Answer:

Tangential speed of objects on the planet’s surface = 241 m/s

Explanation:

Speed is given by the ratio of distance traveled to the time.

Radius of mars, r = 3397 km = 3.397 x 10⁶ m

Distance traveled = 2πr = 2 x π x 3.397 x 10⁶ = 2.13 x 10⁷ m

Time taken = 24.6 hours = 24.6 x 60 x 60 = 88560 s

\texttt{Tangential speed =}\frac{2.13\times 10^7}{88560}=240.51m/s

Tangential speed of objects on the planet’s surface = 240.51 m/s = 241 m/s

A ball of mass m is found to have a weight Wx on Planet X. Which of the following is a correct expression for the gravitational
Naya [18.7K]

Answer: B. The gravitational field strength of Planet X is Wx/m.

Explanation:

Weight is a force, and as we know by the second Newton's law:

F = m*a

Force equals mass times acceleration.

Then if the weight is:

Wx, and the mass is m, we have the equation:

Wx = m*a

Where in this case, a is the gravitational field strength.

Then, isolating a in that equation we get:

Wx/m = a

Then the correct option is:

B. The gravitational field strength of Planet X is Wx/m.

A 0.50-kg mass attached to the end of a string swings in a vertical circle (radius 2.0 m). When the mass is at the highest point
il63 [147K]

Answer:

31.1 N

Explanation:

m = mass attached to string = 0.50 kg

r = radius of the vertical circle = 2.0 m

v = speed of the mass at the highest point = 12 m/s

T = force of the string on the mass attached.

At the highest point, force equation is given as

T + mg =\frac{mv^{2}}{r}

Inserting the values

T + (0.50)(9.8) =\frac{(0.50)(12)^{2}}{2}

T = 31.1 N

You buy a AA battery in the store, and it is marked 1.5 V. If this marking is strictly accurate, while this battery is fresh its
vitfil [10]

Answer:

Option A is correct.

when it is used in a circuit. its terminal voltage will be less than 1.5 V.

Explanation:

The terminal voltage of the battery when it is in use in circuits drops lower than the 1.5 V rating given to it due to internal resistance.

All batteries give internal resistances when used in circuits. The internal resistance (though very small) is usually modelled as connected in series with the battery. It is due to some form of interference from the chemical makeup of the battery.

Normally, while the battery is fresh, the voltage (V) obtained at its terminals when connected in series with a resistor of resistance R is V = IR; where I is the current flowing in this circuit.

But once the interenal resistance (r) of the battery comes into play,

V = I₁ (r + R)

The current in the circuit evidently drops (that is I₁ < I) and V = (I₁r + I₁R)

The voltage across the terminals of the battery is no longer V but is now (V) × [R/(R+r)] which is less than the initial V and it reduces as the internal resistance, r, increases.

Hope this Helps!!!
