Answer:

500 ft

Explanation: One must dim their high-beam lights when the oncoming vehicle is 500 ft away so that the oncoming driver can look clearly and drive safely. High beam light should be used at night to drive safely when one is not able to see ahead of the road clearly. Even for the most experienced drivers low visibility is an issue.

A geosynchronous satellite moves in a circular orbit around the Earth and completes one circle in the same time T during which t

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The time period of geosynchronous satellite must be equal to T .

The radius of its orbit will be ( R+ h )

orbital velocity V₀ = $\sqrt{\frac{GM}{( R+h)} }$

Time period T = 2π( R + h ) / V₀

= 2π( R + h ) x $\sqrt{\frac{( R+h)}{GM } }$

$\frac{T^\frac{2}{3}(GM)^\frac{1}{3} }{(2\pi )^\frac{2}{3} }$ = R +h

h = $\frac{T^\frac{2}{3}(GM)^\frac{1}{3} }{(2\pi )^\frac{2}{3} }$ - R.

Suppose that a block of mass 2 kg is pulled to the right with a force of 10 N, and the friction force on the block is directed t

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

The block has an acceleration of $3 m/s^{2}$

Explanation:

By means of Newton's second law it can be determine the acceleration of the block.

$\sum F_{r} = ma$ (1)

Where $\sum F_{r}$ represents the net force, m is the mass and a is the acceleration.

$F_{x} + F{y} = ma$ (2)

The forces present in x are $F = 10 N$ and $f = 4 N$ (the friction force):

$F_{x} = 10 N - 4 N$

Notice that $f$ subtracts to $F$ since it is at the opposite direction.

$F_{x} = 6 N$

The forces present in y balance each other:

$F_{y} = 0$

Therefore:

$6 + 0 = ma$

$6 N = (2kg)a$ (3)

But $1 N = 1 Kg.m/s^{2}$ and writing (3) in terms of a it is get:

$a = \frac{6 Kg.m/s^{2}}{2 Kg}$

$a = 3 m/s^{2}$

So the block has an acceleration of $a = 3 m/s^{2}$ .

Which is classified as an inner transition element

slamgirl [31]

An inner transition metal (ITM) is one of a group of chemical elements on the periodic table. They are normally shown in two rows below all the other elements. They include elements 57-71 (lanthanides) and 89-103 (actinides).

A 22 µF capacitor charged to 0.7 kV and a second 115 µF capacitor charged to 5.5 kV are connected to each other, with the positi

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

0.099C

Explanation:

First, we need to get the common potential voltage using the formula

$V=\frac {C_2V_2-C_1V_1}{C_1+C_2}$

Where V is the common voltage, C and V represent capacitance and charge respectively. Subscripts 1 and 2 to represent the the first and second respectively. Substituting the above with the following given values then

$C_1=22\times 10^{-6} F\\ C_2=115\times 10^{-6} F\\ V_1= 0.7\times 10^{3}\\V_2=5.5\times 10^{3}$

Therefore

$V=\frac {115\times 10^{-6}\times 5.5\times 10^{3}-22\times 10^{6}\times 0.7\times 10^{3}}{22\times 10^{-6}+115\times 10^{-6}}=4504.3795620437$

Charge, Q is given by CV hence for the first capacitor charge will be $Q_1=C_1V$

Here, $Q_1=22\times 10^{-6}\times 4504.3795620437=0.0990963503649C\approx 0.099C$

Solve the equation x=3logy2 for y.

melisa1 [442]

X = 3 · log(Y²)

X = 3 · 2·log(Y)

X/6 = log(Y)

10^(X/6) = 10^log(Y)

Y = 10^(X/6)
