"decreasing the distance of the space shuttle from Earth"
F = Gm(1)m(2)/R²
where R is the distance between the 2 objects, as it decreases, the force increases.
Answer:
a) Yes because spiderman isn’t part of the system (the train), so he exerts an external force on the system, causing it to slow. The sign is negative because the train is slowing negative.
b) The train was initially moving, so it had kinetic energy, the energy of movement. There isn’t the same amount anymore because spiderman did work onto the train. Work is defined by the change of kinetic energy of the system, so the train didn’t have the same amount of that type of energy at the end.
I hope this helps! :)
Explanation:
For equilibrium,
.
So,
= 0

= 
= 705.6 N
Also, for equilibrium
= 0
= 0
or, 
= 
= 176.4 N
Thus, we can conclude that the tension in the first rope is 176.4 N.
Answer:
a. 8.96 m/s b. 1.81 m
Explanation:
Here is the complete question.
a) A long jumper leaves the ground at 45° above the horizontal and lands 8.2 m away.
What is her "takeoff" speed v
0
?
b) Now she is out on a hike and comes to the left bank of a river. There is no bridge and the right bank is 10.0 m away horizontally and 2.5 m, vertically below.
If she long jumps from the edge of the left bank at 45° with the speed calculated in part a), how long, or short, of the opposite bank will she land?
a. Since she lands 8.2 m away and leaves at an angle of 45 above the horizontal, this is a case of projectile motion. We calculate the takeoff speed v₀ from R = v₀²sin2θ/g. where R = range = 8.2 m.
So, v₀ = √gR/sin2θ = √9.8 × 8.2/sin(2×45) = √80.36/sin90 = √80.36 = 8.96 m/s.
b. We use R = v₀²sin2θ/g to calculate how long or short of the opposite bank she will land. With v₀ = 8.96 m/s and θ = 45
R = 8.96²sin(2 × 45)/9.8 = 80.2816/9.8 = 8.192 m.
So she land 8.192 m away from her bank. The distance away from the opposite bank she lands is 10 - 8.192 m = 1.808 m ≅ 1.81 m
Answer:
A. The sound wave will reflect off Buildings and automobiles.
Explanation:
This is because the sound waves would more likely propagate through diffraction through buildings and transmission through the air. It is also more likely to be absorbed by buildings than for multiple reflections to occur off buildings and automobiles. In the process of reflection, these materials would absorb the sound energy thereby reducing its ability to reflect.
