Answer:

0.109 m (10.9 cm)

Explanation:

The weight of the airplane hanging from the rubber band is given by the product between its mass (0.5 kg) and the acceleration due to gravity (g=9.8 m/s^2):

W=mg=(0.5 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)=4.9 N

This is the force that stretches the rubber band, according to Hook's law:

F=kx

where

k = 45 N/m is the spring constant

x is the stretching of the spring with respect to its equilibrium position

Substituting F = 4.9 N and re-arranging the formula, we get:

x=\frac{F}{x}=\frac{4.9 N}{45 N/m}=0.109 m=10.9 cm

At an instant when a particle of mass 80 g has a velocity of 25 m/s in the positive y direction, a 75-g particle has a velocity
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

16 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

y momentum = 0.080 *25 = 2

x momentum = 0.075*20 = 1.5

total momentum = √(4 + 2.25)

Total momentum = √6.25

Total momentum = 2.5

total mass = mass of x and y momentum = 0.075 + 0.080 = 0.155

speed of mass center = total momentum / total mass = 2.5/0.155 = 16.

And thus, the speed of the center of mass of this two-particle system at this instant is 16 m/s

The distance between Pluto and the Sun is 39.1 times more than the distance between the Sun and Earth. Calculate the time taken
german

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Distance between Pluto and sun is 39.1 times more than the distance between earth and sun

According to Kepler's Law

T^2=kR^3

where k=constant

T=time period

R=Radius of orbit

Suppose R_1 is the radius of orbit of earth and sun

so Distance between Pluto and sun is R_2=39.1\cdot R_1

T_1 and T_2 is the time period corresponding to R_1 and R_2[/tex]

(T_1)^2=k(R_1)^3---1

(T_2)^2=k(R_2)^3---2

divide 1 and 2

(\frac{365}{T_2})^2=(\frac{R_1}{39.1})^3

T_2^2=365^2\times 39.1^3

T_2=89239.67\ Earth\ days
