Answer:

599 meters is the answer rounded to the nearest whole number and 599.489795918 meters is the complete answer

Explanation:

to find gravitational potential energy you multiply mass x acceleration due to gravity (always 9.8 on earth) x hight

since we know the gravitational potential energy and want to find out the hight, we take the gravitational potential energy (470,000) and divide it by the product of acceleration due to gravity x mass (9.8 x 80)

so how high the hiker climbed is equal to 470,000 divided by (9.8 x 80)

hight = 470,000 / (9.8 x 80)

hight = 470,000 / 784

hight = 599.489795918 meters

as for rounding, if the decimal is less than 5 you round "down" and keep the current whole number, if the decimal is 5 or greater you round "up" and add 1 to get your new number

If m=120kg and a=15m/s2, what is the force
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

F= 1800N

Explanation:

the equation for force is F= ma

so plug in the numbers: F= (120)(15)

solve this to get F= 1800N

tip: don't forget to add the units when writing your answer :)

In 2005 astronomers announced the discovery of a large black hole in the galaxy Markarian 766 having clumps of matter orbiting a
IRISSAK [1]

A. 4.64\cdot 10^{11}m

The orbital speed of the clumps of matter around the black hole is equal to the ratio between the circumference of the orbit and the period of revolution:

v=\frac{2\pi r}{T}

where we have:

v=30,000 km/s = 3\cdot 10^7 m/s is the orbital speed

r is the orbital radius

T=27 h \cdot 3600 =97,200 s is the orbital period

Solving for r, we find the distance of the clumps of matter from the centre of the black hole:

r=\frac{vT}{2\pi}=\frac{(3\cdot 10^7 m/s)(97200 s)}{2\pi}=4.64\cdot 10^{11}m

B. 6.26\cdot 10^{36}kg, 3.13\cdot 10^6 M_s

The gravitational force between the black hole and the clumps of matter provides the centripetal force that keeps the matter in circular motion:

m\frac{v^2}{r}=\frac{GMm}{r^2}

where

m is the mass of the clumps of matter

G is the gravitational constant

M is the mass of the black hole

Solving the formula for M, we find the mass of the black hole:

M=\frac{v^2 r}{G}=\frac{(3\cdot 10^7 m/s)^2(4.64\cdot 10^{11} m)}{6.67\cdot 10^{-11}}=6.26\cdot 10^{36}kg

and considering the value of the solar mass

M_s = 2\cdot 10^{30}kg

the mass of the black hole as a multiple of our sun's mass is

M=\frac{6.26\cdot 10^{36} kg}{2\cdot 10^{30} kg}=3.13\cdot 10^6 M_s

C. 9.28\cdot 10^9 m

The radius of the event horizon is equal to the Schwarzschild radius of the black hole, which is given by

R=\frac{2MG}{c^2}

where M is the mass of the black hole and c is the speed of light.

Substituting numbers into the formula, we find

R=\frac{6.26\cdot 10^{36} kg)(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})}{(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)^2}=9.28\cdot 10^9 m

A deuteron, 21H, is the nucleus of a hydrogen isotope and consists of one proton and one neutron. The plasma of deuterons in a n
Naddik [55]

Answer:

1917723.40119 m/s

Explanation:

m = Mass of deuteron = (1.637+1.675)\times 10^{-27}=3.312\times 10^{-27}

k = Boltzmann constant = 1.381\times 10^{-23}\ J/K

T = Temperature = 2.94\times 10^8\ K

RMS velocity is given by

V_r=\sqrt{\dfrac{3kT}{m}}\\\Rightarrow V_r=\sqrt{\dfrac{3\times 1.381\times 10^{-23}\times 2.94\times 10^8}{3.312\times 10^{-27}}}\\\Rightarrow V_r=1917723.40119\ m/s

The RMS velocity of the deutrons is 1917723.40119 m/s
