The moon's orbit around Earth

barxatty [35]3 years ago

Answer:

Revolution of moon around the earth

Explanation:

The revolution of moon around the earth.

The gravitational force acting on the moon is balanced by the centripetal force acting on the moon.

Gravitational force of earth on moon is given by

F = G \frac{M m}{r^{2}}

where, M be the mass of earth, m be the mass of moon and r be the distance between moon and earth.

The centripetal force acting on moon is

F = \frac{m v^{2}}{r}

These two forces balance each other and then the moon revolves around the earth in fixed orbit.

An engine performs 6400 j of work on a motorbike the motorbike and the rider have a combined mass of 200 kg if the bike started
spin [16.1K]

The work done by the engine is converted into kinetic energy of the motorbike+rider system:

W=K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

W=6400 J is the work

m=200 kg is the mass of the system

v is the speed acquired by the motorbike


Rearranging the equation and substituting the numbers in, we find

v=\sqrt{\frac{2W}{m}} =\sqrt{\frac{2(6400 J)}{200 kg}} =8 m/s

Please select the word from the list that best fits the definition site of sea-floor spreading
serious [3.7K]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Mid-ocean ridges

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • Sea-floor spreading is the process by which molten material adds new oceanic crust to the ocean floor.
  • Mid-ocean ridge is an undersea mountain chain where new ocean floor is produced at a divergent plate boundary.
  • Mid ocean ridge occurs when convection currents rise in the mantle beneath the oceanic crust and create magma where two tectonic plates meet at a divergent boundary.

The principle of work states that the ratio of work output to work input is always
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

work output is always less than work input - the ratio is less than 1.

Explanation:

This principle comes from the fact that a machine or system cannot produce more work than is supplied to it, because this would violate the energy conservation law (work is a type of mechanical energy).

In theoretical machines called "ideal machines" the input work is the same as the output work, but these machines are only theoretical because in real applications there is always some type of energy loss, either in heat produced by a machine or processes for its operation, for this reason the output work is always less than the input work.

Regarding the ratio work output to work input:

\frac{WO}{WI} < 1

because work input WI is always greater than work output WO.
