Summarize Newton’s First Law

Physics

Tamiku [17]3 years ago
8 0
Newton's first law is "An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force."

Basically it means an object won't move unless something moves it, and an object won't stop moving unless something stops it.

A molecular motor moves along a microtubule track in steps of 100 Å displacements. The motor hydrolyzes one molecule of ATP per
fredd [130]

Answer: F= 10⁻¹¹ N

Explanation:

We are given that a molecular motor moves in steps of 100  Å.

The energy change for ATP hydrolysis is –60 kJ•mol⁻¹

Now we have to find the maximum resistive force against which motor can move cargo.

So the force will be equal to the energy value divided by the distance in meters.

F= \frac{-60}{100*10^{-10} } = −6000000000

Ignoring the minus sign.

And for one molecule of ATP per step, the value is divided by Avogadro's number.

F= \frac{6000000000}{6.02*10^{23} }

F= 10⁻¹¹ N

A plane flying horizontally at an altitude of 1 mi and a speed of 560 mi/h passes directly over a radar station. Find the rate a
natulia [17]

Given:

altitude, x = 1 mile

speed, v = 560 mi/h

distance from the station, x = 4 mi

Solution:

To find the rate,

\frac{dx}{dt} = 0

Now, from the right angle triangle in fig 1.

Applying pythagoras theorem:

h^{2}=x^{2} + y^{2}

differentiating the above eqn w.r.t 't' :

2h\frac{dh}{dt} = 2x\frac{dx}{dt} + 2y\frac{dy}{dt}                  (1)

Now, putting values in eqn (1):

2h\frac{dh}{dt} = 2\times 1\times 0 + 2y\frac{dy}{dt}

\frac{dh}{dt} = \frac{y}{h}\frac{dy}{dt}

\frac{dh}{dt} = \frac{560}{4}\frac{dy}{dt}

\frac{dh}{dt} = \frac{560}{4}\frac{dy}{dt}

\frac{dh}{dt} = 140\sqrt{4^2 - 1}

The rate at which distance from plane to station is increasing is:

\frac{dh}{dt} = 542.22 mph

allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

amplitude

Explanation:

wave is a called the crest, and the low point is called the trough. For longitudinal waves, the compressions and rarefactions are analogous to the crests and troughs of transverse waves. The distance between successive crests or troughs is called the wavelength. The height of a wave is the amplitude.…
