How does the orbital speed of an asteroid in a circular solar orbit with a radius of 4.0 AU compare to a circular solar orbit wi
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

The circular solar orbital speed at 4.0AU is 1/4( one fourth) that at 1.0AU

Explanation:

am = mvr= angular momentum

am4= 4mvt

am1= mvp1

Vt=1/4vp

Vp=4vt

am1= 4mvt

am1=am4

The circular solar orbital speed at 4.0AU is 1/4 (one fourth) that at 1.0AU

An airplane takes off at an angle of 75° from its starting point. when the plane has traveled a total distance of 600 feet, its
Alexxandr [17]
Draw a right triangle so that its hypotenuse is 600 ft. The adjacent side is below the vertical, and it makes an angle of 75° with the hypotenuse.

Let h =  height of the right triangle.
By definition,
sin75° = h/600
h = 600*sin75° = 579.555 = 580 ft (nearest ft)

Answer: 580 ft (nearest foot)

A 100 kg box sits on an incline held at rest by a very thin rope attached to another mass hanging as shown. The force of frictio
MAVERICK [17]

If friction is acting along the plane upwards

then in this case we will have

For equilibrium of 100 kg box on inclined plane we have

mgsin\theta = F_f + T

also for other side of hanging mass we have

T = Mg = 50(9.8) = 490 N

now we have

100(9.8)sin\theta = 100 + 490

980sin\theta = 590

sin\theta = 0.602

\theta = 37 degree

In other case we can assume that friction will act along the plane downwards

so now in that case we will have

mgsin\theta + F_f = T

also we have

T = Mg = 50(9.8) N

now we have

100(9.8)sin\theta + 100 = 50(9.8)

980sin\theta + 100 = 490

980 sin\theta = 490 - 100

sin\theta = 0.397

\theta = 23.45 degree

<em>So the range of angle will be 23.45 degree to 37 degree</em>
