. A mass m is traveling at an initial speed of 25.0 m/s. It is brought to rest in a distance of 62.5 m by a net force of 15.0 N.

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

m = 3 kg

The mass m is 3 kg

Explanation:

From the equations of motion;

s = 0.5(u+v)t

Making t thr subject of formula;

t = 2s/(u+v)

t = time taken

s = distance travelled during deceleration = 62.5 m

u = initial speed = 25 m/s

v = final velocity = 0

Substituting the given values;

t = (2×62.5)/(25+0)

t = 5

Since, t = 5 the acceleration during this period is;

acceleration a = ∆v/t = (v-u)/t

a = (25)/5

a = 5 m/s^2

Force F = mass × acceleration

F = ma

Making m the subject of formula;

m = F/a

net force F = 15.0N

Substituting the values

m = 15/5

m = 3 kg

The mass m is 3 kg

A satellite is in orbit 36000km above the surface of the earth. Its angular velocity is 7.27*10^-5 rad/s. What is the velocity o

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

v = 3.08 km/s

Explanation:

Given that,

The angular velocity of the satellite = $\omega=7.27\times 10^{-5} rad/s$

A satellite is in orbit 36000km above the surface of the earth.

The radius of the earth is 6400 km

Let v is the velocity of the satellite. It can be calculated as :

$v=r\omega\\\\v=(36000\times 10^3+6400\times 10^3)\times 7.27\times 10^{-5}\\\\v=3082.48\ m/s\\\\v=3.08\ km/s$

So, the velocity of the satellite is 3.08 km/s.

A sample of a gas in a rigid container has an initial pressure of 5 atm at a temperature of 254.5 k. The temperature is decrease

skelet666 [1.2K]

The gas is in a rigid container: this means that its volume remains constant. Therefore, we can use Gay-Lussac law, which states that for a gas at constant volume, the pressure is directly proportional to the temperature. The law can be written as follows:

$\frac{P_1}{T_1} = \frac{P_2}{T_2}$

Where P1=5 atm is the initial pressure, T1=254.5 K is the initial temperature, P2 is the new pressure and T2=101.8 K is the new temperature. Re-arranging the equation and using the data of the problem, we can find P2:

$P_2 = T_2 \frac{P_1}{T_1}=(101.8 K) \frac{5 atm}{254.5 K}=2 atm$

So, the new pressure is 2 atm.

At which type of boundary between two tectonic plates is an earthquake or a tsunami most likely to form?

Fofino [41]

Answer:

B. convergent boundary

Explanation:

Convergent boundaries, where ocean plates are subducted at trenches, produce the most tsunamis because they produce the largest earthquakes
