When a space shuttle takes off, the chemical reactions of the fuel give the shuttle the kinetic energy to leave Earth's atmosphe

re as shown in the figure below. The kinetic energy of the space shuttle is less than the potential energy of the fuel used. Which statement best explains this idea?
A.) The potential energy is used to overcome Earth’s gravity.

B.) The potential energy is also converted to light, thermal energy, and sound energy.

C.) The potential energy must be consumed to make the fuel burn.

D.) The potential energy is destroyed by the warmth of the reaction.

Rina8888 [55]

The force required is 319 N

Explanation:

The force of static friction is a force that acts an object on a surface, when this object is pushed by another force to put it in motion. The direction of the force of friction is opposite to the direction of the force of push, and its value increases as the force of push increases, up to a maximum value given by:

F_f = \mu W

where

\mu is the coefficient of friction

W is the weight of the object

Therefore, in order to put the object in motion, the force applied must be greater than this value.

For the pile of leaves in this problem, we have:

\mu = 0.55 (coefficient of friction)

W=580 N (weight of the leaves)

Substituting, we find:

F=(0.55)(580)=319 N

A proton and an electron are moving in the +x direction in a magnetic field in the +z
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Force on a moving charge is given by the following relation

F = q ( v x B )

for proton

q = e  ,   v = vi  , B = Bk

F = e ( vi x Bk )

= Bev - j

= - Bevj

The direction of force is along negative of y axis or -y - axis.

for electron

q = - e  ,   v = vi  , B = Bk

F = - e ( vi x Bk )

= - Bev - j

=  Bevj

The direction of force is along positive  of y axis or + y - axis.

uysha [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

1. Frictional force is responsible for running of car and buses on roads.

2.Gravitational force exists between astronauts in space.

3. Magnetic for is responsible to attract the iron objects using a magnet

4.Electrostatic force is responsible for fiber to stick on the skin.This force occurs due to the presence of charge.

5.When a person is pushing a trolley then object experience a normal reaction from ground.

6.Gravitational force makes the planet to move in their orbits.
