To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to Newton's second law that relates force as the product between acceleration and mass. From there, we will get the acceleration. Finally, through the cinematic equations of motion we will find the time required by the object.

If the Force (F) is 42N on an object of mass (m) of 83000kg we have that the acceleration would be by Newton's second law.

F = ma \rightarrow a = \frac{F}{m}

Replacing,

a =\frac{42N}{83000kg}

a =5.06*10^{-4}m/s^2

The total speed change

\Delta v = v_f -v_0 \rightarrow v_f =\text{Final velocity and } v_0 = \text{Initial velocity } we have that the value is 0.71m/s

If we know that acceleration is the change of speed in a fraction of time,

a= \frac{\Delta v}{t} \rightarrow t = \frac{\Delta v}{a}

We have that,

t= \frac{0.71m/s}{5.06*10^{-4}m/s^2 }

t = 1403.16s

Therefore the Rocket should be fired around to 1403.16s

dimaraw [331]

The cost of boiling 500 cm³ of water using the 3 KW Kettle is 1.35p

<h3>What is power? </h3>

This is defined as the rate in which energy is consumed. Electrical power is expressed mathematically as:

Power (P) = Energy (E) / time (t)

P = E / t

<h3>How to determine the energy</h3>
  • Power (P) = 3 KW
  • Time (t) = 3 mins = 3 / 60 = 0.05 h
  • Energy (E) =?

E = Pt

E = 3 × 0.05

E = 0.15 KWh

<h3>How to determine the cost</h3>
  • Energy (E) = 0.15 KWh
  • Cost per unit = 9p
  • Cost =?

Cost = Energy × cost per unit

Cost = 0.15 × 9

Cost = 1.35p

saveliy_v [14]
The spectrum of light from the moon should very strongly resemble the spectrum of sunlight. The reason is that any light from the moon started out from the sun. Any difference in their spectra is only due to the moon absorbing more of some wavelengths and less of others. But since the moon appears colorless gray, we don't expect any particular colors to be strongly absorbed, otherwise the moon would look to be the colors of the light that's left.

Calculate the wavelength of each frequency of electromagnetic radiation: a. 100.2 MHz (typical frequency for FM radio broadcasti
Natalka [10]

Answer:

a). 100.2 MHz (typical frequency for FM radio broadcasting)

The wavelength of a frequency of 100.2 Mhz is 2.99m.

b. 1070 kHz (typical frequency for AM radio broadcasting) (assume four significant figures)

The wavelength of a frequency of 1070 khz is 280.3 m.

c. 835.6 MHz (common frequency used for cell phone communication)

The wavelength of a frequency of 835.6 Mhz is 0.35m.

Explanation:

The wavelength can be determined by the following equation:

c = \lambda \cdot \nu  (1)

Where c is the speed of light, \lambda is the wavelength and \nu is the frequency.  

Notice that since it is electromagnetic radiation, equation 1 can be used. Remember that light propagates in the form of an electromagnetic wave.

<em>a). 100.2 MHz (typical frequency for FM radio broadcasting)</em>

Then, \lambda can be isolated from equation 1:

\lambda = \frac{c}{\nu} (2)

since the value of c is 3x10^{8}m/s. It is necessary to express the frequency in units of hertz.

\nu = 100.2 MHz . \frac{1x10^{6}Hz}{1MHz} ⇒ 100200000Hz

But 1Hz = s^{-1}

\nu = 100200000s^{-1}

Finally, equation 2 can be used:

\lambda = \frac{3x10^{8}m/s}{100200000s^{-1}}

\lambda = 2.99 m

Hence, the wavelength of a frequency of 100.2 Mhz is 2.99m.

<em>b. 1070 kHz (typical frequency for AM radio broadcasting) (assume four significant figures)</em>

<em> </em>

\nu = 1070kHz . \frac{1000Hz}{1kHz} ⇒ 1070000Hz

But  1Hz = s^{-1}

\nu = 1070000s^{-1}

Finally, equation 2 can be used:

\lambda = \frac{3x10^{8}m/s}{1070000s^{-1}}

\lambda = 280.3 m

Hence, the wavelength of a frequency of 1070 khz is 280.3 m.

<em>c. 835.6 MHz (common frequency used for cell phone communication) </em>

\nu = 835.6MHz . \frac{1x10^{6}Hz}{1MHz} ⇒ 835600000Hz

But  1Hz = s^{-1}

\nu = 835600000s^{-1}

Finally, equation 2 can be used:

\lambda = \frac{3x10^{8}m/s}{835600000s^{-1}}

\lambda = 0.35 m

Hence, the wavelength of a frequency of 835.6 Mhz is 0.35m.

Displacement vectors of 4km north, 2km south, 5km north, 5km south combine to a total displacement of
goldfiish [28.3K]

<u>Answer</u>

The combined displacement is 2km north


<u>Explanation</u>


Since displacement is a vector quantity, we take into account the direction.


Good for us all the displacement vectors are in the same dimension, so we can make north positive and south negative or vice-versa.


We now add to obtain,

4+-2+5+-5

This will simplify to

=4-2+5-5=2

Therefore the combined displacement is 2km north
