Answer:

3×10^7 m/s or 0.10c (e)

Explanation: If the actual value of the speed of light were to be put into consideration.

Given that the speed of light is c = 3.0×10^8m/s

The alien spaceship is approaching at the rate of 10% of the speed of light.

10% of 3.0×10^8m/s

10/100 × 3.0×10^8m/s

0.1 ×3.0×10^8m/s

3×10^7 m/s. Which is the same thing as 0.1 of c = 0.1×c

It requires 0.30 kJ of work to fully drive a stake into the ground. If the average resistive force on the stake by the ground is
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

Length of the stake will be 0.3623 m

Explanation:

We have given energy required to fully drive a stake into ground = 0.30 KJ = 300 J

Average resistive force acting on the floor is equal to F = 828 N

We have to find the length of the stake

We know that work done is given by

W = Fd, here W is work done , F is average force and d is the length of the stake

So 300 = 828×d

d = 0.3623 m

So length of the stake will be 0.3623 m

A skateboarder rides swiftly up the edge of a bowl-shaped surface and leaps into the air. While in the air, the skateboarder fli
Katen [24]

Answer:

Option(a) is the correct answer to the given question .

Explanation:

The main objective of the angular momentum is evaluating however much the rotational movement as well as the angular velocity in the entity does have.The angular momentum is measured in terms of kgm^{2 }\  / s.

  • In the given question the skateboarder rides quickly up the bottom of a bowl-shaped surface and climb into the air.it means it is rotational movement also it is not touching anything so it is angular momentum.
  • All the other option is incorrect because it is not follows the given scenario

If Pete ( mass=90.0kg) weights himself and finds that he weighs 30.0 pounds, how far away from the surface of the earth is he
shutvik [7]

Answer: 9938.8 km

Explanation:

1 pound-force = 4.48 N

30.0 pounds-force = 134.4 N

The force of gravitation between Earth and object on the surface of is given by:

F = \frac{GMm}{R^2} = mg

Where M is the mass of the Earth, m is the mass of the object, R (6371 km) is the radius of the Earth.

At height, h above the surface of the Earth, the weight of the object:

(mg)'= \frac{GMm}{(R+h)^2}

we need to find "h"

taking the ratio of two:

\frac{mg}{(mg)'}=\frac{(R+h)^2}{R^2}\\ \Rightarrow \frac{90kg \times 9.8 m/s^2}{134.4 N}=\frac{(R+h)^2}{R^2}\\ \Rightarrow 6.56 R^2= (R+h)^2 \Rightarrow h= (2.56-1)R\\ \Rightarrow h = 1.56 R = 1.56 \times 6371 km = 9938. 8 km

Hence, Pete would weigh 30 pounds at 9938.8 km above the surface of the Earth.

3. In 1989, Michel Menin of France walked on a tightrope suspended under a
Tamiku [17]

Answer: 80m

Explanation:

Distance of balloon to the ground is 3150m

Let the distance of Menin's pocket to the ground be x

Let the distance between Menin's pocket to the balloon be y

Hence, x=3150-y------1

Using the equation of motion,

V^2= U^s + 2gs--------2

U= initial speed is 0m/s

g is replaced with a since the acceleration is under gravity (g) and not straight line (a), hence g is taken as 10m/s

40m/s is contant since U (the coin is at rest is 0) hence V =40m/s

Slotting our values into equation 2

40^2= 0^2 + 2 * 10* (3150-y)

1600 = 0 + 63000 - 20y

1600 - 63000 = - 20y

-61400 = - 20y minus cancel out minus on both sides of the equation

61400 = 20y

Hence y = 61400/20

3070m

Hence, recall equation 1

x = 3150 - 3070

80m

I hope this solve the problem.
