The ptolemaic model of the universe describes the earth as

a. at the center, but moving relative to the other planets
b. at the center, stationary, with planets that rotate around it
c. orbiting around the sun with the other planets of our solar system
d. orbiting the moon, following the path of the sun

Part f - example: finding two forces (part i) two dimensional dynamics often involves solving for two unknown quantities in two separate equations describing the total force. the block in (figure 1) has a mass m=10kg and is being pulled by a force f on a table with coefficient of static friction îľs=0.3. four forces act on it: the applied force f (directed î¸=30â above the horizontal). the force of gravity fg=mg (directly down, where g=9.8m/s2). the normal force n (directly up). the force of static friction fs (directly left, opposing any potential motion). if we want to find the size of the force necessary to just barely overcome static friction (in which case fs=îľsn), we use the condition that the sum of the forces in both directions must be 0. using some basic trigonometry, we can write this condition out for the forces in both the horizontal and vertical directions, respectively, as: fcosî¸â’îľsn=0 fsinî¸+nâ’mg=0 in order to find the magnitude of force f, we have to solve a system of two equations with both f and the normal force n unknown. use the methods we have learned to find an expression for f in terms of m, g, î¸, and îľs (no n).

Athin plate moves between two parallel, horizontal, stationary flat surfaces at a constant velocity of v = 7.5 m/s. the two stationary surfaces are spaced 4 cm apart, and the medium between them is filled with oil whose viscosity is 0.9 n·s/m2. the part of the plate immersed in oil at any given time is 2 m long and 0.5 m wide. if the plate moves through the mid-plane between the surfaces, determine the force required to maintain this motion. what would your response be if the plate was 1 cm from the bottom surface (h2) and 3 cm from the top surface (h1)? if the plate moves through the mid-plane between the surfaces, the force required to maintain the motion will be n. if the plate was 1 cm from the bottom surface (h2) and 3 cm from the top (h1) surface, the force required to maintain the motion would be n.

Your starship, the aimless wanderer, lands on the mysterious planet mongo. as chief scientist-engineer, you make the following measurements: a 2.50-kg stone thrown upward from the ground at 14.0 m/s returns to the ground in 5.70 s ; the circumference of mongo at the equator is 2.20×10^5 km ; and there is no appreciable atmosphere on mongo. (a) the starship commander, captain confusion, asks for the following information: what is the mass of mongo? (b) if the aimless wanderer goes into a circular orbit 2.20×10^4 km above the surface of mongo, how many hours will it take the ship to complete one orbit? (c) an unmanned spacecraft is in a circular orbit around the moon, observing the lunar surface from an altitude of 44.0 km . to the dismay of scientists on earth, an electrical fault causes an on-board thruster to fire, decreasing the speed of the spacecraft by 23.0 m/s . if nothing is done to correct its orbit, with what speed (in km/h) will the spacecraft crash into the lunar surface?
