The correct answer is D) The closet point in the Moon's orbit to Earth

This does not refer to the Moon only. It refers to any satellite and to its closest point to Earth.

Kate, a bungee jumper, wants to jump off the edge of a bridge that spans a river below. Kate has a mass m, and the surface of th
Zolol [24]

Answer:

Point motion will eventually stops due to action of g exactly perpendicular...

Explanation:

If ignoring the air resistance, the magnitude of gravitational acceleration is already strong enough to stops the acceleration. As we know that, the spring constant of a bungee spring cord will be F = -k/x, where x is the stretched length and k is the spring constant of bungee cord. If F = ma = w = mg, the g = -m  k/x. Now we can clearly see that the value of g remains constant due to the fluctuating length of the cord as the motion progresses back and forth in SHM say from x1 to x2 and x2 to x1.

What is the kinetic energy of a hammer that starts from rest and decreases its potential energy by 10 kJ?
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

final kinetic energy of the hammer is 10 kJ

Explanation:

As we know that there is no non conservative force on the system

So here we can use the theory of mechanical energy conservation

So we will have

\Delta K + \Delta U = 0

here we know that

\Delta U = - 10 kJ

from above expression now

K_f - K_i - 10 kJ = 0

K_f - 0 = 10 kJ

so final kinetic energy of the hammer is 10 kJ

Give at least one fact about subatomic particles
victus00 [196]

Answer:

- Particles smaller than atoms are called subatomic particles .

- There are three famous subatomic particles, proton, neutron and electron .

- The study of sub atomic particles are called particle physics

- These particles can be divided as Brayons and Leptons

- These particles are often held together by one of the four fundamental particles ( Weak force, strong force, electromagnetic force, gravitational force).

A child of mass 40.0 kg is in a roller coaster car that travels in a loop of radius 7.00 m. at point a the speed of the car is 1
pav-90 [236]
I attached the missing picture.
The force of seat acting on the child is a reaction the force of child pressing down on the seat. This is the third Newton's law. The force of a child pressing down the seat and the force of the seat pushing up on the child are the same.
There two forces acting on the child. The first one is the gravitational force and the second one is centrifugal force. In this example, the force of gravity is always pulling down, but centrifugal force always acts away from the center of circular motion.
Part A
For point A we have:
F_a=F_cf-F_g
In this case, the forces are aligned, centrifugal is pointing up and gravitational is pulling down.
F_a=m\frac{v^2}{r}-mg=179 $N
Part B
At the point, B situation is a bit more complicated. In this case force of gravity and centrifugal force are not aligned. We have to look at y components of this forces, y-axis, in this case, is just pointing upward.
F=F_{cf}\cos(30)-mg=m\frac{v^2}{r}\cos(30)-mg=153.2$N
Part C
The child will stay in place at point A when centrifugal force and force of gravity are in balance:
F_g=F_{cf}\\
mg=m\frac{v^2}{r}\\
gr=v^2\\
v=\sqrt{gr}=8.29\frac{m}{s}
