Acceleration is the rate at which velocity changes, which means that acceleration tells you how fast the velocity is changing. A large acceleration tells you that the velocity is changing quickly - a small acceleration tells you that the velocity is changing slowly - an acceleration of zero tells you that the velocity is not changing at all.

Acceleration tells you how the velocity changes - it doesn't tell how how much the velocity is! An object can have a large velocity and a small (or zero) acceleration - and vice versa.

A TV satellite dish is designed to receive radio waves of wavelength

Verizon [17]

Answer:

4.7 GHz

Explanation:

Applying,

v = λf................. Equation 1

Where v = velocity of the radio wave, λ = wavelength, f = frequency

make f the subject of the equation

f = v/λ.............. Equation 2

Note: A radio wave is an electromagnetic wave, as such it moves with a velocity of 3.00 x 10⁸ m/s

From the question,

Given: λ = 0.0644 meters

Constant: v = <em>3.00 x 10⁸ m/s</em>

Substitute these values into equation 2

f = (3.00 x 10⁸)/0.0644

f = 4.66×10⁹ Hz

f = 4.7 GHz

The slider of mass m is released from rest in position A and slides without friction along the vertical-plane guide shown. Deter

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

The value of normal force as the slider passes point B is

6 mg

The value of h when the normal force is zero

3R/2

<h3>How to solve for the normal force</h3>

The normal force is calculated using the work energy principle which is applied as below

K₁ + U₁ = K₂

k represents kinetic energy

U represents potential energy

the subscripts 1,2 , and 3 = a, b, and c

for 1 to 2

K₁ + W₁ = K₂

0 + mg(h + R) = 0.5mv²₂

g(h + R) = 0.5v²₂

v²₂ = 2g(1.5R + R)

v²₂ = 2g(2.5R)

v²₂ = 5gR

Using summation of forces at B

Normal force, N = ma + mg

N = m(a + g)

N = m(v²₂/R + g)

N = m(5gR/R + g)

N = 6mg

for 1 to 3

K₁ + W₁ = K₃ + W₃

0 + mgh = 0.5mv²₃ + mgR

gh = 0.5v²₃ + gR

0.5v²₃ = gh - gR

v²₃ = 2g(h - R)

at C

for normal force to be zero

ma = mg

v²₃/R = g

v²₃ = gR

and v²₃ = 2g(h - R)

gR = 2gh - 2gR

gR + 2gR = 2gh

3gR = 2gh

3R/2 = h

Two identical silver spheres of mass m and radius r are placed a distance R (sphere 1) and 2R (sphere 2) from the Sun, respectiv

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

The ratio of T2 to T1 is 1.0

Explanation:

The gravitational force exerted on each sphere by the sun is inversely proporational to the square of the distance between the sun and each of the spheres.

Provided that the two spheres have the same radius r, the pressure of solar radiation too, is inversely proportional to the square of the distance of each sphere from the sun.

Let F₁ and F₂ = gravitational force of the sun on the first and second sphere respectively

P₁ and P₂ = Pressure of solar radiation on the first and second sphere respectively

M = mass of the Sun

m = mass of the spheres, equal masses.

For the first sphere that is distance R from the sun.

F₁ = (GmM/R²)

P₁ = (k/R²)

T₁ = (F₁/P₁) = (GmM/k)

For the second sphere that is at a distance 2R from the sun

F₂ = [GmM/(2R)²] = (GmM/4R²)

P₂ = [k/(2R)²] = (k/4R²)

T₂ = (F₂/P₂) = (GmM/k)

(T₁/T₂) = (GmM/k) ÷ (GmM/k) = 1.0

Hope this Helps!!!
