Answer:

  r = 3.787 10¹¹ m

Explanation:

We can solve this exercise using Newton's second law, where force is the force of universal attraction and centripetal acceleration

    F = ma

    G m M / r² = m a

The centripetal acceleration is given by

    a = v² / r

For the case of an orbit the speed circulates (velocity module is constant), let's use the relationship

    v = d / t

The distance traveled Esla orbits, in a circle the distance is

    d = 2 π r

Time in time to complete the orbit, called period

     v = 2π r / T

Let's replace

    G m M / r² = m a

    G M / r² = (2π r / T)² / r

    G M / r² = 4π² r / T²

    G M T² = 4π² r3

     r = ∛ (G M T² / 4π²)

Let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

     T = 3.27 and (365 d / 1 y) (24 h / 1 day) (3600s / 1h)

     T = 1.03 10⁸ s

Let's calculate

      r = ∛[6.67 10⁻¹¹ 3.03 10³⁰ (1.03 10⁸) 2) / 4π²2]

      r = ∛ (21.44 10³⁵ / 39.478)

      r = ∛(0.0543087 10 36)

      r = 0.3787 10¹² m

      r = 3.787 10¹¹ m

A car travels around a level, circular track that is 750m across. What coefficient of friction is required to ensure the car can
Crank

The coefficient of friction must be 0.196

Explanation:

For a car moving on a circular track, the frictional force provides the centripetal force needed to keep the car in circular motion. Therefore, we can write:

\mu mg = m\frac{v^2}{r}

where the term on the left is the frictional force acting between the tires of the car and the road, while the term on the right is the centripetal force. The various terms are:

\mu is the coefficient of friction between the tires and the road

m is the mass of the car

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

v is the speed of the car

r is the radius of the curve

In this problem,

r = 750 m is the radius

v=85 mph \cdot \frac{1609}{3600}=38.0 m/s is the speed

And solving for \mu, we find the coefficient of friction required to keep the car in circular motion:

\mu = \frac{v^2}{rg}=\frac{38.0^2}{(750)(9.8)}=0.196

Sphinxa [80]

Explanation:

you measure temperature in degrees celsius using a thermometer. Thermal energy is measured in joules. A larger volume of water will take longer to heat up but will store more energy than the smaller object. However, a smaller object will lose it's heat faster than a larger object. A cup of tea has less thermal energy than a swimming pool.

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Oh well have your parents do something bout that. They are there to help you. Or guardian they all shall help you that is what they are there for. They are they to take care of you, answer you questions, and last but not least, they are there to also raise you. Ask you mom, dad, guardian, and maybe even you teacher to post pone the date. Teachers are to help you. Your guardian is to watch you make sure your safe while your parents are away (bascially like raising you). And parents to raise you, make sure you safe, and many other things like to make sure you are fed.

Explanation:

I hope they all have some type of help for you.
