A force of 20. Newtons to the left exerted on a cart for 10. Seconds. For what period of time must a 50.-newton force to the rig

Impulse = (force) x (time)

The first impulse was (20 N) x (10 sec) = 200 meters/sec

The second one is (50 N) x (time) and we want it equal to the first one, so

(50 N) x (time) = 200 meters/sec

Divide each side by 50N :    Time = 200/50 = <em>4 seconds</em>

By the way, the quantity we're playing with here is the cart's <em>momentum</em>.

From the gravitational law calculate the weight W (gravitational force with respect to the earth) of a 89-kg man in a spacecraft
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

W=\frac{773}{4.45}=173.76 l b f

Explanation:

W=\frac{G \cdot m_{e} \cdot m}{(R+h)^{2}}

The law of gravitation

G=6.673\left(10^{-11}\right) m^{3} /\left(k g \cdot s^{2}\right)

Universal gravitational constant [S.I. units]

m_{e}=5.976\left(10^{24}\right) k g

Mass of Earth [S.I. units]

m=89 kg

Mass of a man in a spacecraft [S.I. units]

R=6371 \mathrm{~km}

Earth radius [km]

Distance between man and the earth's surface

h=261 \mathrm{~km} \quad[\mathrm{~km}]

ESULT W=\frac{6.673\left(10^{-11}\right) \cdot 5.976\left(10^{24}\right) \cdot 89}{\left(6371 \cdot 10^{3}+261 \cdot 10^{3}\right)^{2}}=773.22 \mathrm{~N}

W=\frac{773}{4.45}=173.76 l b f

Un lector de DVD, la velocidad de giro es de 5400 rpm. determina el valor velocidad angular en rad/s,la frecuencia y el periodo
zubka84 [21]

Responder:

A) ω = 565.56 rad / seg

B) f = 90Hz

C) 0.011111s

Explicación:

Dado que:

Velocidad = 5400 rpm (revolución por minuto)

La velocidad angular (ω) = 2πf

Donde f = frecuencia

ω = 5400 rev / minuto

1 minuto = 60 segundos

2πrad = I revolución

Por lo tanto,

ω = 5400 * (rev / min) * (1 min / 60s) * (2πrad / 1 rev)

ω = (5400 * 2πrad) / 60 s

ω = 10800πrad / 60 s

ω = 180πrad / seg

ω = 565.56 rad / seg

SI)

Dado que :

ω = 2πf

donde f = frecuencia, ω = velocidad angular en rad / s

f = ω / 2π

f = 565.56 / 2π

f = 90.011669

f = 90 Hz

C) Periodo (T)

Recordar T = 1 / f

Por lo tanto,

T = 1/90

T = 0.0111111s

A parallel-plate air capacitor is made from two plates 0.210 m square, spaced 0.815 cm apart. it is connected to a 120 v battery
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

at the beginning: 2.3\cdot 10^{-10} F

when the plates are pulled apart: 1.1\cdot 10^{-10} F

Explanation:

The capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor is given by

C=k \epsilon_0 \frac{A}{d}

where

k is the relative permittivity of the medium (for air, k=1, so we can omit it)

\epsilon_0 = 8.85\cdot 10^{-12} F/m is the permittivity of free space

A is the area of the plates of the capacitor

d is the separation between the plates

In this problem, we have:

A=0.210 m^2 is the area of the plates

d=0.815 cm=8.15\cdot 10^{-3} m is the separation between the plates at the beginning

Substituting into the formula, we find

C=(1)(8.85\cdot 10^{-12}F/m)\frac{0.210 m^2}{8.15\cdot 10^{-3} m}=2.3\cdot 10^{-10} F

Later, the plates are pulled apart to d=1.63 cm=0.0163 m, so the capacitance becomes

C=(1)(8.85\cdot 10^{-12}F/m)\frac{0.210 m^2}{0.0163 m}=1.1\cdot 10^{-10} F

Imagine Two Artificial Satellites Orbiting Earth At The Same Distance. One Satellite Has A Greater Mass Than The Other One? Whic
Bad White [126]

After reading this whole question, I feel like I've already
earned 5 points !

-- Two satellites at the same distance, different masses:

The forces of gravity between two objects are directly
proportional to the product of the objects' masses.  In
other words, the gravitational forces between the Earth
and an object on its surface are proportional to the mass of
the object.  In other words, people with more mass weigh more
on the Earth, and the Earth weighs more on them. 

If the satellites are both at the same distance from Earth,
then the Earth pulls on the one with more mass with greater
force, and also the one with more mass pulls on the Earth
with greater force.

-- Two satellites with the same mass, at different distances:

The forces of gravity between two objects are inversely
proportional to the square of the distance between them. 
In other words, the gravitational forces between the Earth
and an object are inversely proportional to the square of
the distance between the object and the center of the Earth. 

If the satellites both have the same mass, then the Earth
pulls on the nearer one with greater force, and also the
nearer one pulls on the Earth with greater force.

-- Resistor in a circuit when the voltage changes:

The resistance depends on how the resistor was manufactured. 
Its resistance is marked on it, and doesn't change.  It remains
the same whether the voltage changes, the current changes,
the time of day changes, the cost of oil changes, etc.

If you increase the voltage in the circuit where that resistor is
installed, the current through the resistor increases.  If the current
remains constant, then you can be sure that somebody snuck over
to your circuit when you weren't looking, and they either installed
another resistor in series with the original one to make the total
resistance bigger, or else they snipped the original one out of the
circuit and quickly connected one with more resistance in its place.
