Distance measurements based on the speed of light; used for objects in space

Physics
1 answer:
Vika [28.1K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer : Yes, distance measurements based on the speed of light used for objects in space.

Explanation :  A light year is measurement  of distance  that light travel in a one year.

In a one year light travels 9460000000000 kilometer.

We know that, speed of light is 3\times10^{8}\ m/s

and  time is 31536000 seconds in 1 year

so, distance = speed of light X time

Now, the light year is 9.4608\times10^{15} meter

Example : The nearest star to earth is about 4.3 light year away.

Answer:

1) Can change the state of an object(rest to motion/ motion to rest):For example, pushing a heavy stone in order to move it. 2) May change the speed of an object if it is already moving. 4) May bring about a change in the shape of an object. For example, blowing air in balloon.

A large airplane typically has three sets of wheels: one at the front and two farther back, one on each side under the wings. Co
Tems11 [23]

(a) The force the ground exerts on each set of rear wheels when the plane is at rest on the runway is 0.743 MN.

(b) The force the ground exerts on the front set of wheels is 0.239 MN.

<h3>Center mass of the airplane</h3>

The concept of center mass of an object can be used to dtermine the mass distribution of the airplane along the line through the center.

<h3>Some assumptions</h3>
  • The wheels under the wind do not pass through the center line.
  • The position of the front wheel is constant and it is zero mark (origin).
  • The rear wheels are at 21.7 m mark

Position of the center mass of the plane is calculated as follows;

Let the position of the center mass, Xcm = y

the center mass is 3 m in front of rear wheels, that is

21.7 - y = 3

y = 21.7 - 3

y = 18.7 m

Xcm = 18.7 m

<h3>Mass of the plane at the position of the rear wheels</h3>

Let the mass of the plane at front wheels = M1

Let the mass of the plane at rear wheels = M2

X_{cm} = \frac{M_1x_1 + M_2x_2}{M_1 + M_2}

18.7 = \frac{M_1(0) + M_2(21.7)}{177000} \\\\3,309,900 = 21.7M_2\\\\M_2 = \frac{3,309,900}{21.7} \\\\M_2 = 152,529.95 \ kg

<h3>Force exerted by the ground on each rear wheel</h3>

There are two rear wheels, and the force exerted on each wheel due to mass of the airplane at this position is calculated as follows;

W = mg\\\\W_1 = W_2 = \frac{1}{2} (mg) = \frac{1}{2} (152,529.95 \times 9.8) = 743,396.76 \ N= 0.743 \ MN

<h3>Mass of the plane at the position of the front wheel</h3>

M1 + M2 = 177,000

M1 = 177,000 - M2

M1 = 177,000 - 152,529.95

M1 = 24,470.05 kg

<h3>Force exerted by the ground on the front wheel</h3>

W = mg

W = 24,470.05 x 9.8

W = 239,806.5 N = 0.239 MN

Mila [183]

We can substitute the given values into the equation for T, given the surrounding temperature T0 = 0, initial temperature T1 = 140, constant k = -0.0815, and time t = 15 minutes.

T = 0 + (140 - 0)e^(-0.0815*15) = 140e^(-1.2225) = 41.23°F

If two charged objects each have 2.5 C of charge on them and are located 100 m apart, how strong is the electrostatic force betw
LiRa [457]

Answer:

5.619×10⁶ N

Explanation:

Applying,

F = kqq'/r²................... Equation 1

Where F = electrostatic force between the charges, k = coulomb's constant, q = first charge, q' = second charge, r = distance btween the charges

From the questiion,

Given: q = 2.5 C, q' = 2.5 C, r = 100 m

Constant: 8.99×10⁹ Nm²/C²

Substitute these values into equation 1

F = (2.5×2.5×8.99×10⁹)/100²

F = 56.19×10⁵

F = 5.619×10⁶ N
