Answer:
83%
Explanation:
On the surface, the weight is:
W = GMm / R²
where G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of the Earth, m is the mass of the shuttle, and R is the radius of the Earth.
In orbit, the weight is:
w = GMm / (R+h)²
where h is the height of the shuttle above the surface of the Earth.
The ratio is:
w/W = R² / (R+h)²
w/W = (R / (R+h))²
Given that R = 6.4×10⁶ m and h = 6.3×10⁵ m:
w/W = (6.4×10⁶ / 7.03×10⁶)²
w/W = 0.83
The shuttle in orbit retains 83% of its weight on Earth.
Answer:
what
Explanation:
Racket sports include tennis, badminton, squash or any other sport where you use rackets to hit a ball or shuttlecock to play. They can be played competitively or just for fun and are a great form of physical activity.
Because the act of braking is an example of negative acceleration.
Example: if the rate of braking was say 2 meters per second^2, and the starting velocity was 10 m/s, it would take 5 seconds to come to a stop(during those 5 seconds you would still be moving).
It depends on what that "certain amount" is.
Answer:
301.48 J/s
Explanation:
We are given;
Temperature of the sky dropping to −40∘C: T_o = -40°C = -40 + 273 = 233 K
Temperature of your skin and clothes: T = 30°C = 30 + 273 = 303 K
Body surface area of human body is around 2 m². But here only half of the body is facing the sky, Thus Area is: A = 2/2 = 1 m²
To solve this, we will use the equation for thermal heat transfer known as the Stefan bolt Mann equation.
ΔQ/Δt = εσA(T⁴ - (T_o)⁴)
Where;
ΔQ/Δt is the rate at which you body loses energy by radiation
ε is the emissivity of the human body with a value of 0.97
σ is Stefan boltzmann constant with a value of 5.67 X 10^(-8) W/m².K⁴
Thus;
ΔQ/Δt = 0.97 × 5.67 X 10^(-8) × 1(303⁴ - 233⁴)
ΔQ/Δt = 301.48 J/s
