Answer:

 t = 1.51 hours

Explanation:

given,

Speed of space shuttle. v = 27800 Km/h

Radius of earth, R = 6380 Km

height of shuttle above earth, h = 320 Km

Total radius of the shuttle orbit

r' = R + h

r' = 6380 + 320

r' = 6700 Km

distance, d = 2 π r

   d = 2 π x 6700

time = \dfrac{distance}{speed}

time = \dfrac{2\pi\times 6700}{27800}

 t = 1.51 hours

Time require by the shuttle to circle the earth is equal to 1.51 hr.

You've probably seen how the surface of a tire can partially melt and leave a mark on the road when a car's brakes are applied r
yan [13]

Answer:

tire marks are due to the increase in thermal energy

Explanation:

When a tire is spinning at a given speed when the brakes are applied hard, the friction between the tire's particulate and the ground surface is high enough that some tire particles are transferred to the ground.

This is reflected in the heat transfer from the tire to the ground.

Consequently, tire marks are due to the increase in thermal energy and the change in the friction force of the tire.

A baseball is thrown a velocity of 20 m/s. It takes the 20 kg ball 10 seconds 5 points
liberstina [14]

Answer: 40 Newton

Explanation:

Mass of baseball = 20 kg

Velocity of baseball = 20 m/s.

Time taken for throwing = 10 seconds

Since acceleration is the rate of change of velocity per unit time

i.e Acceleration = velocity / time taken

Acceleration = (20 m/s / 10seconds)

Acceleration = 2m/s^2

Now, force required to throw the baseball is a product of mass and acceleration

i.e Force = Mass x acceleration

Force = 20 kg x 2m/s^2

Force = 40Newton

Thus, 40 newton of force is required to throw baseball to reach the plate
