What homemade things could I use for wheels on a small balloon powered car?

Fantom [35]

You can use mostly anything as long as it is circular. Depending on how big it is, you could use sturdy paper plates and use a stick/rod and tape to hold it together, or you could use bottle caps if the car you are trying to make is really small.

A maple tree seed fell 180 centimeters straight toward the ground at a constant velocity. It moved that distance in 1.5seconds.

denis23 [38]

Answer: 1.2 m/s

Explanation:

Velocity $V$ is defined as the variation of position of an object or body in time. So, if we know the distance the seed traveled and the time, we can calculate its velocity:

$V=\frac{d}{t}$

Where:

$d=180 cm \frac{1 m}{100 cm}=1.8 m$ is the distance the maple seed traveled

$t=1.5 s$ is the time

Then:

$V=\frac{1.8 m}{1.5 s}$

$V=1.2 m/s$ This is the seed's velocity

A planet's moon travels in an approximately circular orbit of radius 7.0 ✕ 10⁷ m with a period of 6 h 38 min. Calculate the mass

natka813 [3]

Answer:

3.56×10²⁶ Kg.

Explanation:

Note: The gravitational force is acting as the centripetal force.

Fg = Fc........................... Equation 1

Where Fg = gravitational Force, Fc = centripetal force.

Recall,

Fg = GMm/r²......................... Equation 2

Fc = mv²/r............................. Equation 3

Where M = mass of the planet, m = mass of the moon, r = radius of the orbit and G = Universal gravitational constant.

Substituting equation 2 and 3 into equation 1

GMm/r² = mv²/r

Simplifying the equation above,

M = v²r/G .............................. Equation 4.

The period of the moon in the orbit

T = 2πr/v

Making v the subject of the equation,

v = 2πr/T............................. Equation 5

where r = 7.0×10⁷ m, T = 6 h 38 min = (6×3600 + 38×60) s = (21600+2280) s

T = 23880 s, π = 3.14

v = (2×3.14×7.0×10⁷ )/23880

v = 18409 m/s

Also Given: G = 6.67×10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²

Also substituting into equation 4

M = 18409²×7.0×10⁷ /(6.67×10⁻¹¹)

M = 3.56×10²⁶ Kg.

Thus the mass of the planet = 3.56×10²⁶ Kg.

Explanation:

This is a problem of momentum (

Choose the appropriate description for an electron.

DedPeter [7]

Answer:negative charge, small relative mass, and found outside the nucleus

Explanation:

The electron is one of the subatomic particles. It is negatively charged and has a relatively small or somewhat negligible mass. It is found outside the nucleus on the orbits. The electron is bound to the nucleus by electrostatic forces of attraction in the Bohr's model of the atom.
