Answer:
A. It makes astronauts weightless.
Explanation:
Gravity does not make astronauts feel weightless. Astronauts are weightless because they are orbiting at the same rate as their shuttle.
Although the force of gravity weakens as one moves away from the earth surface, it does not mean that this force is absent in orbit
- Gravitational force has a constant acceleration value near the earth surface which is commonly known to be 9.8m/s².
- It is a force of attraction tending to hold and bind bodies together so far they have mass.
- This force keeps every thing from escaping space-ward from the earth surface.
Answer: 4.27 *10^6 N/C
Explanation: In order to calculate the electric field along the axis of charged ring we have to use the following expression:
E=k*x/(a^2+x^2)^3/2 where a is the ring radius and x the distance to the point measured from the center of the ring.
Replacing the data we have:
E= (9* 10^9* 0.3* 50 * 10^-6)/(0.1^2+0.3^2)^3/2
then
E=4.27 * 10^6 N/C
I think they can use more durable materials.
Answer:
B. He should change the lengths of the vectors that point tangent to the circle so that each is the same length.
Explanation:
A uniform circular motion is a motion in a circle where the tangential speed of the object is constant.
In the motion map:
- The arrows pointing towards the centre of the circle represent the centripetal acceleration, and their length represent the magnitude of the acceleration
- The arrows pointing tangential to the circle represent the tangential speed, and their length represent the magnitude of the speed
In this motion map, we see that the length of the vectors pointing tangent to the circle is not constant: this means that the speed is not constant. In order to have a uniform circular motion, the speed must be constant, therefore the lengths of the vectors that point tangent to the circle must be the same.
5 km northeast. Left and up would make northeast
