Hi there!

This is an example of a recoil collision.

Using the conservation of momentum:

$p_i = p_f$

The initial momentum is 0 kgm/s (objects start from rest), so:

$p_f = 0$

We are given that the 15 kg block has a velocity of 12 m/s to the left, so:

$m_1v_1' + m_2v_2' = 0 \\\\15(-12) + 18v_2' = 0 \\\\$

Solve for v2':

$18v_2' = 180 \\\\v_2' = \boxed{10 m/s}$

In series circuit, Req = R₁ + R₂ + R₃ + ···

In parallel circuit, $\frac{1}{Req} = \frac{1}{R1} + \frac{1}{R2} + \frac{1}{R3} +...$

total resistance in the upper branch = R₂ + R₃ = R₂ + 2

$\frac{1}{Req} = \frac{1}{R2+R3} + \frac{1}{R1}$

$\frac{1}{4} = \frac{1}{R2+2} +\frac{1}{6}$

R₂ + 2 = 12

R₂ = 10Ω

$\frac{1}{Req} = \frac{1}{R2+R3} + \frac{1}{R1}$

$\frac{1}{Req} = \frac{1}{2+1} + \frac{1}{4}$

Req = 1.7Ω

A satellite that goes around the earth once every 24 hours (86,400 s) is called a geosynchronous satellite. If a geosynchronous

Olegator [25]

Answer:

42244138.951 m

Explanation:

G = Gravitational constant = 6.667 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²

r = Radius of orbit from center of earth

M = Mass of Earth = 5.98 × 10²⁴ kg

m = Mass of Satellite

The satellite revolves around the Earth at a constant speed

Speed = Distance / Time

The distance is the perimeter of the orbit

$v=\frac{2\pi \times r}{24\times 3600}$

The Centripetal force of the satellite is balanced by the universal gravitational force

$m\frac{v^2}{r}=\frac{GMm}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow \frac{\left(\frac{2\pi \times r}{24\times 3600}\right)^2}{r}=\frac{6.667\times 10^{-11}\times 5.98\times 10^{24}}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow \left(\frac{2\pi \times r}{24\times 3600}\right)^2=6.667\times 10^{-11}\times 5.98\times 10^{24}\\\Rightarrow r^3=\frac{6.667\times 10^{-11}\times 5.98\times 10^{24}\times (24\times 3600)^2}{(2\pi)^2}\\\Rightarrow r=\left(\frac{6.667\times 10^{-11}\times 5.98\times 10^{24}\times (24\times 3600)^2}{(2\pi)^2}\right)^{\frac{1}{3}}\\\Rightarrow r=42244138.951\ m$

The radius as measured from the center of the Earth) of the orbit of a geosynchronous satellite that circles the earth is 42244138.951 m

what is the main reason that attitudes are more often revealed in spoken rather than written language

pishuonlain [190]

It's a combination of all those things. probably because we are taught from an early age to write in an academic fashion, giving balanced arguments and a conclusion. When speaking from the heart, there is no opposing argument nor is there a conclusion, just emotion.

What do understand by the efficiency of a machine? By using a block and tackel a man can raise a load of 720 N by an effort of 1

motikmotik

Answer:

Efficiency of a machine is how well the machine works and what the machine is capable of doing.

Mechanical advantage=Load/Effort.

720/180=4
