Explanation:

The initial velocity of the bullet was 3.5m per sec because on a frictionless surface a bullet can't be stopped as there is no force opposing the bullet and as the bullet must be fired in certain velocity, we can say that the initial velocity of the bullet was 3.5mper sec.

How much force is needed to keep the 750000 Newton Space Shuttle moving at a constant speed of 28000 km/h, in a straight line?
Alika [10]

The force needed to keep the space shuttle moving at constant speed is 0.

The given parameters;

  • <em>weight of the space shuttle, F = 750,000 N</em>
  • <em>constant speed of the space shuttle, v = 28,000 km/h</em>

The mass of the space shuttle is calculated as follows;

W = mg\\\\m = \frac{W}{g} \\\\m = \frac{750,000}{9.8} \\\\m = 76,530.61 \ kg

The force needed to keep the space shuttle moving at constant speed is calculated as follows;

F = ma

F = 76,530.61 \times a

where;

a is the acceleration of the space shuttle

At a constant speed, acceleration is zero.

F = 76,530.61 x 0

F = 0

Thus, the force needed to keep the space shuttle moving at constant speed is 0.

Which of the following is an example of acceleration?
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

c

Explanation:

When a satellite is orbiting the earth , a constant force is being applied on it which means it must has acceleration. Also the direction of satellite is always being changed when it is orbitting to there is always change in the velocity vector which means acceleration.

You can view in the attached diagram to understand how the velocity is being changed.

An 800-kHz radio signal is detected at a point 2.7 km distant from a transmitter tower. The electric field amplitude of the sign
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

Option D is correct: 170 µW/m²

Explanation:

Given that,

Frequency f = 800kHz

Distance d = 2.7km = 2700m

Electric field Eo = 0.36V/m

Intensity of radio signal

The intensity of radial signal is given as

I = c•εo•Eo²/2

Where c is speed of light

c = 3×10^8m/s

εo = 8.85 × 10^-12 C²/Nm²

I = 3×10^8 × 8.85×10^-12 × 0.36²/2

I = 1.72 × 10^-4W/m²

I = 172 × 10^-6 W/m²

I = 172 µW/m²

Then, the intensity of the radio wave at that point is approximately 170 µW/m²
