Satellites are sent out into space to make "fly bys" of planets, moons, and objects in the outer solar system,

You'd have to say that the statement is false. It's a matter of wording.

The things called "satellites" are designed to enter orbit of something ...
usually the Earth, but it could be another body.

The spacecraft that are designed to "fly by" something and then keep going
are usually called "space probes", not "satellites".

A car speeds up from 13 m/s to 23 m/s in 30 seconds. What is the

Lapatulllka [165]

acceleration of the car = 0.33 m/s²

Explanation:

To calculate the acceleration of the car we use the following formula:

acceleration = change in velocity / time

change in velocity = final velocity - initial velocity

change in velocity = 23 m/s - 13 m/s = 10 m/s

change in velocity = 10 m/s

acceleration = 10 m/s / 30 s

acceleration = 0.33 m/s²

3. Why does any bonding occur (this includes ionic bonding and covalent bonding)?

Rzqust [24]

Answer:im not sure but hope this helps

Explanation:

Covalent bonds are formed because of sharing electrons whereas ionic bonds formation occurs because of transferring of electrons. Molecules are the particles in covalent bonds all through compound formation whereas in ionic bonds these are positively charged and negatively charged ions.

A particle with a mass of 0.500 kg is attached to a horizontal spring with a force constant of 50.0 N/m. At the moment t = 0, th

svp [43]

a) $x(t)=2.0 sin (10 t) [m]$

The equation which gives the position of a simple harmonic oscillator is:

$x(t)= A sin (\omega t)$

where

A is the amplitude

$\omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}$ is the angular frequency, with k being the spring constant and m the mass

t is the time

Let's start by calculating the angular frequency:

$\omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{50.0 N/m}{0.500 kg}}=10 rad/s$

The amplitude, A, can be found from the maximum velocity of the spring:

$v_{max}=\omega A\\A=\frac{v_{max}}{\omega}=\frac{20.0 m/s}{10 rad/s}=2 m$

So, the equation of motion is

$x(t)= 2.0 sin (10 t) [m]$

b) t=0.10 s, t=0.52 s

The potential energy is given by:

$U(x)=\frac{1}{2}kx^2$

While the kinetic energy is given by:

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

The velocity as a function of time t is:

$v(t)=v_{max} cos(\omega t)$

The problem asks as the time t at which U=3K, so we have:

$\frac{1}{2}kx^2 = \frac{3}{2}mv^2\\kx^2 = 3mv^2\\k (A sin (\omega t))^2 = 3m (\omega A cos(\omega t))^2\\(tan(\omega t))^2=\frac{3m\omega^2}{k}$

However, $\frac{m}{k}=\frac{1}{\omega^2}$ , so we have

$(tan(\omega t))^2=\frac{3\omega^2}{\omega^2}=3\\tan(\omega t)=\pm \sqrt{3}\\$

with two solutions:

$\omega t= \frac{\pi}{3}\\t=\frac{\pi}{3\omega}=\frac{\pi}{3(10 rad/s)}=0.10 s$

$\omega t= \frac{5\pi}{3}\\t=\frac{5\pi}{3\omega}=\frac{5\pi}{3(10 rad/s)}=0.52 s$

c) 3 seconds.

When x=0, the equation of motion is:

$0=A sin (\omega t)$

so, t=0.

When x=1.00 m, the equation of motion is:

$1=A sin(\omega t)\\sin(\omega t)=\frac{1}{A}=\frac{1}{2}\\\omega t= 30\\t=\frac{30}{\omega}=\frac{30}{10 rad/s}=3 s$

So, the time needed is 3 seconds.

d) 0.097 m

The period of the oscillator in this problem is:

$T=\frac{2\pi}{\omega}=\frac{2\pi}{10 rad/s}=0.628 s$

The period of a pendulum is:

$T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

where L is the length of the pendulum. By using T=0.628 s, we find

$L=\frac{T^2g}{(2\pi)^2}=\frac{(0.628 s)^2(9.8 m/s^2)}{(2\pi)^2}=0.097 m$
