In order for a space shuttle to leave Earth, it must produce a great amount of thrust. Its rocket boosters create this thrusting

force by burning great amounts of fuel. However, once in space, the shuttle needs very little fuel. It circles Earth while gravity pulls it toward Earth. What term describes the motion of the shuttle around Earth?

Answer:

Orbit

Explanation:

The term that describes motion of the shuttle around earth is called as<em> Orbit.</em>

The orbit is defined as a regular repeating path that object takes around another.

The shuttle circles around the earth at a constant distance from earth surface is because of earth gravity and forward motion of earth.

What will be the change in velocity of a 850kg car if a force of 50,000 N
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

29.412m/s

Explanation:

F=ma where F= force, m= mass, and a=acceleration

we also know that,

a = Δv / t where Δv = change in velocity and t = time

thus F = m ( Δv / t)

50000=850(\frac{v}{0.5})

\frac{50000}{1700}= Δv

29.412m/s=Δv

Two blocks with different temperatures had entropies of 10 J/K and 30 J/K before they were brought in contact. What can you say
True [87]

Answer:

a. Ssystem  > 40 J/K

Explanation:

Given that

The entropy of first block = 10 J/K

The entropy of second block = 30 J/K

When two bodies come into contact with each other, the entropy of the combined system will increase and the entropy sum remains unchanged: According to the Second law of thermodynamics.The entropy of the system will be greater than 40  J/K.

Therefore the answer is a.

Ssystem  > 40 J/K

Un avión vuela a 10000m de altura y otro a 33300 pies, si un pie equivale a 30.48cm ¿Cuál vuela a mayor altura?
user100 [1]

Answer:

Avion A (10000 meters).

Explanation:

Deje que la altura de los aviones sea A y B respectivamente.

Dados los siguientes datos;

Altura A = 10000 metros

Altura B = 33300 pies

Para encontrar el avión que voló más alto, tendríamos que hacer alguna conversión de unidades.

Conversión:

Metros a centímetros;

1 metro = 100 cm

10000 metros = 100 * 10000 = 1.000.000 centímetros.

Por lo tanto, la altura A en cm = 1,000,000 centímetros

Pies a centímetros;

1 pie = 30,48 centímetros

33300 pies = 33300 * 30,48 = 1014984 centímetros.

Por lo tanto, la altura B en cm = 1014984 centímetros.

De los cálculos anteriores, podemos deducir que el avión A voló más alto.
