NASA is concerned about the ability of a future lunar outpost to store the supplies necessary to support the astronauts the supply storage area of the lunar outpost where gravity is 1.63m/s/s can only support 1 x 10 over 5 N. What is the maximum WEIGHT of supplies, as measured on EARTH, NASA should plan on sending to the lunar outpost?

Answer:

601000 N

Explanation:

Given that :

Acceleration due to gravity at lunar outpost = 1.6m/s²

Supported Weight of supplies = 1 * 10^5 N

Acceleration due to gravity on the earth surface = 9.8m/s²

Maximum weight of supplies as measured on EARTH :

Ratio of earth gravity to lunar post gravity:

(Earth gravity / Lunar post gravity) ;

(9.8 / 1.63) = 6.01

Hence, maximum weight of supplies as measured on EARTH should be :

6.01 * (1 × 10^5)

6.01 × 10^5

= 601000 N

To practice Problem-Solving Strategy 16.1 Standing waves. An air-filled pipe is found to have successive harmonics at 800 HzHz ,

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

Length of the pipe = 53.125 cm

Explanation:

given data

harmonic frequency f1 = 800 Hz

harmonic frequency f2 = 1120 Hz

harmonic frequency f3 = 1440 Hz

solution

first we get here fundamental frequency that is express as

2F = f2 - f1 ...............1

put here value

2F = 1120 - 800

F = 160 Hz

and

Wavelength is express as

Wavelength = Speed ÷ Fundamental frequency ................2

here speed of waves in air = 340 m/s

so put here value

Wavelength =340 ÷ 160

Wavelength = 2.125 m

Length of the pipe will be

Length of the pipe = 0.25 × wavelength ......................3

put here value

Length of the pipe = 0.25 × 2.125

Length of the pipe = 0.53125 m

Length of the pipe = 53.125 cm
