Constellations are based off of many Greek and Roman fables. Many of their gods and beliefs are pictured in the stars, which is where we get most of our constellations. Hope this helps!

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

(a). Energy is 64,680 J

(b) velocity is 51.43m/s

(c) velocity in mph is 115.0mph

Explanation:

(a).

The potential energy P of the payload of mass m is at a vertical distance h is  

P =mgh.

Therefore, for the payload of mass m = 50kg at a vertical distance of h = 132 m, the potential energy is

P = (50kg)(9.8m/s^2)(132m)

\boxed{P = 64,680J}

(b).

When the payload reaches the bottom of the shaft, all of its potential energy is converted into its kinetic energy; therefore,

mgh= \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

v= \sqrt{2gh}

v = \sqrt{2*9.8*135}

\boxed{v = 51.43m/s}

(c).

The velocity in mph is

\dfrac{51.43m}{s} * \dfrac{3600s}{hr} * \dfrac{1mile}{1609.34m}

\boxed{v= 115.0mph}

For a satellite of mass mS in a circular orbit of radius rS around the Earth, determine its kinetic energy, K . Express your ans
agasfer [191]

Since it is asking you to find the kinetic energy in relation to the mass, radius, mechanical energy (total energy), and constants, you will need to setup an equation first to "find" the Mechanical Energy, so that we can then solve for the kinetic energy, as from my experience with high school physics, there is only the graviational potential energy equation and force in relation to celestial bodies.

Knowing the ME is the total energy, we add up the energies of the system. Since it is being influenced by the Earth, as per the problem stating the satellite has circular orbit around the Earth, we know there is gravitational potential. Since it is orbiting, we can assume some type of velocity. Nothing else that we need to worry about should be occuring at this level of physics, leaving you with

ME= Ug+K

from here we solve for K, as plugging in could get confusing and messy at the moment.

ME-Ug=K

now using the equations presumably given in class, if not then using this equation, we can find the Ug

Ug=(-(Gm*M)/r)     note that M is the mass of the Earth and m is the satellite

this should give us

ME-(-(GmM)/r)=K

since there is a negative being subracted, we can change that to

ME+(GmM)/r=K

I believe this should be fine, as the Earth's mass is constant, but if not, then all you need to figure left is how to get rid of the M in the equation, as the rest of the terms and constants are for sure within the requirements.

( Image is 6 C carbon with the numbers 12.011 under it ) According to the image, the atomic mass of carbon is 12.011. How is the
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

B. By adding the number of protons and the number of neutrons

Explanation:

The atomic mass is determined by adding the number of protons and neutrons in an atom. An atom is made up of three fundamental particles: Electrons, Protons and Neutrons.

The protons and neutrons occupy a central region in an atom known as the nucleus. The nucleus is positively charged and mass concentrated.

If we compare the relative masses of the subatomic particles, the masses of protons and neutrons would be 1 and that of an electron would be 1/1840. This shows that the mass of electrons are negligible.

In order to ascertain atomic mass, we therefore add the number of protons and neutrons together. This is how we arrive at 12.011 as the value of the atomic mass of C and for other elements.

The atomic mass is also known as the mass number.

Which of the following changes would decrease the coefficient of friction needed for this ride?
posledela
Friction occurs between two contacting surfaces. The coefficient of friction is very much dependent on the roughness of these surfaces. Some of the many ways in which the coefficient can be lessened or decreased are to lubricate the surface or make it shiny by eliminating the spikes which caused the roughness.

How does this diagram demonstrate the law of superposition?
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

well, as u can tell the top layer will always be the youngest layer aka the newest layer. The farther u go down the older the layers get. So the deeper u dig the farther back in time we see.
