Answer:

or a roller coaster loop, if it were perfectly circular, we would have a minimum speed of vmin=√gR at the top of the loop where g=9.8m/s2 and R is the radius of the 'circle'. However, most roller coaster loops are actually not circular but more elliptical.

The thermal transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves through the vacuum of space is called

Olenka [21]

Answer: Radiation

Explanation:

There are three ways in which the thermal transfer occurs:

1. By Conduction, when the transmission is by the direct contact.

2. By Convection, heat transfer in fluids (like water or the air, for example).

3. By Radiation, by the electromagnetic waves (they can travel through any medium and in vacumm)

So, in the outter space is vacuum, this means the energy cannot be transmitted by convection, nor conduction. It must be transmitted by electromagnetic waves that are able to travel with or without a medium, and this is called radiation.

A 3.00-kg ball swings rapidly in a complete vertical circle of radius 2.00 m by a light string that is fixed at one end. The bal

Setler [38]

Answer

given,

mass of the ball = 3 kg

swing in vertical circle with radius = 2 m

work done by the gravity = ?

work done by the tension = ?

Work done by the gravity = - m g Δh

Δ h = 2 + 2 = 4 m

Work done by the gravity = $- 3 \times 9.8 \times 4$

= -117.6 J

work done by gravity is equal to -117.6 J

Work done by tension will be equal to zero.

Zero because tension is always perpendicular to velocity

work done by tension is equal to 0 J

Sphere A with mass 80 kg is located at the origin of an xy coordinate system; sphere B with mass 60 kg is located at coordinates

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

Fc = [ - 4.45 * 10^-8 j ] N

Explanation:

Given:-

- The masses and the position coordinates from ( 0 , 0 ) are:

Sphere A : ma = 80 kg , ( 0 , 0 )

Sphere B : ma = 60 kg , ( 0.25 , 0 )

Sphere C : ma = 0.2 kg , ra = 0.2 m , rb = 0.15

- The gravitational constant G = 6.674×10−11 m3⋅kg−1⋅s−2

Find:-

what is the gravitational force on C due to A and B?

Solution:-

- The gravitational force between spheres is given by:

F = G*m1*m2 / r^2

Where, r : The distance between two bodies (sphere).

- The vector (rac and rbc) denote the position of sphere C from spheres A and B:-

Determine the angle (α) between vectors rac and rab using cosine rule:

$cos ( \alpha ) = \frac{rab^2 + rac^2 - rbc^2}{2*rab*rac} \\\\cos ( \alpha ) = \frac{0.25^2 + 0.2^2 - 0.15^2}{2*0.25*0.2}\\\\cos ( \alpha ) = 0.8\\\\\alpha = 36.87^{\circ \:}$

Determine the angle (β) between vectors rbc and rab using cosine rule:

$cos ( \beta ) = \frac{rab^2 + rbc^2 - rac^2}{2*rab*rbc} \\\\cos ( \beta ) = \frac{0.25^2 + 0.15^2 - 0.2^2}{2*0.25*0.15}\\\\cos ( \beta ) = 0.6\\\\\beta = 53.13^{\circ \:}$

- Now determine the scalar gravitational forces due to sphere A and B on C:

Between sphere A and C:

Fac = G*ma*mc / rac^2

Fac = (6.674×10−11)*80*0.2 / 0.2^2

Fac = 2.67*10^-8 N

vector Fac = Fac* [ - cos (α) i + - sin (α) j ]

vector Fac = 2.67*10^-8* [ - cos (36.87°) i + -sin (36.87°) j ]

vector Fac = [ - 2.136 i - 1.602 j ]*10^-8 N

Between sphere B and C:

Fbc = G*mb*mc / rbc^2

Fbc = (6.674×10−11)*60*0.2 / 0.15^2

Fbc = 3.56*10^-8 N

vector Fbc = Fbc* [ cos (β) i - sin (β) j ]

vector Fbc = 3.56*10^-8* [ cos (53.13°) i - sin (53.13°) j ]

vector Fbc = [ 2.136 i - 2.848 j ]*10^-8 N

- The Net gravitational force can now be determined from vector additon of Fac and Fbc:

Fc = vector Fac + vector Fbc

Fc = [ - 2.136 i - 1.602 j ]*10^-8 + [ 2.136 i - 2.848 j ]*10^-8

Fc = [ - 4.45 * 10^-8 j ] N
