Describe the main differences between the composition of Earth and that of the Sun.

Physics
1 answer:
kakasveta [241]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: The earth is comprised of silicate materials as well as metals. The amount of gas is less here because of its location near to the sun. Due to its relative high surface temperature, the gases such as hydrogen and helium gets evaporated and disappears.

Whereas the sun is entirely comprised of hydrogen and helium gas, of which hydrogen is the dominant one. It has an extremely high temperature of about 5500°C.

What speed should a satellite of mass 4,900 kg moving around
Rudiy27

Based on the calculations, the speed required for this satellite to stay in orbit is equal to 1.8 × 10³ m/s.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

  • Gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m/kg²
  • Mass of Moon = 7.36 × 10²² kg
  • Distance, r = 4.2 × 10⁶ m.

<h3>How to determine the speed of this satellite?</h3>

In order to determine the speed of this satellite to stay in orbit, the centripetal force acting on it must be sufficient to change its direction.

This ultimately implies that, the centripetal force must be equal to the gravitational force as shown below:

Fc = Fg

mv²/r = GmM/r²

<u>Where:</u>

  • m is the mass of the satellite.
  • M is mass of the Moon.

Making v the subject of formula, we have;

v = √(GM/r)

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

v = √(6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ × 7.36 × 10²²/4.2 × 10⁶)

v = √(1,168,838.095)

v = 1,081.13 m/s.

Speed, v = 1.8 × 10³ m/s.

Is it possible to have a net torque when all of the forces sum to zero? Explain.
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

Yes it is possible

Explanation:

When two equal magnitude forces are acting on the rod in opposite direction

Then the net force on the system is always zero in that case

so we will have

F - F = 0

now for the system net torque due to these forces is given by

\tau = F(r_1) + F(r_2)

here we know that

r_1, r_2 = distance of the forces from reference about which torque is measured

so here we can say that net force is zero on the system while torque is not zero

in all such case object will rotate about a fixed position with change angular speed

a 5.00 kg plane is speeding up on the ground with an applied force of 706 N. If the net force is 450 N, what would be the force
loris [4]

Answer:

The force due to air resistance is 256 N.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the plane, m = 5 kg

applied force on the plane, Fa = 706 N

the net force on the plane, ∑F= 450 N

Let the force due to air resistance = Fr

The net force on the plane is given as;

Net force = applied force - force due to air resistance

∑F = Fa - Fr

Fr = Fa - ∑F

Fr = 706 - 450

Fr = 256 N.

Therefore, the force due to air resistance is 256 N.
