4 0

Answer:

<h2>230476.19km</h2>

Explanation:

Step one:

given

Force F= 210N

mass m= 1600kg

velocity v=5500m/s

Step two

Required is the radius r

the expression for the force is

F_c = \frac{mv^2}{r}

substitute

210=1600*5500^2/r

cross multiply we have

210r=48400000000

divide both side by 210

r=230476190.476m

r=230476.19km

________ occurs when the horizontal winds move air against mountain ranges, forcing air to rise as it passes over the mountains.
Semenov [28]
The answer would be:
Precipitation sometimes occurs when the horizontal winds move air against mountain ranges, forcing air to rise as it passes over the mountains.
This happens when the air is forced to move from low elevation to high elevation due to rising terrain. This causes the air to cool adiabatically. This increases the relative humidity and causes clouds to form, under certain conditions it can also create precipitation.

A train has an initial velocity of 44m/s and an accelaration of _4m/s calculate its velocity​
Kobotan [32]

Complete question:

A train has an initial velocity of 44m/s and an acceleration of -4m/s². calculate its velocity​ after 10s ?

Answer:

the final velocity of the train is 4 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the train, u = 44 m/s

acceleration of the train, a = -4m/s² (the negative sign shows that the train is decelerating)

time of motion, t = 10 s

let the final velocity of the train = v

The final velocity of the train is calculated using the following kinematic equation;

v = u + at

v = 44 + (-4 x 10)

v = 44 - 40

v = 4 m/s

Therefore, the final velocity of the train is 4 m/s.

A satellite is in a circular orbit around an unknown planet. The satellite has a speed of 1.75 104 m/s, and the radius of the or
Arisa [49]

Answer:

v = 1.32 10² m

Explanation:

In this case we are going to use the universal gravitation equation and Newton's second law

    F = G m M / r²

    F = m a

In this case the acceleration is centripetal

    a = v² / r

The force is given by the gravitational force

    G m M / r² = m v² / r

    G  M/r =  v²

Let's calculate the mass of the planet

    M = v² r / G

    M = (1.75 10⁴)² 5.00 10⁶ / 6.67 10⁻¹¹

    M = 2.30 10²¹ kg

With this die we clear the equation to find the orbit of the second satellite

    v = √ G M / r

    v = √ (6.67 10⁻¹¹ 2.30 10²¹ / 8.75 10⁶)

    v = 1.32 10² m

Which of the following is fact-based science rather than part of a personal belief system?
marusya05 [52]
Since there are no choices, then this question calls for open-ended answers. Facts-based science must have proven underlying laws that support inferences such as Coulomb's Law, Kinetic Theory of Matter and many more. On the other hand, examples of science that focus on personal belief is philosophy. This depends on the perspective of known philosophers. An example would be Sigmund Freud who proposed the theory of 3 personalities. Although it is more on personal beliefs, this is used as a foundation in the study of psychology.
