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.

Nimfa-mama [501]
Charge on can A is positive. 
Charge on can C is negative.  
Punctuation and capitalization are very useful things to pay attention to and this question would be a lot easier to understand if you had actually used both capitalization and punctuation. If I'm understanding the question, you have 3 metal can that are insulated from the environment and initially touching each other in a straight line. Then a negatively charged balloon is brought near, but not touching one of the cans in that line of cans. While the balloon is near, the middle can is removed. Then you want to know the charge on the can that was nearest the balloon and the charge on the can that was furthermost from the balloon. 
 As the balloon is brought near to can a, the negative charge on the balloon repels some of the electrons from can a (like charges repel). Some of those electrons will flow to can b and in turn flow to can c. Basically you'll have a charge gradient that's most positive on that part of the can that's closest to the balloon, and most negative on the part of the cans that's furthest from the balloon. You then remove can B which causes cans A and C to be electrically isolated from each other and prevents the flow of elections to equalize the charges on cans A and C when the balloon is removed. So you're left with a deficiency of electrons on can A, so can A will have a positive overall charge, and an excess of electrons on can C, so can C will have a negative overall charge.

RideAnS [48]

Answer:

Explanation:

graph would be a straight line from (0, 0) to (400, 8)

Plot points are

PE = mgh

50(0) = 0 J

50(2) = 100 J

50(4) = 200 J

50(6) = 300 J

50(8) = 400 J

A 13-cm-diameter cd has a mass of 25 g . part a what is the cd's moment of inertia for rotation about a perpendicular axis throu
faltersainse [42]
<span>Answer: For a disc, the moment of inertia about the perpendicular axis through the center is given by 0.5MR^2. where M is the mass of the disc and R is the radius of the disc. For the axis through the edge, use parallel axis theorem. I = I(axis through center of mass) + M(distance between the axes)^2 = 0.5MR^2 + MR^2 (since the axis through center of mass is the axis through the center) = 1.5 MR^2</span>

A woman with mass 50 kg is standing on the rim of a large horizontal disk that is rotating at 0.80 rev/s about an axis through i
irinina [24]

Answer:

Angular momentum of disc + woman is given as

L = 9759 kg m^2/s

Explanation:

As we know that the angular momentum of disc + woman is given as

L = (I_{disk} + I_{woman}) \omega

here we know for disk moment of inertia is given as

I_{disk} = \frac{1}{2}mR^2

I_{disk} = \frac{1}{2}(110)(4.3)^2 = 1017 kg m^2

similarly for woman we will have

I_{woman} = MR^2

I_{woman} = (50)(4.3^2)

I_{woman} = 924.5 kg m^2

so we will have

\omega = 2\pi (0.80) rad/s

so angular momentum is given as

L = (1017 + 924.5)(2\pi 0.80)

L = 9759 kg m^2/s
