An astronaut floating in space throws a wrench forward with the force of 10 N.
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

10N

Explanation:

1. Every Action has an equal and opposite reAction.

2. If 10N of force is acted upon an wrench, then the wrench will react with an equal amount of force, but in the opposite direction.

A fluid flows through a pipe whose cross-sectional area changes from 2.00 m2 to 0.50 m2 . If the fluid’s speed in the wide part
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

v₂ = 7/ (0.5)= 14 m/s

Explanation:

Flow rate of the fluid

Flow rate is the amount of fluid that circulates through a section of the pipeline (pipe, pipeline, river, canal, ...) per unit of time.

The formula for calculated the flow rate is:

Q= v*A Formula (1)

Where :

Q is the Flow rate (m³/s)

A is the cross sectional area of a section of the pipe (m²)

v is the speed of the fluid in that section (m/s)

Equation of continuity

The volume flow rate Q for an incompressible fluid at any point along a pipe is the same as the volume flow rate at any other point along a pipe:

Q₁= Q₂

Data

A₁ = 2m² : cross sectional area 1

v₁ = 3.5 m/s : fluid speed through A₁

A₂ = 0.5 m² : cross sectional area 2

Calculation of the fluid speed through A₂

We aply the equation of continuity:

Q₁= Q₂

We aply the equation of Formula (1):

v₁*A₁= v₂*A₂

We replace data

(3.5)*(2)= v₂*(0.5)

7 = v₂*(0.5)

v₂ = 7/ (0.5)

v₂ =  14 m/s

Newton's laws of motion are true on earth and space.
frez [133]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

It is a common misunderstanding that objects in space have no weight. If that were true, they would just float away from the Earth, the Sun and the other planets. Objects in low Earth orbit experience about 90% of the weight that they feel on the surface of the Earth.

A ball is thrown horizontally from the top of a 60 m building and lands 100 m from the base of the building. How long is the bal
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

The ball is in the air for 3.5 seconds

The initial horizontal component of velocity is 28.6 m/s

The vertical component of the final velocity is 34.3 m/s downward

The final velocity is 44.7 m/s in the direction 50.2° below the horizontal

Explanation:

A ball is thrown horizontally

That means the vertical component of the initial velocity u_{y}=0

The initial velocity is the horizontal component u_{x}

The ball is thrown from the top of a 60 m

That means the vertical displacement component y = 60 m

→ y = u_{y} t + \frac{1}{2} gt²

where g is the acceleration of gravity and t is the time

y = -60 m , g = -9.8 m/s² , u_{y}=0

Substitute these values in the rule

→ -60 = 0 + \frac{1}{2} (-9.8)t²

→ -60 = -4.9t²

Divide both sides by -4.9

→ 12.2449 = t²

Take √ for both sides

∴ t = 3.5 seconds

* <em>The ball is in the air for 3.5 seconds </em>

The initial velocity is the horizontal component u_{x}

The ball lands 100 meter from the base of the building

That means the horizontal displacement x = 100 m

→ x = u_{x} t

→ t = 3.5 s , x = 100 m

Substitute these values in the rule

→ 100 = u_{x} (3.5)

Divide both sides by 3.5

→ u_{x} = 28.57 m/s

<em>The initial horizontal component of velocity is 28.6 m/s</em>

The vertical component of the final velocity is v_{y}

→ v_{y} = u_{y} + gt

→ u_{y} = 0 , g = -9.8 m/s² , t = 3.5 s

Substitute these values in the rule

→ v_{y} = 0 + (-9.8)(3.5)

→ v_{y} = -34.3 m/s

<em>The vertical component of the final velocity is 34.3 m/s downward</em>

The final velocity v is the resultant vector of  v_{x} and v_{y}

→ Its magnetude is v=\sqrt{(v_{x})^{2}+(v_{y})^{2}}

→ Its direction tan^{-1}\frac{v_{y}}{v_{x}}

→ v_{y} = 28.6 , v_{y} = -34.3

Substitute this values in the rules above

→ v=\sqrt{(28.6)^{2}+(-34.3)^{2}}=44.66

→ Its direction tan^{-1}\frac{-34.3}{28.6}=-50.18

The negative sign means the direction is below the horizontal

<em>The final velocity is 44.7 m/s in the direction 50.2° below the horizontal</em>
