Answer:

Without any external forces a moving object will continue to move in a straight line. The gravitational force between the two objects will provide the centripetal force to keep the objects moving around one another.

1. satellite in orbit around the earth             (motion of earth is negligible)

2. moon in orbit around the earth     (center of motion several thousand miles        

                                                             from center of earth)

3. earth in orbit around sun    (center of rotation close to center of sun)

4. binary stars         (if masses of stars are equal center of rotation is in middle)

A 1000.0 kg truck accelerates from 20.0 m/s to 25.0 m/s over a distance of 300.0 m. What is the average net force on the truck?
choli [55]

Answer:

The average net force on the truck is 375 Newtons.

Explanation:

Using Newton's 3rd equation of motion, we have :

v^{2} - u^{2} = 2×a×s

where, v = final velocity = 25 m/s

u = initial velocity = 20 m/s

a = acceleration

s = distance traveled = 300 m

Using these values in the above equation, we get acceleration = 0.375 m/s^{2}

Using Newton's second law, we have:

F=m×a

where m = mass = 1000 kg

a= acceleration = 0.375 m/s^{2}

Putting values we have F=375 N

julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

(a) 135 kV

(b) The charge chould be moved to infinity

Explanation:

(a)

The potential at a distance of <em>r</em> from a point charge, <em>Q</em>, is given by

V = -\dfrac{kQ}{r}

where k = 9\times 10^9 \text{ F/m}

Difference in potential between the points is

kQ\left[-\dfrac{1}{0.2\text{ m}} -\left( -\dfrac{1}{0.1\text{ m}}\right)\right] = \dfrac{kQ}{0.2\text{ m}} = \dfrac{9\times10^9\text{ F/m}\times3\times10^{-6}\text{ C}}{0.2\text{ m}}

PD = 135\times 10^3\text{ V} = 135\text{ kV}

(b)

If this potential difference is increased by a factor of 2, then the new pd = 135 kV × 2 = 270 kV. Let the distance of the new location be <em>x</em>.

270\times10^3 = kQ\left[-\dfrac{1}{x}-\left(-\dfrac{1}{0.1\text{ m}}\right)\right]

10 - \dfrac{1}{x} = \dfrac{270000}{9\times10^9\times3\times10^{-6}} = 10

\dfrac{1}{x} = 0

x = \infty

The charge chould be moved to infinity

A 1 530-kg automobile has a wheel base (the distance between the axles) of 2.70 m. The automobile's center of mass is on the cen
NeTakaya

Answer:

Force on front axle = 6392.85 N

Force on rear axle = 8616.45 N

Explanation:

As we know that the weight of the car is balanced by the normal force on the front wheel and rear wheels

Now we know that

F_1 + F_2 = W

F_1 + F_2 = (1530\times 9.81)

F_1 + F_2 = 15009.3 N

now we know that distance between the axis is 2.70 m and centre of mass is 1.15 m behind front axle

so we can write torque balance about its center of mass

F_1(1.15) = F_2(2.70 - 1.15)

F_1 = 1.35 F_2

now from above equation

F_2 + 1.35F_2 = 15009.3

now we have

F_2 = 6392.85 N

now the other force is given as

F_1 = 8616.45 N
