A certain planet has an escape speed V. If another planet has twice the radius and twice the mass of the first planet, its escap
Ber [7]

Answer:

option A

Explanation:

Escape velocity of the planet

       v = \sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{R}}

now, it is given that

Second Planet

R₂ = 2R          and M₂ = 2M

now escape velocity of the second planet

now,

       v'= \sqrt{\dfrac{G(2M)}{(2R)}}

on solving

       v'= \sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{R}}

       v'= v

escape velocity of the second planet is equal to first.

The correct answer is option A

A 75 gram ball is fired into a 200 gram pendulum and the center of gravity of the pendulum-ball rises to a height of 2.5 cm. The
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

The initial velocity of the ball is 2.567 m/s

Solution:

Mass of the ball, m = 75 gm = 0.075 kg

Mass of the pendulum, m' = 200 gm = 0.2 kg

Height of rise of the ball, h = 2.5 cm = 0.025 m

Length, l = 30 cm = 0.3 m

Now,

Total mass, M = m + m' = 0.075 + 0.2 = 0.275 kg

Now,

Suppose the initial velocity of the ball be v_{i}

The total mass is raised to a height of 0.025 m after the ball has been fired, thus the total potential energy of the system is given by:

PE = Mgh = 0.275\times 9.8\times 0.025 = 0.0674\ J

Now, the initial kinetic energy of the system:

KE = \frac{1}{2}Mv^{2}

Now, using law of conservation of energy:

PE = KE

\frac{1}{2}Mv^{2} = 0.0674

v = \sqrt{\frac{0.13475}{0.275}} = 0.7\ m/s

Now by using the principle of momentum conservation:

mv_{i} = Mv

v_{i} = \frac{Mv}{m}

v_{i} = \frac{0.275\times 0.7}{0.075} = 2.567\ m/s

A coin rests 11.0 cm from the center of a turntable. The coefficient of static friction between the coin and turntable surface i
9966 [12]

Answer:

5.5 rad/s

Explanation:

The friction between the coin and the turntable provides the centripetal force that keeps the coin in circular motion. Therefore, we can write:

\mu mg = m\omega^2 r

where

\mu = 0.340 is the coefficient of friction

m is the mass of the coin

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

\omega is the angular speed

r is the distance of the coin from the centre of rotation

In this problem,

r = 11.0 cm = 0.11 m

The coin starts to slip when the centripetal force becomes larger than the maximum frictional force:

m\omega^2 r > \mu m g

Solving for \omega, we find the angular speed at which this happens:

\omega = \sqrt{\frac{\mu g}{r}}=\sqrt{\frac{(0.340)(9.8)}{0.11}}=5.5 rad/s

Mama L [17]

The speed of light is c = 3 * 10E8 m/s in all reference frames.

Therefore, no matter how fast the car is approaching you

you will receive light photons traveling at speed c and the

approaching car will see photons traveling away from it with speed c.
