The orbit of a space shuttle is surprisingly like an apple falling from a tree to earth. The space shuttle is simply moving so fast that the path of its fall is an orbit around our planet. Which of Newton’s laws helps explain the orbit of a space shuttle around earth and the orbit of earth around the sun

A dog runs down his driveway with an initial speed of 5 m/s for 8 s, and then uniformly increases his speed to 10 m/s in 5 s.
MakcuM [25]
Acceleration is given by change in velocity divided by change in time, so his acceleration should just be (10-5)/5 which is [tex] \frac{5}{2} \frac{m}{s^{2}} [tex]

The driveway is 40 meters plus 225/4. You can do the math.

A 500 N force accelerates an object at 20 m s-2. What is its mass?
avanturin [10]

<u>Answer</u>: The mass of the object is 25kg.

The given question deals with Newton's second law of motion and its applications.

<u>Explanation:</u> Given force, F=500N

                                 acceleration, a=20 m/s^{2}

  From Newton's 2nd law of motion , we have

                             F=ma where m=mass of the object

                         ⇒500=m×20

                         ⇒m=500/20=25

                 ∴ Mass of the object is 25 kg .

Relate a real life phenomenon with each branch of physics
anastassius [24]

Answer:

Branches of physics with real life examples

In measuring and understanding nuclear fission (a real life phenomenon), all branches of theoretical and experimental physics have to be employed. Physics branches needed in it are, radiation detection and measurement, nuclear physics, statistical physics, thermodynamics, and almost all others.

An electric motor is connected to a battery. The current flows through brushes to a commutator ring, which is attached to a elec
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

Commutator is a ring which reverse the direction of current in AC circuit so that the coil connected to it will continuous to move in the same direction.

Explanation:

In motors there exist a coil which is rotated due to torque of magnetic field when current flow through it. Since AC current is used to run the motor so we know that AC current changes its direction after half cycle.

So here commutator plays an important role to reverse the direction of current after every half cycle so that the current goes in same direction always into the coil.

This will produce a constant direction torque on the coil so that it will rotate in same sense always.

So commutator role is to provide same direction current to the coil by reversing its direction after every half cycle
