Which of the following statements are true of an object in orbit around Earth? (Select all that apply.) The gravity force on the

object always has components both parallel and perpendicular to the object's velocity. If the orbit is circular, the gravity force is perpendicular to the object's velocity. If the orbit is elliptical, the gravity force is perpendicular to the velocity vector only at the nearest and farthest points. If the orbit is not circular, the speed is greatest when the object is farthest away from Earth. All these statements are true.

Answer:

All these statement are true

Explanation:

Gravity will be acting like a centripetal force for the circular motion of object around earth, which makes it perpendicular to the velocity vector. In the case of elliptical motion, gravity can still be divided into 2 vectors, one parallel and the other perpendicular to the velocity. At the nearest point in elliptical motion, gravity is directly perpendicular to velocity just like in circular motion. At the farthest point, the potential energy is minimized and has been converted into kinetic energy. Therefore at this point the speed is greatest.

Amanda [17]

Answer:

amount of energy  = 4730.4 kWh/yr

amount of money = 520.34 per year

payback period = 0.188 year

Explanation:

given data

light fixtures = 6

lamp = 4

power = 60 W

average use = 3 h a day

price of electricity = $0.11/kWh

to find out

the amount of energy and money that will be saved and simple payback period if the purchase price of the sensor is $32 and it takes 1 h to install it at a cost of $66

solution

we find energy saving by difference in time the light were

ΔE = no of fixture × number of lamp × power of each lamp × Δt

ΔE is amount of energy save and Δt is time difference

so

ΔE = 6 × 4 × 365 ( 12 - 9 )

ΔE = 4730.4 kWh/yr

and

money saving find out by energy saving and unit cost that i s

ΔM = ΔE × Munit

ΔM = 4730.4 × 0.11

ΔM = 520.34 per year

and

payback period is calculate as

payback period = \frac{excess initial cost}{\Delta M}

payback period = \frac{32 + 66}{520.34}

payback period = 0.188 year

When a test charge q0 = 2 nC is placed at the origin, it experiences a force of 8 times 10-4 N in the positive y direction. What
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

Electric field, E=4\times 10^5\ N/C

Explanation:

It is given that,

Magnitude of charge, q_o=2\ nC=2\times 10^{-9}\ C

Force experienced, F=8\times 10^{-4}\ N

We need to find the electric field at the origin. It is given by :

F=q_o\times E

E=\dfrac{F}{q_o}

E=\dfrac{8\times 10^{-4}}{2\times 10^{-9}}

E=4\times 10^5\ N/C

So, the electric field at the origin is 4\times 10^5\ N/C. Hence, this is the required solution.

the temperature of a 2.0-kg increases by 5*c when 2,000 J of thermal energy are added to the block. What is the specific heat of
nata0808 [166]
To calculate the specific heat capacity of an object or substance, we can use the formula

c = E / m△T

Where
c as the specific heat capacity,
E as the energy applied (assume no heat loss to surroundings),
m as mass and
△T as the energy change.

Now just substitute the numbers given into the equation.

c = 2000 / 2 x 5
c = 2000/ 10
c = 200

Therefore we can conclude that the specific heat capacity of the block is 200 Jkg^-1°C^-1

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.

The current in a long solenoid of radius 6 cm and 17 turns/cm is varied with time at a rate of 5 A/s. A circular loop of wire of
jonny [76]

Answer:

53.63 μA

Explanation:

radius of solenoid, r = 6 cm

Area of solenoid = 3.14 x 6 x 6 = 113.04 cm^2 = 0.0113 m^2

n = 17 turns / cm = 1700 /m

di / dt = 5 A/s

The magnetic field due to the solenoid is given by

B = μ0 n i

dB / dt = μ0 n di / dt

The rate of change in magnetic flux linked with the solenoid =

Area  of coil x dB/dt

= 3.14 x 8 x 8 x 10^-4 x μ0 n di / dt

= 3.14 x 64 x 10^-4 x 4 x 3.14 x 10^-7 x 1700 x 5 = 2.145 x 10^-4

The induced emf is given by the rate of change in magnetic flux linked with the coil.

e = 2.145 x 10^-4 V

i = e / R = 2.145 x 10^-4 / 4 = 5.36 x 10^-5 A = 53.63 μA
