Answer: B.) HYDROPLANE

Explanation: The term hydroplane can be used to refer to a condition which usually occur during a downpour or on surfaces covered by water. It occurs when water forms a barrier or comes in between the frictional grip which occurs between the road surface and the car tyres. The contact between the car tyres and the road surface is supposed to give adequate frictional support which prevents the car from skidding or skidding uncontrollably on the road surface. However, when water comes invetween the surface, traction is lost and skidding results due to very low Coefficient of friction between the road and Tyre which was supposed to provide a firm grip between the tyres and the road surface.

A satellite is in circular orbit at an altitude of 1500 km above the surface of a nonrotating planet with an orbital speed of 9.
Ksju [112]

To solve this problem we will use the Newtonian theory about the speed of a body in space for which the speed of a body in the orbit of a planet is summarized as:

v =  \sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}

Where,

G = Gravitational Universal Constant

M = Mass of Planet

r = Radius of the planet ('h' would be the orbit from the surface)

The escape velocity is

v = 14.9km/h = 14900m/s

Through this equation we can find the mass of the Planet in function of the distance, therefore

M = \frac{v^2R}{2G}

M = \frac{14900^2R}{2(6.67*10^{-11})}

M = 16.64*10^{17}R

The orbital velocity is

v_o = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{R+h}}

9200^2 = \frac{(6.67*10^{-11})(16.64*10^{17})R}{R+1500*10^3}

11.1*10^7R = (R+15000*10^3)(9200)^2

2.64*10^7R = 12.69*10^{13}

R = 4.81*10^6m

The time period of revolution is,

T = \frac{2\pi(R+h)}{v_o}

T = \frac{2\pi(4.81*10^6+1.5*10^6)}{9200}

T = 4307s

T = 72min = 1hour12min

Therefore the orbital period of the satellite is closes to 1 hour and 12 min

A 2.964 kilogram truck strikes a fence at 7.00 meters/second and comes to
Makovka662 [10]

10.92N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of truck = 2.964kg

Velocity of truck = 7m/s

Time taken = 1.9s

Unknown:

Average force on the car = ?

Solution:

According to newton's third law of motion "action and reaction are equal and opposite".

The force with which the truck struck the fence is the same as the force the fence acted on the truck with but in another direction.

 From newton's second law:

      Force  = mass x acceleration

      We know that acceleration is the change in velocity with time;

   acceleration = \frac{change in velocity }{time }

   Force =  mass x  \frac{change in velocity }{time }

  Force = \frac{2.964 x 7}{1.9} = 10.92N

B
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

Frequency = 1,550Hz

Explanation:

To solve this we can use the equation: f=\frac{v}{\lambda}

(frequency = velocity/wavelength).

We are given the information that the wavelength is 22cm and the speed is 340m/s. The first step is to make sure everything is in the correct units (SI units), and to convert them if needed. The SI Units for velocity and wavelength are m/s and m respectively. This means we need to convert 22cm into meters, which we can do by dividing by 100, (as there are 100cm in a meter). 22/100 = 0.22m

Now we can substitute these values into the formula and calculate to solve:

f=\frac{340}{0.22} \\\\f=1545.454...

Simplify to 3 significant figures:

f = 1,550Hz

(Which I believe is just below a G6 if you were interested)

Hope this helped!
