Answer:

Orbit/circumference = 471.24 million .

c = 2πr

150/2 = radius

radius = 75.

π = 3.14

2 x π x 75 = 471.24

A person is initially driving a car east down a straight road. the magnitude of the instantaneous acceleration is decreasing wit

Alexxandr [17]

By definition, acceleration is the change in velocity per change of time. As time passes by, the time increases in value. So, when the acceleration is decreasing while the time is increasing, then that means that the change of velocity is also decreasing with time. So, optimally, the initial velocity and the velocity at any time are very relatively close to each other,

A wooden piece is made in different shapes take length (l) = radius (r) = 2m Calculate its volume as a:

In-s [12.5K]

This question deals with the volume of different shapes.

a) volume of the sphere is "33.51 m³".

b) volume of the cylinder is "25.13 m³".

a)

The volume of a sphere is given by the following formula:

$Volume = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3\\\\Volume = \frac{4}{3}\pi (2\ m)^3$

<u>Volume = 33.51 m³</u>

<u />

b)

The volume of a cylinder is given by the following formula:

$Volume = \pi r^2l\\\\Volume =\pi (2\ m)^2(2\ m)$

<u>Volume = 25.13 m³</u>

<u />

Suppose a tidal basin is 6 m above the ocean at low tide and that the area of the basin is 5×107 m2. Estimate the gravitational

Neko [114]

Answer:

Potential energy will be $176.58\times 10^{11}j$

Explanation:

We have given the height of the basin is h = 6 m

Area of the basin $A=5\times 10^7m^2$

Volume $V=area \times height=5\times 10^7\times 6=30\times 10^7m^3$

Density $\rho =1000kg/m^3$

We know that mass is given by $m=\rho V=1000\times 30\times 10^7=3\times 10^{11}kg$

We know that potential energy is given by $E=mgh=3\times 10^{11}\times 9.81\times 6=176.58\times 10^{11}j$
