Answer:

-7.14

Explanation:

According to equation of motion

v = u + at

where

v is the final velocity at any time t

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

and t is the time

___________________________________________

Given

An object is thrown upward it means

its initial velocity is in upward direction

but acceleration due to gravity is in downward direction which will cause to decrease the velocity of object.

Intial velocity u = 31.1 m/s

final velocity v at 4 second we have to find.

t = 4 second

a = g = 9.81 m/s2 (it is acting in opposite direction of motion hence its sign will be negative ).

Thus

a = -  9.81 m/s2

using the above values in v = u + at

v = 32.1 - 9.81*4

v = 32.1 - 39.24

v = -7.14

Thus, correct option is -7.14.

A 100-kg spacecraft is in a circular orbit about Earth at a height h = 2RE .
maria [59]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the conservation of the Gravitational Force and the centripetal force by equilibrium,

F_g = F_c

\frac{GmM}{r^2} = \frac{mv^2}{r}

Where,

m = Mass of spacecraft

M = Mass of Earth

r = Radius (Orbit)

G = Gravitational Universal Music

v = Velocity

Re-arrange to find the velocity

\frac{GM}{r^2} = \frac{v^2}{r}

\frac{GM}{r} = v^2

v = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}

PART A ) The radius of the spacecraft's orbit is 2 times the radius of the earth, that is, considering the center of the earth, the spacecraft is 3 times at that distance. Replacing then,

v = \sqrt{\frac{(6.67*10^{-11})(5.97*10^{24})}{3*(6.371*10^6)}}

v = 4564.42m/s

From the speed it is possible to use find the formula, so

T = \frac{2\pi r}{v}

T = \frac{2\pi (6.371*10^6)}{4564.42}

T = 8770.05s\approx 146min\approx 2.4hour

Therefore the orbital period of the spacecraft is 2 hours and 24 minutes.

PART B) To find the kinetic energy we simply apply the definition of kinetic energy on the ship, which is

KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

KE = \frac{1}{2} (100)(4564.42)^2

KE = 1.0416*10^9J

Therefore the kinetic energy of the Spacecraft is 1.04 Gigajules.

A transformer is designed to provide 6 V from a 150 V supply. If the primary coil has 1000 turns, how many turns does the second
zavuch27 [327]
The applicable relationship is N1/N2 = V1/V2, meaning the ratio of primary voltage to secondary voltage is equal to the ratio of primary turns to secondary turns.

Here N1 = 1000, V1 = 250, V2 = 400V and N2 = TBD.

Rewriting the above relationship, N2 = N1 V2/V1 = 1000 x 400/250 = 1600 turns.

The position-time graph for a bug crawling along a line is shown in item 4 below. Determine whether the velocity is positive, ne
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer: The velocity at different marked time points are given as

t1 = -

t2 = +

t3 = +

t4 = -

t5 = 0

Explanation:

The slope of the tangent of the curve indicates the instantaneous velocity. So if the slope of the tangent is positive, that Is, the tangent makes a positive angle (above the horizontal axis) with the horizontal

axis, then the velocity at this point is positive, and if the slope of the tangent is negative, that is the tangent makes a negative angle with the horizontal axis (below the horizontal axis), then the velocity at this point is negative.

When the tangent of the line is parallel to the horizontal axis, the velocity is 0.

From the position-time graph attached, the sign on the instantaneous velocity for each time marked on the graph is given below

t1 = -

t2 = +

t3 = +

t4 = -

t5 = 0

A driver's foot presses with a steady force of 20N on a pedal in a car as shown.
azamat

Answer:

160N

Explanation:

Moments must be conserved - so.

20 * 0.4 = F * 0.05

F=\frac{20*0.4}{0.05} = 160
