Answer:

886 seconds

Explanation:

The circumference of the cross section of sphere of radius 6,783 km is the distance the space station has to cover for a complete orbit. The international space station orbits at about 7.66km/s. The time taken is given by distance/speed. Time taken=6783/7.66;

Evaluating gives 885.5 seconds or about 14.8 minutes.

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Explanation:

wave length of light λ = 502 nm

screen distance D = 1.2 m

width of one fringe = 10.2 mm / 20

= .51 mm

fringe width = λ D / a  , a is separation of slits

Puting the values given

.51 x 10⁻³ =  502 x 10⁻⁹ x 1.2 / a

a = 502 x 10⁻⁹ x 1.2 / .51 x 10⁻³

= 1181.17 x 10⁻⁶ m

1.18 x 10⁻³ m

= 1.18 mm .

Natalka [10]

Answer:

a) Tc = 750 [N]  ;b) See the explanation below.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we first need a graphical explanation of this, as well as knowing the corresponding questions. Therefore, a search was carried out in google, in the attached image we will find a graphical description of the problem.

b)

The solution of this type of problem corresponds to the use of Newton's third law, applying static which tells us that the sum of the forces in a system in equilibrium without movement must be equal to zero.

a)

In this way we can find by means of a sum of forces on the y axis equal to zero:

- 850 - 450 + 550 + Tc = 0

Tc = 750 [N]
