Physics
1 answer:
nignag [31]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

A.Satellites achieve a balance between gravity and their velocity that keeps them in orbit.

Explanation:

This balance is called momentum gravity balance

The three forces acting on a hot-air balloon that is moving vertically are its weight, the force due to air resistance and the u
irinina [24]

Explanation :

The forces acting on hot- air balloon are:

Weight, (W)

Force due to air resistance, (F)

Upthrust force, (U)

Its weight W is acting in downward direction. The upthrust force U acts in upward direction. When the balloon is moving upward, the air resistance is in downward and vice versa.

In this case, the hot-air balloon descends vertically at constant speed.

so, a=0

and F=ma=0

so, W = F + U ....................(1)

when it is ascending let the weight that it is releasing is R, so

(W-R) + F = U..........(2)

solving equation (1) and (2)

(W-R)+F=W-F

R=2F            

2F is the weight of material that must be released from the balloon so that it ascends vertically at the same constant speed.

A skater is using very low friction rollerblades. A friend throws a Frisbee at her, on the straight line along which she is coas
kupik [55]

Answer:

a)  perfectly inelastic,  b)  collision is inelastic,  c)   elastic  

Explanation:

In this exercise, it is asked to identify what type of shock occurs between the skater and the frisbee, for this we must define a system formed by the skater and the fribee, so that the forces during the crash have been internal and the amount of movement is preserved

Initial instant. Before the skater touches the frisbee

    p₀ = M v₁ + m v₂

where M and m are the masses of the skater and frisbee, respectively

for the final moment they give us several possibilities, in all case the moment is conserved

       p₀ = p_{f}

case a)

Final instant. grabs the frisbee and holds it

    p_{f} = (M + m) v '

     p₀ = p_{f}

We can see that this shock is perfectly inelastic, it holds the fressbee

case b)

final instant.

This case is similar to the previous one, but the final speed of fresbee is zero, therefore this collision is inelastic and the kinetic energy is not conserved.

case c)

final instant. Grab the fressbee and resend it

      p_{f} = M v_{1f} + m v_{2f}

this is an elastic Shock since the equivalent of a rebound of the fressbee, the kinetic energy is conserved.
