6 0

Answer:

k = 1,250 N/m

Explanation:

Use the formula F=kx, with F=5N and x=0.04m

Then the spring constant (k) is 5/0.04

Do Small objects exert no gravitational force ? True or false
Zanzabum

Answer:

False -    

F = G M1 M2 / R^2

So F depends on M1 and M2 and as long either is not zero there will be a gravitational force between them.

Two identical satellites orbit the earth in stable orbits. One satellite orbits with a speed v at a distance r from the center o
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

c)At a distance greater than r

Explanation:

For a satellite in orbit around the Earth, the gravitational force provides the centripetal force that keeps the satellite in motion:

G\frac{Mm}{r^2}=m\frac{v^2}{r}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the Earth's mass

m is the satellite's mass

r is the distance between the satellite and the Earth's centre

v is the speed of the satellite

Re-arranging the equation, we write

r = \frac{GM}{v^2}

so we see from the equation that when the speed is higher, the distance from the Earth's centre is smaller, and when the speed is lower, the distance from the Earth's centre is larger.

Here, the second satellite orbit the Earth at a speed less than v: this means that its orbit will have a larger radius than the first satellite, so the correct answer is

c)At a distance greater than r

Which has the most momentum?
boyakko [2]

Answer:

Both objects have the same magnitude of momentum.

Explanation:

If an object of mass m is moving at a velocity of v, the momentum of that object would be m\, v.

The 100\; {\rm g} (0.1\; {\rm kg}) object is moving at a speed of 1\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}. The magnitude of the momentum of this object would be 0.1\; {\rm kg} \times 1\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}} = 0.1\; {\rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-1}}.

Similarly, the momentum of the 1\; {\rm g} (10^{-3}\; {\rm kg}) object moving at a speed of 100\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}} would be 10^{-3}\; {\rm kg} \times 100\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}} = 0.1\; {\rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-1}}.

Hence, the magnitude of momentum is the same for the two objects.

Why is a shadow formed
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

Shadows are made by blocking light. Light rays travel from a source in straight lines. If an opaque (solid) object gets in the way, it stops light rays from traveling through it. The size and shape of a shadow depend on the position and size of the light source compared to the object.
