Answer:

Zero; no force is required to keep it going

Explanation:

Since the cannon ball is fired into frictionless space, there will be nothing to stop it, so it will keep going and going.

8.) If a car moving at 50km/h skids 15m with locked brakes, how far does the same car moving at 100km/h

pantera1 [17]

(8) A car starting with a speed v skids to a stop over a distance d, which means the brakes apply an acceleration a such that

0² - v² = 2 a d → a = - v² / (2d)

Then the car comes to rest over a distance of

d = - v² / (2a)

Doubling the starting speed gives

- (2v)² / (2a) = - 4v² / (2a) = 4d

so the distance traveled is quadrupled, and it would move a distance of 4 • 15 m = 60 m.

Alternatively, you can explicitly solve for the acceleration, then for the distance:

A car starting at 50 km/h ≈ 13.9 m/s skids to a stop in 15 m, so locked brakes apply an acceleration a such that

0² - (13.9 m/s)² = 2 a (15 m) → a ≈ -6.43 m/s²

So the same car starting at 100 km/h ≈ 27.8 m/s skids to stop over a distance d such that

0² - (27.8 m/s)² = 2 (-6.43 m/s²) d → d ≈ 60 m

(9) Pushing the lever down 1.2 m with a force of 50 N amounts to doing (1.2 m) (50 N) = 60 J of work. So the load on the other end receives 60 J of potential energy. If the acceleration due to gravity is taken to be approximately 10 m/s², then the load has a mass m such that

60 J = m g h

where g = 10 m/s² and h is the height it is lifted, 1.2 m. Solving for m gives

m = (60 J) / ((10 m/s²) (1.2 m)) = 5 kg

(10) Is this also multiple choice? I'm not completely sure, but something about the weight of the tractor seems excessive. It would help to see what the options might be.

An electric field from a charge has a magnitude of 1.5 × 104 N/C at a certain location that points inward. If another charge wit

zysi [14]

Answer:

-0.045 N, they will attract each other

Explanation:

The strength of the electrostatic force exerted on a charge is given by

$F=qE$

where

q is the magnitude of the charge

E is the electric field magnitude

In this problem,

$q=3.0\cdot 10^{-6}C$

$E=-1.5\cdot 10^4 N/C$ (negative because inward)

So the strength of the electrostatic force is

$F=(-3.0\cdot 10^{-6}C)(1.5\cdot 10^4 N/C)=-0.045 N$

Moreover, the charge will be attracted towards the source of the electric field. In fact, the text says that the electric field points inward: this means that the source charge is negative, so the other charge (which is positive) is attracted towards it.

Space debris left from old satellites and their launchers is becoming a hazard to other satellites. (a) Calculate the speed of a

Pie

Answer:

Part a)

$v = 7407.1 m/s$

Part b)

$v_{rel} = 1.05 \times 10^4 m/s$

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that orbital velocity at certain height from the surface of Earth is given as

$v = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{R+h}}$

here we know that

$M = 5.98 \times 10^{24} kg$

$R = 6.37 \times 10^6 m$

$h = 900 km = 9.0 \times 10^5 m$

now we have

$v = \sqrt{\frac{(6.67 \times 10^{-11})(5.98 \times 10^{24})}{6.37 \times 10^6 + 9.0 \times 10^5}}$

$v = 7407.1 m/s$

Part b)

When a loose rivet is moving in same orbit but at 90 degree with the previous orbit path then in that case the relative speed of the rivet with respect to the satellite is given as

$v_{rel} = \sqrt{2} v$

$v_{rel} = 1.05 \times 10^4 m/s$
