Answer:

The answer is C

Explanation:

The magnitude of the gravitational force depends inversely on the square of the radial distance between the centers of the two masses. Thus, essentially, the force can only fall to zero, when the denominator that is r becomes infinite.

A car, starting from the origin, travels

sweet [91]

Answer:

The net displacement of the car is 3 km West

Explanation:

Please see the attached drawing to understand the car's trajectory: First in the East direction for 4 km (indicated by the green arrow that starts at the origin (zero), and stops at position 4 on the right (East).

Then from that position, it moves back towards the West going over its initial path, it goes through the origin and continues for 3 more km completing a moving to the West a total of 7 km. This is indicated in the drawing with an orange trace that end in position 3 to the left (West) of zero.

So, its NET displacement considered from the point of departure (origin at zero) to the final point where the trip ended, is 3 km to the west.

If you know the amount of air pressure exerted on a tabletop, how can you calculate the force exerted on the tabletop? Multiply

babymother [125]

Answer:

Multiply the air pressure by the area of the tabletop.

Explanation:

The relationship between pressure, force and area is given by:

$p=\frac{F}{A}$

where in this case, p is the air pressure, F is the force exerted and A the area of the tabletop. By re-arranging the equation, we can solve for F, the force exerted:

$p=\frac{F}{A}\\p\cdot A=\frac{F}{A}\cdot A\\pA=F$

So, the correct answer is:

The force exerted on the tabletop can be found by multiplying the air pressure by the area of the tabletop.

A satellite at a particular point along an elliptical orbit has a gravitational potential energy of 5100 MJ with respect to Eart

serious [3.7K]

To solve this problem we will apply the theorem given in the conservation of energy, by which we have that it is conserved and that in terms of potential and kinetic energy, in their initial moment they must be equal to the final potential and kinetic energy. This is,

$E_{initial} = E_{final}$

$PE_{initial}+KE_{initial} = PE_{final}+KE_{final}$

Replacing the 5100MJ for satellite as initial potential energy, 4200MJ for initial kinetic energy and 5700MJ for final potential energy we have that

$KE_{final} = (PE_{initial}+KE_{initial} )-PE_{final}$

$KE_{final} = (5100+4200)-5700$

$KE_{final} = 3600MJ$

Therefore the final kinetic energy is 3600MJ

The coefficient of kinetic friction between an object and the surface upon which it is sliding is 0.10. The mass of the object i

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

Explanation:

1) Force Friction = Normal Force * Coefficient of Friction

Force Friction = Mass * Gravity * Coefficient of Friction

2) F = ma

Force = mass * acceleration

Force Friction (from #1) = mass * acceleration

acceleration = Force Friction / Mass

Give reasons.<br>a) Sunlight does not fall on the ground where cloud forms shadow.

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

Sunlight passing through a cloud is scattered in various directions. Some photons eventually find their way out the bottom of the cloud, some are reflected upwards, and some are absorbed, serving to warm the cloud. Since only a fraction of the light makes it to ground level, you have a shadow.

Explanation:

Hope it helps you
