Answer:

3.6*10^18s

Explanation:

To find the period of the satellite

We need to apply kephler's third law

Which is

MP² = (4π²/G) d³

d=semi-major axis which is the distance from center of moon = 98km+1740km = 1838km

where M= mass of the moon = 7.3x10^22kg

P=period

G=newtonian gravatational constant= 6.67x10^-11

To find the Period solve for P

P = √[(4π²/G M)xd³]

P=√(4 π²/6.67x10^-22*7.3x10^22kg) x (1.838x10^6m)³]

= 3.6*10^18s

Contrary to popular belief, a ski jumper does not achieve a large amount of "air" when doing a jump (less than 6 feet). This is

Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

The vertical distance that the ski jumper fell is 417.45 m.

Explanation:

Given;

initial horizontal velocity of the jumper, $V_x$ = 26 m/s

horizontal distance of the jumper, dx = 240 m

The time of the motion is given by;

dx = Vₓt

t = dx / Vₓ

t = 240 / 26

t = 9.23 s

The vertical distance traveled by the diver is given by;

$d_y = V_yt + \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

initial vertical velocity, $V_y$ , = 0

$d_y = \frac{1}{2}gt^2\\\\d_y = \frac{1}{2}(9.8)(9.23)^2\\\\d_y = 417.45 \ m$

Therefore, the vertical distance that the ski jumper fell is 417.45 m.

An ideal spring hangs from the ceiling. A 2.15 kg mass is hung from the spring, stretching the spring a distance d = 0.0895 m fr

Igoryamba

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the mass at the instant it passes back through the equilibrium position is 0.06500 J.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 2.15 kg

Distance = 0.0895 m

Amplitude = 0.0235 m

We need to calculate the spring constant

Using newton's second law

$F= mg$

Where, f = restoring force

$kx=mg$

$k=\dfrac{mg}{x}$

Put the value into the formula

$k=\dfrac{2.15\times9.8}{0.0895}$

$k=235.41\ N/m$

We need to calculate the kinetic energy of the mass

Using formula of kinetic energy

$K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

Here, $v = A\omega$

$K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}m\times(A\omega)^2$

Here, $\omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}^2$

$K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}m\times A^2\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}^2$

$K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}kA^2$

Put the value into the formula

$K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times235.41\times(0.0235)^2$

$K.E=0.06500\ J$

Hence, The kinetic energy of the mass at the instant it passes back through the equilibrium position is 0.06500 J.

A point charge is placed 100 m from a 6 uC charge generating an electric field. What is the

kvv77 [185]

The strength of the electric field is 5 N/C

Explanation:

The magnitude of the electric field produced by a single-point charge is given by:

$E=\frac{kQ}{r^2}$

where

$k=8.99\cdot 10^9 Nm^{-2}C^{-2}$ is the Coulomb's constant

Q is the magnitude of the charge

r is the distance from the charge

In this problem, we have:

$Q=6 \mu C = 6\cdot 10^{-6}C$ is the charge producing the field

r = 100 m is the distance from the charge at which we want to calculate the field

Substituting into the equation, we find the s trength of the electric field:

$E=\frac{(8.99\cdot 10^9)(6\cdot 10^{-6})}{(100)^2}=5.4 N/C \sim 5 N/C$
