<h2>Answer: The astronauts are falling at the same rate as the space shuttle as it orbits around earth</h2>
The astronauts seem to float because they are in free fall just like the spacecraft.
However, although they are constantly falling on the Earth, they do not fall because the ship orbits at a sufficient speed (in the same direction of rotation of the Earth) so that the centrifugal force is balanced with the Earth's gravitational pull.
In other words:
The spaccraft and the astronauts are in free fall but the Earth's surface will never be reached as long as they does not decrease the speed.
Then, as they accelerate toward Earth (regardless of their mass), it curves beneath them and never comes close.
That's why astronauts, having the same acceleration as the spacecraft, feel weightless and see themselves floating.
Let k = the force constant of the spring (N/m).
The strain energy (SE) stored in the spring when it is compressed by a distance x=0.35 m is
SE = (1/2)*k*x²
= 0.5*(k N/m)*(0.35 m)²
= 0.06125k J
The KE (kinetic energy) of the sliding block is
KE = (1/2)*mass*velocity²
= 0.5*(1.8 kg)*(1.9 m/s)²
= 3.249 J
Assume that negligible energy is lost when KE is converted into SE.
Therefore
0.06125k = 3.249
k = 53.04 N/m
Answer: 53 N/m (nearest integer)
Answer:
write the equation of motion go over the centre of mass
Explanation:
the center of mass of a distribution of mass in space (sometimes referred to as the balance point) is the unique point where the weighted relative position of the distributed mass sums to zero. This is the point to which a force may be applied to cause a linear acceleration without an angular acceleration.
Answer: F = 1391 N
Explanation:
The information given to you are:
Mass M = 1300 kg
Acceleration a = 1.07 m/s^2
The magnitude of the force striking the building will be
F = ma
Where
F = force
Substitute mass M and acceleration a into the formula
F = 1300 × 1.07
F = 1391 N
Therefore, the wrecking ball strikes the building with a force of 1391 N
