Answer:

Forces affect how objects move. They may cause motion; they may also slow, stop, or change the direction of motion of an object that is already moving. Since force cause changes in the speed or direction of an object, we can say that forces cause changes in velocity. Remember that acceleration is a change in velocity.

A satellite is in orbit 36000km above the surface of the earth. Its angular velocity is 7.27*10^-5 rad/s. What is the velocity o

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

v = 3.08 km/s

Explanation:

Given that,

The angular velocity of the satellite = $\omega=7.27\times 10^{-5} rad/s$

A satellite is in orbit 36000km above the surface of the earth.

The radius of the earth is 6400 km

Let v is the velocity of the satellite. It can be calculated as :

$v=r\omega\\\\v=(36000\times 10^3+6400\times 10^3)\times 7.27\times 10^{-5}\\\\v=3082.48\ m/s\\\\v=3.08\ km/s$

So, the velocity of the satellite is 3.08 km/s.

A beam of white light enters a prism of crown glass (n = 1.5) from air (n = 1.00). Once inside, the colors in the light disperse

eduard

Answer:

= 2.33

Explanation:

.According to snell's law:

n1sin i = n2sin r ,

where n1 is refractive index of the medium in which incident ray is travelling, n2 is the refractive index of the medium in which refracted ray is travelling,

i is angle of incidence,

r is angle of refraction.

Given that,

n1 = 1,

i = 51 degrees,

r = 19.5 degrees. ,

n2= ?

So,

1*sin 51 = n2 sin 19.5

=> n2 = sin51 / sin19.5

= 2.33

A bar magnet is dropped toward a conducting ring lying on the floor. As the magnet falls toward the ring, does it move as a free

Maslowich

Consider that the bar magnet has a magnetic field that is acting around it, which will imply that there is a change in the magnetic flux through the loop whenever it moves towards the conducting loop. This could be described as an induction of the electromotive Force in the circuit from Faraday's law.

In turn by Lenz's law, said electromotive force opposes the change in the magnetic flux of the circuit. Therefore, there is a force that opposes the movement of the bar magnet through the conductor loop. Therefore, the bar magnet does not suffer free fall motion.

The bar magnet does not move as a freely falling object.

In the pair of supply and demand equations below, where x represents the quantity demanded in units of a thousand and p the unit

arlik [135]

Answer:

Equilibrium quantity = 5

Equilibrium price = 40

Explanation:

given:

p = -x²-3x+80

p = 7x+5

For the equilibrium quantity the price from both the functions will be equal

thus, we have

-x² - 3x + 80 = 7x+5

⇒ x² +3x + 7x + 5 - 80 = 0

⇒x² + 10x - 75 = 0

now solving for x

x²- 5x + 15x -75 = 0

x(x-5) + 15(x-5) = 0

therefore, the two roots of the equation are

x = 5 and x = -15

since the quantity cannot be in negative

therefore, the equilibrium quantity will be = 5

now the equilibrium price can be found out by substituting the equilibrium quantity in any of the equation

thus,

p = -(5)² -3(5) + 80 = 40

p = 7(5) + 5 = 40

A 1.0kg ball has a momentum of 12kg m/s what is the balls speed

Anastasy [175]

The momentum of an object is given by:
$p=mv$
where
p is the momentum
m is the mass
v is the velocity of the object

The ball in our problem has a mass of m=1.0 kg and a momentum of $p=12 kg m/s$ , therefore we can use the previous formula to find its velocity:
$v= \frac{p}{m}= \frac{12 kg m/s}{1.0 kg}=12 m/s$
