Astronauts brought back 500 lbs rock samples from the moon. They brought back 227 kilograms of sample.

An Astronaut is a person who has been educated, prepared, and put into space as part of a human spaceflight mission to serve as a commander or crew member. The word is frequently used to refer to scientists as well as professional space explorers, while being usually reserved for all of those who travel into space on a daily basis.

According to the given question, Astronaut bought back 550 lbs sample,

We know that,

2.20lbs = 1 kg.

1 lbs = 1/2.20 kg

1 lbs = 0.45 kg

Hence, 500 lbs equals 227kgs according to the given relation.

So, Astronauts brought back 227 kilograms of sample.

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

a) i = -9.63 cm , h ’= .0.24075 cm erect

b) i = 259.74 cm ,

Explanation:

For this exercise let's start by finding the focal length of the lens

1 / f = (n-1) (1 / R₁ - 1 / R₂)

1 / f = (1.70 -1)) 1 / ∞ - 1/13)

1 / f = 0.0538

f = - 18.57 cm

Now we can use the constructor equation

1 / f = 1 / o + 1 / i

1 / i = 1 / f - 1 / o

1 / i = -1 / 18.57 -1/20

1 / i = -0.1038 cm

I = -9.63 cm

For the height of the

image let's use magnification

m = h '/ h = - i / o

h ’= -h i / o

h ’= - 0.5 (-9.63) / 20

h ’= .0.24075 cm

b) we invert the lens

The focal length is

1 / f = (1.70 -1) (1/13 - 1 / int)

1 / f = 0.0538

f = 18.57 cm

1 / i = 1 / f -1 / o

1 / I = 1 / 18.57 - 1/20

1 / I = 3.85 10-3

i = 259.74 cm

h ’= - 0.5 259.74 / 20

h ’= 6.4935 cm

A 2 m tall, 0.5 m inside diameter tank is filled with water. A 10 cm hole is opened 0.75 m from the bottom of the tank. What is

valina [46]

Answer:

4.75 m/s

Explanation:

The computation of the velocity of the existing water is shown below:

Data provided in the question

Tall = 2 m

Inside diameter tank = 2m

Hole opened = 10 cm

Bottom of the tank = 0.75 m

Based on the above information, first we have to determine the height which is

= 2 - 0.75 - 0.10

= 2 - 0.85

= 1.15 m

We assume the following things

1. Compressible flow

2. Stream line followed

Now applied the Bernoulli equation to section 1 and 2

So we get

$\frac{P_1}{p_g} + \frac{v_1^2}{2g} + z_1 = \frac{P_2}{p_g} + \frac{v_2^2}{2g} + z_2$

where,

P_1 = P_2 = hydrostatic

z_1 = 0

z_2 = h

Now

$\frac{v_1^2}{2g} + 0 = \frac{v_2^2}{2g} + h\\\\V_2 < < V_1 or V_2 = 0\\\\Therefore\ \frac{v_1^2}{2g} = h\\\\v_1^2 = 2gh\\\\ v_1 = \sqrt{2gh} \\\\v_1 = \sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 1.15}$

= 4.7476 m/sec

= 4.75 m/s
