Answer:

2 /s north

Explanation:

Given that,

Velocity due North is 8 m/s and due south is 6 m/s

We need to find the magnitude and the direction of the resulting velocity.

Let North is positive and South is negative. When two velocities are in opposite direction, they adds up. So,

v=8+(-6)\\\\v=2\ m/s

It is positive. So, it is in North direction.

As a moon follows its orbit around a planet, the maximum gravitational force exerted on the moon by the planet exceeds the minim
professor190 [17]

Answer:

rmax/rmin = √1.127

Explanation:

F = GmM / r²

As the masses can be assumed to be constant, the force between the two is proportional to the inverse of the square of the distance between them

(Fmax - Fmin) / Fmin = 0.127

           (Fmax - Fmin) = 0.127Fmin

       1/rmin² - 1/rmax² = 0.127(1/rmax²)

                      1/rmin² = 0.127(1/rmax²) + 1/rmax²

                      1/rmin² = 1.127(1/rmax²)

              rmax²/rmin² = 1.127

                 rmax/rmin = √1.127 ≈ 1.06160256...

In object of mass 30 kg is in freefall in a vacuum where there is no air resistance determine the acceleration of the object
Leto [7]
The free fall acceleration due to the Earth's gravity will always be 9.8m/s^2. So, if this question is taking place on Earth, then the acceleration of an object in free fall is 9.8m/^2.

You perform a double‑slit experiment in order to measure the wavelength of the new laser that you received for your birthday. Yo
BigorU [14]

Answer:

\lambda = 6.25\times10^{-9}= 625 nm

Explanation:

We now that for

for maximum intensity(bright fringe) d sinθ=nλ n=0,1,2,....

d= distance between the slits, λ= wavelength of incident ray

for small θ, sinθ≈tanθ= y/D where y is the distance on screen and D is the distance b/w screen and slits.

Given

d=1.19 mm, y=4.97 cm,  and,   n=10,   D=9.47 m

applying formula

λ= (d*y)/(D*n)

putting values we get

\lambda = \frac{1.19\times10^{-3}\times4.97\times10^{-2}}{9.47\times10}

on solving we get

\lambda = 6.25\times10^{-9}= 625 nm
