The radial distance of the projectile reaches  reaches if its initial speed is 0.745 of the escape is (25/24) R.

Calculation:-

<em>The mass of the earth is M and </em><em>radius </em><em>of the earth is R.</em>

<em>The escape velocity ve = √(2GM/R)</em>

<em>Since the terminal veocity v0 = (1/5) ve  = (1/5) √(2GM/R)</em>

<em>(a) Let h be the height from the surface of the earth</em>

<em>From the law of </em><em>conservation </em><em>of </em><em>energy</em>

<em>(KE)1 = Change in </em><em>potential energy</em>

<em>(1/2) m (v0)2 = (GMm/R) - (GMm/(R+H)) </em>

<em>(1/2) m (1/25) (2GM/R) = (GMm/R) - (GMm/(R+H)) </em>

<em>(1/25R) = (1/R) - (1/(R+H))</em>

<em>1/25 = H / R+H</em>

<em>R+H = 25H</em>

<em>H = R/24</em>

<em>Now R+H = (25/24) R</em>

velocity can be the perception of the fee at which an object covers distance. A quick-transferring item has a excessive pace and covers a substantially large distance in a given amount of time, whilst a sluggish-transferring item covers a incredibly small quantity of distance in the identical quantity of time.

The primary unit or the S.I. unit of velocity is m/s or ms⁻¹.

Answer:

All soft drinks contain water. When soft drink bottles are chilled in sub-zero temperatures, the water on account of its anomalous expansion expands. Thus, to provide space for expanding water, soft drink bottles are not completely filled as otherwise they will burst.

A transverse wave on a long horizontal rope with a
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

2 seconds

Explanation:

The frequency of a wave is related to its wavelength and  speed by the equation

f=\frac{v}{\lambda}

where

f is the frequency

v is the speed of the wave

\lambda is the wavelength

For the wave in this problem,

v = 2 m/s

\lambda=8 m

So the frequency is

f=\frac{2}{8}=0.25 Hz

The period of a wave is equal to the reciprocal of the frequency, so for this wave:

T=\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{0.25}=4 s

This means that the wave takes 4 seconds to complete one full cycle.

Therefore, the time taken for the wave to go from a point with displacement +A to a point with displacement -A is half the period, therefore for this wave:

t=\frac{T}{2}=\frac{4}{2}=2 s

You throw a ball upward with an initial speed of 4.3 m/s. When it returns to your hand 0.88 s later, it has the same speed in th
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

The acceleration is -9.8 m/s²

Explanation:

Hi there!!

When you throw a ball upward, there is a downward acceleration that makes the ball return to your hand. This acceleration is produced by gravity.

The average acceleration is calculated as the variation of the speed over time. In this case, we know the time and the initial and final speed. Then:

acceleration = final speed - initial speed/ elapsed time

acceleration = -4.3 m/s - 4.3 m/s / 0.88 s

acceleration = -9.8 m/s²

A particular spiral galaxy can be approximated by a thin disk-like volume 62 Thousand Light Years in radius and 7 Hundred Light
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

Approximate linear dimension is 2 light years.

Explanation:

Radius of the spiral galaxy r = 62000 LY

Thickness of the galaxy h = 700 LY

Volume of the galaxy = πr²h

                                   = (3.14)(62000)²(700)

                                   = (3.14)(62)²(7)(10)⁸

                                   = 84568×10⁸

                                   = 8.45\times 10^{12} (LY)³

Since galaxy contains number of stars = 1078 billion stars ≈ 1.078\times 10^{12}

Now volume covered by each star of the galaxy = \frac{\text{Total volume of the galaxy}}{\text{Number of stars}}

= \frac{8.45\times 10^{12} }{1.078\times 10^{12}}

= 7.839 Light Years

Now the linear dimension across the volume

= (\text{Average volume per star})^{\frac{1}{3}}

= (7.839)^{\frac{1}{3}}

= 1.99 LY

≈ 2 Light Years

Therefore, approximate linear dimension is 2 light years.
