How fast would the International Space Station (ISS) have to travel to maintain a circular orbit a distance of 1400 km above the

professor190 [17]

Answer:

The International Space Station move at 7.22 km/s.

Explanation:

Orbital speed of satellite is given by $v=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}$ , where G is gravitational constant, M is mass of Earth and r is the distance to satellite from centre of Earth.

r = R + h = 6350 + 1400 = 7750 km = 7.75 x 10⁶ m

G = 6.673 x 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²

M = 5.98 x 10²⁴ kg

Substituting

$v=\sqrt{\frac{6.673\times 10^{-11}\times 5.98\times 10^{24}}{7.75\times 10^6}}=7223.86m/s=7.22km/s$

The International Space Station move at 7.22 km/s.

A person consumes a snack containing 14 food calories (14kcal). what is the power this food produces if it is to be "burned off"

Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

B) 2.7W

Explanation:

Converting Cal to Joule

1 cal = 4.186J

14 kcal = 14 x 1000 x 4.186

= 58604 J

Converting hour to seconds

6 hours = 6 x 60 x 60 seconds

= 21600 seconds

Power is the time rate of doing work.

Power = Work/Time

P = (58604) / (21600)

P = 2.7W

A crate rests on a flatbed truck which is initially traveling at 17.9 m/s on a level road. The driver applies the brakes and the

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

The minimum coefficient of friction required is 0.35.

Explanation:

The minimum coefficient of friction required to keep the crate from sliding can be found as follows:

$-F_{f} + F = 0$

$-F_{f} + ma = 0$

$\mu mg = ma$

$\mu = \frac{a}{g}$

Where:

μ: is the coefficient of friction

m: is the mass of the crate

g: is the gravity

a: is the acceleration of the truck

The acceleration of the truck can be found by using the following equation:

$v_{f}^{2} = v_{0}^{2} + 2ad$

$a = \frac{v_{f}^{2} - v_{0}^{2}}{2d}$

Where:

d: is the distance traveled = 46.1 m

$v_{f}$ : is the final speed of the truck = 0 (it stops)

$v_{0}$ : is the initial speed of the truck = 17.9 m/s

$a = \frac{-(17.9 m/s)^{2}}{2*46.1 m} = -3.48 m/s^{2}$

If we take the reference system on the crate, the force will be positive since the crate will feel the movement in the positive direction.

$\mu = \frac{a}{g}$

$\mu = \frac{3.48 m/s^{2}}{9.81 m/s^{2}}$

$\mu = 0.35$

Therefore, the minimum coefficient of friction required is 0.35.

I hope it helps you!

A particle (charge = +0.8 mC) moving in a region where only electric forces act on it has a kinetic energy of 6.7 J at point A.

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the particle as it moves through point B is 7.9 J.

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of the particle is:

$\Delta K = \Delta E_{p} = q\Delta V$

<u>Where</u>:

K: is the kinetic energy

$E_{p}$ : is the potential energy

q: is the particle's charge = 0.8 mC

ΔV: is the electric potential = 1.5 kV

$\Delta K = q \Delta V= 0.8 \cdot 10^{-3} C*1.5 \cdot 10^{3} V = 1.2 J$

Now, the kinetic energy of the particle as it moves through point B is:

$\Delta K = K_{f} - K_{i}$

$K_{f} = \Delta K + K_{i} = 1.2 J + 6.7 J = 7.9 J$

Therefore, the kinetic energy of the particle as it moves through point B is 7.9 J.

I hope it helps you!

You lift a 50 N object 2 meters off the ground what work did you do on the object

mixer [17]

Work equals force × displacement (distance between initial point and end point is displacement)
if u follow this it becomes
work = 50 × 2 which is equal to 100

comment if u have more questions
