Answer:

F = 402.18 N

Explanation:

Given that,

A particular satellite with a mass of m is put into orbit around Ganymede (the largest moon of Jupiter) at a distance 300 km from the surface. Let the mass of the satellite is 350 kg.

We need to find the gravitational force of attraction between the satellite and the moon.

The formula for the gravitational force is given by :

$F=G\dfrac{Mm}{(R+h)^2}$

M is mass of Ganymede

m is mass of satellite

R is Radius of Ganymede

h is distance = 300 km

Putting all the values,

$F=6.67\times 10^{-11}\times \dfrac{1.48\times 10^{23}\times 350}{(2631\times 10^{3}+300\times 10^3)^2}\\F=402.18\ N$

So, the required force of attraction between the satellite and the moon is 402.18 N.

How does Newton’s third law of motion relate action and reaction forces? They produce a net force of zero. They are equal and op

Paladinen [302]

<u>Answer:</u>

The correct answer option is: they are equal and opposite.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A force is a push or a pull which acts upon any object as a result of its interaction with another object where the forces are called action and reaction.

And according to the Newton's third law: for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

For example, if a bat hits a ball with a 1000-N force, the force exerted on the bat will also be equal to 1000 N but in opposite direction.

The current supplied by a battery as a function of time is I(t) = (0.88 A) e^(-t*6 hr). What is the total number of electrons tr

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

$N = 1.2 \times 10^{23}$

Explanation:

As we know that the current through the battery is given as

$i = (0.88 A) e^{-t/6}$

here from above equation we know that current will become zero when time elapsed is very large

so here we can say that charge will flow through the battery from t = 0 to t = infinite

now we have

$q = \int i dt$

$q = \int (0.88 A) e^{-t/6} dt$

$q = 0.88\times -6(3600)\times (e^{-t/6})$

$q = -1.90 \times 10^{4} (0 - 1)$

$q = 1.90 \times 10^{4} C$

As we know that

$q = Ne$

$N = \frac{q}{e}$

$N = \frac{1.90 \times 10^4}{1.6 \times 10^{-19}}$

$N = 1.2 \times 10^{23}$

The magnetic field strength is $B = 2 \mu T$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The length line above the ground is $R = 20m$

The current of the line is $I = 200A$

The voltage of the line is $V = 110kV$

Generally magnetic field strength is mathematically represented as

$B = \frac{\mu_o I}{2 \pi R}$

Where $\mu_0$ is the permeability of free space $= 4\pi * 10^{-7} N/A^2$

$B = \frac{(4\pi * 10^{-7} N/A^2) *200}{2 \pi *20}$

$= (2.0*10^{-7})[\frac{200}{20} ]$

$= 2*10^{-6}T$

$= 2 \mu T$

Earths magnetic field is approximately given as $50 \mu T$

So the percentage would be

$= \frac{Magnetic \ Field \ Intensity \ Of \ Line}{Earth's \ Magnetic \ Field} * 100$

$= \frac{2 \mu T }{50 \mu T } * 100$

$=4$ %

You set out to design a car that uses the energy stored in a flywheel consisting of a uniform 101-kg cylinder of radius r that h

Ket [755]

Ok, assuming "mj" in the question is Megajoules MJ) you need a total amount of rotational kinetic energy in the fly wheel at the beginning of the trip that equals
(2.4e6 J/km)x(300 km)=7.2e8 J
The expression for rotational kinetic energy is

E = (1/2)Iω²

where I is the moment of inertia of the fly wheel and ω is the angular velocity.
So this comes down to finding the value of I that gives the required energy. We know the mass is 101kg. The formula for a solid cylinder's moment of inertia is

I = (1/2)mR²

We want (1/2)Iω² = 7.2e8 J and we know ω is limited to 470 revs/sec. However, ω must be in radians per second so multiply it by 2π to get
ω = 2953.1 rad/s
Now let's use this to solve the energy equation, E = (1/2)Iω², for I:
I = 2(7.2e8 J)/(2953.1 rad/s)² = 165.12 kg·m²

Now find the radius R,

165.12 kg·m² = (1/2)(101)R²,
√(2·165/101) = 1.807m

R = 1.807m
