why don't scale models show the real distance between planets

Answers

Answer 1
If both distance and size are proportional to that in the solar system, the model would be essentially useless. For example, if the sun were represented by a marble 1 cm in diameter, the planet Neptune would be represented by a grain of sand. 3 mm in diameter about 32.3 meters (106 ft) away. The largest planet, Jupiter, would be a larger sand grain, 1 mm in diameter, about 5.6 meters from the sun. Earth would be less than 0.1 mm in diameter, about 1 meter away from the sun. Such a model would barely fit into a gymnasium (basketball court), and the elements of it would be very difficult to find without a map.

The net force on the propeller of a 3.2 kg model airplane is 7.0N forward. What is the acceleration of the airplane? If it starts from rest, what is the velocity of the plane after 2.5 seconds?

Answers

Answers:

Acceleration = 2.1875 m/s^2

Velocity after 2.5 seconds = 5.46875 m/s

=======================================================

Work Shown:

Part 1

The mass is m = 3.2 and the force is F = 7.0

Apply the formula F = ma to find the acceleration to be...

F = ma

7.0 = 3.2*a

7.0/3.2 = a

2.1875 = a

a = 2.1875

The acceleration is 2.1875 m/s^2

Every second, the velocity of the plane is increasing by 2.1875 m/s.

----------------------

Part 2

We have the following variables

vi = initial velocity = 0 m/s (since it starts from rest)vf = unknown final velocity (what we're trying to figure out)t = change in time = 2.5 secondsa = acceleration = 2.1875 m/s^2

Using one of the kinematics equations, we can then say,

vf = vi + a*t

vf = 0 + 2.1875*2.5

vf = 5.46875

After 2.5 seconds, the airplane is traveling 5.46875 m/s.

5.46875 m/s converts to roughly 12.2332 mph.

Question 1: Bicycle pump

In this problem, you will look at the pressure developed by the piston in a

bicycle pump

Air at atmospheric pressure (1.0 x 105 Pa) is compressed at constant

temperature in a bicycle pump so that its volume is reduced by a factor of

5.

What is the pressure of the air when compressed?

Answers

Answer: The pressure  of the air when compressed is [tex]5.0\times 10^5Pa[/tex]

Explanation:

Boyle's Law: This law states that pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.

[tex]P\propto \frac{1}{V}[/tex]     (At constant temperature and number of moles)

[tex]P_1V_1=P_2V_2[/tex]  

where,

[tex]P_1[/tex] = initial pressure of gas  = [tex]1.0\times 10^5Pa[/tex]

[tex]P_2[/tex] = final pressure of gas  =?

[tex]V_1[/tex] = initial volume of gas  = V

[tex]V_2[/tex] = final volume of gas  = [tex]\frac{V}{5}[/tex]

[tex]1.0\times 10^5\times V=P_2\times \frac{V}{5}[/tex]  

[tex]P_2=5.0\times 10^5Pa[/tex]

Therefore, the pressure  of the air when compressed is [tex]5.0\times 10^5Pa[/tex]

3. A soccer player applies an average force of 180 N during a kick. The kick accelerates a .45 kg soccer ball from rest to a speed of 18 m/s. What is the impulse imparted to the ball

Answers

Answer:

8.1Ns

Explanation:

Impulse is expressed as the product of Force and time

Impulse = Ft

F is the force = 180N

Get the time using the equation of motion

v = u+at

18 = 0+F/m(t)

18 = 180/0.45(t)

18 = 400t

t = 18/400 secs

Recall that;

Impulse = Ft

Impulse = 180×18/400

Impulse = 8.1Ns

Hence the impulse imparted to the ball is 8.1Ns

Answers

Answer:

F = 2220 N

Explanation:

There exists a fixed relationship, that resembles Newton's  2nd Law (applied to rigid bodies) between an external net torque (τ), the rotational inertia (I) of the body, and the angular acceleration (α) due to the torque, as follows:

       [tex]\tau = I * \alpha (1)[/tex]

By definition, the magnitude of the torque is given by the following expression:τ = F* r* sinθ (2)where F is the applied force, r is the distance to the center of  rotation, and θ is the angle between the force and the position vector from the center of rotation to the line of action of the force.In this case, as the force is tangential to the edge, both vectors are perpendicular each other, so (2) becomes simply as follows:τ = F*r (3)Replacing in (1), we have:F*r = I*α (4)I is the total rotational inertia, that is composed by two terms, one is the rotational inertia of the disk, Idisk, which is given by the following expression:

       [tex]I_{disk} = m*\frac{r^{2} }{2} (5)[/tex]

The other component of I, is due to the four children.Assuming that we can treat them as point masses, the rotational inertia due to any of them is as follows:

       [tex]I_{child} = m_{child} * r^{2} (6)[/tex]

So, the rotational inertia will be (5) plus (6) times 4 (due to there are 4 children at the same distance r from the center of rotation), as follows:

       [tex]I_{t} = I_{disk} + 4* I_{child} (7)[/tex]

Replacing by the givens, we get:

       [tex]I_{t} = \frac{500kg*(2.00m)^{2}}{2} + (4* 27 kg* (2.00m)^{2}) = 1432 kg*m2 (8)[/tex]

Replacing by the values of I, r and α in (4), and solving for F, we get:

       [tex]F = \frac{I*\alpha }{r} = \frac{1432kg*m2*3.1 rad/sec2}{2.00m} = 2220 N (9)[/tex]

The period T of a pendulum of length L is measured to determine g at the surface of Earth. The equation used is T=2π√L/g. The mass of the pendulum bob is 10.0 kg, and the length of the pendulum is 1.00 m. Which of the following would contribute most to the expected error in the result?

a. 10% uncertainty in the measurement of the mass.
b. Approximating the value of t as 3.14.
c. Variation in the value of g as the pendulum bob moves along its arc.
d. Using the average period of 10 timed oscillations instead of the period of 1 timed oscillation.
d. Starting the pendulum swinging by releasing it from a horizontal position D. E.

Answers

Answer:

C: Variation in the value of g as the pendulum bob moves along its arc.

Explanation:

The formula for period of a simple pendulum is given by;

T = 2π√(L/g)

Where;

L is length

g is acceleration due to gravity

Now, from this period equation, it is clear that the only thing that can affect the period of a simple pendulum are changes to its length and acceleration due to gravity.

Looking at the options, the only one that talks about either the length or gravity as being potential causes of the error is option C

of 140 N in the opposite direction. If the ring does not
move, what force does Helen exert if she pulls in the same
direction as Jo?​

Answers

Answer:

Helen's force must be of 40 N in the same direction as Jo.

Explanation:

Net Force

When a number of forces are applied to an object, the net force is the sum of all the forces considered as vectors.

When all forces act on a straight line, only two possible directions are considered and they can be arbitrarily assigned positive and negative signs.

Jo pulls with a force of 100 N in a direction considered as positive (for example). Daniel applies a force of 140 N in the opposite direction, obviously negative. The net force of these two forces is 100 N - 140 N = - 40 N.

This means there is a resultant non-zero force in the direction of Daniel's. If we are told the net force is zero because of Helen's force, it must be applied in the same direction as Jo's force to balance.

Helen's force must be of 40 N in the same direction as Jo.

Suppose a forklift hoists a container weighing 2670 Netwons up from
ground level, setting it down on aloading dock 4.5 meters above ground
level. How much work was done by the forklift in this maneuver?

Answers

Answer:

What is Bohr's model of an atom?

Neil Bohr put forth the Bohr model of the atom in 1915. It was created by the modification of Rutherford's atomic model.

By explaining that electrons move in fixed orbitals (shells) and not anywhere in between, Bohr theory amended the atomic structure model. He also showed that each orbit (shell) has a fixed energy. Bohr refined Rutherford's model of the atom's nucleus to include electrons and their varying energy levels.

In Bohr's theory, there is a tiny, positively charged nucleus that is surrounded by negatively charged electrons that orbit the nucleus. According to Bohr, an electron that is farther from the nucleus has more energy than one that is closer to it.

Answers

Answer:

C. C

Explanation:

The ball will have its greatest kinetic energy just before it touches the ground which is at point C.

Kinetic energy of a body is the energy due to the motion of the body. As a body moves and its speed increases as a result of acceleration, then the kinetic energy will increase more.

As the body starts from rest, at point A, through B and C, the velocity increases drastically due the pull of the earth.

So, point C will show the greatest velocity and hence the most kinetic energy by the body.

If the column of mercury in a barometer stands at 72.6 cm, what is the atmospheric pressure?
(The density of mercury is 13.6 X 103 kg/m3 and g = 9.80 m/s2)​

Answers

Answer:pressure = density * acceleration due to gravity * height

H=72.6cm= 0.726m

P=0.726*13.6*10^3*9.8

P=96761.28Pa

Explanation:

The atmospheric pressure if the column of mercury in a barometer stands at 72.6 cm is 9.68 × 10⁴ Pa.

What is Pressure?

The stress at a location within a confined fluid or the perpendicular force per unit area are the two definitions of pressure used in the physical sciences. A 42-pound box with an area of 84 square inches at the bottom will apply pressure on a surface equal to the force divided by the surface area.

Given:

The height in the barometer, h = 72.6 cm or 0.726 m,

The density of mercury, d =  13.6 × 10³ kg/m³,

The gravitational acceleration, g = 9.80 m/s²,

Calculate the atmospheric pressure by the following formula,

P = dgh

Here, P is the atmospheric pressure

Substitute the values,

P =  13.6 × 10³ × 9.80 × 0.726

P = 9.68 × 10⁴ Pa,

Therefore, the atmospheric pressure if the column of mercury in a barometer stands at 72.6 cm is 9.68 ×10⁴ Pa.
