A meteoroid, heading straight for Earth, has a speed of 14.8 km/s relative to the center of Earth as it crosses our moon's orbit

, a distance of 3.84 × 108 m from the earth's center. What is the meteroid’s speed as it hits the earth? You can neglect the effects of the moon, Earth’s atmosphere, and any motion of the earth. (G = 6.67 × 10 -11 N ∙ m2/kg2, Mearth = 5.97 × 1024 kg)

Answer:

v = 112.424 km / s

Explanation:

Given:

d = 3.84 x 10 ⁸ m  , R = 63 x 10³ m  , m earth = 5.97 x 10²⁴ kg  ,  G = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N * m² / kg² , v₁ = 14.8 x 10 ³ m / s

Using the equation

KE + PE = initial KE + PE

¹/₂ * m * v₂² - G * m/ R = ¹/₂ * m * v₁² - G * m/(R+d)

v₂² = v₁² + 2*G * m [ 1/R - 1/(R+d) ]

v₂² = 14.8 x 10 ³ m /s + 2 * 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N * m² / kg² * 5.97 x 10²⁴ kg  [ 1 / 63 x 10³m - 1 / ( 63 x  10³ + 3.84 x 10⁸ m ) ]

v = √ 1.26 x 10¹⁰ m² / s²

v =  112.424 x 10³ m/s  

v = 112.424 km / s

Ahat [919]

Answer:

|v| = 8.7 cm/s

Explanation:

given:

mass m = 4 kg

spring constant k = 1 N/cm = 100 N/m

at time t = 0:

amplitude A = 0.02m

unknown: velocity v at position y = 0.01 m

y = A cos(\omega t + \phi)\\v = -\omega A sin(\omega t + \phi)\\ \omega = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

1. Finding Ф from the initial conditions:

-0.02 = 0.02cos(0 + \phi) => \phi = \pi

2. Finding time t at position y = 1 cm:

0.01 =0.02cos(\omega t + \pi)\\ \frac{1}{2}=cos(\omega t + \pi)\\t=(acos(\frac{1}{2})-\pi)\frac{1}{\omega}

3. Find velocity v at time t from equation 2:

v =-0.02\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}sin(acos(\frac{1}{2}))

Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

Answer:

1.1 x 10^9 ohm metre

Explanation:

diameter = 1.5 mm

length, l = 5 cm

Potential difference, V = 9 V

current, i = 230 micro Ampere = 230 x 10^-6 A

radius, r = diameter / 2 = 1.5 / 2 = 0.75 x 10^-3 m

Let the resistivity is ρ.

Area of crossection

A = πr² = 3.14 x 0.75 x 0.75 x 10^-6 = 1.766 x 10^-6 m^2

Use Ohm's law to find the value of resistance

V =  i x R

9 = 230 x 10^-6 x R

R = 39130.4 ohm

Use the formula for the resistance

R=\rho \frac{l}{A}

\rho =\frac{RA}{l}

\rho =\frac{39130.4\times 0.05}{1.766\times 10^{-6}}

ρ = 1.1 x 10^9 ohm metre

zheka24 [161]
A. An object in motion will remain in motion unless acted upon by an outside force : The momentum of an object is constant unless an outside force acts on the object.

B. Force is defined as mass times acceleration : the rate of change of the momentum of a particle is proportional to the force F acting on it, hence the force is equal to <span>mass times acceleration.

C. </span>For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction : <span>to every action force there is an equal and opposite reaction force. </span>

If a scale on Earth reads 650 N, what is your mass?
OlgaM077 [116]
If the scale reads 650N, then the mass of whoever it is standing on the scale is

         (weight) / (gravity)  =  (650N) / (9.8 m/s²)  =  66.3 kilograms  .

It's not MY mass, even if I'm the one standing on the scale. 
If I stand on a scale and it reads 650 N, the scale is broken.
