The space shuttle orbits 310 km above the surface of the Earth.

Physics
1 answer:
MAVERICK [17]3 years ago

Answer:

44.7 N

Explanation:

The gravitational force between the objects is given by:

F=G\frac{mM}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

m and M are the masses of the two objects

r is the distance between the centres of the two objects

In this problem, we have:

m=5.0 kg is the mass of the sphere

M=5.98\cdot 10^{24} kg is the Earth's mass

R=6370 km is the Earth's radius, while h=310 km is the altitude of the sphere, so the distance of the sphere from Earth's centre is

r=6370 km+310 km=6680 km=6.68\cdot 10^6 m

Substituting into the equation, we find

F=(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})\frac{(5.0 kg)(5.98\cdot 10^{24} kg)}{(6.68\cdot 10^6 m)^2}=44.7 N

A 2.3 m -long wire carries a current of 8.6 A and is immersed within a uniform magnetic field B⃗ . When this wire lies along the
Volgvan

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that :

The current I = 8.6 A

The length vector L = 2.3 m i

The force vector is = -2.0 j N

When L = 2.3 m i ; the

Force vector F = (2.0 i - 4.8 k) N

Compute the components of the magnetic field as follows:

F = I(L*B)

Replacing 8.6 A for I ; -2.0 j N for F & 2.3 m i for L

-2.0 j N = (8.6 A) (2.3 m i *(B_xi + B_yj+B_zk)

-2.0 j N = 19.78B_z \ and  \ 0 = 19.78B_y

B_z = -0.1011 T  \ and \ B_y = 0

However in y direction ; we have :

(2.0 i - 4.8 k) = 8,6 A (2.3 mi*(B_xi+B_yj+B_zk)

- 2.0 = 19.78 B_z \ and \ -4.8 = 19.78 B_x

B_z = -0.1011 T \ and \ B_x = -0.2427T

Hence, the component of magnetic field is as follows:

B_x = -.02427T \ ; B_y = 0 T \  ; B_z =  - 0.1011 T)

How can you use a ticker tape timer in describing motion graphically?
Bad White [126]
Ticker Tape analysis is a common way of analyzing the motion of the objects to perform in the physics laboratory. A long tape is attached to a moving object and threaded through a device that places a tick upon the tape at regular intervals of time. This ticker tape can also determine if the object is fast or slow. It can also reveal if the object is moving with a constant velocity or accelerating. The changing velocity and acceleration represented by the changing distance between dots in the ticker tape. And also the constant velocity and therefore no acceleration represent the constant distance between dots.

What is the unit of a force, and what is 1 unit equivalent to?
Verizon [17]

Answer:

Newton

Explanation:

The unit of force is Newton and it is given after Sir Isaac Newton for his tremendous works in this regard.

 Force is the product of mass and acceleration of a body.

    Force  = mass x acceleration  

 The unit of mass = kg

                    acceleration  = m/s²

So;

      1N  = 1kgm/s²

Therefore, the unit of force is newtons and 1N is equal to  1kgm/s²
