A rocket is launched straight up from the earth's surface at a speed of 1.80×104 m/s .part awhat is its speed when it is very fa
balandron [24]
We can solve the problem by using the law of conservation of energy.

When the rocket starts its motion from the Earth surface, its mechanical energy is sum of kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy:
E_i = K_i + U_i =  \frac{1}{2} m v_i^2 + (- \frac{GM}{r} )
where
m is the rocket's mass
v_i = 1.8 \cdot 10^4 m/s is the rocket initial speed
G=6.67 \cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2} is the gravitational constant
M=5.97 \cdot 10^{24} kg is the Earth's mass
r= 6.37 \cdot 10^6 m is the distance of the rocket from the Earth's center (so, it corresponds to the Earth's radius)

The mechanical energy of the rocket when it is very far from the Earth is just kinetic energy (because the gravitational potential at infinite distance from Earth is taken to be zero):
E_f = K_f =  \frac{1}{2} mv_f ^2
where v_f is the final speed of the rocket.

By equalizing the initial energy and the final energy, we can find the final velocity:
\frac{1}{2} mv_i ^2 -  \frac{GM}{r} = \frac{1}{2}m v_f^2
v_f =  \sqrt{v_i^2 -  \frac{GM}{r} } =1.41 \cdot 10^4 m/s

What is the length of an aluminum rod at 65°C if its length at 15°C is 1.2 meters? A. 0.00180 meter B. 1.201386 meters C. 1.2
Deffense [45]

Answer:

Option B is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Thermal expansion

            \Delta L=L\alpha \Delta T

L = 1.2 meter

ΔT = 65 - 15 = 50°C

Thermal Expansion Coefficient for aluminum, α = 24 x 10⁻⁶/°C

We have change in length

          \Delta L=L\alpha \Delta T=1.2\times 24\times 10^{-6}\times 50=1.44\times 10^{-3}m

New length = 1.2 + 1.44 x 10⁻³ = 1.2014 m

Option B is the correct answer.

A driver entering the outskirts of a city takes her foot off the accelerator so that the car slows down from 90 km/h to 50 km/h
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

a = (vf - vi) / t

a = (50 - 90) / 10.0

a = -4 km/h/s(1000 m/km / 3600 s/h)

a = - 1.11 m/s²
