(8c5p80) Imagine a landing craft approaching the surface of Callisto, one of Jupiter's moons. If the engine provides an upward f

orce (thrust) of 3480 N, the craft descends at constant speed; if the engine provides only 2349 N, the craft accelerates downward at 0.39 m/s2. What is the weight of the landing craft in the vicinity of Callisto's surface

Answer:

The weight of the landing craft in the vicinity of Callisto's surface is 3480 N.

Explanation:

The engine of the craft provides an upward thrust of 3480 N so that the space craft descends at a constant speed.

This implies that the net force on the space craft is zero.

The upward thrust will be equal to the downward gravitational pull by Callisto.

So the weight of the craft near the vicinity will be 3480 N.

Finger [1]

Answer:

Ultraviolet radiation would yield more electrical energy

Explanation:

The reason for the ultraviolet to generate more energy is that there would be getting more electrons per unit of time the photovoltaic cell, due to the higher frequency of the ultraviolet in comparison with the infrared radiation.

The infrared spectrum goes from 300 GHz (10^9 Hertz) to 400 THz or (10^12 Hertz).

The ultraviolet spectrum goes from 800 THz to 30.000 THz or (10^12 Hertz). This kind of radiation is responsible for skin burn from the sun and it´s the “ most usable” part from the sunlight in a photovoltaic cell.

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

For the first equation, the work done would be 60 J, but if it is done with 30 N, it would have been 90 J.

Explanation:

it's actually pretty easy one you practice it for some time. W ( work done in joules ) = F ( force put onto the object in newtons ) * D ( distance traveled in meters ).
