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.

Fofino [41]

Explanation:

Initial time, t₁ = 2:30 pm

Final time, t₂ = 2:30:45

We need to find the motion of students in terms of time. Final time is 45 seconds more than the initial time.

Change in time,

\Delta t=t_2-t_1\\\\\Delta t=2:30:45-2.30\\\\\Delta t=45\ s

Hence, this is the required solution.

A bowling ball starts from rest and moves 300 m down a long, downwardly angled track in 22.4 sec.a. What is its speed at the end
Sergio [31]

Answer:

The speed at the end of the track = 27 m/s

The acceleration = 1.2 m/s²

Please find the Δx vs Δt, v vs Δt, a  vs Δt

Explanation:

We have;

x = u·t + 1/2·a·t²

Where;

x = The distance = 300 m

u = The initial velocity = 0 m/s (Ball at rest)

t = The time taken = 22.4 s

Therefore;

300 = 0 + 1/2×a×22.4²

a = 2×300/22.4² = 1.19579 ≈ 1.2 m/s²

v = u + a×t

∴ v = 0 + 1.2 × 22.4 = 26.88 ≈ 27 m/s

Part of the table of values is as follows;

t,                                     x,                                          v

0,                                    0,                                        0

0.4,                                 0.095663,                         0.478316

0.8,                                 0.382653,                          0.956632

1.2,                                   0.860969,                         1.434948

1.6,                                   1.530611,                            1.913264

2,                                     2.39158,                              2.39158

2.4,                                  3.443875,                           2.869896

2.8,                                   4.687497,                          3.348212

3.2,                                   6.122445,                           3.826528

morpeh [17]
Research studies are made because they want to solve problems that are occurring in the society. The benefits of research would eventually benefit the politics, especially because they have the power to implement these solutions to the problems. They don't usually delve into research because it is too technical. It is not their area of expertise. Questions may come up that they can't answer.
