Answer:

 t = 1.51 hours

Explanation:

given,

Speed of space shuttle. v = 27800 Km/h

Radius of earth, R = 6380 Km

height of shuttle above earth, h = 320 Km

Total radius of the shuttle orbit

r' = R + h

r' = 6380 + 320

r' = 6700 Km

distance, d = 2 π r

   d = 2 π x 6700

time = \dfrac{distance}{speed}

time = \dfrac{2\pi\times 6700}{27800}

 t = 1.51 hours

Time require by the shuttle to circle the earth is equal to 1.51 hr.

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

Both of the stunt professionals will sustain injuries of the same seriousness

Explanation:

We are being told that both stunt professionals are standing from the same height, therefore they will attain the same  equivalent speed at the bottom if we are to look at it from the principle of conservation of energy.

Now; According to principle of momentum; the momentum at which the first stunt professional A hits the ground be equal as the momentum with which stunt professional B will hit the wall.

Thus; both of the stunt professionals will sustain injuries of the same seriousness

A 12 kg box sliding on a horizontal floor has an initial speed of 4.0 m/s. The coefficient of friction bctwecn thc box and the f
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

(D) 96 kg-m/s

Explanation:

Let's start off by first calculating the normal force between the box and the floor.

This will be:

Normal Force = 12 * 9.81 = 117.72 N

We can now use the friction equation to find the frictional force on the box when it is moving:

Frictional force = Coefficient of friction * Normal Force

Frictional force = 0.4 * 117.72 = 47.09 N

Finally, since we have the force on the box, we can find the acceleration:

F = Mass * Acceleration

47.09 = 12 * Acceleration

Acceleration = 3.92 m/s^2

Final speed after 2 seconds:

V=U+a*t

V = 4 +(-3.92)*(2)

V= -3.84 m/s

Since we know the initial and final speeds, we can calculate the change in momentum:

Change in momentum = Final Momentum - Initial Momentum

Change in momentum = 3.84*12-(-4)*12

Change in momentum = 94.08 kg*m/s

Thus we can see that option (D) is the closest answer.

Mama L [17]

Answer:

Txomin lifted the stone with greater mass. (Txomin levantó la roca con mayor fuerza).

Explanation:

The sportsman that lifts the stone with a greater mass needs a higher force (El deportista que levanta la piedra con mayor masa necesita una mayor fuerza):

José

F = (200\,kg)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)

F = 1961.4\,N

Txomin

F = (220\,kg)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)

F = 2157.54\,N

Txomin lifted the stone with greater mass. (Txomin levantó la roca con mayor fuerza).
