Answer:

The car exerts a force on the truck which  is c.)  6000 N.

Explanation:

If the truck exerts a force of 6000 N on the car then according to Newton's Third Law of Motion that every action has an equal and opposite reaction we can say that the force exerted by the car on the truck is 6000 N.

The only reason the truck is able to move the car is because of the frictional forces. That is frictional force of the trucks tires on the surface of the road and the frictional forces of the cars tire on the surface of the road, and since these forces are not equal this therefore gives rise to motion.

An Earth satellite is orbiting at a distance from the Earth’s surface equal to one Earth radius (4 000 miles). At this location,
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

The acceleration due to gravity is \dfrac{1}{4} times the value of g at the Earth’s surface.

(D) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius = 4000 miles

We need to calculate the gravitational force at surface

Gravitational force on the mass m on the surface of the earth

At r = R

F=mg

mg=\dfrac{GmM}{R^2}....(I)

We need to calculate the gravitational force at height

Gravitational force on a mass m from the center of the earth,

At r = R + R = 2 R

F'=mg'

mg'=\dfrac{GmM}{4R^2}....(II)

Dividing equation (II) by equation (I)

\dfrac{mg'}{mg}=\dfrac{\dfrac{GmM}{4R^2}}{\dfrac{GmM}{R^2}}

\dfrac{g'}{g}=\dfrac{1}{4}

Hence, The acceleration due to gravity is \dfrac{1}{4} times the value of g at the Earth’s surface.

which planet should punch travel to if his goal is to weigh in at 118 lb? refer to the table of planetary masses and radii given
Harrizon [31]

The planet that Punch should travel to in order to weigh 118 lb is Pentune.

<h3 /><h3 /><h3>The given parameters:</h3>
  • Weight of Punch on Earth = 236 lb
  • Desired weight = 118 lb

The mass of Punch will be constant in every planet;

W = mg\\\\m = \frac{W}{g}\\\\m = \frac{236}{g}

The acceleration due to gravity of each planet with respect to Earth is calculated by using the following relationship;

F = mg = \frac{GmM}{R^2} \\\\g = \frac{GM}{R^2}

where;

  • M is the mass of Earth = 5.972 x 10²⁴ kg
  • R is the Radius of Earth = 6,371 km

For Planet Tehar;

g_T =\frac{G \times 2.1M}{(0.8R)^2} \\\\g_T = 3.28(\frac{GM}{R^2} )\\\\g_T = 3.28 g

For planet Loput:

g_L =\frac{G \times 5.6M}{(1.7R)^2} \\\\g_L = 1.94(\frac{GM}{R^2} )\\\\g_L = 1.94g

For planet Cremury:

g_C =\frac{G \times 0.36M}{(0.3R)^2} \\\\g_C = 4(\frac{GM}{R^2} )\\\\g_C = 4 g

For Planet Suven:

g_s =\frac{G \times 12M}{(2.8R)^2} \\\\g_s = 1.53(\frac{GM}{R^2} )\\\\g_s = 1.53 g

For Planet Pentune;

g_P =\frac{G \times 8.3 }{(4.1R)^2} \\\\g_P = 0.5(\frac{GM}{R^2} )\\\\g_P = 0.5 g

For Planet Rams;

g_R =\frac{G \times 9.3M}{(4R)^2} \\\\g_R = 0.58(\frac{GM}{R^2} )\\\\g_R = 0.58 g

The weight Punch on Each Planet at a constant mass is calculated as follows;

W = mg\\\\W_T = mg_T\\\\W_T = \frac{236}{g} \times 3.28g = 774.08 \ lb\\\\W_L = \frac{236}{g} \times 1.94g =457.84 \ lb\\\\ W_C = \frac{236}{g}\times 4g = 944 \ lb \\\\ W_S = \frac{236}{g} \times 1.53g = 361.08 \ lb\\\\W_P = \frac{236}{g} \times 0.5 g = 118 \ lb\\\\W_R = \frac{236}{g} \times 0.58 g = 136.88 \ lb

Thus, the planet that Punch should travel to in order to weigh 118 lb is Pentune.

<u>The </u><u>complete question</u><u> is below</u>:

Which planet should Punch travel to if his goal is to weigh in at 118 lb? Refer to the table of planetary masses and radii given to determine your answer.

Punch Taut is a down-on-his-luck heavyweight boxer. One day, he steps on the bathroom scale and "weighs in" at 236 lb. Unhappy with his recent bouts, Punch decides to go to a different planet where he would weigh in at 118 lb so that he can compete with the bantamweights who are not allowed to exceed 118 lb. His plan is to travel to Xobing, a newly discovered star with a planetary system. Here is a table listing the planets in that system (<em>find the image attached</em>).

<em>In the table, the mass and the radius of each planet are given in terms of the corresponding properties of the earth. For instance, Tehar has a mass equal to 2.1 earth masses and a radius equal to 0.80 earth radii.</em>

A steam engine absorbs 4 x 105 J and expels 3.5 x 105 J in each cycle. What is its efficiency?
Wewaii [24]
Input heat, Qin = 4 x 10⁵ J
Output heat, Qout = 3.5 x 10⁵ J

From the first Law of thermodynamics, obtain useful work performed as
W = Qin  -  Qout
     = 0.5 x 10⁵ J

By definition, the efficiency is
η = W/Qin
   = 100*(0.5 x 10⁵/4 x 10⁵)
   = 12.5%

Answer: The efficiency is 12.5%
