How long does it take for the speed of light and sound to travel around the world

Physics

-- Light travels straight, not around in a circle. But if it did, it would cover
a distance equal to the length of the equator in about <em>0.13 second</em>.

-- At the speed of sound (in air at standard temperature and pressure),
it would take about <em>32.6 hours </em>to cover the same distance.

What type of motor operates at a constant steady-state speed regardless of the load?
LekaFEV [45]
The type of motor that allows for constant speed regardless of load are called Geared Speed Control motors. This type of motor has a tachometer feedback device attached at the rear of the motor that gives constant feedback to the speed controller giving the advantage of constant speed regardless of load. The tachometer allows for varied frequency delivery to the motor to maintain pre-set output speed.

An airplane travels 80 m/s as it makes a horizontal circular turn which has a 0.80-km radius. What is the magnitude of the resul
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer: 600N

Explanation:

Centripetal force is the force that causes a body to move in a circular path.

Centripetal force = MV²/r

M = 75kg v = 80m/s r = 0.80km = 800m

Substituting the values given in the formula;

F = 75 × 80²/800

F = 600N

The magnitude of the resultant force on the 75kg pilot is 600N.

action and reaction are equal in magnitude and opposite direction then why they don't balance each other
Harrizon [31]
Action and reaction are equal in magnitude and opposite direction by they don't balance each other because they don't occur on the same body. Action is involved on one body and reaction is involved on another body.

What is the change in velocity of a 22-kg object that experiences a force of 15 N for
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

Force = mass × acceleration

Acceleration:

{ \tt{15 = (22 \times a)}} \\ { \tt{a =  \frac{15}{22}  \:  {ms}^{ - 2} }}

From first Newton's equation of motion:

{ \bf{v = u + at}}

Change = v - u:

{ \tt{v - u = (a \times t)}} \\ { \tt{v - u = ( \frac{15}{22} \times 1.2) }} \\ { \tt{v - u = 0.82 \:  {ms}^{ - 2} }}
