Earth. What is its weight at a distance of one Earth

radius above the surface of Earth?

1) 800 N

3) 100 N

2) 400 N

4) 50 N

Answers

Answer 1

The weight of the satellite at a distance of one Earth radius above the surface of Earth is 40 N.

The given parameters:

Weight of the satellite, F = 200 NOne Earth radius above the surface of Earth = 2R

The gravitational force on the satellite is calculated by applying Newton's law of universal gravitation is calculated as;

[tex]F = \frac{Gm_1m_2}{R^2} \\\\F_1 R_1^2 = F_2R_2^2\\\\F_2 = \frac{F_1 R_1^2 }{R_2^2} \\\\F_2 =\frac{200 \times R_1^2}{(2R_1)^2} \\\\F_2 = \frac{200 \times R_1^2 }{4R_1} \\\\F_2 = 40 \ N[/tex]

Thus, the weight of the satellite at a distance of one Earth radius above the surface of Earth is 40 N.

an object that is 15 cm tall is placed 44 cm in front of a diverging lens. A virtual image appears -14cm in front of the lens. determine the focal length of the lens .
SHOW YOUR WORK.
A) 0.09cm
B)-20.53cm
C)10.6cm
D)-0.04cm

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is (b).

Explanation:

Given that,

The height of the object, h = 15 cm

Object distance, u = -44 cm

Image distance, v = -14 cm

We need to find the focal length of the lens. Using the lens formula.

[tex]\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{u}\\\\\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{(-14)}-\dfrac{1}{(-44)}\\\\f=-20.53\ cm[/tex]

So, the focal length of the lens (-20.53 cm).

A 1000 kg car accelerates from rest at a rate of 10 m/s² for 3 seconds. A) what is the final velocity of the car?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

We don't need the mass of the car in the equation to solve for final velocity, since the values given for the acceleration and the time it took to accelerate to that velocity are given. The equation we need is the one for acceleration, which is

[tex]a=\frac{v_f-v_0}{t}[/tex] We are solving for final velocity, we know the initial velocity is 0 (starting from rest), and the time to complete this acceleration (10 m/s/s) is 3 seconds:

[tex]10=\frac{v_f-0}{3}[/tex] which is the same thing as saying

[tex]10=\frac{v}{3}[/tex] so

v = 30 m/s

A bus travels with a constant speed of 48km/h. How long will it take to travel 60km?

Answers

Answer:

It will take 1 hr and 15 mins.

Explanation:

Let's look at the speed equation:

s=d/t

We want to find the time, and we have the speed and the distance, so we rearrange the equation. t will be on one side and s and d will be on the other side.

t=d/s

t=60km/(48km/h)

t=1.25h

The equivalent resistances of two wires connected in series and in parallel are 25 ohm and 4 ohm respectively. Calculate the resistance of each wire.

Answers

Answer:

5ohms and 20ohms

Explanation:

Let the resistance of each wire be R1 and R2, if the equivalent resistance in series is 25 ohms, then;

R1 + R2 = 25 ...1

If the equivalent in parallel is 4 ohm, then;

1/R1 + 1/R2 = 1/4

R2+R1/R1R2 = 1/4

Cross multiply

4(R2+R1) = R1R2 ...2

From 1;

R1 = 25 - R2 ... 3

Substitute 3 into 2

4(R2+25-R2) = (25-R2)R2

4(25) = (25-R2)R2

100 = 25R2 - R2²

R₂² -25R₂+100 = 0

R₂² -20R₂-5R₂+100 = 0

R₂(R₂-20)-5(R₂-20) = 0

(R₂-5)(R₂-20)=0

R₂ = 5 or 20

Since R₁ = 25-R₂

R₁ = 25 - 5

R₁ = 20

Hence the resistances are 5ohms and 20ohms

O A. 48.5J
B. 41.2J
O C. 43.9 J
O D. 37.5J

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Although there is absolutely NO regard for significant digits, I can help you with this, nonetheless.

The equation for Potential Energy is PE = mgh. We have everything but the height of the ball. We have to solve for that using a one-dimensional motion equation:

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx, where Δx is our displacement (the height we need for PE). Filling in and keeping in mind that at the max height of parabolic travel, the final velocity of the object is 0:

0 = (21.5)² + 2(-9.8)Δx and

0 = 462.25 - 19.6Δx and

-462.25 = -19.6Δx so

Δx = 23.58 m. Using this as the h in our PE equation:

PE = .19(9.8)(23.58) so

PE = 43.9 J, choice C.

What effect does the distance between Earth and the Sun have on Earth’s seasons?

Answers

Answer:

So actually, it is not so much the distance at a particular time that affects the seasons. It is a common misconception. It is in-fact the earths tilt. When we rotate around the sun, due to our tilt, the North and South of earth have different seasons. This is because when light is shining on to earth, because of Earths tilt, on one half the light shines more directly and on the other it scatters thus the different temperatures, causing season. Hope this helps.

The specitic heat capacity of oxygen is 918 J/kg °C. The specific heat capacity of water is 4181 J/kg °C. Which substance will require more energy to raise its temperature by 1°C?​

Answers

Answer:

Water

Explanation:

Given the specific heat of oxygen is 918J/kg °C and the specific heat of water is 4181 J/kg °C.

Consider 1Kg mass of each substance.

Now 1 Kg of oxygen needs 918 J of energy to raise its temperature by 1 °C

Also, 1 Kg of water needs 4181 J of energy to raise its temperature by 1 °C.

Clearly water requires more energy when compared to oxygen.

Basically, specific heat capacity is the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of a 1 kg body by 1 °C.

the length of second hand of clock is 14cm, an ant sits on the top of second hand. find the following
i) speed of ant
ii) distance covered by ant in 150 seconds
iii) displacement in 150 seconds

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

i) Since the length of the second clock (radius) is 14 cm = 0.14 m, the distance covered by the second hand in one revelution is:

Distance covered = 2πr = 2π(0.14) = 0.88 m

The time taking to complete one revolution = 60 seconds, hence;

Speed = distance covered in one revolution / time take o complete a revolution

Speed = 0.88 m / 60 s = 0.0147 m/s

ii) Distance covered in 150 s = speed * 150 s = 0.0147 * 150 = 2.2 m

iii) Displacement in 150 seconds = distance from initial position to final position

At 150 s, the hand has covered 2 revolutions and moved 30 s. Hence:

Displacement in 150 seconds = speed * 30 s = 0.0147 * 30 = 0.44 m

Answers

Question: A ship anchored at sea is rocked by waves that have crests 100 m apart the waves travel at 70m/S, at what frequency do the waves reach the ship?

Answer:

0.7 Hz

Explanation:

Applying,

v = λf............... Equation 1

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

make f the subject of the equation

f = v/λ................. Equation 2

From the question,

Given: v = 70 m/s, λ = 100 m ( distance between successive crest)

Substitute these values into equation 2

f = 70/100

f = 0.7 Hz

Hence the frequency at which the wave reach the ship is 0.7 Hz

[tex] V = U + at[/tex]

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial velocity = 0 (since the stone is starting from rest).

Final velocity = 32 m/s

Acceleration = g = 10 m/s²

Time = 3.2 seconds

To show that the speed of the stone when it hits the ground is 32 m/s, we would use the first equation of motion;

[tex] V = U + at[/tex]

Where;

V is the final velocity. U is the initial velocity. a is the acceleration. t is the time measured in seconds.

Substituting into the formula, we have;

[tex] 32 = 0 + 10*3.2[/tex]

[tex] 32 = 0 + 32 [/tex]

[tex] 32 = 32 [/tex]

Proven: 32 m/s = 32 m/s

Two uniform bars of the same dimensions are constructed from the same material. One bar has five evenly spaced holes through it and the second bar has only two holes. In these cases, the bars are slid over vertical pegs and rest on a horizontal surface, where friction between the bar and the surface is negligible. The two bars are each pulled by

horizontal forces of equal magnitude F from their right end as shown above. The bars' resulting angular accelerations are recorded.


Is the magnitude of the initial angular acceleration of the bar in case 1 larger than, smaller than or equal to the magnitude of the initial angular acceleration of the bar in Case 2? Explain your reasoning.

Answers

Solution :

The angular acceleration, [tex]$\alpha$[/tex] is obtained from the equation of the [tex]$\text{Newton's second law}$[/tex] of rotational motion,

Thus,

[tex]$\tau = F \times d$[/tex]

or [tex]$\tau = I \times \alpha$[/tex]

where [tex]$\tau$[/tex] is torque, F is force, d is moment arm distance, I is the moment of inertia

Thus, [tex]$\alpha=\frac{(F\times d)}{I}$[/tex]

Now if the force and the moment arm distance are constant, then the [tex]\text{angular acceleration is inversely proportional to the moment of inertia.}[/tex]

That is when, F = d = constant, then  [tex]$\alpha \propto \frac{1}{I}$[/tex] .

Thus, moment of inertia, I is proportional to mass of the bar.

The mass is less for the bar in case (1) in comparison with that with the bar in case (2) due to the holes that is made in the bar.

Therefore, the bar in case (1), has less moment of inertia and a greater angular acceleration.
