Harry and Hagrid needed to get money out of Gringotts bank. The bank cart was accelerating at a rate of 4 m/s2 and it had a mass

of 8,000 kg. What is the net force acting on the cart?

Sorry if i'm too late but i'm afraid Bubbletealuv's answer is incorrect.

If the cart had a mass of 8,000 kg and it was accelerating at a rate of 4 m/s2

Using the formula Force = mass * acceleration

The net force on the cart = 8000*4

= 32000 Newton

F=m•a(squared)
F=8,000•4(squared)
F=8,000•16
F=128,000
then divide by 2 which is
64,000 Joules

Which of kepler’s laws explains why the sun has a slightly larger angular diameter in january than in july?

Bond [772]

Kepler’s three law is the answer. Kepler’s 3 is the amount of time it takes to orbit the sun is related to size and distance. Kepler’s 3 is one of the planetary motion and can be stated as all planets move in elliptical orbits, having the sun sits at one of the foci.

Sonia was experimenting with electric charges. She tied two inflated balloons together, held them next to each other, and rubbed

lions [1.4K]

Answer: They will repel each other.

Explanation:

Two inflated balloons when rubbed with woolen cloth will lead to repeal each other because of the similar charges on both the balloons.

Rubbing both the balloons together by the woolen cloth will introduce negative charge in the balloons.

As, we know that the same charges repeal each other both of the balloons with be apart from each other.

This is due to the static electricity, the negatively charged particles jump to the positive one. When balloons are rubbed they become negatively charged.

A ship sets sail from Rotterdam, The Netherlands, heading due north at 8.00 m/s relative to the water. The local ocean current i

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

The velocity of the ship relative to the earth V = 9.05 $\frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

The local ocean current is = 1.52 m/s

Direction $\theta$ = 40°

Velocity component in X - direction $V_{x}$ = 1.52 $\cos 40$ °

$V_{x}$ = 1.164 $\frac{m}{s}$

Velocity component in Y - direction $V_{y}$ = 8 + 1.52 $\sin 40$ °

$V_{y}$ = 8.97 $\frac{m}{s}$

The velocity of the ship relative to the earth

$V = \sqrt{V_{x}^{2} + V_{y} ^{2} }$

Put the values of $V_{x}$ and $V_{y}$ we get,

⇒ $V = \sqrt{1.164^{2} + 8.97 ^{2} }$

⇒ V = 9.05 $\frac{m}{s}$

This is the velocity of the ship relative to the earth.

(a) At what height above Earth’s surface is the energy required to lift a satellite to that height equal to the kinetic energy r

Nikitich [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Gravitational Potential Energy at earth surface $U_1=\frac{GM_em}{R_e}$

Gravitational Potential Energy at height h is $U_2=\frac{GM_em}{R_e+h}$

Energy required to lift the satellite $E_1=U_1-U_2$

$E_1=\frac{GM_em}{R_e}-\frac{GM_em}{R_e+h}$

Now Energy required to orbit around the earth

$E_2=\frac{1}{2}mv_{orbit}^2=\frac{GM_2m}{2(R_e+h)}$

$\Delta E=E_1-E_2$

$\Delta E=\frac{GM_em}{R_e}-\frac{GM_em}{R_e+h}-\frac{GM_2m}{2(R_e+h)}$

$E_1=E_2$ (given)

$\frac{GM_em}{R_e}-\frac{GM_em}{R_e+h}-\frac{GM_2m}{2(R_e+h)}=0$

$\frac{1}{R_e}-\frac{3}{2(R_e+h)}=0$

$h=\frac{R_e}{2}$

$h=3.19\times 10^6\ m$

(b)For greater height $E_1$ is greater than $E_2$

thus energy to lift the satellite is more than orbiting around earth

Which is not one of the forms that energy can take?

sladkih [1.3K]

Question 1: Newtonian. It refers to work of Newton. Light, electrical and chemical energies are different forms of energy.
Question 2: Nuclear power plants. Heat , Sunlight and energy in atoms are not nuclear energies.
Question 3: Batteries. the other two are examples of mechanical energy. But batteries are examples for chemical energy.
