The force of gravity between Earth and Mars will decrease.

The gravitational law is given as-

           F = G mM/r²

  here,  m= mass of rocket

             M = mass of earth

             r = distance between earth and rocket

So, as rocket takes off from earth and fly towards mars then the distance starts to increase between earth and rocket, and the gravitational pull between them starts to weaken. Then a point will reach when rocket will far from gravity of earth and could probably enter the gravity of Mars.

Water is boiled at 300 kPa pressure in a pressure cooker. The cooker initially contains 3 kg of water. Once boiling started, it
Inessa [10]

Answer:

The average rate of energy transfer to the cooker is 1.80 kW.

Explanation:

Given that,

Pressure of boiled water = 300 kPa

Mass of water = 3 kg

Time = 30 min

Dryness friction of water = 0.5

Suppose, what is the average rate of energy transfer to the cooker?

We know that,

The specific enthalpy of evaporate at 300 kPa pressure

h_{f}=561.47\ kJ/kg

h_{fg}=2163.8\ kJ/kg

We need to calculate the enthalpy of water at initial state

h_{1}=h_{f}

h_{1}=561.47\ kJ/kg

We need to calculate the enthalpy of water at final state

Using formula of enthalpy

h_{2}=h_{f}+xh_{fg}

Put the value into the formula

h_{2}=561.47+0.5\times2163.8

h_{2}=1643.37\ kJ/kg

We need to calculate the rate of energy transfer to the cooker

Using formula of rate of energy

Q=\dfrac{m(h_{2}-h_{1})}{t}

Put the value into the formula

Q=\dfrac{3\times(1643.37-561.47)}{30\times60}

Q=1.80\ kW

Hence, The average rate of energy transfer to the cooker is 1.80 kW.

PLEASE HELP! 3 Questions, 10 points a question, will give brainliest.
Basile [38]

1) Mechanical energy is conserved in all the 4 situations

2) True

3) The potential energy of the block is 490 J

Explanation:

1)

Mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy (PE) and kinetic energy (KE) of a body:

E=PE+KE

According to the law of conservation of energy, in absence of non-conservative forces (such as air resistance, friction...), the mechanical energy of a body is always conserved.

This means that the mechanical energy is conserved in all the situations described. More specifically:

- Child on a swing : there is a continuous conversion between kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy

- Pendulum : there is a continuous conversion between kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy

Bow and Arrow : there is a conversion of energy from elastic potential (when the bow is stretched) to kinetic energy (when the arrow is shot)

Roller Coaster: there is a continuous conversion between kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy

2)

As we  said, the mechanical energy of the object falling down at any point of the fall is

E=KE+PE

where KE is the kinetic energy and PE is the potential energy. The value of E is constant, since the mechanical energy is conserved.

The potential energy is given by

PE=mgh

where m is the mass of the object, g is the acceleration of gravity, h is the height of the object above the ground.

As the object falls, its height h decreases, and therefore, the potential energy PE also decreases. But we said that E must remain constant: therefore, if PE decreases, this means that KE increases, therefore as the object falls, the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy (in fact, the  speed of the object increases). So the statement is true.

3)

The potential energy of an object is given by the equation

PE=mgh

where

m is the mass of the object

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

h is the height of the object relative to the ground

For the block in this problem, we have:

m = 10 kg

h = 5 m

Substituting, we find its potential energy:

PE=(10)(9.8)(5)=490 J

What total distance will a sound wave travel in air in 3.00 seconds at stp?
dimaraw [331]
At stp conditions (T=0^{\circ}C), the speed of sound is
v=331.2 m/s
The sound wave moves by uniform motion, so we can use the basic relationship between space, time and velocity:
S=vt
where S is the distance covered by the sound wave in a time t. In our problem, t=3.00 s, therefore the distance covered by the sound wave is
S=vt=(331.2 m/s)(3.00 s)=993.6 m

ryzh [129]

Answer: A.True

Explanation: simply put the magnitude of the speed is a function of Distance while the magnitude of velocity is a function of Displacement. Displacement is the average Distance moved in different directions which will be smaller in magnitude compared to the Total Distance used the calculating the magnitude of speed.
