Answer: Light could be thought of as a stream of tiny particles discharged by luminous objects that travel in straight paths.

Explanation:

We can define "radiation" as the transmision of energy trough waves or particles.

Particularly, light is a form of electromagnetic radiation, so the "tiny particles" of light are discharged by a radiating object, particularly we can be more explicit and call it a luminous object, in this way we are being specific about the nature of the radiation of the object.

The earth has radius R. A satellite of mass 100 kg is in orbit at an altitude of 3R above the earth's surface. What is the satel
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

W= 61.3 N

Explanation:

The only force acting on the satellite is the one due to the attraction from Earth, which obeys the Newton's Universal Law of Gravitation, as follows:

Fg =G*ms*me / (res)²

This force, also obeys the Newton's 2nd Law, so we can write the following equation:

G*ms*me*/ (res)² = ms* a = ms*g

We call to the product of the mass times the acceleration caused by gravity (g), the weight of this mass, so we can write as follows:

G*ms*me / (res)² = ms*g = W (1)

where G = 6.67*10⁻11 N*m²/kg², ms= 100 kg, me= 5.97*10²⁴ kg, and

res=  4 *re = 4*6.37*10⁶ m.

Replacing all these known values in (1), we get the value of W:

W =(( 6.67*5.97/(4*6.37)²) *( 10⁻¹¹ * 10²⁴ /10¹²) )* 100 N = 61.3 N

<span>According to Newton's first law of motion:

-- objects at rest will remain at rest unless acted upon by an outside force

-- objects in motion will remain in motion unless acted upon by an outside force

Why does Energy appear continuous in everyday life?
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

The first law of thermodynamics, also known as Law of Conservation of Energy, states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed; energy can only be transferred or changed from one form to another. For example, turning on a light would seem to produce energy; however, it is electrical energy that is converted. Nothing happens to the energy. It does not change form, since energy has no form. ... If the energy was moving, it gets stored or re-transmitted elsewhere. Using energy means controlling its movement, rather than consuming it.

how to A golf ball of mass 0.045 kg is hit off the tee at a speed of 45 m/s. The golf club was in contact with the ball for 3.5
Alexandra [31]

Answer: a) 12857.1 m/s/s b) 578.6 N

Explanation:

Impulse = change in momentum

Ft = mV2 - mV1

V = AT, 45 / .0035 = 12857.1 m/s/s

(b) .045 x 12857.1 = 578.6 N

Natalka [10]
Ideally, 576 J  because energy is conserved.
In the real world, a tiny tiny tiny tiny bit less than 576 J ,
because we live in a world with friction and air resistance.
