This problem is to let you practice using Newton's second law of motion:
Force = (mass) x (acceleration)
-- The airplane's mass when it takes off (before it burns any of its load of fuel) is 320,000 kg.
-- The force available is (240,000 N/per engine) x (4 engines) = 960,000 N.
-- Now you know ' F ' and ' mass '. Use Newton's second law of motion to calculate the plane's acceleration.
Answer:
g = 8.61 m/s²
Explanation:
distance of the International Space Station form earth is 200 Km
mass of the object = 1 Kg
acceleration due to gravity on earth = 9.8 m/s²
mass of earth = 5.972 x 10²⁴ Kg
acceleration due to gravity = ?
r = 6400 + 200 = 6800 Km = 6.8 x 10⁶ n
using formula


g = 8.61 m/s²
Answer:
a)
& 
b) 
c) 
Explanation:
Given:
mass of the book, 
combined mass of the student and the skateboard, 
initial velocity of the book, 
angle of projection of the book from the horizontal, 
a)
velocity of the student before throwing the book:
Since the student is initially at rest and no net force acts on the student so it remains in rest according to the Newton's first law of motion.

where:
initial velocity of the student
velocity of the student after throwing the book:
Since the student applies a force on the book while throwing it and the student standing on the skate will an elastic collision like situation on throwing the book.

where:
final velcotiy of the student after throwing the book
b)



c)
Since there is no movement of the student in the vertical direction, so the total momentum transfer to the earth will be equal to the momentum of the book in vertical direction.



Answer:
D. 130 J
Explanation:
The coefficient of performance for a machine that is being used to cool, is given by:

Here
is the heat removed from the cold reservoir, W is the work required, that is, the energy required to remove the heat from the interior of the house,
is the cold temperature and
is the hot temperature. Recall use absolutes temperatures(
). Replacing and solving for W:

Answer:
83%
Explanation:
On the surface, the weight is:
W = GMm / R²
where G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of the Earth, m is the mass of the shuttle, and R is the radius of the Earth.
In orbit, the weight is:
w = GMm / (R+h)²
where h is the height of the shuttle above the surface of the Earth.
The ratio is:
w/W = R² / (R+h)²
w/W = (R / (R+h))²
Given that R = 6.4×10⁶ m and h = 6.3×10⁵ m:
w/W = (6.4×10⁶ / 7.03×10⁶)²
w/W = 0.83
The shuttle in orbit retains 83% of its weight on Earth.
