A shuttle on Earth has a mass of 4.5 E 5 kg. Compare its weight on Earth to its weight while in orbit at a height of 6.3 E 5 met
ValentinkaMS [3465]

Response:

83%

Clarification:

At the surface, the weight can be expressed as:

W = GMm / R²

where G denotes the gravitational constant, M represents the Earth's mass, m signifies the shuttle's mass, and R is the Earth's radius.

When in orbit, the weight is given by:

w = GMm / (R+h)²

where h indicates the shuttle's altitude above Earth's surface.

The weight ratio is as follows:

w/W = R² / (R+h)²

w/W = (R / (R+h))²

For R = 6.4×10⁶ m and h = 6.3×10⁵ m:

w/W = (6.4×10⁶ / 7.03×10⁶)²

w/W = 0.83

Thus, the shuttle maintains 83% of its weight as it orbits.

1)After catching the ball, Sarah throws it back to Julie. However, Sarah throws it too hard so it is over Julie's head when it r
Softa [3030]

Answer:

1)

v_{oy}=11.29\ m/s

2)

y=7.39\ m

Explanation:

Projectile Motion

When an object is projected near the surface of the Earth at an angle \theta to the horizontal, it follows a trajectory known as a parabola. The only force acting on it (ignoring wind resistance) is gravity, affecting the vertical axis.

The height of a projectile can be calculated using

\displaystyle y=y_o+V_{oy}t-\frac{gt^2}{2}

where y_o represents the initial height from ground level, v_{oy} is the vertical component of the initial velocity, and t is the elapsed time.

The vertical speed component is expressed as

v_y=v_{oy}-gt

1) To proceed, we will determine the initial vertical velocity component since we lack sufficient data to calculate the absolute value of v_o.

The peak height is attained when v_y=0, which allows us to compute the time to reach that height.

v_{oy}-gt_m=0

Solving for t_m

\displaystyle t_m=\frac{v_{oy}}{g}

Thus, the maximum height reached is

\displaystyle y_m=y_o+\frac{v_{oy}^2}{2g}

We know this value is equal to 8 meters

\displaystyle y_o+\frac{v_{oy}^2}{2g}=8

Continuing with the calculations for v_{oy}

\displaystyle v_{oy}=\sqrt{2g(8-y_o)}

Substituting known values yields

\displaystyle v_{oy}=\sqrt{2(9.8)(8-1.5)}

\displaystyle v_{oy}=11.29\ m/s

2) At t=1.505 seconds, the ball is positioned above Julie’s head; we can calculate

\displaystyle y=y_o+V_{oy}t-\frac{gt^2}{2}

\displaystyle y=1.5+(11.29)(1.505)-\frac{9.8(1.505)^2}{2}

\displaystyle y=1.5\ m+16,991\ m-11.098\ m

y=7.39\ m

What is the sources of error and suggestion on how to overcome it in the hooke's law experiment?
Yuliya22 [3333]
In the study of physics, Hooke's law can be expressed as:

F = kx

This law indicates that the spring force F is proportional to the extension x, with k being the spring constant.

In experiments, this is often examined using the setup illustrated in the included figure. The spring is tested, and a known weight is applied underneath it. This weight exerts a gravitational pull, essentially its weight, on the spring. While the spring elongates, the displacement can be measured using a ruler.

Several potential errors can arise during this experiment. Firstly, the person's measurement reading may be faulty. Digital scales offer greater accuracy as they reduce human error, while ruler readings can be subjective, especially if not viewed at eye level. Additionally, the object's weight may be inaccurately measured if the scale is untrustworthy. Lastly, the measuring equipment may not be correctly calibrated.

A 10-turn conducting loop with a radius of 3.0 cm spins at 60 revolutions per second in a magnetic field of 0.50T. The maximum e
kicyunya [3294]

Answer:

Maximum emf = 5.32 V

Explanation:

Provided data includes:

Number of turns, N = 10

Radius of loop, r = 3 cm = 0.03 m

It made 60 revolutions each second

Magnetic field, B = 0.5 T

We are tasked to determine the maximum emf produced in the loop, which is founded on Faraday's law. The induced emf can be calculated by:

\epsilon=\dfrac{d(NBA\cos\theta)}{dt}\\\\\epsilon=NBA\dfrac{d(\cos\theta)}{dt}\\\\\epsilon=NBA\omega \sin\omega t\\\\\epsilon=NB\pi r^2\omega \sin\omega t

For the maximum emf, \sin\omega t=1

Therefore,

\epsilon=NB\pi r^2\omega \\\\\epsilon=NB\pi r^2\times 2\pi f\\\\\epsilon=10\times 0.5\times \pi (0.03)^2\times 2\pi \times 60\\\\\epsilon=5.32\ V

Hence, the maximum emf generated in the loop is 5.32 V.
