Is it possible for an object at rest to have forces acting upon it? Explain

Physics
1 answer:
daser333 [38]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Yeah

Explanation:

I mean, how about gravity for example! When you draw a free-body diagram, you will almost always have to include gravity. How about normal force, or static friction? There are defintely forces at hand.

The international space station makes 15.65 revolutions per day in its orbit around the earth. assuming a circular orbit, how hi
sweet-ann [11.9K]
<span>373.2 km The formula for velocity at any point within an orbit is v = sqrt(mu(2/r - 1/a)) where v = velocity mu = standard gravitational parameter (GM) r = radius satellite currently at a = semi-major axis Since the orbit is assumed to be circular, the equation is simplified to v = sqrt(mu/r) The value of mu for earth is 3.986004419 Ă— 10^14 m^3/s^2 Now we need to figure out how many seconds one orbit of the space station takes. So 86400 / 15.65 = 5520.767 seconds And the distance the space station travels is 2 pi r, and since velocity is distance divided by time, we get the following as the station's velocity 2 pi r / 5520.767 Finally, combining all that gets us the following equality v = 2 pi r / 5520.767 v = sqrt(mu/r) mu = 3.986004419 Ă— 10^14 m^3/s^2 2 pi r / 5520.767 s = sqrt(3.986004419 * 10^14 m^3/s^2 / r) Square both sides 1.29527 * 10^-6 r^2 s^2 = 3.986004419 * 10^14 m^3/s^2 / r Multiply both sides by r 1.29527 * 10^-6 r^3 s^2 = 3.986004419 * 10^14 m^3/s^2 Divide both sides by 1.29527 * 10^-6 s^2 r^3 = 3.0773498781296 * 10^20 m^3 Take the cube root of both sides r = 6751375.945 m Since we actually want how far from the surface of the earth the space station is, we now subtract the radius of the earth from the radius of the orbit. For this problem, I'll be using the equatorial radius. So 6751375.945 m - 6378137.0 m = 373238.945 m Converting to kilometers and rounding to 4 significant figures gives 373.2 km</span>

ANALOGY, Metal ions: buoys, as electrons: _____.
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

a. water

Explanation:

A buoy is a floating object that is used in the sea to locate some point or as a checkpoint. It stays at its designated position in the sea by means of an anchor chain. This chain is made short in length according to the water depth do the buoy can not deviate much from its position. The same mechanism can be applied to the metal ion. When a metal ion is formed it remains at its place, but the electrons are mobile and they travel when they get a medium. For example in circuits or from one atom to other. And for the case of buoy, the water serves as electrons as the water is moving in the medium. Hence, the second analogy will be:

electrons : water

So, the correct option is:

<u>a. water</u>

What will happen to the force between 2 charged objects if the mass of one of the charges is doubled and the distance between th
bekas [8.4K]

The size of the force varies inversely as the square of the distance between the two charges. Therefore, if the distance between the two charges is doubled, the attraction or repulsion becomes weaker, decreasing to one-fourth of the original value

A 5.67-kg block of wood is attached to a spring with a spring constant of 150 N/m. The block is free to slide on a horizontal fr
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

v=0.94 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

M= 5.67 kg

k= 150 N/m

m=1 kg

μ = 0.45

The maximum acceleration of upper block can be μ g.

 a= μ g                          ( g = 10 m/s²)

The maximum acceleration of system will ω²X.

ω = natural frequency

X=maximum displacement

For top stop slipping

μ g  =ω²X

We know for spring mass system natural frequency given as

\omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{M+m}}

By putting the values

\omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{150}{5.67+1}}

ω = 4.47 rad/s

μ g  =ω²X

By putting the values

0.45 x 10 = 4.47² X

X = 0.2 m

From energy conservation

\dfrac{1}{2}kX^2=\dfrac{1}{2}(m+M)v^2

kX^2=(m+M)v^2

150 x 0.2²=6.67 v²

v=0.94 m/s

This is the maximum speed of system.
