Answer:
Suppose the micrometeoroid weighed 1 g = .001 kg
Suppose also the spacecraft were moving at 18,000 mph (1.5 hrs per rev)
Usually, the smaller particle would be moving but for simplicity suppose that it were stationary wrt the ground
v = 18000 miles / hr * 1500 m/mile / 3600 sec/hr = 7500 m/s
KE = 1/2 * .001 kg * (7500 m)^2 = 28,125 Joules
One can see that 28000 Joules could be damaging amount of energy
A Car at the top of a hill.
It is because in that case, produce of mass and height is highest which is directly proportional to potential energy
In short, Your Answer would be Option A
Hope this helps!
Answer:
-4×-2y=14 (1)
-10×+7y=-25 (2)
multiplying eq 1 by 7 and eq 2 by 2 and add eq. 1 and 2
-28×-14y=98
-20×+14y=-50
___________
-28×=48
×=48/-28
×=-12/7
now
-4×-2y=14
-4*-12/7-2y=14
48/7-2y=14
-2y=14-48/7
-2y=(98-48)/7
-2y=50/7
y=-50/14
y=-25/7
Yes, his velocity will decrease the further he slides.
