Object A moves with a constant velocity of -10 m/s and object B moves with a constant velocity of 5 m/s. Which object has the la

rger speed?

Object A has the larger speed because speed is not a vector quantity, it is scalar. This means that directionality, or in this case the sign of the velocity, doesn’t matter.
Speed = |velocity|
Object a speed =|-10|=10 m/s
Object b speed =|5|=5 m/s

Object a is the answer.

Planets are not uniform inside. Normally, they are densest at the center and have decreasing density outward toward the surface.

SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

a = 9.94 m/s²

Explanation:

given,

density at center= 1.6 x 10⁴ kg/m³

density at the surface = 2100 Kg/m³

volume mass density as function of distance

$\rho(r) = ar^2 - br^3$

r is the radius of the spherical shell

dr is the thickness

volume of shell

$dV = 4 \pi r^2 dr$

mass of shell

$dM = \rho(r)dV$

$\rho = \rho_0 - br$

now,

$dM = (\rho_0 - br)(4 \pi r^2)dr$

integrating both side

$M = \int_0^{R} (\rho_0 - br)(4 \pi r^2)dr$

$M = \dfrac{4\pi}{3}R^3\rho_0 - \pi R^4(\dfrac{\rho_0-\rho}{R})$

$M = \pi R^3(\dfrac{\rho_0}{3}+\rho)$

we know,

$a = \dfrac{GM}{R^2}$

$a = \dfrac{G( \pi R^3(\dfrac{\rho_0}{3}+\rho))}{R^2}$

$a =\pi RG(\dfrac{\rho_0}{3}+\rho)$

$a =\pi (6.674\times 10^{-11}\times 6.38 \times 10^6)(\dfrac{1.60\times 10^4}{3}+2.1\times 10^3)$

a = 9.94 m/s²

The tension in the rope securing the upper pulley and the force that must be applied to keep the system in equilibrium

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

In a frictionless system with no acceleration, the tension in the rope must be F along its entire length

FBD analysis of the lower pulley has two upward acting tension vectors F and one downward acting weight vector W

2F = W

F = W/2

FBD analysis of the upper pulley has one upward acting support vector T and three downward acting tension vectors F

T = 3F

T = 3(W/2)

T = 1.5W

How is the acceleration of a car traveling on an elevated air track related to the angle of elevation and the height of elevatio

vitfil [10]

on a given inclined we know that net force is given by

$F_{net} = - mgsin\theta$

here we know that

$F_{net} = ma$

so here we have

$ma = - mg sin\theta$

$a = - gsin\theta$

so here acceleration depends directly on angle of inclination

now we also know that if height of the inclined is H and its length is L

then we can write

$sin\theta = \frac{H}{L}$

so the acceleration is given as

$a = - g*\frac{H}{L}$

so acceleration also depends directly on height of the inclined plane

Answer:

Florence is often named as the birthplace of the Renaissance. The early writers and artists of the period sprung from this city in the northern hills of Italy. As a center for the European wool trade, the political power of the city rested primarily in the hands of the wealthy merchants who dominated the industry
