The magnitude of the tidal force between the International Space Station (ISS) and a nearby astronaut on a spacewalk is approxim

ately
2GmMa/r3 . In this expression, M is the mass of the Earth, r=6.79×106m is the distance from the center of the Earth to the orbit of the ISS, m=135kg is the mass of the astronaut, and a=13m is the distance from the astronaut to the center of mass of the ISS. Calculate the magnitude of the tidal force for this astronaut. This force tends to separate the astronaut from the ISS if the astronaut is located along the line that connects the center of the Earth with the center of mass of the ISS.

Answer:

F = 4.47 10⁻⁶ N

Explanation:

The expression they give for the strength of the tide is

      F = 2 G m M a / r³

Where G has a value of 6.67 10⁻¹¹ N m² / kg² and M which is the mass of the Earth is worth 5.98 10²⁴ kg

They ask us to perform the calculation

      F = 2 6.67 10⁻¹¹ 135  5.98 10²⁴ 13 / (6.79 10⁶)³

      F = 4.47 10⁻⁶ N

This force is directed in the single line at the astronaut's mass centers and the space station

To practice tactics box 5.2 working with objects in contact. a 1200-kg car pushes a 2100-kg truck that has a dead battery to the
Reptile [31]

Mass of the car = 1200 kg

Mass of the truck = 2100 kg

Total mass of car and truck = 2100 + 1200 = 3300 kg

Since, the car pushes the truck. Hence, they will move together and will have same acceleration.

Let the acceleration be a.

According to Newton's second law:

F(net) = ma

F = 4500 N

4500 = 3300 × a

a = \frac{4500}{3300}

a = 1.36 m/s^2

Let the force applied by the car on truck be F.

F = F(net) on the truck

F = ma

F = 2100 × 1.36

F = 2856 N

Hence, the force applied by the car on the truck is 2856 N

A 3.5 kW drill transfers 5 000 kJ of kinetic energy during 15 seconds of use. What is the percentage efficiency of the drill?
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

1.04%

Explanation:

Given that,

The power of drill = 3.5 kW = 3500 W

Transferred kinetic energy = 5000 kJ during 15 seconds of use.

We need to find the percentage efficiency of the drill. It can be given by :

\eta=\dfrac{P_o}{P_i}\times 100

Where

Po and Pi are output and input powers.

P_o=\dfrac{5000\times 10^3}{15}\\\\=3.34\times 10^5\ W

So,

\eta=\dfrac{3500}{3.34\times10^{5}}\times100\\\\=1.04\%

So, the percentage efficiency of the drill is 1.04%.

erica [24]

Answer:

The minimum angular speed 57.0 rad/s

Explanation:

In this exercise we must use the relationships between the angular and linear magnitudes, for the speeds we have

      v = w r

 

As they give us that linear velocity is constant, we will calculate the angular velocity for the two radii, external and internal

     r1 = 11.75 cm (1 m / 100cm) = 0.1175 m

    w1 = v / r1

    w1 = 6.70 / 0.1175

    w1 = 57.0 rd / s

    R2 = 4.50 cm = 0.0450 m

    w2 = 6.70 / 0.0450

   w2 = 148 rad / s

The minimum angular speed 57.0 rad / s
