A space ship has four thrusters positioned on the top and bottom, and left and right as shown below. The thrusters can be operat

ed independently or together to help the ship navigate in all directions.
Initially, the Space Probe is floating towards the East, as shown below, with a velocity, v. The pilot then turns on thruster #2.

Select one:

a.
Space ship will have a velocity to the West and will be speeding up.

b.
Space ship will have a velocity to the East and will be speeding up.

c.
Space ship will have a velocity to the East and will be slowing down.

d.
Space ship will have a velocity to the West and will be slowing down.

e.
Ship experiences no change in motion.

Answer:

The correct answer is - c.  Spaceship will have a velocity to the East and will be slowing down.

Explanation:

In this case, if turned on thruster #2 then it will exert force on the west side as thruster 2 is on the east side and it can be understood by Newton's third law that says each action has the same but opposite reaction.

As the spaceship engine applies force on the east side then according to the law the exhauster gas applies on towards west direction. It will try to decrease the velocity of the spaceship however, the direction of floating still be east side initally.

The following chart provides the pH of some common foods. How many would be considered basic?
Yuri [45]

The ones with pH greater than 7

Explanation:

A pH scale is a scale for expressing the level of acidity or alkalinity of aqueous solutions.

This scale is called a pH or pOH scale. The pH is the common one.

pH of a solution is the negative logarithm to base 10 o the hydrogen ion concentration of the solution.

  • The scale ranges from 1 through 14.
  • An acidic solution has a pH value less than 7. Neutral solutions have pH of 7 and basic solutions have pH greater than 7.

If we decrease the amount of force, and kelp all other factors the same, what will happen to the amount of work?
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

Distance will decrease and work will decrease:

F = m a      Newton's Second Law

a = F / m       decreasing force will decrease acceleration

S = 1/2 a t^2 = 1/2 (F / m) t^2     distance traveled will decrease as force        decreases

W = F * S       work will decrease as both force and distance decrease

13. A transformer has a primary coil with 600 turns and a secondary coil with 300 turns. If the output voltage is 320 volts, wha
vivado [14]
His is a step down transformer since n(primary) is greater than n(seconcary). You relate the input voltage with the ouput voltage with the following equation: 

<span>Vout = n2/n1*Vin (n2/n1 is essentially your 'transfer function' that dictates what a specified input would produce) </span>

<span>Solving the equation: </span>

<span>Vin = Vout*n1/n2 = (320V)*(600/300) = 640 V </span>

<span>This is checked by seeing if Vin is greater than Vout, which it is for a step down transformer.</span>
