Obviously, we can make rockets to go very fast, but what is a reasonable top speed? assume that a rocket is fired from rest at a

space station in deep space, where gravity is negligible. assume that c = 3.00 108 m/s.

I’ve answered this problem before and there were 2 parts in this problem.

The solution would be like this for this specific problem:

<span>A.    </span><span>Vf = Vi + Vex*ln(Mi / Mf) </span><span>
<span>0.002 * 3e8m/s = 0 + 2000m/s * ln(Mi / Mf) </span>
<span>300 = ln(Mi / Mf) </span>
<span>1.9e130 = Mi / Mf </span></span>

 

<span>B.    </span><span>4000m/s = 2000m/s * ln(Mi / Mf) </span><span>
<span>2 = ln(Mi / Mf) </span>
<span>7.389 = Mi / Mf </span>
<span>Mf = Mi / 7.389 = 0.135*Mi<span> </span></span></span>

A cannon is fired horizontally at 243 m/s off of a 62 meter tall, shear vertical cliff. How far in meters from the base of the c
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

865.08 m

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial velocity (u) = 243 m/s

Height (h) of the cliff = 62 m

Horizontal distance (s) =?

Next, we shall determine the time taken for the cannon to get to the ground. This can be obtained as follow:

Height (h) of the cliff = 62 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) =?

h = ½gt²

62 = ½ × 9.8 × t²

62 = 4.9 × t²

Divide both side by 4.9

t² = 62/4.9

Take the square root of both side.

t = √(62/4.9)

t = 3.56 s

Finally, we shall determine the horizontal distance travelled by the cannon ball as shown below:

Initial velocity (u) = 243 m/s

Time (t) = 3.56 s

Horizontal distance (s) =?

s = ut

s = 243 × 3.56 s

s = 865.08 m

Thus, the cannon ball will impact the ground 865.08 m from the base of the cliff.

Since astronauts in orbit are apparently weightless, a clever method of measuring their masses is needed to monitor their mass g
djyliett [7]

Answer:

a) m = 69.0 kg

b) release some gas in the opposite direction to the astronaut's movement

Explanation:

a) Let's use Newton's second law

         F = m a

         m = F / a

         m = 60.0 / 0.870

         m = 69.0 kg

b) when we exert a force on the astronaut it acquires a momentum po, as the astronaut system plus spacecraft is isolated, the momentum is conserved

         p₀ = p_f

         m v = M v '

         v ’= \frac{m}{M} \ v

so we see that the ship is moving backwards, but since the mass of the ship is much greater than the mass of the astronaut, the speed of the ship is very small.

One method to avoid this effect is to release some gas in the opposite direction to the astronaut's movement so that the initial momentum of the astronaut plus the gas is zero and therefore no movement is created in the spacecraft.

A resistor uses 100 w of power when connected to 120 v emf. What is the current through the same resistor when connected to a 22
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the resistance of resistor be R .

Power of resistor  V² / R , where V is potential applied .

V² / R = 100

120² / R = 100

R = 120² / 100

= 144 ohm .

Now potential diff applied = 220 V

current = potential diff / resistance

= 220 / 144

= 1.53 A approx .
