Answer:

500000000 lbft/s

Explanation:

F = Force or weight = 1000000 lbf

s = Displacement = 10000 ft

t = Time taken = 20 seconds

Work done is given by

$W=Fs\\\Rightarrow W=1000000\times 10000\\\Rightarrow W=10000000000\ lb-ft$

Power is given by

$P=\dfrac{W}{t}\\\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{10000000000}{20}\\\Rightarrow P=500000000\ lbft/s$

One Saucer power is 500000000 lbft/s

Answer:

19080667.0818 m/s

0.637294 m

$2.1875\times 10^{15}$

Explanation:

m = Mass of deuterons = $3.34\times 10^{-27}\ kg$

v = Velocity

K = Kinetic energy = 3.8 MeV

d = Diameter

B = Magnetic field = 1.25 T

q = Charge of electron = $1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

t = Time = 1 s

i = Current = 350 μA

Kinetic energy is given by

$K=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2K}{m}}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 3.8\times 10^6\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{3.34\times 10^{-27}}}\\\Rightarrow v=19080667.0818\ m/s$

The speed of the deuterons when they exit is 19080667.0818 m/s

In this system the centripetal and magnetic force will balance each other

$\dfrac{mv^2}{r}=qvB\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{mv^2}{\dfrac{d}{2}}=qvB\\\Rightarrow d=\dfrac{2mv}{qB}\\\Rightarrow d=\dfrac{2\times 3.34\times 10^{-27}\times 19080667.0818}{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.25}\\\Rightarrow d=0.637294\ m$

The diameter is 0.637294 m

Current is given by

$i=\dfrac{nq}{t}\\\Rightarrow n=\dfrac{it}{q}\\\Rightarrow n=\dfrac{350\times 10^{-6}\times 1}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}\\\Rightarrow n=2.1875\times 10^{15}$

The number of deuterons is $2.1875\times 10^{15}$

Answer:

The resultant velocity is $v_t=10 knots$

Explanation:

Apply the law of conservation of momentum

$M_L *v_L + M_f * V_f = (M_L + M_f) v_t$

Where $M_L$ is the mass of the Luxury Liner = 40,000 ton

$v_L$ is the velocity of Luxury Liner = 20 knots due west

$M_f$ mass of freighter = 60,000

$v_f$ is the velocity of freighter = 10 knots due north

Apply the law of conservation of momentum toward the the west direction

$v_f = 0 \ knots$

So the equation would be

$M_L *v_L = (M_L + M_f) v_t$

Substituting values

$40000*20 = (40000+ 60000)v_t_w$

Where $v_t_w$ the final velocity due west

Making $v_t_w$ the subject

$v_t_w = \frac{40,000* 20}{(40000 + 60000)}$

$= 8 \ knots$

Apply the law of conservation of momentum toward the the north direction

$v_L = 0 \ knots$

So the equation would be

$M_f *v_f = (M_L + M_f) v_t_n$

Where $v_t_n$ the final velocity due north

Making $v_t_n$ the subject

$v_t_n = \frac{60,000* 10}{(40000 + 60000)}$

$= 6 \ knots$

The resultant velocity is

$v_t = \sqrt{v_t_w^2 + v_t_n^2}$

$= \sqrt{8^2 +6^2}$

$v_t=10 knots$

Which statement best describes the relationship between mass and gravitational attraction (pull)?

Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

The first option, "The more mass an object has, the greater the gravitational pull. "

Explanation:

Newton's Law of Gravity states that $F_G=\frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^{2}}$ , where G is the gravitational constant, $m_1$ and $m_2$ are the masses of the two objects, and <em>r</em> is the distance between the objects' centers. Because the objects' masses are in the fraction's numerator, they are directly proportional to $F_G$ , and increasing the mass of one or both objects increases the gravitational pull.

Please have a great day! I hope this helps you understand the question!
