A string is attached to a ball that has a mass of 0.11 kg. A student pulls up on the string so that the ball accelerates upward

at 0.5 m/s2. What is the tension in the string? (Take the magnitude of acceleration due to gravity to be 9.8 m/s2.)
(Hint: How do all the forces involved interact with each other?)

Answer:

T=+1.133N

Explanation:

Tension and weight are forces that have opposite directions

Weight is negative (downward)

W=m*g= 0.11kg*(-9.8m/s^2)

W= -1.078N

Tension is possitive (upward)

The total force will be the sum of both (the difference taking in consideration the direction)

Ft= T+W

Also the total force is the product of the mass due to acceleration:

Ft=m*a

Ft= +0.11kg*0.5m/s^2

Ft=+0.055N (upward)

Tension will be the difference between Ft and W:

T= Ft-W

T=+0.055N-(-1.078N)

T=+1.133N

A car travels 480 km in 12 hr. what is its velocity
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

velocity=s/t

given distance is 480 km we have to convert it into meter because the unit of distance is meter

1 km=1000 m

480 km=480000 m =4.8*10^5

1 hour= 3600 s

12 hour =43200 s  

now velocity=s/t

v=4.8*10^5/43200

v=11.11 m/s

Orbital velocity is the average speed ofa planet moving through space in itsorbit around the sun. Which of thefollowing planets
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

Mercury

Explanation:

The force of gravity is equal to the mass times the centripetal acceleration:

Fg = m v² / r

Also, the force of gravity is defined by Newton's law of universal gravitation, which states the Fg = mMG / r², where m and M are the masses of the objects, G is the universal constant of gravitation, and r is the distance between the objects.

mMG / r² = m v²/ r

MG / r = v²

This means the square of the orbital velocity is equal to the mass of the sun times the universal constant of gravity divided by the orbital radius.  So whichever planet has the smallest orbital radius will have the highest orbital velocity.  Of the four options, that would be Mercury.

A(n) 71.1 kg astronaut becomes separated from the shuttle, while on a space walk. She finds herself 70.2 m away from the shuttle
denpristay [2]

Answer:

10.347 minutes.

Explanation:

According to F = ma, she exerts force on camera of the magnitude

F = 0.67Kg*12m/s^{2} = 8.04N, assuming it took her one second to accelerate camera to 12m/s, then by newtons third law, which says every action has equal and opposite reaction , the camera exerts the same amount of force on the astronaut which gives her acceleration of a = \frac{8.04N}{70.2Kg} = 0.1130801680m/s^2.

and velocity of V = 0.1130801680m/s.

at this velocity , the astronaut has to cover the distance of 70.2 meters, it will take her 620.7985075s = 10.347 min to get to the shuttle (using S = vt).
