A space probe is orbiting a planet on a circular orbit of radius R and a speed v. The acceleration of the probe is a. Suppose ro

ckets on the probe are fired causing the probe to move to another circular orbit of radius 0.5R and speed 2v. What is the magnitude of the probe’s acceleration in the new orbit?

Answer:

acceleration in the new orbit is 8 time of acceleration of planet in old orbit

a_{new} = 8a.

Explanation:

given data:

radius of orbit = R

Speed pf planet = v

new radius = 0.5R

new speed = 2v

we know that acce;ration is given as

a = \frac{v^{2}}{R},

a_{new} =\frac{(2v)^{2}}{0.5R},

           = \frac{4v^{2}}{0.5R}

          = \frac{8 v^{2}}{R}

a_{new} = 8a.

acceleration in the new orbit is 8 time of acceleration of planet in old orbit

The kinetic energy of an object with a mass of 6.8 kg and a velocity of 5.0 m/s is J. (Report the answer to two significant figu
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

\boxed{\sf Kinetic \ energy \ (KE) = 85 \ J}

Given:

Mass (m) = 6.8 kg

Speed (v) = 5.0 m/s

To Find:

Kinetic energy (KE)

Explanation:

Formula:

\boxed{ \bold{\sf KE =  \frac{1}{2} m {v}^{2} }}

Substituting values of m & v in the equation:

\sf \implies KE =  \frac{1}{2}  \times 6.8 \times  {5}^{2}

\sf \implies KE = \frac{1}{ \cancel{2}}  \times  \cancel{2} \times 3.4 \times 25

\sf \implies KE =3.4 \times 25

\sf \implies KE = 85 \: J

Describe each class of lever and explain to characteristics of each
Nataly [62]

-- Class I lever

The fulcrum is between the effort and the load.

The Mechanical Advantage can be anything, more or less than 1 .

Example:  a see-saw

-- Class II lever

The load is between the fulcrum and the effort.

The Mechanical Advantage is always greater than 1 .

Example:  a nut-cracker, a garlic press

-- Class III lever

The effort is between the fulcrum and the load.

The Mechanical Advantage is always less than 1 .

I can't think of an example right now.
