Answer:

\Delta KE = 4.20\times 10^{13}\ J

Explanation:

given,

mass of spaceship(m) = 8600 Kg

Mass of earth = 5.972 x 10²⁴ Kg

position of movement of space ship

R₁ = 7300 Km

R₂ = 6700 Km

the kinetic energy of the spaceship increases by = ?

Increase in Kinetic energy = decrease in potential energy

    \Delta KE = GMm (\dfrac{1}{R_2}-\dfrac{1}{R_1})

    \Delta KE = GMm (\dfrac{R_1-R_2}{R_2R_1})

    \Delta KE = 6.67 \times 10^{-11}\times 5.972 \times 10^{24}\times 8600 (\dfrac{7300 - 6700}{7300 \times 6700})

    \Delta KE = 6.67 \times 10^{-11}\times 5.972 \times 10^{24}\times 8600 (\dfrac{600}{48910000})

    \Delta KE = 4.20\times 10^{13}\ J

A toy rocket launcher can project a toy rocket at a speed as high as 35.0 m/s.
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

(a) 62.5 m

(b) 7.14 s

Explanation:

initial speed, u = 35 m/s

g = 9.8 m/s^2

(a) Let the rocket raises upto height h and at maximum height the speed is zero.

Use third equation of motion

v^{2}=u^{2}+2as

0^{2}=35^{2}- 2 \times 9.8 \times h

h = 62.5 m

Thus, the rocket goes upto a height of 62.5 m.

(b) Let the rocket takes time t to reach to maximum height.

By use of first equation of motion

v = u + at

0 = 35 - 9.8 t

t = 3.57 s

The total time spent by the rocket in air = 2 t = 2 x 3.57 = 7.14 second.

A pickup truck starts from rest and maintains a constant acceleration a0. After a time t0, the truck is moving with speed 25 m/s
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

the correct answer is c     v₁> 12.5 m / s

Explanation:

This is a one-dimensional kinematics exercise, let's start by finding the link to get up to speed.

            v² = v₀² + 2 a₁ x

as part of rest v₀ = 0

           a₁ = v² / 2x

           a₁ = 25² / (2 120)

           a₁ = 2.6 m / s²

now we can find the velocity for the distance x₂ = 60 m

           v₁² = 0 + 2 a1 x₂

           v₁ = Ra (2 2,6 60)

           v₁ = 17.7 m / s

these the speed at 60 m

we see that the correct answer is c     v₁> 12.5 m / s

Una cuerda de violin vibra con una frecuencia fundamental de 435 Hz. Cual sera su frecuencia de vibracion si se le somete a una
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

a)  f = 615.2 Hz      b)  f = 307.6 Hz

Explanation:

The speed in a wave on a string is

         v = √ T / μ

also the speed a wave must meet the relationship

          v = λ f

           

Let's use these expressions in our problem, for the initial conditions

            v = √ T₀ /μ

             √ (T₀/ μ) = λ₀ f₀

now it indicates that the tension is doubled

         T = 2T₀

          √ (T /μ) = λ f

          √( 2To /μ) = λ f

         √2  √ T₀ /μ = λ f

we substitute

         √2 (λ₀ f₀) = λ f

if we suppose that in both cases the string is in the same fundamental harmonic, this means that the wavelength only depends on the length of the string, which does not change

           λ₀ = λ

           f = f₀ √2

           f = 435 √ 2

           f = 615.2 Hz

b) The tension is cut in half

         T = T₀ / 2

         √ (T₀ / 2muy) =  f = λ f

          √ (T₀ / μ)  1 /√2 = λ f

           fo / √2 = f

           f = 435 / √2

           f = 307.6 Hz

Traslate

La velocidad en una onda en una cuerda es

         v = √ T/μ

ademas la velocidad una onda debe cumplir la relación

          v= λ f  

           

Usemos estas expresión en nuestro problema, para las condiciones iniciales

            v= √ To/μ

             √ ( T₀/μ) = λ₀ f₀

ahora nos indica que la tensión se duplica

         T = 2T₀

          √ ( T/μ) = λf

          √ ) 2T₀/μ = λ f

         √ 2 √ T₀/μ = λ f

         

substituimos  

         √2    ( λ₀ f₀)  =  λ f

si suponemos que en los dos caso la cuerda este en el mismo armónico fundamental, esto es que la longitud de onda unicamente depende de la longitud de la cuerda, la cual no cambia

                 λ₀ =  λ

           f = f₀ √2

           f = 435 √2

           f = 615,2 Hz

b)  La tension se reduce a la mitad

         T = T₀/2    

         RA ( T₀/2μ)  =  λ  f

          Ra(T₀/μ) 1/ra 2  =  λ f

           fo /√ 2 = f

           f = 435/√2

           f = 307,6 Hz

An underground tunnel has two openings, with one opening a few meters higher than the other. If air moves past the higher openin
klasskru [66]

Answer:

There would be a pressure drop in the direction of the higher opening. This will force air to move in from the lower opening and force it to leave through the higher opening. This will create a convectional movement of air, cooling and ventilating the tunnel.

Explanation:

This is in accordance with bernoulli's law of fluid flow which states that the pressure exerted by a moving fluid is lesser than it would exert if it were at rest.
