A "sun yacht" is a spacecraft with a large sail that is pushed by sunlight. Although such a push is tiny in everyday circumstanc

es, it can be large enough to send the spacecraft outward from the Sun on a cost-free but slow trip. Suppose that the spacecraft has a mass of 900 kg and receives a push of 20 N. (a) What is the magnitude of the resulting acceleration? If the craft starts from rest,(b) how far will it travel in 1 day and (c) how fast will it then be moving?

Answer:

acceleration = 0.022 m/s^2

distance = 8.3 x 10^7 m

speed = 1.9 x 10 ^3 m/s

Explanation:

the parameters given are:

mass = 900kg

force = 20N

  • from the formula force = mass x acceleration

acceleration = force / mass

acceleration = 20 / 900

acceleration = 0.022 m/s^2

  • distance travelled in 1 day (86,400 seconds) = (1/2) x a x t^2

   (1/2) x 0.022 x (86,400^2) = 8.3 x 10^7 m

  • speed of the sun yatch (v) = a x t

0.22 x 86400 = 1.9 x 10 ^3 m/s

Find the separation of two points on the Moon’s surface that can just be resolved by the 200 in. (= 5.1 m) telescope at Mount Pa
rewona [7]

Answer:

The separation of the 2 points should be 50.0 meters.

Explanation:

According to Rayleigh's scattering criteria the angular separation between 2 points to be resolved equals

\theta =1.22\cdot \frac{\lambda }{D}

Applying the given values we get

\theta =1.22\cdot \frac{550\times 10^{-9} }{5.1}=0.1316\times 10^{-6}rads

thus the linear separation equals L=\theta \times Distance

Applying the given values we get

L=0.1316\times 10^{-6} \times 3.8\times 10^{5}\times 10^{3}meters\\\\\therefore L=50.00metes

How can hand tools help every technician for their safety in doing hard servicing activities​
Anni [7]

Answer: Hand tools are necessary for daily activities.

Explanation:

The hand tools are useful for day to day activities they aid in pouring substances, holding things, mixing substances, cleaning and for other purposes. In a chemical laboratory the hand tools like test tube holders can help in holding the chemicals. In a medical laboratory the forceps can be useful in holding and cutting the sections without causing any harm to the hands. Hand tools avoid the direct contact with the microorganisms in medical laboratory thus protect against infections. Hand tools aid in surgical operations and they help in avoiding direct contact with the blood vessels and organs preventing contamination and infections.

A circular loop of radius 0.0400 m is
Alenkinab [10]

Let's see

Find enclosed area of loop

\\ \rm\dashrightarrow \pi r^2

\\ \rm\dashrightarrow 3.14(0.04)^2

\\ \rm\dashrightarrow 0.005m^2

Now

\\ \rm\dashrightarrow \phi=BAcos\theta

  • We need B

\\ \rm\dashrightarrow 9.59\times 10^{-7}=B(0.005)cos75

\\ \rm\dashrightarrow 9.59\times 10^{-7}=0.0046B

\\ \rm\dashrightarrow B=2084.78\times 10^{-7}

\\ \rm\dashrightarrow B=2.08\times 10^{-4}T

\\ \rm\dashrightarrow B=0.208mT
