The gravitational attraction between the Earth and the Hubble telescope is given by:

F=G\frac{M m}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the Earth's mass

m is the Hubble mass

r is the distance of the Hubble telescope from the earth's center


By rearranging the equation and substituting the numbers given by the problem, we find the mass of the telescope:

m=\frac{F r^2}{GM}=\frac{(9.21 \cdot 10^4 N)(6.94 \cdot 10^6 m)^2}{(6.67 \cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2} )(5.98 \cdot 10^{24}kg) }  = 11121 kg

Unit of speed is derived unit why​
madam [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Therefore, the unit of speed is the meter per second, or m/s. The unit meter per second is called a derived unit, meaning that it is derived from the seven SI base units.

Determine the magnitude of the resultant force acting on a 1.5 −kg particle at the instant t=2 s, if the particle is moving alon
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

F = 63N

Explanation:

M= 1.5kg , t= 2s, r = (2t + 10)m and

Θ = (1.5t² - 6t).

magnitude of the resultant force acting on 1.5kg = ?

Force acting on the mass =

∑Fr =MAr

Fr = m(∇r² - rθ²) ..........equation (i)

∑Fθ = MAθ = M(d²θ/dr + 2dθ/dr) ......... equation (ii)

The horizontal path is defined as

r = (2t + 10)

dr/dt = 2, d²r/dt² = 0

Angle Θ is defined by

θ = (1.5t² - 6t)

dθ/dt = 3t, d²θ/dt² = 3

at t = 2

r = (2t + 10) = (2*(2) +10) = 14

but dr/dt = 2m/s and d²r/dt² = 0m/s

θ = (1.5(2)² - 6(2) ) = -6rads

dθ/dt =3(2) - 6 = 0rads

d²θ/dt = 3rad/s²

substituting equation i into equation ii,

Fr = M(d²r/dt² + rdθ/dt) = 1.5 (0-0)

∑F = m[rd²θ/dt² + 2dr/dt * dθ/dt]

∑F = 1.5(14*3+0) = 63N

F = √(Fr² +FΘ²) = √(0² + 63²) = 63N

A .140kg baseball traveling 35.0m/s strikes the catchers mit bringing the ball to rest, recoils backward 11.0cm what’s the avera
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Average force applied by the call on the glove = 780 N

Explanation:

mass of baseball=0.140 kg

initial velocity = Vi= 35 m/s

Final velocity=Vf= 0

distance traveled=11 cm= 0.11 m

using the kinematic equation Vf²= Vi²+ 2 a d

where a = acceleration

0²= 35²+ 2 a (0.11)

a=-5568.2 m/s²

Now force is given by F= ma

F= 0.140 (5568.2)

F=-780 N

The negative sign signifies that the force acts in the opposite direction.

so the average force= 780 N

A planar electromagnetic wave is propagating in the +x direction. At a certain point P and at a given instant, the electric fiel
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

B=2.74\times 10^{-10}\ T

Explanation:

It is given that,

A planar electromagnetic wave is propagating in the +x direction.The electric field at a certain point is, E = 0.082 V/m

We need to find the magnetic vector of the wave at the point P at that instant.

The relation between electric field and magnetic field is given by :

c=\dfrac{E}{B}

c is speed of light

B is magnetic field

B=\dfrac{E}{c}\\\\B=\dfrac{0.082}{3\times 10^8}\\\\B=2.74\times 10^{-10}\ T

So, the magnetic vector at point P at that instant is 2.74\times 10^{-10}\ T.
