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.

Answer:

4.7\cdot 10^{-14}N

Explanation:

For a charge moving perpendicularly to a magnetic field, the force experienced by the charge is given by:

F=qvB

where

q is the magnitude of the charge

v is the velocity

B is the magnetic field strength

In this problem,

q=1.6\cdot 10^{-19} C

v=6.5\cdot 10^6 m/s

B=4.5\cdot 10^{-2} T

So the force experienced by the electrons is

F=(1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C)(6.5\cdot 10^6 m/s)(4.5\cdot 10^{-2} T)=4.7\cdot 10^{-14}N

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

a 15.22 m/s

b 45.65 m

Explanation:

Using the same formula,

x = vt, where

x is now 45.65, and

t is 3 s, then

45.65 = 3v

v = 45.65/3

v = 15.22 m/s

See the attachment for the part b. We used the distance gotten in part B, to find question A

Carla sees an equation that models a nuclear change.
victus00 [196]

Answer:

C. nuclear fusion, because the equation shows two hydrogen nuclei combining to form a helium nucleus

Explanation:

Nuclear reaction can either be; fission or fusion. Nuclear fission is the process by which a massive nucleus breaks in to two smaller nuclei of almost the same size with the release of high amount of energy. Nuclear fusion is the process by which two nuclei reacts, joins, to produce a massive nucleus (compared to the masses of the reacting elements) with the release of high amount of energy.

From the given equation, two hydrogen isotopes; deuterium and tritium reacts with each other to produce helium nucleus and a neutron.

This reaction is a nuclear fusion which produces a massive nuclei.

four children pull on the same stuffed toy at the same time , yet there is no net force on the toy.how is this possible?
Kay [80]
There was no net force on the stuffed toy, because the kids might have the same strength,  The same force is on both sides of it.  T<span>hey cancel each other out. They exert a force on the stuffed toy equal in strength but opposite in direction. The forces are balanced and the stuffed toy does not move.  </span>Its like a game of tug-o-war, but you and I have the same strength. the rope would be still and not moving.
