sides, we get

l/g = T² / 4π²

g = 4π²l/ T²

Substitute Time period T = 2s and  length l = 4m,  we get

g = 4π²x 4/ 2²

g =39.44 m/s²

Thus, the acceleration due to gravity on this planet is 39.44 m/s²

A boat is traveling at an initial velocity of 2.7 meters per second in the positive direction. It accelerates at a rate of 0.15
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 4.5 \ m/s \ in \ the  \ positive \ direction}}

Explanation:

We are asked to find the final velocity of the boat.

We are given the initial velocity, acceleration, and time. Therefore, we will use the following kinematic equation.

v_f= v_i + at

The initial velocity is 2.7 meters per second. The acceleration is 0.15 meters per second squared. The time is 12 seconds.

  • v_i= 2.7 m/s
  • a= 0.15 m/s²
  • t= 12 s

Substitute the values into the formula.

v_f = 2.7 \ m/s + (0.15 \ m/s^2)(12 \ s)

Multiply the numbers in parentheses.

v_f= 2.7 \ m/s + (0.15 \ m/s/s * 12 \ s)

v_f = 2.7 \ m/s + (0.15 \ m/s *12)

\v_f=2.7 \ m/s + (1.8 \ m/s)v_f=2.7 \ m/s + (1.8 \ m/s)

Add.

v_f=4.5 \ m/s

The final velocity of the boat is <u>4.5 meters per second in the positive direction.</u>

eduard
We can't tell without more information. We know it will be higher than 40 and lower than 75, but we don't know exactly where it will settle. In order to work that out, we would need to know the volumes of the water and the cube, and WHAT metal the cube is made of.
