Answer:

16 ohms

Explanation:

V= I ⋅ R

where, V is the net potential difference in the circuit, I is the current in the circuit and R is the net resistance of the circuit.

In this case, V = 240 volts, I = 15 amperes.

240 = 15 ⋅ R

⇒ R = 240/ 15 = 16 ohms

How high would a projectile go if it was launched from ground level with an initial speed of 26 m/s at an angle of 30 degrees ab

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

Vy = 26 m/s sin 30 = 13 m/s vertical speed

t = Vy / a = 13 m/s / 9.80 m/s^2 = 1.33 sec time to reach Vy = 0

H = Vy t + 1/2 g t^2

H = 13 m/s * 1.33 sec - 1.33^2 * 9.8 / 2 m = 8.62 m

What is the orbital period of a spacecraft in a low orbit near the surface of mars? The radius of mars is 3.4×106m.

valkas [14]

<h2>Answer: 56.718 min</h2>

Explanation:

According to the Third Kepler’s Law of Planetary motion “The square of the orbital period of a planet is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis (size) of its orbit”.

In other words, this law states a relation between the orbital period $T$ of a body (moon, planet, satellite) orbiting a greater body in space with the size $a$ of its orbit.

This Law is originally expressed as follows:

$T^{2}=\frac{4\pi^{2}}{GM}a^{3}$ (1)

Where;

$G$ is the Gravitational Constant and its value is $6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}}$

$M=6.39(10)^{23}kg$ is the mass of Mars

$a=3.4(10)^{6}m$ is the semimajor axis of the orbit the spacecraft describes around Mars (assuming it is a circular orbit and a low orbit near the surface as well, the semimajor axis is equal to the radius of the orbit)
