The radius of the earth very nearly circular orbit around the sun is
Katen [24]

Answer

given,

radius of earth,r = 1.5 x 10¹¹ m

Time,T = 365 days

         = 365 x 24 x 3600 s  

earth velocity,

v=\dfrac{2\pi r}{T}

v=\dfrac{2\pi (1.5\times 10^{11})}{365\times 24\times 3600}

    v = 3 x 10⁴ m/s

centripetal acceleration of the earth

 a = \dfrac{v^2}{r}

 a = \dfrac{(3\times 10^4)^2}{1.5\times 10^{11}}

        a = 6 x 10⁻³ m/s²

During each cycle of operation a refrigerator absorbs 56 cal from the freezer compartment and expels 81 cal tothe room. If one c
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

138.18 minutes

Explanation:

L_v = Latent heat of water at 0°C = 80 cal/g

m = Mass of water = 570 g

Heat removed for freezing

Q=mL_v\\\Rightarrow Q=570\times 80\\\Rightarrow Q=45600\ cal

Let N be the number of cycles and each cycle removes 56 cal from the freezer.

So,

55\times N=45600\\\Rightarrow N=\frac{45600}{55}

Each cycle takes 10 seconds so the total time would be

\frac{45600}{55}\times \frac{10}{60}=138.18\ minutes

The total time taken to freeze 138.18 minutes

A 20.0-kg traffic light hangs midway on a cable between two poles 30.0 meters apart. If the sag in the cable is 0.40 meters, wha
hammer [34]

Answer:

the tension in each side of the cable is 3677.57 N

Explanation:

given data

traffic light = 20 kg

cable between two poles = 30 m

sag in the cable = 0.40 m

solution

by the free body diagram

tan θ = \frac{0.4}{15}    .............1

θ = 1.527 °

and

tension = mg

The net force is along x - axis is express as

T2 cosθ = T1 cosθ     .................2

so T2 - T1     ..............3

and

when we take it along y  axis  that is express as

( T1 + T2) sinθ = mg    ...................4

so by equation 3 we put here

2 × T1 sin(1.527) = 20 × 9.8  

T1 = 3677.57 N

The u.s army’s parachuting team, the Golden Knights, are on a routine
quester [9]

The average force is -2600 N

Explanation:

First of all, we need to calculate the acceleration of the man during the collision, which is given by the suvat equation:

v^2-u^2=2as

where:

v = 0 is his final velocity (he comes to a stop)

u = 4.0 m/s is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

s = 0.20 m is the distance covered

Solving for a,

a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}=\frac{0-4.0^2}{2(0.20)}=-40 m/s^2

The negative sign indicates that it is a deceleration.

Now we can find the average force on the man by using Newton's second law of motion:

F=ma

where

m = 65 kg is the mass

a=-40 m/s^2

And substituting,

F=(65)(-40)=-2600 N

where the negative sign indicates the force is in the direction opposite to the motion.
