A. 1/9

Explanation:

The gravitational force between two objects is given by

F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

m1 and m2 are the two masses

r is the distance between the two masses

From the formula, we see that the magnitude of the force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance: therefore, if the distance is tripled (increased by a factor 3), the magnitude of the force changes by a factor

\frac{1}{r^2}=\frac{1}{3^2}=\frac{1}{9}

A truck contains both hydraulic brakes (reliability 0.96) and mechanical brakes (reliability 0.99). What is the probability of s
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

i) 0.9504

ii) 0.0452

Explanation:

Given data: reliability of hydraulic brakes= 0.96

reliability of mechanical brakes = 0.99

So the probability of stopping the truck = 0.96×0.99= 0.9504

At low speed

case: A works and B does not

= 0.96×(1-0.99) = 0.0096

case2 : B works and A does not

= 0.99×(1-0.96) = 0.0396

Therefore, probality of stopping = 0.0096+0.0396 = 0.0492

A motorcycle starts to move from rest. If the velocity of the motorcycle becomes 90 km/hr
bagirrra123 [75]

Explanation:

90 kmhr—1 x 1000/3600 = 25ms—1

U = 0 ms—1

V = 25ms—1

t = 10 s

a = ?

a = V - U/t

a = 25 - 0/10

a = 25/10

a = 2.5 ms—1
