Newton's First and Second Laws of Motion:Question 3Kepler-10b, the first confirmed terrestrial extrasolar planet, is about 564 l

ight-years away from Earth. Kepler-10b is a superearth, meaning it is a little larger and more massive than Earth. It has a surface gravity that is 1.53 times that of Earth. How much thrust would be required to accelerate a 5,000-kg spacecraft 2.13 m/s2 from the surface of Kepler-10b

Answer:

F = 85696.5 N = 85.69 KN

Explanation:

In this scenario, we apply Newton's Second Law:

Unbalanced\ Force = ma\\Upthrust - Weight\ of\ Space\ Craft = ma\\F - W = ma\\F - mg = ma\\F = m(g + a)\\

where,

F = Upthrust = ?

m = mass of space craft = 5000 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity on surface of Kepler-10b = (1.53)(9.81 m/s²)

g = 15.0093 m/s²

a = acceleration required = 2.13 m/s²

Therefore,

F = (5000\ kg)(15.0093\ m/s^{2} + 2.13\ m/s^{2})\\

<u>F = 85696.5 N = 85.69 KN</u>

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

Meandering

Explanation:

A meander is known as the continuous flow of regular curves which are sinuous, loops, turns, bends or winding in the channel of river

Production of a meander by a river or stream  as it erodes the sediments comprising on an exterior, a concave bank and deposits it and other sediment on the downstream on an interior, convex bank which is like a point bar.

Rivers or streams  with a one channel and sinuosities of 1.6 or more are defined as meandering rivers or streams.

Melissa and Rory live near a bike trail, 21 km apart. They plan to meet at a park mid-way between their homes. They start from t
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

27km.

Explanation:

Jessie will run for a duration of time, which is the time it takes for Melissa and Rory to meet each other.

Together combined, Melissa and Rory runs at 14km/h. The bike trail is 21km, so it will take 1.5 hours.

Jessie runs at 18km/h, so Jessie will run 18 * 1.5 = 27km.
