While driving fast around a sharp right turn, you find yourself pressing against the car door. What is happening?

sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

option C

Explanation:

The correct answer is option C

When the driver takes the sharp right turn the door will exert rightward pressure on the driver.

When the driver takes the sudden right turn the tendency of the body is to be in the straight line by the vehicle moves in the circular path so, as the vehicle turns it applies a rightward force on you.

The pushing of the door to you because of the centripetal force acting on the car due to sudden sharp turn.

An astronaut is standing on the surface of a planetary satellite that has a radius of 1.74 × 10^6 m and a mass of 7.35 × 10^22 k

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

2.87 km/s

Explanation:

radius of planet, R = 1.74 x 10^6 m

Mass of planet, M = 7.35 x 10^22 kg

height, h = 2.55 x 10^6 m

G = 6.67 x 106-11 Nm^2/kg^2

Use teh formula for acceleration due to gravity

$g=\frac{GM}{R^{2}}$

$g=\frac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 7.35\times 10^{22}}{1.74^{2}\times 10^{12}}$

g = 1.62 m/s^2

initial velocity, u = ?, h = 2.55 x 10^6 m , final velocity, v = 0

Use third equation of motion

$v^{2}=u^{2}-2gh$

0 = v² - 2 x 1.62 x 2.55 x 10^6

v² = 8262000

v = 2874.37 m/s

v = 2.87 km/s

Thus, the initial speed should be 2.87 km/s.

Two identical spheres carry charges of +0.6 coulomb and -0.2 coulomb, respectively. If these spheres touch, the resulting charge

masya89 [10]

Answer:

2. +0.2 C

Explanation:

When the two spheres touch, the total charge will be redistributed such that the two spheres are at same potential:

$V_1 = V_2$

The potential can be rewritten as ratio between the charge on the sphere (Q) and the capacitance of the sphere (C):

$\frac{Q_1}{C_1}=\frac{Q_2}{C_2}$

Since the two spheres are identical, they have same capacitance:

$C_1 =C_2=C$

So we can write

$\frac{Q_1}{C}=\frac{Q_2}{C}$

$Q_1=Q_2$

And since the total charge is

$Q=+0.6 C-0.2 C=+0.4 C$

And this charge will be redistributed equally on the two spheres ( $Q_1 = Q_2$ ), we have

$Q_1 = Q_2 = \frac{Q}{2}=\frac{+0.4 C}{2}=+0.2 C$
