Answer:

4) three

Explanation:

Assuming you mean 1.365248×10⁷, 2% of that is:

0.02 (1.365248×10⁷) = 0.027305×10⁷

So the number is:

1.365248×10⁷ ± 0.027305×10⁷

We need to round this number so that there is uncertainty only in the last digit.

1.37×10⁷ ± 0.03×10⁷

There are three significant figures in 1.37.

6. A satellite is orbiting Earth just above its surface. The centripetal force making the satellite follow a circular trajectory
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

Engular velocity: w=1,24*10^{-3}/s

Linear velocity: V=7905 m/s

The time it takes:

t=5060s=84min

Explanation:

The magnitude of the centripetal acceleration can be related to the angular velocity and radius as:

(1)a=r*w^{2}

Solving for w:

(2)w=\sqrt{\frac{a}{r} }

Replacing a=9,8m/s2 and r=6,375,000m:

(3)w=\sqrt{\frac{9,8m/s^{2}}{6375000m} }=1,24*10^{-3}/s

And the angular velocity relates to the linear velocity:

V=w*r=1,24*10^{-3}/s*6375000m=7905 m/s

The perimeter of the orbit is:

P=\pi *2*r=\pi *2*6375000m=40.05*10^{6}m

The time it takes:

t=\frac{P}{V} =\frac{40.05*10^{6}m}{7905 m/s}=5060s=84min

A sled that has a mass of 8 kg is pulled at a 50 degree angle with a force of 20 N. The force of friction acting on the sled is
vitfil [10]

The acceleration of the sled will be 1.30 m/s². Force is defined as the product of mass and acceleration.

<h3>What is force?</h3>

Force is defined as the push or pulls applied to the body. Sometimes it is used to change the shape, size, and direction of the body.

Given data;

m(mass of sled)=8 kg

Θ is the inclination of force= 50°

Force of friction,f=2.4 N.

The applied force at the given angle is resolved into the two-component as;

\rm F_h=F cos \theta \\\\ F_h= 20 cos 50 ^0 \\\\ F_h= 12.85 \ N

\rm F_v=F sin \theta \\\\  F_v=20 sin 50^0 \\\\   F_v=15.32 \ N

The net vertical force is zero;

\rm F_N=mg-Fsin50^0 \\\\ \rm F_N=8 \times 9.81 -15.32 \\\\ F_N=63.1 \ N \\\\

From Newton's second law the net force as;

\rm \sum F_{net}=ma \\\\ Fcos 60^0-f =ma \\\\ a=\frac{12.855-2.4}{8} \\\\a = 1.30 \ m/s^2

Hence, the acceleration of the sled will be 1.30 m/s².

A 150kg person stands on a compression spring with spring constant 10, 000 N/m and norminal.Length of 0.50.What is the togal len
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Total length of spring 0.647 m

Explanation:

We have given mass of the person m = 150 kg

Acceleration due to gravity g=9.8m/sec^2

Spring constant k = 10000 N/m

Nominal length of spring = 0.50

According to hook's law

mg=kx

150\times 9.8=10000\times x

x = 0.147 m

So total length of spring = 0.50+0.147 = 0.647 m
