Answer:

1) v = 7.70 10³ m/s , 2) F = 115 N and 3)    (F/W)% = 90.2%

Explanation:

1) To solve the problem let's use Newton's second law where force is gravitational force and acceleration is centripetal

    F = ma.

    F = G m M / r²

    a = v² / r

    G m M / r² = m v² / r

    G M / r = v²

Let's look for the distance is the distance from the surface of the has to the station 345 103 m plus the radius of the Earth

    r = Re + 345 103

    r = 6.37 10⁶ + 3.45 10⁵

    r = 6.715 10⁶ m

Let's calculate the speed

   v = √ (6.67 10⁻¹¹ 5.98 10²⁴ / 6,715 10⁶) = √ (59,399 10⁶)

   v = 7.70 10³ m/s

The speed module is constant, so we can use the uniform motion relationships

   v = d / t

The distance is the length of the circle

   d = 2π r

   d = 2π 6.715 106

   d = 42.2 10⁶ m

Let's calculate the time

   t = d / v

   t = 42.2 10⁶ / 7.70 10³

   t = 5.48 10³ s

2) Let's use the universal gravitation equation

   F = G m M / r²

   F = 6.67 10⁻¹¹ 13.0  5.98 10²⁴ /(6.715 10⁶)²

   F = 11.5 10¹ N

   F = 115 N

3) in this for we are asked the relationship is out with the weight of the body on earth

   F / W = F / mg

   F / W = 115 / (13.0  9.8)

   F / W = 0.902

  F / W% = 90.2%

7. A thin wire was wound 30 times closely over a boiling tube. The total length of the windings as measured was found to be 6.3m
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

Diameter of wire = 0.00021 meters

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Number of windings = 30

Length of windings = 6.3 mm to meters = 0.0063 meters

To find the diameter of the wire, we would use this mathematical expression;

Length of windings = number of windings * diameter of wire

Substituting the values into the expression, we have;

0.0063 = 30 * diameter of wire

Diameter of wire = 0.0063/30

Diameter of wire = 0.00021 meters

What is the mass of a skier if they are applying a force of 500N and they are accelerating at 20m/s2?
Brrunno [24]

▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪  {\huge\mathfrak{Answer}}▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪

We know that,

  • force = mass \times acceleration

  • 500 = m \times 20

  • m =  \dfrac{500}{20}

  • m = 25

Mass of skier is <u>25</u> kg

What is the cause of the falling surface temperatures of the Pacific Ocean?
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

The primary cause of rising SST levels worldwide is climate warming due to excessive amounts of greenhouse gases being released into the atmosphere. Heat from the warming atmosphere raises the temperature of the sea surface. ... Water expands as it warms and the increased volume causes sea level rise.

Explanation:

I think so, sorry if wrong
