FRICTIONAL FORCE

Friction is the force that acts to resist sliding between two surfaces that are touching. It can slow down or stop the motion of an object. ○ The slowing force of friction always acts in the direction opposite to the force causing the motion.

The space shuttle travels at a speed of about 7.6times10^3 m/s. The blink of an astronaut's eye lasts about 110 ms. How many foo

sveta [45]

Answer:

It covers distance of 9.15 football fields in the said time.

Explanation:

We know that

$Distance=Speed\times Time$

Thus distance covered in blinking of eye =

$Distance=7.6\times 10^{3}m/s\times 110\times 10^{-3}s\\\\Distance=836 meters$

Thus no of football fields= $\frac{936}{91.4}=9.15Fields$

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

The answer is " $1.01 \times 10^{-13}$ "

Explanation:

Using the law of conservation for energy. Equating the kinetic energy to the potential energy.

$KE=U=\frac{kqq'}{r}\\\\$

Calculating the closest distance:

$\to r=\frac{kqq'}{KE}\\\\$

$=\frac{k(2e)(79e)}{KE}\\\\=\frac{k(2)(79)e^2}{KE}\\\\=\frac{9.0\times 10^9 \ N \cdot \frac{m^2}{c}(2)(79)(1.6 \times10^{-19} \ C)^2}{(2.25\ meV) (\frac{1.6 \times 10^{-13} \ J}{1 \ MeV})}\\\\$

$=\frac{9.0\times 10^9 \times 2\times 79\times 1.6 \times10^{-19}\times 1.6 \times10^{-19} }{(2.25 \times 1.6 \times 10^{-13}) }\\\\=\frac{3,640.32\times 10^{-29}}{3.6 \times 10^{-13} }\\\\=\frac{3,640.32}{3.6} \times 10^{-16}\\\\=1011.2 \times 10^{-16}\\\\=1.01 \times 10^{-13}$
