7 0

Answer: B

Explanation:

When in orbit, a satellite is hold in position thanks to, between others, the earth's gravity. So the C option is discarded.

A projectile is an object thrown by the exertion of some force, like a bullet or a cannonball.

A satellite is placed in some orbit, so he can rotate the earth. The movement of the satellite is non-accelerated motion, because the only forces that act on the satellite are the forces that hold him in orbit.

What does the mass defect represent?
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

C.) The amount of mass used up in holding a nucleus together.

Explanation:

The mass defect of a nucleus represents the mass of the energy binding the nucleus. It is the difference between the mass of the nucleus and the sum of the masses of the nucleons of which it is composed.

Assume that the driver begins to brake the car when the distance to the wall is d=107m, and take the car's mass as m-1400kg, its
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) Let let the frictional force needed be F

Work done by frictional force = kinetic energy of car

F x 107 = 1/2 x 1400 x 35²

F = 8014 N

b )

maximum possible static friction

= μ mg

where μ is coefficient of static friction

= .5 x 1400 x 9.8

= 6860 N

c )

work done by friction for μ = .4

= .4 x 1400 x 9.8 x 107

= 587216 J

Initial Kinetic energy

= .5 x 1400 x 35 x 35

= 857500 J

Kinetic energy at the at of collision

= 857500 - 587216

= 270284 J

So , if v be the velocity at the time of collision

1/2 mv² = 270284

v = 19.65 m /s

d ) centripetal force required

= mv₀² / d which will be provided by frictional force

= (1400 x 35 x 35) / 107

= 16028 N

Maximum frictional force possible

= μmg

= .5 x 1400 x 9.8

= 6860 N

So this is not possible.
