Answer:

T = (27 da * 24 hr/da + 7 hr + 43 min/60 min/hr) * 3600 sec/hr = 2.36 * 10E6 sec       period of moon in sec

C = v t  = 2 pi R        circumference of orbit where v is orbital speed

ac (centripetal acceleration) =  v^2 / R = v^2 / (v t / 2 pi) = 2 pi v / t

ac = 2 pi * 1.03 * 10E3 m/s / 2.36 * 10E6 sec = 2.74 * 10E-3 m /s^2

A 36,287 kg truck has a momentum of 907,175 kg • . What is the truck’s velocity?
Snowcat [4.5K]
By definition,
Momentum = Mass * Velocity

Let v =  the velocity of the truck, m/s
The mass of the truck is 36,287 kg.
The momentum is 907,175 (kg-m)/s.

Therefore
907,175 (kg-m)/s = (36287 kg)*(v m/s)
v = 907175/36287 = 25 m/s

Answer: 25 m/s

What will happen to the 0.1 N force if one charges is increased by a factor of 3?
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

Force between two charges is given by the following expression

F = \frac{KQ_1Q_2}{d^2}  Q₁ and Q₂ are two charges and d is distance between two.

.1 = \frac{KQ_1Q_2}{d^2}

If Q₁ becomes three times , force will become 3 times . Hence force becomes .3 N in the first case.

Force F = .3 N

If charge becomes one fourth , force also becomes one fourth .

F= \frac{.1}{4}

= .025 N.
