Like the moon's orbit, Earth's orbit is not a perfect circle, but an oval How do you think this might affect Earth's tides?

During the parts in the orbit where the moon is farthest away from the earth the tides will be low. Whereas during the parts where the moon is closer to the earth the tides will be higher.

Good Luck!

A car is strapped to a rocket (combined mass = 661 kg), and its kinetic energy is 66,120 J.
Katen [24]

Answer:

9.4 m/s

Explanation:

The work-energy theorem states that the work done on an object is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the object.

So we can write:

W=K_f - K_i

where in this problem:

W = -36.733 J is the work performed on the car (negative because its direction is opposite to the motion of the car)

K_i = 66,120 J is the initial kinetic energy of the car

K_f is the final kinetic energy

Solving for Kf,

K_f = W+K_i = -36,733+66,120=29,387 J

The kinetic energy of the car can be also written as

K_f = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

where:

m = 661 kg is the mass of the car

v is its final speed

Solving, we find

v=\sqrt{\frac{2K}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(29,387)}{661}}=9.4 m/s

Future space rockets might propel themselves by firing laser beams, rather than exhaust gases, out the back. The acceleration wo
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

Acceleration = 0.0282 m/s^2

Distance = 13.98 * 10^12 m

Explanation:

we will apply the energy theorem

work done = ΔK.E ( change in Kinetic energy )  ---- ( 1 )

<em>where :</em>

work done = p * t

                  = 15 * 10^6 watts * ( 1 year ) = 473040000 * 10^6 J

( note : convert 1 year to seconds )

and ΔK.E = 1/2 mVf^2   given ; m = 1200 kg  and initial V = 0

<u>back to equation 1 </u>

473040000 * 10^6  = 1/2 mv^2

Vf^2 = 2(473040000 * 10^6 ) / 1200

∴ Vf = 887918.92 m/s

<u>i) Determine how fast the rocket is ( acceleration of the rocket )</u>

a = Vf / t

  = 887918.92 / ( 1 year )

  = 0.0282 m/s^2

<u>ii) determine distance travelled by rocket </u>

Vf^2 - Vi^2 = 2as

Vi = 0

hence ; Vf^2 = 2as

s ( distance ) =  Vf^2 / ( 2a )

                     = ( 887918.92 )^2 / ( 2 * 0.0282 )

                    = 13.98 * 10^12 m

How does laser works ?<br>​
erastova [34]

Explanation:

Lasers produce a narrow beam of light in which all of the light waves have very similar wavelengths. The laser's light waves travel together with their peaks all lined up, or in phase. This is why laser beams are very narrow, very bright, and can be focused into a very tiny spot.
