Answer:

Δx = 30000002.4meters

Explanation:

First you transform km/h into m/s and minutes into seconds

so we have that 28000 km/h = 5555.556m/s

and 90min = 5400s

Then you take the formula for speed when the speed is uniform which is

u = Δx/Δt

5555.556 = Δx/5400

Solving for Δx=30000002.4meters.

Answer:

how far the space shuttle is orbiting so we need to find radius of the circular path.

as speed = distance /time

28000 km/h = 2πr km / 1.5 hours

As 90 minutes= 1.5 hours

so

r = 28000×1.5 / 2π

= 28000 x 1.5 × 7/22 ×1/2

= 6681.81 km

A 75.0kg teacher (including the parachute) is skydiving! As the parachute opens, the system experiences a 1000N drag.
Ronch [10]

Answer:

Net force = 250 N

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a teacher, m = 75 kg

As the parachute opens, the system experiences a 1000N drag.

We need to find the magnitude of net force acting on the teacher. 2 forces are acting on her i.e. drag force and weight.

Net force,

F = mg-D

= 75(10)-1000

= -250 N

Hence, the net force is 250 N and it is acting in the upward direction.

I would say that there shouldn't be any calls on a plane while in-flight because you never know what someone is calling for. It can lead to a bad situation like 9/11 or any form of terrorism.

You are given a sample of metal and asked to determine its specific heat. You weigh the sample and find that its weight is 27.2
garri49 [273]

Answer:

c=326.5177 J/kg.K

Specific heat is c=326.5177 J/kg.K

Explanation:

In order ti find the specific heat, we will proceed as follow:

Formula we are going to use is:

Q=m*c*\Delta T

Where:

Q is the heat energy added

m is the mass of sample

c is the specific heat

\Delta T is the temperature Rise.

First we will find the mass:

Weight=m*g  (g is gravitational acceleration=9.8 m/s^2)

m=\frac{weight}{g} \\m=\frac{27.2}{9.8} \\m=2.7755 \ kg

Rearranging above formula:

c=\frac{Q}{m* \Delta T}

c=\frac{1.45*10^4}{2.7755*16}

c=326.5177 J/kg.K

Specific heat is c=326.5177 J/kg.K

A 5.22-kg object passes through the origin at time t = 0 such that its x component of velocity is 5.10 m/s and its y component o
Mamont248 [21]

The magnitude of the object's velocity is

         √ (5.1² + 2.82²)  =  √ (33.9624)  =  5.828 m/s .

Kinetic energy = (1/2) (M) (speed²)

                       =  (1/2) (5.22 kg) (5.828 m/s)²

                       =     (2.61 kg) (33.9624 m²/s²)

                       =          88.64    kg-m²/s²

                       =          88.64  Joules
