The approximate amount of thrust(force) you need to apply to the lander to

keep its velocity roughly constant is zero.

<h3>What is Newton's second law of motion?</h3>

Newton's second law of motion states that the acceleration the force acting

on the object is directly proportional to its rate of change of momentum.

F = m a

If the object is moving with uniform velocity, it simply means that the

acceleration is zero, and the corresponding force will also be zero.

Singly charged uranium-238 ions are accelerated through a potential difference of 2.90 kV and enter a uniform magnetic field of

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer: 0.091 m

Explanation:

r = 1/B * √(2mV/e), where

r = radius of their circular path

B = magnitude of magnetic field = 1.29 T

m = mass of Uranium -238 ion = 238 * amu = 238 * 1.6*10^-27 kg

V = potential difference = 2.9 kV

e = charge of the Uranium -238 ion = 1.6*10^-19 C

r = 1/1.29 * √[(2 * 238 * 1.6*10^-27 * 2900) / 1.6*10^-19]

r = 1/1.29 * √(2.21*10^-21 / 1.6*10^-19)

r = 1/1.29 * √0.0138

r = 1/1.29 * 0.117

r = 0.091 m

Therefore, the radius of their circular path is 0.091 m

According to a college survey, 22% of all students work full time. find the mean for the number of 3) students who work full tim

attashe74 [19]

Assuming that the students worldwide are being considered, because of the extremely large population, this can be considered as a binomial distribution. A normal distribution is used most usually as a fair approximation of the binomial. The mean is the expectation, therefore:<span>
E[x] = np = (16)(0.22) = 3.52
<span>μ = 3.52 </span></span>

Akio draws the ray diagram shown.

Inessa [10]

Answer: Move the small car so it appears on the left side of the lens.

Explanation:

Because the lens is reflective the small car would apear on the same side as the normal car.

Hope this helps :)

Suppose the student in (Figure 1) is 68kg, and the board being stood on has a 12kg mass. What is the reading on the left scale?

lesantik [10]

The equilibrium conditions allow to find the results for the balance forces are:

F₁ = 225.4 N

F₂ = 558.6 N

When the acceleration is zero we have the equilibrium conditions for both linear and rotational motion.

∑ F = 0

∑ τ = 0

Where F are the forces and τ the torques.

The torque is the product of the force and the perpendicular distance to the point of support,

The free-body diagrams are diagrams of the forces without the details of the bodies, see attached for the free-body diagram of the system.

We write the translational equilibrium condition.

F₁ - W₁ - W₂ + F₂ = 0

We write the equation for the rotational motion, set our point of origin at scale 1, and the counterclockwise turns are positive.

F₂ 2 - W₁ 1 - W₂ 1.5 = 0 $\frac{W_1 \ 1 + W_2 \ 1.5}{2}$
