Passengers in an aircraft are subject to the Normal and Gravity Force acting on them at a low 'orbit', so tiny that it can be many times compared to the same surface of the earth when speaking in general terms.
In a high orbit space vehicle or in the same space, said force decreases considerably or simply disappears, generating the sensation of weightlessness.
Remember that the Force of Gravity is given under the principle
Where,
G = Gravitational Universal constant
M = Mass of the planet
m = mass of the object
r = Distance from center of the planet
When the radius grows considerably the gravitational force begins to decrease.
<h2>
Average speed of transit train is 60 mph</h2>
Explanation:
Average speed of passenger train = 45 mph
Time taken from station A to station B for passenger train = 10:00 - 6:00 = 4 hours
Distance between station A to station B = 45 x 4 = 180 miles.
Time taken from station A to station B for transit train = 4 - 1 = 3 hours
Distance between station A to station B = Average speed of transit train x Time taken from station A to station B for transit train
180 = Average speed of transit train x 3
Average speed of transit train = 60 mph
Average speed of transit train is 60 mph
Answer: 459.14 N
Explanation:
from the question, we have
diameter = 10 m
radius (r) = 5 m
weight (Fw) = 670 N
time (t) = 8 seconds
Circular motion has centripetal force and acceleration pointing perpendicular and inwards of the path, therefore we apply the equation below
∑ F = F c = F w − Fn ..............equation 1
Fn = Fw − Fc = mg − (mv^2 / r) ...................equation 2
substituting the value of v as (2πr / T) we now have
Fn = mg − (m(2πr / T )^2) / r
Fn= mg − (4(π^2)mr / T^2) ..........equation 3
Fw (mass of the person) = mg
therefore m = Fw / g
m = 670 / 9.8 = 68.367 kg
now substituting our values into equation 3
Fn = 670 - ( (4 x (π^2) x 68.367 x 5 ) / 8^2)
Fn = 670 - 210.86
Fn = 459.14 N
