Where does the potential energy of rocket goes when it escape from the influence of the earth

1 answer:

6 0

The potential energy of a rocket increases when its escapes from the influence of the earth. It increases when it escapes the earth's boundary.

<h3>What is escape speed?</h3>

Escape velocity or escape speed is the minimum speed required for a free, non-propelled object to escape from the gravitational pull of the main body and reach an infinite distance from it in celestial physics.

It is commonly expressed as an ideal speed, neglecting atmospheric friction.

If a spacecraft is launched from the moon at the escape speed of the earth then the value of escape speed will be the difference in both the velocities.

An object's height above the zero position directly relates to its gravitational potential energy.

The kinetic energy of motion is converted into gravitational potential power as your rocket ascends.

The rocket possesses gravitational potential energy as it climbs because it is becoming farther away from the Earth's surface, much as a positive and negative charge moving apart.

The potential energy of a rocket increases when its escapes from the influence of the earth. It increases when it escapes the earth's boundary.

Barack is playing basketball in his back yard. He takes a shot 7.0 m from the basket (measured along the ground), shooting at an

Answer:

The time of flight of the ball is 1.06 seconds.

Explanation:

Given $\Delta x=7\ m$

$\theta=45 \°$

Also, $\Delta y=(3.5-2)=1.5\ m$

$a_x=0\ and\ a_y=-9.81\ m/s^2$

Let us say the velocity in the x-direction is $v_x$ and in the y-direction is $v_y$ . And acceleration in the x-direction is $a_x$ and in the y-direction is $a_y$ .

Also, $\Delta x\ and\ \Delta y$ is distance covered in x and y direction respectively. And $t$ is the time taken by the ball to hit the backboard.

We can write $v_x=v_0cos(45)\ and\ v_y=v_0sin(45)$ . Where $v_0$ is velocity of ball.

Now,

$\Delta x=v_x\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times a_x\times t^2\\ \Delta x=v_x\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times 0\times t^2\\\Delta x=v_xt$

$\Delta x=v_0cos(45)\times t\\7=v_0cos(45)\times t\\\\t=\frac{7}{v_0cos(45)}$

Also,

$\Delta y=v_y\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times a_y\times t^2\\ 1.5=v_0sin(45)\times \frac{7}{v_0cos(45)}+\frac{1}{2}\times (-9.81)\times(\frac{7}{v_0cos(45)} )^2\\\\1.5=7-\frac{481}{(v_0)^2}\\ \\\frac{481}{(v_0)^2}=5.5\\\\(v_0)^2=\frac{481}{5.5}\\ \\(v_0)^2=87.45\\\\v_0=\sqrt{87.45}=9.35\ m/s$ .

Plugging this value in

$t=\frac{7}{v_0cos(45)}\\ \\t=\frac{7}{9.35\times 0.707}\\ \\t=\frac{7}{6.611}$

$t=1.06\ seconds$

So, the time of flight of the ball is 1.06 seconds.

Water ice has a density of 0.91 g/cm2, so it will float in liquid water. Imagine you have a cube of ice, 10 cm on a side. a. Wha

Reptile [31]

Answer:

(i) W = 8.918 N

(ii) $V = 9.1 \times 10^{-4} m^3$

(iii) d = 9.1 cm

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that weight of cube is given as

$W = mg$

$W = \rho V g$

here we know that

$\rho = 0.91 g/cm^3$

$Volume = L^3$

$Volume = 10^3 = 1000 cm^3$

now the mass of the ice cube is given as

$m = 0.91 \times 1000 = 910 g$

now weight is given as

$W = 0.910 \times 9.8 = 8.918 N$

Part b)

Weight of the liquid displaced must be equal to weight of the ice cube

Because as we know that force of buoyancy = weight of the of the liquid displaced

$W_{displaced} = 8.918 N$

So here volume displaced is given as

$\rho_{water}Vg = 8.918$

$1000(V)9.8 = 8.918$

$V = 9.1 \times 10^{-4} m^3$

Part c)

Let the cube is submerged by distance "d" inside water

So here displaced water weight is given as

$W = \rho_{water} (L^2 d) g$

$8.918 = 1000(0.10^2 \times d) 9.8$

$d = 0.091 m$

so it is submerged by d = 9.1 cm inside water

Which formula describes Newton’s second law of motion?

Allushta [10]

Newton's second law of motion pertains to the behavior of objects for which all existing forces are not balanced. The second law states that the acceleration of an object is dependent upon two variables - the net force acting upon the object and the mass of the object. The acceleration of an object depends directly upon the net force acting upon the object, and inversely upon the mass of the object. As the force acting upon an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is increased. As the mass of an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is decreased.
