What will happen to the speed of an object if the net force is in the direction of the motion?

If all else stays the same, which would cause an increase in the gravitational force on a space shuttle?

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer: Decreasing the distance of the space shuttle from Earth .

Explanation:

According to expression of gravitational force:

$F=\frac{G\times m_1\times m_2}{r^2}$

G = gravitational constant

$m_1, m_2$ = masses of two objects

r = Distance between the two objects.

F = Gravitational force

From the above expression we can say that gravitational force is inversely proportional to squared of the distance between the two masses.

$F\propto \frac{1}{r^2}$

So, in order to increase the gravitational force on space shuttle distance between the space space shuttle must be decreased.

Hence, the correct answer 'decreasing the distance of the space shuttle from Earth '.

A 975-kg elevator accelerates upward at 0.754 m/s2, pulled by a cable of negligible mass. Find the tension force in the cable.

Zina [86]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts of equilibrium and Newton's second law.

According to the description given, it is under constant ascending acceleration, and the balance of the forces corresponding to the tension of the rope and the weight of the elevator must be equal to said acceleration. So

$\sum F = ma$

$T-mg = ma$

Here,

T = Tension

m = Mass

g = Gravitational Acceleration

a = Acceleration (upward)

Rearranging to find T,

$T = m(g+a)$

$T = (975)(9.8+0.754)$

$T= 10290.15N$

Therefore the tension force in the cable is 10290.15N

Between 1911 and 1990, the top of the leaning bell tower at Pisa, Italy, moved toward the south at an average rate of 1.2 mm/y.T

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

Angular speed, $\omega=6.90\times 10^{-13}\ rad/s$

Explanation:

It is given that,

The top of the leaning bell tower at Pisa, Italy, moved toward the south at an average rate of, v = 1.2 mm/yr

$1\ mm/yr=3.171\times 10^{-11}\ m/s$

Velocity, $v=3.80\times 10^{-11}\ m/s$

Height of the tower, h = 55 m

The height of the tower is equivalent to the radius. Let $\omega$ is the angular speed of the tower’s top about its base. The relation between the angular speed and the angular speed is given by :

$v=r\omega$

$\omega=\dfrac{v}{r}$

$\omega=\dfrac{3.80\times 10^{-11}\ m/s}{55\ m}$

$\omega=6.90\times 10^{-13}\ rad/s$

So, the average angular speed of the tower’s top about its base is $6.90\times 10^{-13}\ rad/s$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

Explain how the information from the stimuli is communicated to the brain.

irakobra [83]

Answer:

Answer:Neurons communicate through an electrochemical process. Sensory receptors interact with stimuli such as light, sound, temperature, and pain which is transformed into a code that is carried to the brain by a chain of neurons. Then systems of neurons in the brain interpret this information.
