Answer: Decreasing the distance of the space shuttle from Earth .

Explanation:

According to expression of gravitational force:

F=\frac{G\times m_1\times m_2}{r^2}

G = gravitational constant

m_1, m_2 = masses of two objects

r = Distance between the two objects.

F = Gravitational force

From the above expression we can say that gravitational force is inversely proportional to squared of the distance between the two masses.

F\propto \frac{1}{r^2}

So, in order to increase the gravitational force on space shuttle distance between the space space shuttle  must be decreased.

Hence, the correct answer 'decreasing the distance of the space shuttle from Earth '.

A ball is thrown vertically upwards from the edge of the cliff and hits the ground at the base of the cliff with a speed of 30 m
olya-2409 [2.1K]

To solve this problem we will apply the linear motion kinematic equations. From the definition of the final velocity, as the sum between the initial velocity and the product between the acceleration (gravity) by time, we will find the final velocity. From the second law of kinematics, we will find the vertical position traveled.

v = v_0 -gt

Here,

v = Final velocity

v_0 = Initial velocity

g = Acceleration due to gravity

t = Time

At t = 4s, v = -30m/s (Downward)

Therefore the initial velocity will be

-30 = v_0 -9.8(4)

v_0 = 9.2m/s

Now the position can be calculated as,

y = h +v_0t -\frac{1}{2}gt^2

When it has the ground, y=0 and the time is t=4s,

0 = h+(9.2)(4)-\frac{1}{2} (9.8)(4)^2

h = 41.6m

Therefore the cliff was initially to 41.6m from the ground

Light of wavelength 600 nm passes though two slits separated by 0.22mm and is observed on a screen 1.1m behind the slits. The lo
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

y(m=1)=\frac{(1)(600*10^{-9}m)(1.1m)}{0.22m}=3*10^{-6}m\\\\y(m=1)=\frac{(-1)(600*10^{-9}m)(1.1m)}{0.22m}=-3*10^{-6}m

Explanation:

We have to take into account the expression for the position of the fringes

dsen\theta=m\lambda\\y=\frac{m\lambda D}{d}

where m is the number of the maximum, d is the separation of the slits, D is the distance to the screen.

(a) By replacing we obtain

y(m=1)=\frac{(1)(600*10^{-9}m)(1.1m)}{0.22m}=3*10^{-6}m\\\\y(m=1)=\frac{(-1)(600*10^{-9}m)(1.1m)}{0.22m}=-3*10^{-6}m

(b)  more information is required to solve this point. Please complete the information.

HOPE THIS HELPS!

What temperature is required to transfer waste heat to the environment for a heat engine to be 100 percent efficient?
OLEGan [10]
This can be seen as a trick question because heat engines can typically never be 100 percent efficient. This is due to the presence of inefficiencies such as friction and heat loss to the environment. Even the best heat engines can only go up to around 50% efficiency.
