An object is dropped from rest from a height 5.6 × 106 m above the surface of the earth. If there is no air resistance, what is

its speed when it strikes the earth? The acceleration of gravity is 9.81 m/s 2 and the radius of the Earth is 6.37 × 106 m. Answer in units of km/s.

Answer:

The answer to your question is:  10.48 km/s

Explanation:

Data

h = 5.6 x 10⁶ m

g = 9.8 m/s²

Formula

                 vf = \sqrt{2gh}

Substitution

                vf = \sqrt{2(5.6 x 10^{6}) (9.81)}

                vf = \sqrt{109760000}

                vf = 10476.64 m/s

convert to km/s

               vf = 10476.64/1000

               vf = 10.48 km/s

A spherical object (with non-uniform density) of mass 16 kg and radius 0.22 m rolls along a horizontal surface at a constant lin
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

Kr = 0.7618K

Explanation:

Suppose that the object's velocity is V, then his kinetic energy is:

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

K = \frac{(16)v^{2} }{2}

K = 8v^{2}

The rotational kinetic energy is

Kr = \frac{Iw^{2} }{2}

           where I: The moment of inertia

                      ω: angular velocity

Kr =\frac{(0.59)w^{2} }{2}

Kr = 0.295w^{2}

How the movement is without slipping, then  

ω = \frac{v}{r}

ω = \frac{v}{0.22}

Thus

Kr = \frac{0.295v^{2} }{0.22^{2} }

Kr = 6.095v^{2}

8v^{2}  ---->  1

6.095v^{2}----->?

Kr = 0.7618K

A uniform rod is 2. 0 m long and has mass 15 kg. What is most nearly the rod's mass moment of inertia?
trapecia [35]

The rod's mass moment of inertia is 5kgm².

<h3>Moment of Inertia:</h3>

The "sum of the product of mass" of each particle with the "square of its distance from the axis of rotation" is the formula for the moment of inertia.

The Parallel axis Theorem can be used to compute the moment of inertia about the end of the rod directly or to derive it from the center of mass expression. I = kg m². We can use the equation for I of a cylinder around its end if the thickness is not insignificant.

If we look at the rod we can assume that it is uniform. Therefore the linear density will remain constant and we have;

or = M / L = dm / dl

dm = (M / L) dl

I =  \int\limits^M_0 {r^2} \, dm

I = \int\limits^\frac{L}{2} _\frac{-L}{2}  {I^2 (M/L)} \, dl

Here the variable of the integration is the length (dl). The limits have changed from M to the required fraction of L.

I = \int\limits^\frac{L}{2} _\frac{-L}{2}  {I^2 (M/L)} \, dl

I = \frac{M}3L}[(\frac{L^3}{2^3}   - \frac{-L^3}{2^3} )]\\\\I = \frac{1}{12}ML^2

Mass of the rod = 15 kg

Length of the rod = 2.0 m

Moment of Inertia, I = \frac{1}{12}15 (2)^2

                               = 5 kgm²

Therefore, the moment of inertia is 5kgm².

A 25 kg lamp is hanging from a rope. What is the tension force being supplied by the rope?
d1i1m1o1n [39]

The tension force being supplied by the rope is 245 N.

<h3>What is tension force?</h3>
  • Tension force is the force exerted on a rope or cord due to the weight of an object suspended from it.

The tension force on the given rope due to the weight of the lamp hanging from the rope is calculated by applying Newton's second law of motion as shown below;

T = mg

where;

  • m is the mass = 25 kg
  • g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

T = 25 x 9.8

T = 245 N

Thus, the tension force being supplied by the rope is 245 N.
