Mars, which has a radius of 3.4 × 106 m and a mass of 6.4 × 1023 kg, orbits the Sun, which has a mass of 2.0 × 1030 kg at a dist

ance of 2.3 × 1011 m. Which is greater, the tangential speed of Mars’s rotation or revolution?

The correct answer is: Revolution (The tangential speed of Mars' revolution is greater than that of Mars' rotation).

Explanation:

Given data:

Radius-of-Mars = r = $3.4 * 10^6$ m

Distance-between-Sun-and-Mars = d = $2.3 * 10^{11}$ m

Now let us first calculate the Mars' rotation:

One complete rotation of Mars = 2πr = 2π( $3.4*10^6$ ) = $21.36 * 10^6$ m

Tangential speed of Mars' rotation (by taking 24hours 37 minutes in seconds (88620s)—as Mars takes that many seconds to complete one rotation) = $\frac{21.36 * 10^6m}{88620} = 241.02 \frac{m}{s}$

Now let's calculate the Mars' revolution (around Sun):

One complete revolution of Mars around Sun = 2πd = 2π( $2.3 * 10^{11}$ ) = $1.45 * 10^{12}$ m

Tangential speed of Mars' revolution (by taking 687 days in seconds (59356800s)—since Mars takes 687days to complete one revolution)= $\frac{1.45 * 10^{12}m}{59356800s} = 24.42 * 10^{3}\frac{m}{s}$

So we can see that the tagential speed of:

Revolution > Rotation

$24.42 * 10^{3}\frac{m}{s}$ > $241.02\frac{m}{s}$

Hence, the correct answer is Revolution.

A mass of 0.40 kg is suspended on a spring which then stretches 10 cm. The mass is then removed and a second mass is placed on t

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

x' = 1.01 m

Explanation:

given,

mass suspended on the spring, m = 0.40 Kg

stretches to distance, x = 10 cm = 0. 1 m

now,

we know

m g = k x

where k is spring constant

0.4 x 9.8 = k x 0.1

k = 39.2 N/m

now, when second mass is attached to the spring work is equal to 20 J

work done by the spring is equal to

$W = \dfrac{1}{2}kx'^2$

$20= \dfrac{1}{2}\times 39.2\times x'^2$

x'² = 1.0204

x' = 1.01 m

hence, the spring is stretched to 1.01 m from the second mass.

A bucket that has a mass of 20 kg when filled with sand needs to be lifted to the top of a 15 meter tall building. You have a ro

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the top of the building,

W=67.46 Nm

Explanation:

in this question we have given

mass of bucket=20kg

mass of rope= $.2\frac{kg}{m}$

height of building= 15 meter

We have to find the work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the building =work done in lifting the rope + work done in lifting the sand

work done in lifting the rope is given as, $W_{1}=Force \times displacement$

= $\int\limits^{15}_0 {.2x} \, dx$ ..............(1)

= $.1\times 15^2$

=22.5 Nm

work done in lifting the sand is given as, $W_{2}=Force \times displacement$

$W_{2}=\int\limits^{15}_0 F \, dx$ .................(2)

Here,

F=mx+c

here,

c=20-18

c=2

m= $\frac{20-18}{15-0}$

m=.133

Therefore,

$F=.133x+2$

Put value of F in equation 2

$W_{2}=\int\limits^{15}_0 (.133x+2) \, dx$

$W_{2}=.133 \times 112.5+2\times15\\W_{2}=14.96+30\\W_{2}=44.96 Nm$

Therefore,

work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the top of the building, $W=W_{1}+W_{2}$

W=22.5 Nm+44.96 Nm

W=67.46 Nm

Sonia's grandfather was not able to see clearly after returning from his walk on a bright sunny day. He was about to hit a chair

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

Sonia's grandfather was not able to see clearly after returning from his walk on a bright sunny day. He was about to hit a chair when Sonia held him and guided him to the nearby sofa, in sunny environment grandfather's eye is set according to high brightness, his pupils become small to lower the number of light rays entering his eye, when he returned from sunny environment to his house which was having low brightness so the pupils should enlarge to absorb more light to see clearly but due to old age his Ciliary muscle of the eye would have worn out and due to this poor coordination the image was not clear.
