Answer:

Force, F = 16814.95 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of space station, m = 2010 kg

Altitude, d=5.35\times 10^5\ m

Mass of earth, m=5.98\times 10^{24} kg

Mean radius of earth, r=6.37\times 10^6\ m

Magnitude of force is given by :

F=G\dfrac{Mm}{R^2}

R = r + d

R=6.37\times 10^6\ m+5.35\times 10^5\ m=6905000\ m

F=6.67\times 10^{-11}\times \dfrac{2010\ kg\times 5.98\times 10^{24} kg}{(6905000\ m)^2}

F = 16814.95 N

So, the force between the space station and the Earth is 16814.95 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

A system consists of a disk rotating on a frictionless axle and a piece of clay moving toward it, as shown in the figure above.
cestrela7 [59]

Explanation:

Forgive me If I am wrong, it's been a while since I've studied Torque.

The formula for the angular momentum is

momentum= I*w.

We can also write I*W as 1/2MR^2 * W so the extra mass coming from the block of clay would most likely cause the angular momentum to increase from the amount it was before.

Choose the sequence of energy forms that best fits each item.
levacccp [35]

Answer:

1. chemical energy --> electrical energy --> light energy

2. Electrical Energy --> Mechanical Energy

3. Electrical Energy --> Heat Energy

4. Chemical Energy --> Thermal Energy  --> Mechanical Energy

5. Nuclear Energy --> Light energy and thermal energy

6. Mechanical Energy --> Electric Energy

7. Chemical Energy --> Electrical Energy --> Sound Energy

8. Mechanical Energy --> Sound Energy

Explanation:

1.<u>FLASHLIGHT</u>:

chemical energy --> electrical energy --> light energy

The chemical energy from the cell batteries is converted to electrical energy, which is used to produce the light energy in form of flashlight.

2.<u>ELECTRIC SAW</u>:

Electrical Energy --> Mechanical Energy

The electrical energy from the socket is converted to the mechanical energy used to run the saw blade.

3.<u>TOASTER</u>:

Electrical Energy --> Heat Energy

The electrical energy from the socket is converted to the heat energy (thermal energy) used in browning the bread.

4.<u>GAS POWERED SCOOTER</u>:

Chemical Energy --> Thermal Energy  --> Mechanical Energy

The chemical energy from fuel, such as petrol is converted to heat (thermal energy) in the engine by the process of combustion. This heat is then used to do work by conversion into mechanical energy, through piston movement, which in turn moves the shaft and the scooter.

5.<u>THE SUN</u>:

Nuclear Energy --> Light energy and thermal energy

The nuclear reactions on Sun provide nuclear energy which is converted into light and thermal energy that reaches us on earth.

6.<u>WIND TURBINE</u>:

Mechanical Energy --> Electric Energy

The mechanical energy is provided by wind when it rotates the blade of turbine. This is then converted to electrical energy b the turbine.

7.<u>IPOD</u>:

Chemical Energy --> Electrical Energy --> Sound Energy

The chemical energy i supplied by the battery of ipod, which is converted to electrical energy and that electrical energy is used to produce sound by ipod.

8.<u>SPEAKER VIBRATES</u>

Mechanical Energy --> Sound Energy

The mechanical energy due to vibration produces sound energy.
