Answer:

8m/s^2

Explanation: Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity per unit of time.

Hence, mathematically

Acceleration = {Velocity(meters/second)}/ time(seconds)

This means that

{40(m/s)}/(5 sec)

=8m/s^2

Answer: 8 m/s2

Explanation: Acceleration is calculated by V1 - V2/ time. 40m/s - 0m/s divided by 5 s = 8 m/s2

A satellite that weighs 4900 N on the launchpad travels around the earth's equator in a circular orbit with a period of 1.667 h.
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

(a)F= 3.83 * 10^3 N

(b)Altitude=8.20 * 10^5 m

Explanation:

On the launchpad weight = gravitational force between earth and satellite.

W = GMm/R²

where R is the earth radius.

Re-arranging:

WR² / GM = m

m = 4900 * (6.3 * 10^6)² / (6.67 * 10^-11 * 5.97 * 10^24) = 488 kg

The centripetal force (Fc) needed to keep the satellite moving in a circular orbit of radius (r) is:

Fc = mω²r

where ω is the angular velocity in radians/second. The satellite completes 1 revolution, which is 2π radians, in 1.667 hours.

ω = 2π / (1.667 * 60 * 60) = 1.05 * 10^-3 rad/s

When the satellite is in orbit at a distance (r) from the CENTRE of the earth, Fc is provided by the gravitational force  between the earth and the satellite:

Fc = GMm/r²

mω²r = GMm / r²

ω²r = GM / r²

r³ = GM/ω² = (6.67 * 10^-11 * 5.97 * 10^24) / (1.05 * 10^-3)²  

r³ = 3.612 * 10^20

r = 7.12 * 10^6 m

(a) F = GMm/r²  

F=(6.67 * 10^-11 * 5.97 * 10^24 * 488) / (7.12 * 10^6 )²

F= 3.83 * 10^3 N

(b) Altitude = r - R = (7.12 * 10^6) - (6.3 * 10^6) = 8.20 * 10^5 m

A science teacher tells her class that their final project requires students to measure a specific variable and determine the ve
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

The velocity measured by Jennifer and Johnny is

v_m = 34.87 m/s

The actual velocity is

v=34.15 m/s

We can calculate the % error of the students measurement as follows:

Err = \frac{v_m - v}{v}\cdot 100 = \frac{34.87 m/s-34.15 m/s}{34.15 m/s}\cdot 100 =0.021 \cdot 100 = 2.1 \%

Which is lower than the 2.5% maximum error required, so the two students will pass the test.

C. is the answer. You can't use plastic because it does not conduct electricity and string does not conduct electricity either so the circuit will end before it get to the bulb.
