We know that the Moon revolves around Earth during a period of 27.3 days. The average distance from the center of Earth to the c
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

This is a circular motion questions

Where the oscillation is 27.3days

Given radius (r)=3.84×10^8m

Circular motion formulas

V=wr

a=v^2/r

w=θ/t

Now, the moon makes one complete oscillation for 27.3days

Then, one complete oscillation is 2πrad

Therefore, θ=2πrad

Then 27.3 days to secs

1day=24hrs

1hrs=3600sec

Therefore, 1day=24×3600secs

Now, 27.3days= 27.3×24×3600=2358720secs

t=2358720secs

Now,

w=θ/t

w=2π/2358720 rad/secs

Now,

V=wr

V=2π/2358720 ×3.84×10^8

V=1022.9m/s

Then,

a=v^2/r

a=1022.9^2/×3.84×10^8

a=0.0027m/s^2

If an electric wire is allowed to produce a magnetic field no larger than that of the Earth (0.503 X 104 T) at a distance of 15
dem82 [27]

Answer:

37.725 A

Explanation:

B = magnitude of the magnetic field produced by the electric wire = 0.503 x 10⁻⁴ T

r = distance from the wire where the magnetic field is noted = 15 cm = 0.15 m

i = magnitude of current flowing through the wire = ?

Magnetic field by a long wire is given as

B = \frac{\mu _{o}}{4\pi }\frac{2i}{r}

Inserting the values

0.503\times 10^{-4} = (10^{-7})\frac{2i}{0.15}

i = 37.725 A

Ramas weight is 40 kg. She is carrying a load of 20 kg up to a height of 20 m. What work does she do? What work does she do?
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

The work done by Ramas is 3920 N.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the load lifted by Ramas, m = 20 kg

height through which the load is lifted, h = 20 m

The work done by Ramas is equal to gravitational potential due to the height in which the load is lifted.

W = PE = mgh

where;

g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

W = 20 x 9.8 x 20

W = 3920 N.

Therefore, the work done by Ramas is 3920 N.

If a car goes along a straight road heading east and speeds up from 45 ft/s to 60. ft/s in 5 sec, calculate the
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

Acceleration = 0.9144 m/s^2

Explanation:

Initial speed = 45 ft/s

Final speed = 60 ft/s

Time = 5 sec

Acceleration = a = (v-u) / t

                     = 60-45 / 5

                     = 0.9144 m/s^2
