The moon is about 3.8 X 10^5 km from the earth. Show that its average orbital speed about earth is 1026 m/s

1 answer:

3 0

Orbital speed = orbital path distance/time period = 2*pi*r/T
T=27.3days*24*3600=2358720s
2*pi*3.8*10^8m/2358720s = 1020m/s

Hope this helps! Please rate if my answer helped you! Any questions please feel free to ask! Thank you so much!!

A uniform rod of length L is pivoted at L/4 from one end. It is pulled to one side through a very small angle and allowed to osc

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

T= 4.24sec

Explanation:

We are going to use the formula below to calculate.

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g} }$

Where T is period

L is length of rod

g is acceleration due to gravity = $9.8m/s^{2}$

From the problem, the rod is pivoted at 1/4L which means that three quarter of the rod was used for the oscillation. lets call this $L_{O}$

$L_{O} = 3/4 * 5.95m$

= 4.4625m

thus $T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L_{O} }{g} }$

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{4.4625 }{9.8} }$

T= 4.24sec

20 cm long 10 cm wide and 5 cm thick as a mass of 500 g determine the greatest pressure that can be exerted by block on the flat

uysha [10]

100000 Pascal

Explanation:

pressure= force/area

Max pressure= force/min area

so f=5

min area= 5×10^-5

5÷5*10^-5 = 100000pascal
