A small space probe of mass 170 kg is launched from a spacecraft near Mars. It travels toward the surface of Mars, where it will

eventually land. At a time 22.9 seconds after it is launched, the probe is at location <5600, 7200, 0> m, and at this same instant its momentum is <51000, -7000, 0> kg·m/s. At this instant, the net force on the probe due to the gravitational pull of Mars plus the air resistance acting on the probe is <-4000, -780, 0> N.
Assuming that the net force on the probe is approximately constant during this time interval, what is the change of the momentum of the probe in the time interval from 22.6 seconds after the probe is launched to 22.9 seconds after the launch?

Answer:

The change  in momentum is  \Delta p =   kg \cdot m/s      

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

       The mass of the probe is  m = 170 kg

       The location of the prob at time t = 22.9 s is  A  =

       The  momentum at time  t = 22.9 s is  p = < 51000, -7000, 0> kg m/s

        The net force on the probe is  F =  N

Generally the change in momentum is mathematically represented as

              \Delta p = F * \Delta t

The initial time is   22.6 s

 The final time  is  22.9 s

             Substituting values  

           \Delta p =  * (22.9 - 22.6)

            \Delta p =  * (0.3)  

              \Delta p =   kg \cdot m/s

when you're in your house and hear a car drive by outside, how many different mediums do sound waves from the car engine have to
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

As the sound approaches, it gets louder (simply because you're closer to the source), and has a higher pitch. Then, as it passes, the sound suddenly dips down, and as it drives away you hear a lower pitch, plus a decreasing volume as the engine gets farther and farther away.

HELP...<br> 3.00 amu = _____ Mev.<br><br> 3.22 x 10-3<br> 2.79 x 103<br> 3.10 x 102
DanielleElmas [232]
The correct answer is:
2.79 \cdot 10^3 MeV
Let's see why.

1 amu corresponds to the mass of the proton, which is:
m_p = 1.66 \cdot 10^{-27} kg
if we convert this into energy, using Einstein equivalence between mass and energy, we find:
E=mc^2 = (1.66 \cdot 10^{-27} kg)(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)^2 = 1.49 \cdot 10^{-10} J
Now we can convert it into electronvolts:
E= \frac{1.49 \cdot 10^{-10}kg}{1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} J/eV} =9.34 \cdot 10^9 eV = 934 MeV

So, 1 amu = 934 MeV. Therefore, 3 amu corresponds to 3 times this value:
3 amu = 3 \cdot 934 MeV  \sim 2790 MeV = 2.79 \cdot 10^3 MeV

A playground merry-go-round has radius 2.10m and moment of inertia 2500kg*m^2 about a vertical axle through its center, and it t
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer

Radius of the wheel r = 2.1 m

Moment of inertia I = 2500 Kg m²

Tangential force applied F = 18 N

Time interval t = 16 s

Initial angular speed ω1 = 0

Final angular speed ω2 = ?

Let α be the angular acceleration.

Torque applied τ = Iα

                         F r = Iα

Angular acceleration α = F r/I

                                    = \dfrac{18\times 2.1}{2500}

                                    = 0.015 rad/s²

(a)From rotational kinematic relation

            Final angular speed ω₂ = ω₁ + αt

                                                 = 0 + (0.015 rad/s^2 * 16 s)

                                                 = 0.24 rad/s

(b) Work done W = 0.5 Iω₂² - (1/2)Iω₁²

                      = 0.5*( 2500 Kg m²)(0.24 rad/s)^2 - 0

                      =  72 J

(c) Average power supplied by the child P = W/t = \dfrac{72}{16}

                                                                        = 4.5 watt
