It takes 29.53 days for the Moon to rotate around Earth. What would happen if the Moon does not rotate or rotates faster than it

does now?

Answer:

Explanation:

If the Moon rotated as fast as the Earth would we only see one side of the Moon? ... The Moon, on the other hand, rotates once around its own axis every 28 days, and once around the Earth in that same 28 days. The end result of this combination is that the same side of the Moon is always facing the Earth.

We have seen that starlight passing through the interstellar medium is dimmed and reddened. Look at the photo of a sunset on Ear
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

Reddening of sun's rays at sunset and sunrise is due to scattering of light . The white light consisting of seven colours coming from the sun are scattered in different directions when they fall on the air particles present in atmosphere . Red coloured light scatters least and it travels straight forward to the viewer on the earth . On the other hand other colours scatter most and therefore they go out of area of vision for the viewer on the earth . Since only red colour reaches the eye of the viewer , sun's ray appear red . This happens during sunrise and sunset . It is so because during this period , sun rays travel far greater distance through  atmosphere , so scattering is most pronounced .

A 4.40-kilogram hoop starts from rest at a height 1.70 m above the base of an inclined plane and rolls down under the influence
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

The linear velocity is  v=4.08m/s

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of energy

   The potential energy possessed by the  hoop at the top of the inclined plane is converted to the kinetic energy at the foot of the inclined plane

        The kinetic energy can be mathematically represented as

                    KE = \frac{mv^2}{2} + \frac{Iw}{2}

Where I is the moment of inertia possessed by the hoop  which is mathematically represented as

                 I = mr^2

Here R is the radius of the hoop

         w is the angular velocity which the hoop has at the bottom of the lower part of the inclined plane which is mathematically represented as

                          w = \frac{v}{r}

Where v linear speed of the hoop's center of mass just as the hoop leaves the incline and rolls onto a horizontal surface

      Now expressing the above statement mathematically

            potential \ energy = \frac{mv^2}{y} + \frac{Iw^2}{2}

               mgh = \frac{mv^2}{y} + \frac{Iw^2}{2}

=>            mgh =\frac{mv^2}{2} + \frac{(mr^2)(\frac{v}{r})^2 }{2}  

=>          mgh = \frac{mv^2}{2} + \frac{mv^2}{2}

=>           mgh = mv^2

=>              v = \sqrt{gh}

Substituting values

                v = \sqrt{9.81 * 1.7}

                  v=4.08m/s

Space debris left from old satellites and their launchers is becoming a hazard to other satellites. (a) Calculate the speed of a
Pie

Answer:

Part a)

v = 7407.1 m/s

Part b)

v_{rel} = 1.05 \times 10^4 m/s

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that orbital velocity at certain height from the surface of Earth is given as

v = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{R+h}}

here we know that

M = 5.98 \times 10^{24} kg

R = 6.37 \times 10^6 m

h = 900 km = 9.0 \times 10^5 m

now we have

v = \sqrt{\frac{(6.67 \times 10^{-11})(5.98 \times 10^{24})}{6.37 \times 10^6 + 9.0 \times 10^5}}

v = 7407.1 m/s

Part b)

When a loose rivet is moving in same orbit but at 90 degree with the previous orbit path then in that case the relative speed of the rivet with respect to the satellite is given as

v_{rel} = \sqrt{2} v

v_{rel} = 1.05 \times 10^4 m/s

A toolbox of mass 3.2kg is lowered by a rope from the roof to the ground. Find the acceleration of the toolbox when the force of
Lisa [10]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:

a) 2.7 m/s²

b) -3.6 m/s²

Explanation:

Data

mass of the toolbox = 3.2 kg

a = ?

F = 40 N and F = 20 N

g = 9.81 m/s²

Formula

Second law of motion = F = ma

                              a + g = F / m

                              a = F/m - g

a)                            a = 40/3.2 - 9.81

                              a = 2.69 ≈ 2.7 m/s²   positive up

b)                            a = 20/ 3.2 - 9.81

                              a = 6.25 - 9.81

                                  = - 3.56 ≈ - 3.6 m/s²  negative down
