A 3.00 kg mass is traveling at an initial speed of 25.0 m/s. What is the

Nitella [24]

Answer:

The magnitude of the force required to bring the mass to rest is 15 N.

Explanation:

Given;

mass, m = 3 .00 kg

initial speed of the mass, u = 25 m/s

distance traveled by the mass, d = 62.5 m

The acceleration of the mass is given as;

v² = u² + 2ad

at the maximum distance of 62.5 m, the final velocity of the mass = 0

0 = u² + 2ad

-2ad = u²

-a = u²/2d

-a = (25)² / (2 x 62.5)

-a = 5

a = -5 m/s²

the magnitude of the acceleration = 5 m/s²

Apply Newton's second law of motion;

F = ma

F = 3 x 5

F = 15 N

Therefore, the magnitude of the force required to bring the mass to rest is 15 N.

During the first 6 years of its operation, the Hubble Space Telescope circled the Earth 37,000 times, for a total of 1,280,000,0

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

v = 384km/min

Explanation:

In order to calculate the speed of the Hubble space telescope, you first calculate the distance that Hubble travels for one orbit.

You know that 37000 times the orbit of Hubble are 1,280,000,000 km. Then, for one orbit you have:

$d=\frac{1,280,000,000km}{37,000}=34,594.59km$

You know that one orbit is completed by Hubble on 90 min. You use the following formula to calculate the speed:

$v=\frac{d}{t}=\frac{34,594.59km}{90min}=384.38\frac{km}{min}\approx384\frac{km}{min}$

hence, the speed of the Hubble is approximately 384km/min

A single-turn circular loop of radius 6 cm is to produce a field at its center that will just cancel the earth's field of magnit

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

The current is $I = 6.68 \ A$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The radius of the loop is $r = 6 \ cm = 0.06 \ m$

The earth's magnetic field is $B_e = 0.7G= 0.7 G * \frac{1*10^{-4} T}{1 G} = 0.7 *10^{-4} T$

The number of turns is $N =1$

Generally the magnetic field generated by the current in the loop is mathematically represented as

$B = \frac{\mu_o * N * I}{2 r }$

Now for the earth's magnetic field to be canceled out the magnetic field generated by the loop must be equal to the magnetic field out the earth

$B = B_e$

=> $B_e = \frac{\mu_o * N * I }{ 2 * r}$

Where $\mu$ is the permeability of free space with value $\mu _o = 4\pi * 10^{-7} N/A^2$

$0.7 *10^{-4}= \frac{ 4\pi * 10^{-7} * 1 * I}{2 * 0.06}$

=> $I = \frac{2 * 0.06 * 0.7 *10^{-4}}{ 4\pi * 10^{-7} * 1}$

$I = 6.68 \ A$

This is a change in the position of a body with respect to time relative to a reference point.

dusya [7]

Answer: MOTION

Explanation:

motion is defined as the displacement of an object with respect to time relative to a stationary object (reference point). A good example of an object that can serve as a reference point includes: a tree or a building. The movement of a body at constant speed towards a particular direction at regular intervals of time can be determined and it's called uniform motion.

There are different types of motion, these includes: simple harmonic motion,

linear motion,

circular motion,

Brownian motion,

Rotatory motion
