Answer:

B. Decrease the plane’s speed and height

Explanation:

Decrease in speed of plane:

When the speed of the plane is decreased then initial velocity of the package will be lesser. As a result, final velocity will also be lesser because in this case final velocity depends upon the initial velocity.

Decrease in height:

According to law of conservation of energy:

Loss in potential energy = Gain in Kinetic energy  

                                 mgh = ½ mV^2

It means with the decrease in height less potential energy will be converted to kinetic energy. As package has constant mass so it will gain less velocity.

A car that experiences no frictional force is started and caused to move. For the car to continue in that motion, the gas pedal
Masteriza [31]

1) Answer D not at all

The car is not experiencing any frictional force so that implies that there is no force acting on the car once it starts motion. So, according law of inertia, the car will continue to move and no other force is required.

Friction force is the resistance force that opposes the motion of any object. It arises due to the contact of surfaces.

2) Answer C none

There is no force on any spaceship moving far from any planet. So, according to law of inertia the spacecraft will continue to move at same speed.

Law of inertia states that any object keeps in the state of motion or rest unless a non zero external force is applied on it.

A seesaw made of a plank of mass 10.0 kg and length 3.00 m is balanced on a fulcrum 1.00 m from one end of the plank. A 20.0-kg
lidiya [134]

Answer:

7.5 kg

Explanation:

We are given that

m_1=10 kg

Length of plank, l=3 m

Distance of fulcrum from one end of the plank=1 m

m_2=20 kg

We have to find the mass must be on the other end if the plank remains balanced.

Let m be the mass must be on the other end if the plank remains balanced.

In balance condition

20\times 1=10\times (1.5-1)+m\times (1.5+0.5)

20=10(0.5)+2m

20=5+2m

2m=20-5=15

\implies m=\frac{15}{2}

m=7.5 kg

Hence, mass 7.5 kg   must be on the other end if the plank remains balanced.

How far apart must two protons be if the electrical force acting on either one is equal to its weight on the earth's surface whe
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

G M m / R^2 = F   force of attraction for proton

K e^2 / r^2 = F     force of attraction between 2 protons

G M m / R^2 = K e^2 / r^2

r^2 = K e^2 R^2 / (G M m)

r^2 = 9E9 * (1.6E-19)^2 * (6.37E6)^2 / (6.67E-11 * 5.98E24 * 1.7E-27)

r^2 = 9 * 2.56 * 40.6 / (6.67 * 5.98 * 1.7) * 10^-19

r^2 = 1.38 * 10^-30

r = 1.17E-15 m
