Answers:

a) $T_{2}>T_{5}>T_{1}>T_{3}=T_{6}>T_{4}$

b) $a_{4}>a_{6}>a_{1}>a_{3}>a_{5}>a_{2}$

Explanation:

a) Since we are told the satellites circle the space station at constant speed, we can assume they follow a uniform circular motion and their tangential speeds $V$ are given by:

$V=\omega L=\frac{2\pi}{T} L$ (1)

Where:

$\omega$ is the angular frequency

$L$ is the radius of the orbit of each satellite

$T$ is the period of the orbit of each satellite

Isolating $T$ :

$T=\frac{2 \pi L}{V}$ (2)

Applying this equation to each satellite:

$T_{1}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{1}}=261.79 s$ (3)

$T_{2}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{2}}=1570.79 s$ (4)

$T_{3}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{3}}=196.349 s$ (5)

$T_{4}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{4}}=98.174 s$ (6)

$T_{5}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{5}}=785.398 s$ (7)

$T_{6}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{6}}=196.349 s$ (8)

Ordering this periods from largest to smallest:

$T_{2}>T_{5}>T_{1}>T_{3}=T_{6}>T_{4}$

b) Acceleration $a$ is defined as the variation of velocity in time:

$a=\frac{V}{T}$ (9)

Applying this equation to each satellite:

$a_{1}=\frac{V_{1}}{T_{1}}=0.458 m/s^{2}$ (10)

$a_{2}=\frac{V_{2}}{T_{2}}=0.0254 m/s^{2}$ (11)

$a_{3}=\frac{V_{3}}{T_{3}}=0.4074 m/s^{2}$ (12)

$a_{4}=\frac{V_{4}}{T_{4}}=1.629 m/s^{2}$ (13)

$a_{5}=\frac{V_{5}}{T_{5}}=0.101 m/s^{2}$ (14)

$a_{6}=\frac{V_{6}}{T_{6}}=0.814 m/s^{2}$ (15)

Ordering this acceerations from largest to smallest:

$a_{4}>a_{6}>a_{1}>a_{3}>a_{5}>a_{2}$

As a woman walks, her entire weight is momentarily placed on one heel of her high-heeled shoes. Calculate the pressure exerted o

STatiana [176]

Answer:

3335400 N/m² or 483.75889 lb/in²

Explanation:

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

A = Area = 1.5 cm²

m = Mass of woman = 51 kg

F = Force = mg

When we divide force by area we get pressure

$P=\frac{F}{A}\\\Rightarrow P=\frac{mg}{A}\\\Rightarrow P=\frac{51\times 9.81}{1.5\times 10^{-4}}\\\Rightarrow P=3335400\ N/m^2$

$1\ N/m^2=\frac{1}{6894.757}\ lb/in^2$

$3335400\ N/m^2=3335400\times \frac{1}{6894.757}\ lb/in^2=483.75889\ lb/in^2$

The pressure exerted on the floor is 3335400 N/m² or 483.75889 lb/in²

Measurements of acceleration are given in units of ?

Lady_Fox [76]

Meters per second squared: $\frac{m}{s^{2}}$

If you think about it, acceleration is about how fast speed changes. Speed is measured in meters per second: $\frac{m}{s}$

So if you take that and just measure it over time, you get meters per second squared.

True or False<br><br> An object will slow down and stop as long as no forces act upon it

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

false

Explanation:

Understand Newton’s first law of motion. Experience suggests that an object at rest will remain at rest if left alone, and that an object in motion tends to slow down and stop unless some effort is made to keep it moving. An object will go on forever if there were no forces to act upon it. In space, a rocket will go forever at the speed it projects.
