What is the primary reason that astronomers put telescopes and other instruments above Earth's atmosphere?

Physics

The main reason as to why those telescopes that are located above the Earth's atmosphere is because the atmosphere absorbs infrared light which comes from the sun and this affects the viewing done by the astronomers. That is why, this is considered as a great disadvantage for those ground-based telescopes. The answer would be the last option.

A box weighing 52.4 N is sliding on a rough horizontal floor with a constant friction force of magnitude LaTeX: ff. The box's in
german

Answer:

The magnitude of the friction force exerted on the box is 2.614 newtons.

Explanation:

Since the box is sliding on a rough horizontal floor, then it is decelerated solely by friction force due to the contact of the box with floor. The free body diagram of the box is presented herein as attachment. The equation of equilbrium for the box is:

\Sigma F = -f = m\cdot a (Eq. 1)

Where:

f - Kinetic friction force, measured in newtons.

m - Mass of the box, measured in kilograms.

a - Acceleration experimented by the box, measured in meters per square second.

By applying definitions of weight (W = m\cdot g) and uniform accelerated motion (v = v_{o}+a\cdot t), we expand the previous expression:

-f = \left(\frac{W}{g} \right)\cdot \left(\frac{v-v_{o}}{t}\right)

And the magnitude of the friction force exerted on the box is calculated by this formula:

f = -\left(\frac{W}{g} \right)\cdot \left(\frac{v-v_{o}}{t}\right) (Eq. 1b)

Where:

W - Weight, measured in newtons.

g - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

v_{o} - Initial speed, measured in meters per second.

v - Final speed, measured in meters per second.

t - Time, measured in seconds.

If we know that W = 52.4\,N, g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}, v_{o} = 1.37\,\frac{m}{s}, v = 0\,\frac{m}{s} and t = 2.8\,s, the magnitud of the kinetic friction force exerted on the box is:

f = -\left(\frac{52.4\,N}{9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} } \right)\cdot \left(\frac{0\,\frac{m}{s}-1.37\,\frac{m}{s}  }{2.8\,s} \right)

f = 2.614\,N

The magnitude of the friction force exerted on the box is 2.614 newtons.

A 12 oz can of soda is left in a car on a hot day. In the morning the soda temperature was 60oF with a gauge pressure of 40 psi.
Neko [114]
In this case, volume of the can remains constant. The relationship between pressure and temperature at constant volume is given by:

P/T = Constant

Then
\frac{ P_{1} }{ T_{1} } = \frac{ P_{2} }{ T_{2} }

Where
P1 = 40 psi
P2 = ?
T1 = 60°F ≈ 289 K
T2 = 90°F ≈ 305 K (note, 363 K is not right)

Substituting;
P_{2} = \frac{ P_{1}  T_{2} }{ T_{1} } = \frac{40*305}{289}  =42.21 psi

A light string is wrapped around the edge of the smaller disk, and a 1.50 kg block is suspended from the free end of the string.
LenaWriter [7]

Answer: 7.41 m/s

Explanation: By using the law of of energy, kinetic energy of the brick as it falls equals the potential energy before falling.

Kinetic energy = mv²/2, potential energy = mgh

mv²/2 = mgh

v²/2 = gh

v² = 2gh

v = √2gh

Where g = 9.8 m/s², h = 2.80m

v = √2×9.8×2.8 = 7.41 m/s
