Let point A be 0.0 miles (first city)
Let point B be 160.5 miles (first city to second city)
Let point C be 28.5 miles (first city to mail stop)

Take C – A = C [28.5 - 0.0 = 28.5] (This checks the distance between city 1 and Mail stop) 

Then Take B – C = Distance from the first city to the second city [160.5 - 28.5 = 132 Miles]


Answer: The Mail stop is 132 miles from the Second City.

An artificial satellite circles Earth in a circular orbit at a location where the acceleration due to gravity is 9.00 m/s2. Dete
Ksju [112]
 <span>g = GMe/Re^2, where Re = Radius of earth (6360km), G = 6.67x10^-11 Nm^2/kg^2, and Me = Mass of earth. On the earth's surface, g = 9.81 m/s^2, so the radius of your orbit is:


R = Re * sqrt (9.81 m/s^2 / 9.00 m/s^2) = 6640km 

here, the speed of the satellite is:

v = sqrt(R*9.00m/s^2) = 7730 m/s 

  the time it would take the satellite to complete one full rotation is:

T = 2*pi*R/v = 5397 s * 1h/3600s = 1.50 h 

Hope it help i know it's long and may be confusing but if you have any more questions regarding this topic just hmu!  :)</span>

How are longitudinal and transverse waves different?
Natalija [7]

Answer:

A longitudinal wave is a wave where the movement of the medium is in the same direction as the wave. On the other hand, a transverse wave is a wave where the movement of the medium is at a right angle to the wave direction.

A surgical microscope weighing 200 lb is hung from a ceiling by four springs with stiffness 25 lb/ft. The ceiling has a vibratio
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

If there is no damping, the amount of transmitted vibration that the microscope experienced is   = 5.676*10^{-3} \ mm

Explanation:

The motion of the ceiling is y = Y sinωt

y = 0.05 sin (2 π × 2) t

y = 0.05 sin 4 π t

K = 25 lb/ft  × 4  sorings

K = 100 lb/ft

Amplitude of the microscope  \frac{X}{Y}= [\frac{1+2 \epsilon (\omega/ W_n)^2}{(1-(\frac{\omega}{W_n})^2)^2+(2 \epsilon  \frac{\omega}{W_n})^2}]

where;

\epsilon = 0

W_n = \sqrt { \frac{k}{m}}

= \sqrt { \frac{100*32.2}{200}}

= 4.0124

replacing them into the above equation and making X the subject of the formula:

X = Y * \frac{1}{\sqrt{(1-(\frac{\omega}{W_n})^2)^2})}}

X = 0.05 * \frac{1}{\sqrt{(1-(\frac{4 \pi}{4.0124})^2)^2})}}

X = 5.676*10^{-3} \ mm

Therefore; If there is no damping, the amount of transmitted vibration that the microscope experienced is   = 5.676*10^{-3} \ mm

Explain how you think an asteroid impact could affect the tilt of Earth’s axis. Explain how this effect would change Earth’s sea
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

An asteroid impact could affect the tilt of the Earth due to the force it applies onto the planet. This would change Earth's seasons due to the fact that Earth's tilt causes seasons.
