Answer:
1- The acceleration of the object is larger in magnitude the smaller the radius of the circle.
Explanation:
The acceleration of an object in a circular path is
As can be seen from the equation, if the radius of the circle is decreases, the magnitude of the acceleration increases.
As for the direction of the acceleration, it is always towards the center, and it is always perpendicular to the direction of the velocity.
The Sun is 149.6 million kilometers from the earth.
There are 8760 hours in a year.
876000 km are traveled in a year
It would take 170.776 years to reach the sun, or 171 years rather
Answer:
1.6675×10^-16N
Explanation:
The force of gravity that the space shuttle experiences is expressed as;
g = GM/r²
G is the gravitational constant
M is the mass = 1.0 x 10^5 kg
r is the altitude = 200km = 200,000m
Substitute into the formula
g = 6.67×10^-11 × 1.0×10^5/(2×10^5)²
g = 6.67×10^-6/4×10^10
g = 1.6675×10^{-6-10}
g = 1.6675×10^-16N
Hence the force of gravity experienced by the shuttle is 1.6675×10^-16N
Answer:
The polarity of water molecules means that molecules of water will stick to each other like when unlike charges attracts. This is called hydrogen bonding.
Polarity makes water a good solvent, gives it the ability to stick to itself (cohesion), stick to other substances (adhesion), and have surface tension (due to hydrogen bonding).
When the two hydrogen atoms bond with the oxygen, they attach to the top of the molecule. This molecular structure gives the water molecule polarity, or a lopsided electrical charge that attracts other atoms. The end of the molecule with the two hydrogen atoms is positively charged.

Answer:
1250 J
Explanation:
Work is said to be done when a force causes an object to move over a distance. The amount of work done (W) is calculated by multiplying the force by the distance traveled.
That is;
W = F × d
Where;
W = work done (J or N/m)
F = force (N)
d = distance (m)
Based on the information provided in this question, F = 5000N, d = 0.25m
Hence;
W = F × d
W = 5000 × 0.25
W = 1250J
Therefore, 1250Joules of work is done by the jack.
