Io, a satellite of Jupiter, is the most volcanically active moon or planet in the solar system. It has volcanoes that send plume

s of matter over 500 km high. Due to the satellite's small mass, the acceleration due to gravity on Io is only 1.81 m/s2, and Io has no appreciable atmosphere. Assume that there is no variation in gravity over the distance traveled. Part A What must be the speed of material just as it leaves the volcano to reach an altitude of 490 km

Answer:

1.33 km/s

Explanation:

acceleration due to gravity, g = 1.81 m/s²

height, h = 490 km = 490000 m

Let u is the initial speed and the final speed is zero.

use third equation of motion

v² = u² - 2 g h

0 = u² - 2 x 1.81 x 490000

u² = 1773800

u = 1331.84 m/s

u = 1.33 km/s

Thus, the initial speed of the material is 1.33 km/s.

Answer:

1331.84 m/s

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity = 0

s = Displacement = 490 km

a = Acceleration

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 1.81 m/s² = a

From equation of linear motion

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow -u^2=2as-v^2\\\Rightarrow u=\sqrt{v^2-2as}\\\Rightarrow u=\sqrt{0^2-2\times -1.81\times 490000}\\\Rightarrow u=1331.84\ m/s

The speed of the material must be 1331.84 m/s in order to reach the height of 490 km

In the lab setup above, block 1 is being pulled across a smooth surface by a light string connected across a pulley to a falling
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

As block 1 moves from point A to point B, the work done by gravity on block 2 is equal to the change in the kinetic energy of the two-block system.

Explanation:

As block 2 goes down , work is done by gravity on block 2 . This is converted

into kinetic energy of block 1 and block 2 . Work done by gravity is mgh which can be measured easily . kinetic energy of both the blocks can also be measured.

A front wheel drive car starts from rest and accelerates to the right. Knowing that the tires do not slip on the road, what is t
Korolek [52]

Answer:

static friction acting opposite to the direction of travel

Explanation:

Because the Frictional force of the front wheels act to oppose the spinning, so, For the front wheels to roll without slipping, the friction must be static friction pointing in the direction of travel of the car.

If a current of 2.4 a is flowing in a cylindrical wire of diameter 2.0 mm, what is the average current density in this wire?
Gnom [1K]

The average current density in the wire is given by:

J=\frac{I}{A}

where I is the current intensity and A is the cross-sectional area of the wire.


The cross-sectional area of the wire is given by:

A=\pi r^2

where r is the radius of the wire. In this problem, r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{2.0 mm}{2}=1.0 mm=0.001 m, so the cross-sectional area is

A=\pi (0.001 m)^2=3.14 \cdot 10^{-6} m^2


and the average current density is

J=\frac{I}{A}=\frac{2.4 A}{3.14 \cdot 10^{-6} m^2}=7.64 \cdot 10^5 A/m^2

A 4.0-mF capacitor initially charged to 50 V and a 6.0-mF capacitor charged to 30 V are connected to each other with the positiv
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

<em>The final charge on the 6.0 mF capacitor would be 12 mC</em>

Explanation:

The initial charge on 4 mF capacitor  = 4 mf  x 50 V = 200 mC

The initial Charge on 6 mF capacitor  = 6 mf x 30 V =180 mC

Since the negative ends are joined together  the total charge on both capacity would be;

q = q_{1} -q_{2}

q = 200 - 180

q = 20 mC

In order to find the final charge on the 6.0 mF capacitor we have to find the combined voltage

q = (4 x V) + (6 x V)

20 = 10 V

V = 2 V

For the final charge on 6.0 mF;

q = CV

q = 6.0 mF x 2 V

q =  12 mC

Therefore the final charge on the 6.0 mF capacitor would be 12 mC
