The tire on this drag racer is severely twisted: The force of the road on the tire is quite large(most likely several times the
Andrew [12]

Answer: Speeding Up

Explanation:

Force is proportional to the acceleration of an object. The greater the force, the more acceleration will be produced.

When the force on the tire is equal to the weight of the car, the car is reaching a stability as a result of increase in motion.

But when the force of the load on the tire is quite large(most likely several times the weight of the car) and is directed forward, then, the car is at high speed.

If the index of refraction of a lens is 1.5, how fast does light travel in the lens?
Len [333]
The speed of light in a material is given by:
v= \frac{c}{n}
where
c=3 \cdot 10^8 m/s is the speed of light in vacuum
n is the refractive index of the material

The lens in this problem has a refractive index of n=1.50, therefore the speed of light in the lens is
v= \frac{c}{n}= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{1.50}=2 \cdot 10^8 m/s

And the correct answer is C).

A satellite is orbiting the earth. If a payload of material is added until it doubles the satellite's mass, the earth's pull of
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

When a satellite is orbiting the earth, the centripetal force is balanced by the gravitational force as :

\dfrac{GMm}{r^2}=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{r}}...........(1)

Where

M is the mass of the earth

m is the mass of the planet

From equation (1), the speed of the satellite depends only on the mass of the earth and the orbital radius.

So, If a payload of material is added until it doubles the satellite's mass, the earth's pull of gravity on this satellite will double but the satellite's orbit will not be affected. It is true.

Compare the energy consumption of two commonly used items in the household. Calculate the energy used by a 1.40 kW toaster oven,
Nikolay [14]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Power consumed by toaster oven, P=1.4\ kW

Time taken, t = 6 minutes = 0.1 hour

Energy used by toaster, W_{toaster}=P\times t

W_{toaster}=1.4\ kW\times 0.1\ h=0.14\ kWh

Similarly,

Power consumed by toaster oven, P=11\ W

Time taken, t = 9 minutes = 0.15 hour

Energy used by toaster, W_{toaster}=P\times t

W_{toaster}=11\ W\times 0.15\ h=1.65\ Wh=0.0016\ kWh

Hence, this is the required solution.
