How are objects in space able to “fall” into orbit?

Zolol [24]

Answer:

MRCORRECT has answered the question

Explanation:

Newton realized that the reason the planets orbit the Sun is related to why objects fall to Earth when we drop them. The Sun's gravity pullson the planets, just as Earth's gravity pulls down anything that is not held up by some other force and keeps you and me on the ground.

An object is moving initially with a velocity of 4.7 m/s . After 3.9 s the object's velocity is -2.1 m/s . What is the object's

IgorC [24]

Answer: The acceleration of the object is 0.67m/s^2 west.

Explanation: Here we are given the initial velocity and final velocity as well as the time taken. Acceleration is the change in velocity per unit time, thus the equation becomes.

a=dv/t

a=vf-vi/t

a=-2.1-4.7/3.9

a= 0.66m/s^2 west

A car is moving at 19 m/s along a curve on a horizontal plane with radius of curvature 49m.

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

$\mu =0.75$

Explanation:

<u>Frictional Force </u>

When the car is moving along the curve, it receives a force that tries to take it from the road. It's called centripetal force and the formula to compute it is:

$F_c=m.a_c$

The centripetal acceleration a_c is computed as

$\displaystyle a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}$

Where v is the tangent speed of the car and r is the radius of curvature. Replacing the formula into the first one

$F_c=m.\frac{v^2}{r}$

For the car to keep on the track, the friction must have the exact same value of the centripetal force and balance the forces. The friction force is computed as

$F_r=\mu N$

The normal force N is equal to the weight of the car, thus

$F_r=\mu .m.g$

Equating both forces

$\displaystyle \mu .m.g=m.\frac{v^2}{r}$

Simplifying

$\displaystyle \mu =\frac{v^2}{rg}$

Substituting the values

$\displaystyle \mu =\frac{19^2}{(49)(9.8)}$

$\boxed{\mu =0.75}$

What is the difference between heat exhaustion and heat stroke?

balu736 [363]

I believe the answer is D, Heat exhaustion involves a lack of sweating, while heat stroke involves extreme sweating. Also just to add the on if heat exhaustion is left untreated then it could turn into a heat stroke.
