Mechanical waves definitely CANNOT travel through the vacuum of space, and electromagnetic waves definitely CAN. I can't say anything about evidentiary or circumstantial ones ... I don't even know what they are.

Researchers in the Antarctic measure the temperature to be -32°F. What is this temperature on the following scales?(a) the Celsi
Illusion [34]
Answer:

a) -35.6°C

b) 237.4 K

Explanation:

To convert temperature from degree celsius to degree fahrenheit, use the formula below:

T_c=\frac{5}{9}(T_f-32)

a) Therefore to convert -32°F to celsius, substitute it into the celsius

\begin{gathered} T_c=\frac{5}{9}(-32-32) \\  \\ T_c=\frac{5}{9}(-64) \\  \\ T_c=-35.6^0C \end{gathered}

b) To covert to the Kelvin scale, use the formula below

\begin{gathered} T_k=T_c+273 \\  \\ T_k=-35.6+273 \\  \\ T_k=237.4K \\  \end{gathered}

"The International Space Station (ISS) orbits at a distance of 350 km above the surface of the Earth. (a) Determine the gravitat
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

(a) g = 8.82158145m/s^2.

(b) 7699.990192m/s.

(c)5484.3301s = 1.5234 hours.(extremely fast).

Explanation:

(a) Strength of gravitational field 'g' by definition is

g = \frac{M_{(earth)} }{r^2} G , here G is Gravitational Constant, and r is distance from center of earth, all the values will remain same except r which will be radius of earth + altitude at which ISS is in orbit.

r = 6721,000 meters, putting this value in above equation gives g = 8.82158145m/s^2.

(b) We have to essentially calculate centripetal acceleration that equals new 'g'.

a_{centripetal}=\frac{V^2}{r} =g here g is known, r is known and v is unknown.

plugging in r and g in above and solving for unknown gives V = 7699.990192m/s.

(c)  S = vT,  here T is time period or time required to complete one full revolution.

S =  earth's circumfrence , V is calculated in (B) T is unknown.

solving for unknown gives T = 5484.3301s = 1.5234hours.

Consider an elevator with a table and a book on top of the table. The mass of the table is 10kg and the mass of the book is 2kg.
Step2247 [10]

Newton's second law allows us to find the force of the block on the table is 126 N

Newton's second law says that the net force is proportional to the product of the mass and the acceleration of the body

                Σ F = m a

Where the bold letters indicate vectors, m is the mass and the acceleration of the body

A free body diagram is a diagram where the forces are represented without the details of the bodies, in the attached we can see a free body diagram of the system.

Let's start by finding the acceleration of the elevator with kinematics  

                 v = v₀ + a t

                 a = \frac{v-v_o}{a}  

Where v and v₀ are the current and initial velocity, respectively, at acceleration and t is the time

                 a = \frac{8-1}{2}

                 a = 3.5 m / s²

Let's write Newton's second law for each body

The book

                N₂ - W₂ + N₁ = m a

               

Table

                N₁ - W₁ - W₂ = M a

                W₁ = Mg

                W₂ = mg

                N₁ = (M + m) g + M a

                N₁ = (10 + 2) 9.8 + 10 3.5

                N₁ = 152.6 N

This is the reaction of the earth to the support of the block and the table

               N₂ = ma + m g  - N₁

               N₂ = m ( a +g) - N₁  

               N₂ = 2 (3.5 + 9.8) - 152.6

               N₂ = 26.6 - 152.6

               N₂ = -126 N

The negative sign indicates that the direction is opposite to the one assigned, this is the action of the block on the table.

In conclusion using Newton's second law we can find the forces of the block on the table is 126 N
