The pilot is correct because of gravity

The pilot might be correct (I think), because, if the gravity of the planet is strong, then the planet’s gravity will pull the spaceship into its orbit, so the engines don’t need to be on for the ship to get pushed toward the planet.

An object with a mass of m = 3.85 kg is suspended at rest between the ceiling and the floor by two thin vertical ropes.

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

The tension in the upper rope is determined as 50.53 N.

<h3>Tension in the upper rope</h3>

The tension in the upper rope is calculated as follows;

T(u) = T(d)+ mg

where;

T(u) is tension in upper rope
T(d) is tension in lower rope

T(u) = 12.8 N + 3.85(9.8)

T(u) = 50.53 N

Thus, the tension in the upper rope is determined as 50.53 N.

How much water can be held by a cylindrical tank with a radius of 12 feet and a height of 30 feet? A. 2,260.8 cubic feet B. 13,5

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

Volume, V = 13564.8 cubic feet

Explanation:

It is given that,

Radius of the cylindrical tank, r = 12 feet

Height of the tank, h = 30 feet

We need to find the water that can be held by a cylindrical tank i.e. we need to find the volume of the tank. It is given by :

$V=\pi\times r^2\times h$

$V=3.14\times (12)^2\times 30$

V = 13564.8 cubic feet

So, the water held by the tank is 13564.8 cubic feet. Hence, this is the required solution.

You hear a sound in the distance. Suddenly the sound gets deeper, decreasing in pitch. Which can you assume about the sound wave

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

A. The wavelengths of the new sound waves are longer

Explanation:

This is the Doppler effect which can be best illustraded for the case of a siren of an ambulance approaching us having a greater frequency and getting lower in frequency and deeper as the ambulance passes us.

Since the wavelength is inversely proportional to the frequency it follows the wavelengths are longer when the frequency decreases lowering its pitch and getting deeper.

A 5 newton force and a 7 newton force act concurrently on a point. As the angle between the forces is increased from 0 to 180 th

Reika [66]

Answer:

The magnitude of the resultant decreases from A+B to A-B

Explanation:

The magnitude of the resultant of two vectors is given by

$R=\sqrt{A^2 +B^2 +2AB cos \theta}$

where

A is the magnitude of the first vector

B is the magnitude of the second vector

$\theta$ is the angle between the directions of the two vectors

In the formula, A and B are constant, so the behaviour depends only on the function $cos \theta$ . The value of $cos \theta$ are:

- 1 (maximum) when the angle is 0, so the magnitude of the resultant in this case is

$R=\sqrt{A^2 +B^2+2AB}=\sqrt{(A+B)^2}=A+B$

- then it decreases, until it becomes 0 when the angle is 90 degrees, where the magnitude of the resultant is

$R=\sqrt{A^2 +B^2+0}=\sqrt{A^2+B^2}$

- then it becomes negative, and continues to decrease, until it reaches a value of -1 when the angle is 180 degrees, and the magnitude of the resultant is

$R=\sqrt{A^2 +B^2-2AB}=\sqrt{(A-B)^2}=A-B$
