An object is moving with the speed of light around the Earth. How much time will it take to complete one round trip along the eq

Answer:

0.14 seconds

Explanation:

The speed of light in vacuum is approximately 3.0*10^8. The distance that would be covered by the object would be equivalent to the circumference of the cross-section of the earth on the equator.

Circumference = 2\pi*6400000 =4.02*10^7

Time = distance/speed = 4.2*10^7 / 3.0*10^8 =0.14s

How would you measure the volume of an oddly shaped object
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

By placing it in water and measuring how high the water rises

Explanation:

You can place the object in a can filled with water. You'll then see that as it sits there, the water level rises. You would then measure that to find the volume.

A flat surface of area 3.20 m2 is rotated in a uniform electric field of magnitude e = 6.20 x 105 n/c. determine the electric fl
krok68 [10]
The electric flux on a surface of area A in a uniform electric field E is given by 
φ = EA cos θ
where θ = the angle between the directions of E and a normal vector to the surface of the area.
See the diagram shown below.

When the electric field is perpendicular to the surface, then θ = 0°, and
φ = EA cos(0°)  = (6.20 x 10⁵ N/C)*(3.2 m²) = 1.984 x 10⁶ (N-m²)/C

When the electric field is parallel to the area, then θ = 90°, and
φ = EA cos(90°) = 0

Answer:
(a) 1.984 x 10⁶ (N-m²)/C
(b) 0

What object requires less force to overcome inertia B.80 kg piece of furniture or A.1000 kg vehicle
Tju [1.3M]

Less force will be necessary to overcome inertia for the 80 kg piece of furniture.

Force is a factor that has the power to alter an object's motion. A massed object's velocity can be changed or accelerated by a force. A push or a pull is a straightforward method to explain forces.

The term "moment of inertia" refers to the quantity that describes how a body resists angular acceleration and is calculated by multiplying each particle's mass by its square of the distance from the rotational axis.

I = mr², where m is the mass of the object and r is the distance to the rotation axis.

Therefore, The inertia is directly proportional to the mass of the object.

So, as the mass increases the inertia increases.

Therefore, 80 kg piece of furniture will require less force to overcome inertia.

A horizontal disk with a radius of 10 cm rotates about a vertical axis through its center. The disk starts from rest at t = 0 an
Tom [10]

Answer:

0.69s

Explanation:

10 cm = 0.1 m

Let t be the time that radial and tangential components of the linear acceleration of a point on the rim be equal in magnitude. At that time we have the angular velocity would be

\omega = \alpha t = 2.1 t

And so the radial acceleration is

a_r = \omega^2 r = (2.1t)^2 r = 2.1^2 t^2 * 0.1= 0.441 t^2 m/s^2

The tangential acceleration is always the same since angular acceleration is constant:

a_t = \alpha * r = 2.1 * 0.1 = 0.21 m/s^2

For these 2 quantities to be the same

a_r = a_t

0.441 t^2 = 0.21

t^2 = 0.21/0.441 = 0.4762

t = \sqrt{0.4762} = 0.69 s

Two students were climbing stairs at school. Student 1 has a weight of 700 N. Student 2 has a weight of 650 N. How much power wo
KIM [24]

Student 1 would have a power 467 W and student 2 would have a power of 433 W. The correct option is the fourth option - Student 1 would have 467 W, and Student 2 would have 433 W of power.

From the question,

We are to calculate the power each student would have to climb the flight of stairs.

Power can be calculated using the formula

P = \frac{F \times d}{t}

Where

P is Power

F is the force

d is the distance

and t is the time

NOTE: The weight of the students represent the force

  • For student 1

F = 700 N

d = 4 m

t = 6 s

∴ P = \frac{700 \times 4}{6}

P = 467 W

  • For student 2

F = 650 N

d = 4 m

t = 6 s

∴ P = \frac{650 \times 4}{6}

P = 433 W

Hence, Student 1 would have a power 467 W and student 2 would have a power of 433 W. The correct option is the fourth option - Student 1 would have 467 W, and Student 2 would have 433 W of power.
