Newton’s first law says that a body will remain in a state of rest, or move in a straight line at a constant speed, unless it is

acted upon by an outside force. What is acting upon the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) to keep it in the curved path of its orbit around the Earth?

Answer:

Gravity

Explanation:

The Hubble is continually attracted to the earth due to the action of gravity. Therefore, it is thanks to gravity that the space telescope is kept in orbit. Without him, the direct motion generated by inertia would take him out of course. Gravity slows it down and keeps it in the curved path of its orbit around the Earth.

Josh starts his sled at the top of a 2.9-m-high hill that has a constant slope of 25∘. After reaching the bottom, he slides acro
algol13

Answer:

S=48.29 m

Explanation:

Given that the height of the hill h = 2.9 m

Coefficient of kinetic friction between his sled and the snow μ = 0.08

Let u be the speed of the skier at the bottom of the hill.

By applying conservation of energy at the top and bottom of the inclined plane we get.

Potential Energy=kinetic Energy

mgh = (1/2) mu²

u² = 2gh

u²=2(9.81)(2.9)

   =56.89

u=7.54 m/s

a = - f / m

a = - μ*m*g / m

a = - μg

From equation of motion

v²- u² = 2 -μ g S

v=0 m/s

-(7.54)²=-2(0.06)(9.81)S

S=48.29 m

The dimensions of aluminum foil in a box for sale in super markets are 66 2/3 yards by 12 inches. the mass of the foil is 0.83 k
disa [49]

Length of the sheet is given as

L = \frac{200}{3} yards = 6096 cm

width of the sheet is given as

w = 12 inches = 30.48 cm

now let say its thickness is "t"

so the volume of the sheet is given as

V = L*w*t

V = 6096*30.48* t

V = 185806.08*t cm^3

mass of the sheet is given as

m = 0.83 kg = 830 gram

now we have

density = \frac{mass}{volume}

2.70 = \frac{830}{185806.08*t}

by solving above we have

t = 1.65 * 10^{-3} cm

so the thickness of sheet will be above
