Determine the approximate force (N) used to pull a sled up a 400 m hill using 1900 J of work.
1 answer:
The work done to pull the sled up to the hill is given by
where
F is the intensity of the force
d is the distance where the force is applied.
In our problem, the work done is
and the distance through which the force is applied is 
, so we can calculate the average force by re-arranging the previous equation and by using these data:
where
F is the intensity of the force
d is the distance where the force is applied.
In our problem, the work done is

Answer:
The correct option is;
Still constant
Explanation:
The relative refractive index ₁n₂ between the two medium can be as follows;
Therefore, given that the speed of light in medium 1 is constant and the speed of light on medium 2 is also constant, the relative refractive index ₁n₂ = c₁/c₂ is always constant.
Answer:
a) the one with a lower orbit b) the one with a higher orbit
Explanation:
Let's consider orbital mechanics. To get an object in orbit, we need it to fall to earth parallel to the earth's surface. To understand it easily imagine a projectile thrown horizontally further and further away, at one point, the projectile hits the cannon from behind. Considering there is no wind resistance, that would be a projecile in orbit.
In other words, the circular orbits of some objects around a massive body are due to the equality between centrifugal acceleration and gravity acceleration.
.
so the velocity is
where "G" is the gravitational constant, "M" the mass of the massive body and "r" the distance between the object and the center of gravity of mass M. As you can note, if "r" increase, "v" decrease.
The orbital period of any object in orbit is
where "a" is length of semi-major axis (a = r in circular orbits). So if "r" increase, "T" increase.
