Answer:

by using it's buoyant or floating effect by Archimedes.

the buoyant force act on the astronauts body and make he/ she feels like in low gravity.

the buoyant force equation is

F = Density of liquid x earth gravitational field x volume of astronauts body and suit.

the Weight of astronauts in the pools will be less than in the land or air.

Weight in water = weight in air/land - buoyant force

so the astronauts will feel like in the outer space with low gravity.

A car's fuel economy is 30 mpg. a warning light is displayed if the remaining distance that can be driven before the car runs ou

Alchen [17]

So 10 gallons of gas would let you travel 300 Miles.

x gallons = 50 Miles

10 : 300 :: x : 50

x = 500/300

x = 1.66667 gallons.

So, the car would run 10 - 1.6666 gallons = 8.33 gallons.

After that, the warning light turns ON!

Hope this helps!!

I need help on number 2 and 3

irinina [24]

For 2 draw the molucules very close together. because in soilds the molucules are VERY close to gether.

and for 3 Draw them with a lot of space apart from each other. Molucules move freely and openly in air and space.

Hope this helps! Please mark as brainliest! Thanks!! :D

The next four questions refer to the situation below.

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

t_{out} = $\frac{v_s - v_r}{v_s+v_r}$ t_{in}, t_{out} = $\frac{D}{v_s +v_r}$

Explanation:

This in a relative velocity exercise in one dimension,

let's start with the swimmer going downstream

its speed is

$v_{sg 1} = v_{sr} + v_{rg}$

The subscripts are s for the swimmer, r for the river and g for the Earth

with the velocity constant we can use the relations of uniform motion

$v_{sg1}$ = D / $t_{out}$

D = v_{sg1} t_{out}

now let's analyze when the swimmer turns around and returns to the starting point

$v_{sg 2} = v_{sr} - v_{rg}$

$v_{sg 2}$ = D / $t_{in}$

D = v_{sg 2} t_{in}

with the distance is the same we can equalize

$v_{sg1} t_{out} = v_{sg2} t_{in}$

t_{out} = t_{in}

t_{out} = $\frac{v_s - v_r}{v_s+v_r}$ t_{in}

This must be the answer since the return time is known. If you want to delete this time

t_{in}= D / $v_{sg2}$

we substitute

t_{out} = \frac{v_s - v_r}{v_s+v_r} ()

t_{out} = $\frac{D}{v_s +v_r}$

Can somebody please explain how a compass can be used to find North?

Ira Lisetskai [31]

if the pointy thingy in your compass is pointing north, that means it's being (pulled toward) something near Earth's north pole

50POINTS! Find the orbital speed of a satellite in a circular orbit 1700km above the surface of the Earth. M_earth 5.97e24kg, r_

ivolga24 [154]

<h2>Answer: 7020.117 m/s</h2>

Explanation:

The velocity of a satellite describing a circular orbit is<u> constant</u> and defined by the following expression:

$V=\sqrt{G\frac{M}{R}}$ (1)

Where:

$G=6.674({10}^{-11})\frac{N{m}^{2}}{{kg}^{2}}$ is the gravity constant

$M_{Earth}=5.97{10}^{24}kg$ the mass of the massive body around which the satellite is orbiting, in this case, the Earth .

$R=r_{Earth}+h=8080000m$ the radius of the orbit (measured from the center of the planet to the satellite).

This means the radius of the orbit is equal to <u>the sum</u> of the average radius of the Earth $r_{Earth}$ and the altitude of the satellite above the Earth's surface $h$ .

Note this orbital speed, as well as orbital period, does not depend on the mass of the satellite. It depends on the mass of the massive body (the Earth).

Now, rewriting equation (1) with the known values:

$V=\sqrt{(6.674({10}^{-11})\frac{N{m}^{2}}{{kg}^{2}})\frac{5.97{10}^{24}kg}{8080000m}}$

$V=7020.117\frac{m}{s}$
