Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) x (speed)²

At 7.5 m/s, the object's KE is (1/2) (7.5) (7.5)² = 210.9375 joules

At 11.5 m/s, the object's KE is (1/2) (7.5) (11.5)² = 495.9375 joules

The additional energy needed to speed the object up from 7.5 m/s
to 11.5 m/s is (495.9375 - 210.9375) = <em>285 joules</em>.

That energy has to come from somewhere. Without friction, that's exactly
the amount of work that must be done to the object in order to raise its
speed by that much.

A satellite of Mars, called Phobos, has an orbital radius of 9.4 ✕ 106 m and a period of 2.8 ✕ 104 s. Assuming the orbit is circ
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

6.27*10^{23}kg

Explanation:

assume

M= mass of Mars

m=mass of phobos

r=orbital radius

T=period

we can apply F=ma to this orbital motion (considering the cricular motion laws)

where,

F=\frac{GMm}{r^{2} }  and a=rω^2

where ω=\frac{2\pi }{T} and G is the universal gravitational constant.

G = 6.67 x 10-11 N m2 / kg2

F=ma\\\frac{GMm}{r^{2} }=mr(\frac{2\pi }{T} )^{2}\\  M=\frac{r^{3}}{G}  (\frac{2\pi }{T} )^{2}\\M=\frac{(9.4*10x^{6} )^{3}*(2\pi )^{2} }{(2.8*10^{4}) ^{2} *6.67*10^{-11} } \\M=6.27*10^{23}kg

According to Newton’s law of universal gravitation, which statement is true?
SIZIF [17.4K]

Option (a) is correct.

Falling objects accelerate as they approach the ground.This is because of the force of gravity acting on the falling objects. so the velocity of these objects increases continuously as they approach the ground. the acceleration acting on the falling objects is a constant ( close to the surface of earth) and is called as acceleration due to gravity denoted by g. value of g=9.8 m/s².

A node is a point on a standing wave that has no displacement from the rest position. At the nodes, _____.
Kitty [74]

Answer: (B) There is complete destructive interference between the incoming and reflected waves

Explanation:

For example, if you pluck a guitar the waves will travel back and forth. They consist of nodes and anti-nodes. It is created, when the wave traveling to one side and bounces of the other end and comes back. As it travels to the other side, it is reflected thus, comes back. So standing waves occurs when there is interference.

When the wave is produced, the points where the string is not moving are called nodes and where they are moving are called anti-nodes. The positions where nodes are produced, destructive interference occurs and where anti-nodes are produced, constructive interference occurs
