Answer:
83%
Explanation:
On the surface, the weight is:
W = GMm / R²
where G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of the Earth, m is the mass of the shuttle, and R is the radius of the Earth.
In orbit, the weight is:
w = GMm / (R+h)²
where h is the height of the shuttle above the surface of the Earth.
The ratio is:
w/W = R² / (R+h)²
w/W = (R / (R+h))²
Given that R = 6.4×10⁶ m and h = 6.3×10⁵ m:
w/W = (6.4×10⁶ / 7.03×10⁶)²
w/W = 0.83
The shuttle in orbit retains 83% of its weight on Earth.
Hello!
First one we can use that PE=mgh so we have
4.37*10^5J/(9.12*10^3kg*9.80m/s^2)= 4.89m
Second one we can use Newton’s Second Law
F=ma and in this case F=mg so we have
g= 3.28*10^-2N/6*10^-3kg = 5.47m/s^2
Hope this helps. Any questions please ask. Thank you.
Answer:
+5m/s
Explanation:
When doing the math we figure out that e is going to be slowing down at -4m/s² for 5 seconds. In total he is slowing down -20m/s which we take from the total speed of +25m/s to get his current new speed.
Answer:
From ohms law,
V=IR
R=V/I =12.0/150 =0.08 ohm.
