6 0

Answer:

2.1km

Explanation:

Ill take it as u are talking about the displacement

Since displacement has negatives and positves

5.9 - 3.8 = 2.1km

If a negatively charged rod is held near a neutral metal ball, the ball is attracted to the rod. This happens:_______
qaws [65]

Answer:

<em>c. because the rod polarizes the metal.</em>

Explanation:

Bringing the negatively charged rod close to the neutral metal ball causes the neutral metal ball to be polarized with induced positive charge on it. The polarizing of the formally neutral metal ball is due to the negative charge on the metal rod (bodies induce a charge opposite of their own charge on a nearby neutral body). The ball and rod then attract themselves because bodies with opposite charges attract each other, unlike bodies with same charges that repel each other.

Use Kepler's third law to find the planet's average distance (semimajor axis) from its star. (Hint: Because the mass of the star
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

Explanation: The planet average distance = 42300km

Kepler's 3rd Law also known as the Harmonic Law states that;

for each planet orbitting the sun, its side real period squared divided by the cube of the semi-major axis of the orbit is a constant.

A planet, mass m, orbits the sun, mass M, in a circle of radius r and a period t. The net force on the planet is a centripetal force, and is caused the force of gravity between the sun and the planet.

A trailer truck with a 2000 [kg] cab and a 8000 [kg] trailer is traveling on a level road at 90 [km/hr].The brakes on the traile
NeX [460]

Answer:

a)   t = 19.6 s, b) fr = 1.274 10⁴ N

Explanation:

This is a Newton's second law problem

Y Axis

for the cabin

        N₁-W₁ = 0

        N₁ = W₁

for the trailer

        N₂- W₂ = 0

        N₂ = W₂

X axis

for the cabin plus trailer, where friction is only in the cabin

         fr = (m₁ + m₂) a

the friction force equation is

        fr = μ N

we substitute

       μ N₁ = (m₁ + m₂) a

        μ m₁ g = (m₁ + m₂) a

        a = μ g    \frac{m_1}{m_1 + m_2}

         

let's calculate

         a = 0.65 9.8    \frac{2000}{2000+8000}

         a = 1,274 m / s²

a) to find the stopping distance we can use kinematics

         Let's slow down the sI system

         v₀ = 90 km / h (1000 m / 1km) (1h / 3600s) = 25 m / s

         v = v₀ - a t

when it is stopped its speed is zero

           0 = v₀ - at

           t = v₀ / a

           t = 25 / 1.274

           t = 19.6 s

b) the friction force is

           fr = 0.65 2000 9.8

          fr = 1.274 10⁴ N

This is the braking force and also the forces that couple the cars.
