An asteroid is moving along a straight line. A force acts along the displacement of the asteroid and slows it down. The asteroid

has a mass of 4.3 × 104 kg, and the force causes its speed to change from 7600 to 5000 m/s. (a) What is the work done by the force? (b) If the asteroid slows down over a distance of 1.4 × 106 m determine the magnitude of the force.

Answer:

a)

- 7.04\times10^{11} J

b)

5.03\times10^{5} N

Explanation:

a)

m = mass of the asteroid = 43000 kg

v_{o} = initial speed of asteroid = 7600 m/s

v = final speed of asteroid = 5000 m/s

W = Work done by the force on asteroid

Using work-change in kinetic energy theorem

W = (0.5) m (v^{2} - v_{o}^{2})\\W = (0.5) (43000) (5000^{2} - 7600^{2})\\W = - 7.04\times10^{11} J

b)

F = magnitude of force on asteroid

d = distance traveled by asteroid while it slows down = 1.4 x 10⁶ m

Work done by the force on the asteroid to slow it down is given as

W = - F d\\- 7.04\times10^{11} = - F (1.4\times10^{6})\\F = 5.03\times10^{5} N

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

Deflation

Explanation:

The process by which wind removes surface materials is called deflation.

Deflation is a process by which wind erodes the Earth's exterior and the regions which experience severe erosion are called deflation zones.

deflation originates by the erosive force of a wind that removes the loosened area and this process is facilitated by a dry climate and a loss of vegetative cover that helps to lose the sediment.

deflation is common in the arid regions.

The resistance of resistor is greater for:
Monica [59]

Answer:

c: long and thin resistor.

Explanation:

The resistance of a resistor is given by:

R = ρ*L/A

where:

R = resistance

ρ = resistivity (depends on the material)

L =  length of the material

A = cross-sectional area of the material

We can see that the length is on the numerator, which means that if we increase the length, then the resistance is increased.

We also can see that the cross-sectional area is on the denominator, then if we increase the area (for example, with a ticker resistor) the resistance decreases.

Then if we want to maximize the resistance, we need to have a long and thin resistor, so the correct answer is c.

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

1  greater distances fallen in successive seconds

Explanation:

When a body falls freely it is subjected to the action of the force of gravity, which gives an acceleration of 9.8 m / s2, consequently, we are in an accelerated movement

If we use the kinematic formula we can find the position of the body

       Y = Vo t + ½ to t2

Where the initial velocity is zero or constant and the acceleration is the acceleration of gravity

Y = - ½ g t2 = - ½ 9.8 t2 = -4.9 t2

Let's look for the position for successive times

t (s)      Y (m)

  1          -4.9

  2         -19.6

   3        -43.2

The sign indicates that the positive sense is up

It can be clearly seen that the distance is greatly increased every second that passes
