Nasa has developed deep-space 1 (ds-1), a spacecraft that is scheduled to rendezvous with the asteroid named 1992 kd (which orbi

ts the sun millions of miles from the earth). the propulsion system of ds-1 works by ejecting high-speed argon ions out the rear of the engine. the engine slowly increases the velocity of ds-1 by about +9.23 m/s per day. (a) how many days will it take to increase the velocity of ds-1 by +3440 m/s? (b) what is the acceleration of ds-1?

I can't give an exact number if the original velocity of ds-1 is not given. In that case, the final answer should just be in terms of an equation. Let's denote the original velocity to be v₀ and the days to be d.

Part a.)
v = v₀ + 9.23d
3440 = v₀ + 9.23d
9.23d = 3,440 - v₀
d = (3,440 - v₀)/9.23

Part b.)

The acceleration is the change in velocity per unit time. So, that would be 9.23 m/s per day. Since there are 86,400 s in a day:

a = 9.23 m/s / day * 1 day/ 86,400 s
a = 0.0001068 m/s²

Arte-miy333 [17]

Explanation:

Given:

u = 20 m/s

a = 5 m/s^2

v = 30 m/s

t = ?

Use the first kinematic equation of motion:

v = u + at

t = (v - u)/a = 10/5 = 2 seconds

A student connects a 1 hp motor to a bicycle. How much time will it take for the bicycle to accelerate from rest to a speed of 5
bija089 [108]

Answer:

t=2s

Explanation:

The definition of power is:

P=\frac{W}{t}

And the work-energy theorem states that:

W=\Delta K

Since the movement starts from rest, we have that:

\Delta K=\frac{mv_f^2}{2}-\frac{mv_0^2}{2}=\frac{mv_f^2}{2}

And putting all together:

P=\frac{mv_f^2}{2t}

Since we want the time taken:

t=\frac{mv_f^2}{2P}

Which for our values is:

t=\frac{(120kg)(5m/s)^2}{2(746W)}=2s

Answer:

Inhibit the flow of electrons  

Explanation:

An electric current usually consists of electrons moving through a wire.

An insulator prevents the flow of an electric current, so it inhibits the flow of electrons.
