miskamm [114]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Constant speed of Jane=12.6 m/s

a.When Fred can throw the ball 30 m/s

We have to find the angle relative to the horizontal when he throw the ball in order for Sue to see the ball travel vertically upward.

Let $\theta$ be the angle .

Therefore,

$30 cos\theta=12.6$

$cos\theta=\frac{12.6}{30}=0.42$

$\theta=cos^{-1}(0.42)=65.165^{\circ}$

b.We have to find the height to which ball reach.

$v^2-v^2_0=2aS$

$S=\frac{v^2-v^2_0}{2a}=\frac{0-(30 sin65.165)^2}{2(-9.81)}$

$S=37.78 m$

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

A delivery truck leaves a warehouse and travels 3.20 km east. The truck makes a right turn and travels 2.45 km south to arrive a

boyakko [2]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Displacement of the delivery truck, $d_1=3.2\ km$ (due east)

Then the truck moves, $d_2=2.45\ km$ (due south)

Let d is the magnitude of the truck’s displacement from the warehouse. The net displacement is given by :

$d=\sqrt{d_1^2+d_2^2}$

$d=\sqrt{3.2^2+2.45^2}$

d = 4.03 km

Let $\theta$ is the direction of the truck’s displacement from the warehouse from south of east.

$\theta=tan^{-1}(\dfrac{2.45}{3.2})$

$\theta=37.43^{\circ}$

So, the magnitude and direction of the truck’s displacement from the warehouse is 4.03 km, 37.4° south of east.

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

$6.66\cdot 10^{-12}T$

Explanation:

The magnetic field produced by a current-carrying wire is given by

$B=\frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi r}$

where

$\mu_0$ is the vacuum permeability

I is the current

r is the distance from the wire

In this problem we have

$I=0.040 \mu A=4\cdot 10^{-8}A$

r = 1.2 mm = 0.0012 m

So the magnetic field strength is

$B=\frac{(4\pi \cdot 10^{-7} H/m)(4\cdot 10^{-8}A)}{2\pi (0.0012 m)}=6.66\cdot 10^{-12}T$
