Answer:

2. decreasing the distance of the space shuttle from Earth

Explanation:

To increase the gravitational force on a space shuttle, it is a good thing to decrease the distance of the space shuttle from the earth.

This is based on the Newton's law of universal gravitation which states that "the gravitational force between two bodies is a directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them".

 Mathematically;

           F  = \frac{G m_{1} m_{2} }{r^{2} }  

G is the universal gravitation constant, it cannot be changed

m is the mass of the body

r is the distance

  Since the distance is inversely proportional, is we reduce it, the value of the gravitational force will increase.

A friend asks you how much pressure is in your car tires. You know that the tire manufacturer recommends 30 psi, but it's been a
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

21 psi

Explanation:

The weight of the car is:

W = mg

W = 1000 kg * 9.8 m/s²

W = 9800 N

Divided by 4 tires, each tire supports:

F = W/4

F = 9800 N / 4

F = 2450 N

Pressure is force divided by area, so:

P = F / A

P = (2450 N) / (0.13 m × 0.13 m)

P ≈ 145,000 Pa

101,325 Pa is the same as 14.7 psi, so:

P ≈ 145,000 Pa × (14.7 psi / 101,325 Pa)

P ≈ 21 psi

Two polarizing sheets have their transmission axes crossed so that no light is transmitted. A third sheet is inserted so that it
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

a)    I= I₀ (cos²θ - cos⁴θ)    b) 75.5º

Explanation:

a) For this exercise we must use Malus's law

         I = I₀ cos² θ

where tea is the angle between the two polarizers.

We apply this expression to our case

* Polarizer 1 suppose that it is vertical and polarizer 2 (intermediate) is at an angle θ with respect to the vertical

         I₁ = I₀ cos² θ

* We analyze for the polarity 2 and the last polarizer 3 which indicate that it must be at 90º from the first one, therefore it must be horizontal.

The angle of polarizers 2 and 3 is θ' measured from the horizontal, if we measure with respect to the vertical

              θ₂ = 90- θ’ = θ

fiate that in the exercise we must take a reference system and measure everything with respect to this system.

          I = I₁ cos² θ'

       

we substitute

         I = (I₀ cos² tea) cos² (θ - 90)

        cos (θ -90) = cos θ cos 90 + sin θ sin 90 = sin θ

         I = Io cos² θ sin² θ

        1= cos²θ+ sin²θ

       sin²θ = 1 - cos²θ

        I= I₀ (cos²θ - cos⁴θ)

b) to find when the intensity is maximum,

we can use that we have an extreme point when the drift is zero

          \frac{dI}{d \theta} = 0

          \frac{dI}{d \theta}= Io (2 cos θ - 4 cos³θ) = 0

whereby

            cos θ - 2 cos³ θ = 0

            cos θ ( 1 - 2 cos² θ) = 0  

The zeros of this function are in

           θ = 90º

           1-2cos²θ =0       cos θ = 0.25  θ =  75.5º

Let's analyze this two results for the angle of 90º the intnesidd is zero with respect to the first polarizer, so it is not an acceptable solution.

Consequently, the angle that allows the maximum intensity to pass is 75.5º

Serga [27]

Answer:

Speed of river is 0.45 m/s

Speed of boat is 2.65 m/s

Explanation:

v_r = Speed of river

v_c = Speed of canoe

v_r+v_c=2.8\ m/s

v_r-v_c=-1.9\ m/s

Adding the equations we get

2v_r=0.9\\\Rightarrow v_r=\frac{0.9}{2}\\\Rightarrow v_r=0.45\ m/s

0.42+v_c=2.8\ m/s\\\Rightarrow v_c=2.8-0.45\\\Rightarrow v_c=2.65\ m/s

Speed of river is 0.45 m/s

Speed of boat is 2.65 m/s

What is the magnitude of g at a height above Earth's surface where free-fall acceleration equals 6.5m/s^2?
prohojiy [21]

You've given the answer, right there in your question.

The "magnitude of gravity" is described in terms of the acceleration
due to it, and you just told us what that is.

We can also notice that the figure you gave is about 0.66 of the
acceleration due to gravity on the Earth's surface. That tells us that
the distance from the Earth's center at that height is about 

                     (1 / √0.66) = 1.23 times

the Earth's radius, so the height is about  910 miles above the surface.
