Two cars - Car A and Car B - drive in the same direction down a street. Car B is traveling at 30 m/s. Car A is traveling 20 m/s.

Imagine that you're sitting inside Car A and Car B passes you. What is the velocity of Car B relative to you? Don't forget UNITS.

Two identical asteroids travel side by side while touching one another. If the asteroids are composed of homogeneous pure iron a

victus00 [196]

Answer:

diameter = 21.81 ft

Explanation:

The gravitational force equation is:

$F=\frac{GMm}{R^{2} }$

Where:

F => Gravitational force or force of attraction between two masses
M => Mass of asteroid 1
m => Mass of asteroid 2
R => Distance between asteroids 1 and 2 (from center of gravity)

We also know that the asteroids are identical so their masses are identical:

M=m

Since R is the distance between centers of the two asteroids and their diameters are identical (see attachment), we can conclude that:

R=d=2r

We don´t know the mass of the asteroids but we know they are composed of pure iron, so we can relate their masses to their density:

m=ρV

This is going to be helpful because the volume of a sphere is:

$\frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}$

And know we can write our original force of gravity equation in terms of the radius of the asteroids:

$F=\frac{GMm}{R^{2} } =\frac{Gmm}{(2r)^{2} } =\frac{Gm^{2} }{4r^{2} }$
$F=\frac{G ( \frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}ρ)^{2} }{4r^{2} }$
$F= \frac{G(16)\pi ^{2} r^{6} ρ^{2}}{(9)(4)r^{2} } =\frac{G(16)\pi ^{2} r^{4}ρ^{2} }{36}$

Now let´s plug in the values we know:

$F = 1 lb$ mutual gravitational attraction force
$G = 6.67(10)^{-11}$ gravitational constant
$ρ_{iron} =491.5 \frac{lb}{ft^{3} }$

$1= \frac{6.67(10)^{-11} \pi ^{2} r^{4} (491.5)^{2}}{36}$

Solve for r and multiply by 2 because 2r = diameter

$d=2\sqrt[4]{\frac{1}{7.07(10)^{-5} } }$

Result is d = 21.81 Feet

A photon has an energy of 5.53 Ã 10Â¯17 j. what is its frequency in sÂ¯1?

Butoxors [25]

<span>energy is directly proportional fo frequency
as in blue photons are more energetic than red photons
so
E = h * f
look up h (Planck's constant)
plug and play!</span><span>

A 5.30 m long pole is balanced vertically on its tip. What will be the speed (in meters/second) of the tip of the pole just befo

suter [353]

Answer:

v = 17.66 m/s

Explanation:

As we know that the lower end of the pole is fixed in the ground and it start rotating about that end

so here we can say that the gravitational potential energy of the pole will convert into rotational kinetic energy of the pole about its one end

so we have

$mgL = \frac{1}{2}(\frac{mL^2}{3})\omega^2$

so we have

$\omega = \sqrt{\frac{6g}{L}}$

now we have

$\omega = \sqrt{\frac{6(9.81)}{5.30}}$

$\omega = 3.33 rad/s$

now the speed of the other tip of the pole is given as

$v = \omega L$

$v = (3.33)(5.30) = 17.66 m/s$
