Answer:

a=20\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed, u = 0

Final speed, v = 40 m/s

Time, t = 2 s

We need to find the acceleration of the aircraft. We know that, acceleration is equal to the rate of change of velocity. So,

a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\a=\dfrac{40-0}{2}\\\\=20\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of the aircraft is 20\ m/s^2.

Step2247 [10]
Okay, haven't done physics in years, let's see if I remember this.

So Coulomb's Law states that F = k \frac{Q_1Q_2}{d^2} so if we double the charge on Q_1 and double the distance to (2d) we plug these into the equation to find

<span>F_{new} = k \frac{2Q_1Q_2}{(2d)^2}=k \frac{2Q_1Q_2}{4d^2} = \frac{2}{4} \cdot k \frac{Q_1Q_2}{d^2} = \frac{1}{2} \cdot F_{old}</span>

So we see the new force is exactly 1/2 of the old force so your answer should be \frac{1}{2}F if I can remember my physics correctly.

lanet R47A is a spherical planet where the gravitational acceleration on the surface is 3.45 m/s2. A satellite orbitsPlanet R47A
qaws [65]

2.6×10^6\:\text{m}

Explanation:

The acceleration due to gravity g is defined as

g = G\dfrac{M}{R^2}

and solving for R, we find that

R = \sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{g}}\:\:\:\:\:\:\:(1)

We need the mass M of the planet first and we can do that by noting that the centripetal acceleration F_c experienced by the satellite is equal to the gravitational force F_G or

F_c = F_G \Rightarrow m\dfrac{v^2}{r} = G\dfrac{mM}{r^2}\:\:\:\:\:(2)

The orbital velocity <em>v</em> is the velocity of the satellite around the planet defined as

v = \dfrac{2\pi r}{T}

where <em>r</em><em> </em>is the radius of the satellite's orbit in meters and <em>T</em> is the period or the time it takes for the satellite to circle the planet in seconds. We can then rewrite Eqn(2) as

\dfrac{4\pi^2 r}{T^2} = G\dfrac{M}{r^2}

Solving for <em>M</em>, we get

M = \dfrac{4\pi^2 r^3}{GT^2}

Putting this expression back into Eqn(1), we get

R = \sqrt{\dfrac{G}{g}\left(\dfrac{4\pi^2 r^3}{GT^2}\right)}

\:\:\:\:=\dfrac{2\pi}{T}\sqrt{\dfrac{r^3}{g}}

\:\:\:\:=\dfrac{2\pi}{(1.44×10^4\:\text{s})}\sqrt{\dfrac{(5×10^6\:\text{m})^3}{(3.45\:\text{m/s}^2)}}

\:\:\:\:= 2.6×10^6\:\text{m}
