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

$\Delta p = * (22.9 - 22.6)$

$\Delta p = * (0.3)$

$\Delta p = kg \cdot m/s$

A 0.10 g honeybee acquires a charge of +23 pC while flying.

kari74 [83]

Answer:

a) $\frac{F}{w} =2.347\times 10^{-6}\ N$

b) $E=4.2609\times 10^7\ N.C^{-1}$ parallel to the earth surface.

In this case according to the Fleming's left hand rule the direction of movement of bee must be in a direction parallel to the earth surface and perpendicular to the electric field at the same time.

Explanation:

Given:

mass of the bee, $m=10^{-4}\ kg$

charge acquired by the bee, $q_2=23\times 10^{-12}\ C$

a.

Electrical field near the earth surface, $E=100\ N.C^{-1}$

Now the electric force on the bee:

we know:

$F=\frac{1}{4\pi.\epsilon_0} \times \frac{q_1.q_2}{r^2}$

$F=E.q_2$

$F=100\times 23\times 10^{-12}$

$F=23\times 10^{-10}\ N$

The weight of the bee:

$w=m.g$

$w=10^{-4}\times 9.8$

$w=9.8\times10^{-4}\ N$

Therefore the ratio :

$\frac{F}{w} =\frac{23\times 10^{-10}}{9.8\times10^{-4}}$

$\frac{F}{w} =2.347\times 10^{-6}\ N$

b.

The condition for the bee to hang is its weight must get balanced by the electric force acing equally in the opposite direction.

So,

$F=9.8\times10^{-4}\ N$

$E.q_2=9.8\times10^{-4}\ N$

$E\times 23\times 10^{-12}=9.8\times10^{-4}\ N$

$E=4.2609\times 10^7\ N.C^{-1}$ parallel to the earth surface.

In this case according to the Fleming's left hand rule the direction of movement of bee must be in a direction parallel to the earth surface and perpendicular to the electric field at the same time.

What is the relationship between amplitude and frequency of a wave?.

kondaur [170]

Answer:

The relationship between the wave's amplitude and frequency is such that it is inversely proportional to the frequency. The amplitude decreases as the frequency increases. The amplitude increases as the frequency decreases. The higher the energy of a wave, the higher the amplitude. The lower the energy, the lower the amplitude. Energy has no effect on wavelength, speed, or frequency, only the amplitude.

A train traveled from Station A to Station B at an average speed of 80 kilometers per hour and then from Station B to Station C

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

1)

75 kmh⁻¹

2)

75 kmh⁻¹

Explanation:

1)

$v_{ab}$ = Speed of train from station A to station B = 80 kmh⁻¹

$d_{ab}$ = distance traveled from station A to station B

$t_{ab}$ = time of travel between station A to station B

we know that

$Time = \frac{distance}{speed}$

$t_{ab} = \frac{d_{ab}}{v_{ab}} = \frac{d_{ab}}{80}$

$d_{bc}$ = distance traveled from station B to station C

$v_{bc}$ = Speed of train from station B to station C = 60 kmh⁻¹

$t_{bc} = \frac{d_{bc}}{v_{bc}} = \frac{d_{bc}}{60}$

Total distance traveled is given as

$d = d_{ab} + d_{bc}$

Total time of travel is given as

$t = t_{ab} + t_{bc}$

Average speed is given as

$v_{avg} = \frac{d}{t} \\v_{avg} = \frac{d_{ab} + d_{bc}}{t_{ab} + t_{bc}}\\v_{avg} = \frac{d_{ab} + d_{bc}}{(\frac{d_{ab}}{80} ) + (\frac{d_{bc}}{60} ) }$

Given that :

$d_{ab} = 4 d_{bc}$

So

$v_{avg} = \frac{4 d_{bc} + d_{bc}}{(\frac{4 d_{bc}}{80} ) + (\frac{d_{bc}}{60} ) }\\v_{avg} = \frac{4 + 1}{(\frac{4 }{80} ) + (\frac{1}{60} ) }\\v_{avg} = 75 kmh^{-1}$

2)

$v_{ab}$ = Speed of train from station A to station B = 80 kmh⁻¹

$t_{ab}$ = time of travel between station A to station B

$d_{ab}$ = distance traveled from station A to station B

we know that

$distance = (speed) (time)$

$d_{ab} = v_{ab} t_{ab}\\d_{ab} = 80 t_{ab}$

$d_{bc}$ = distance traveled from station B to station C

$v_{bc}$ = Speed of train from station B to station C = 60 kmh⁻¹

$t_{bc}$ = time of travel for train from station B to station C

we know that

$distance = (speed) (time)$

$d_{bc} = v_{bc} t_{bc}\\d_{bc} = 60 t_{bc}$

Total distance traveled is given as

$d = d_{ab} + d_{bc}\\d = 80 t_{ab} + 60 t_{bc}$

Total time of travel is given as

$t = t_{ab} + t_{bc}$

Average speed is given as

$v_{avg} = \frac{d}{t} \\v_{avg} = \frac{d_{ab} + d_{bc}}{t_{ab} + t_{bc}}\\v_{avg} = \frac{80 t_{ab} + 60 t_{bc}}{t_{ab} + t_{bc}}$

Given that :

$t_{ab} = 3 t_{bc}$

So

$v_{avg} = \frac{80 t_{ab} + 60 t_{bc}}{t_{ab} + t_{bc}}\\v_{avg} = \frac{80 (3) t_{bc} + 60 t_{bc}}{(3) t_{bc} + t_{bc}}\\v_{avg} = \frac{(300) t_{bc}}{(4) t_{bc}}\\v_{avg} = 75 kmh^{-1}$

For a Physics course containing 10 students, the maximum point total for the quarter was 200. The point totals for the 10 studen

Talja [164]

Answer:

130.5

Explanation:

According to the stemplot attached (Which I think it is, and if not, then you only need to replace the procedure with your data and you should be fine), you need to calculate first the points of all ten students. In that plot, we can easily calculate the points.

The first number in the colum represents the centen of the point, while the numbers of the second column, represents the units of that centen, for example if you see:

16 | 8 5 6

This means that the point for the students are 168, 165 and 166. Three students, three points.

If you watch the stemplot, the points for the students are:

116, 118, 121, 124, 128, 133, 137, 142, 146 and 179.

The median can be calculated using the mean between the two values in the middle of the sequence.

In this case, half of ten is 5, so, the numbers from the middle in this sequence are 128 and 133, therefore:

Median = 128 + 133 / 2 = 130.5
