As per the question, the mass of meteorite [ m]= 50 kg
The velocity of the meteorite [v] = 1000 m/s
When the meteorite falls on the ground, it will give whole of its kinetic energy to earth.
We are asked to calculate the gain in kinetic energy of earth.
The kinetic energy of meteorite is calculated as -
![Kinetic\ energy\ [K.E]\ =\frac{1}{2} mv^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Kinetic%5C%20energy%5C%20%5BK.E%5D%5C%20%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20mv%5E2)
![=\frac{1}{2}50kg*[1000\ m/s]^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D50kg%2A%5B1000%5C%20m%2Fs%5D%5E2)
Here, J stands for Joule which is the S.I unit of energy.
Answer:
∆T = Mv^2Y/2Cp
Explanation:
Formula for Kinetic energy of the vessel = 1/2mv^2
Increase in internal energy Δu = nCVΔT
where n is the number of moles of the gas in vessel.
When the vessel is to stop suddenly, its kinetic energy will be used to increase the temperature of the gas
We say
1/2mv^2 = ∆u
1/2mv^2 = nCv∆T
Since n = m/M
1/2mv^2 = mCv∆T/M
Making ∆T subject of the formula we have
∆T = Mv^2/2Cv
Multiple the RHS by Cp/Cp
∆T = Mv^2/2Cv *Cp/Cp
Since Y = Cp/CV
∆T = Mv^2Y/2Cp k
Since CV = R/Y - 1
We could also have
∆T = Mv^2(Y - 1)/2R k
Answer:
D.
Explanation:
Specifically, Special Relativity showed us that space and time are not independent of one another but can be mixed into each other and therefore must be considered as the same object, which we shall denote as space-time. The consequences of space/time mixing are: time dilation. and length contraction.
Power=Work/Time
The work done is the energy required to lift the box, fighting the force of gravity. So, Work=Potential energy of the box at 10 meters.
W=PE=mgh=(60)(9.8)(10)=5880J
Finally,
P=W/T=(5880)/(5)=1176Watt
So the answer is 1176 Watts
