The acceleration due to gravity on the Moon is gM. Suppose an astronaut on the Moon drops an object from a height of H. The time

it would take the object to reach the Moon’s surface would be TM. The same object is dropped from the same height on Earth, where the acceleration due to gravity is gE. The time it takes the object to reach the Earth’s surface is TE. Which of the following is a correct mathematical relationship for the two times?
TE=gEgM−−−√TM

TE=gEgMTM
A

TE=gMgE−−−√TM

TE=gMgETM
B

TE=gEgMTM

TE=gEgMTM
C

TE=gMgETM

TE=gMgETM
D

TE=TM

Answer:

TE = sqrt(GM/GE)TM

Explanation:

To solve for this problem, you have to use the second kinematic equation and set the height equal to each other.  Because the heights are equal, 1/2GETE^2 = 1/2GMTM^2.  Rearrange the equation and you'll get the answer

A 26-g steel-jacketed bullet is fired with a velocity of 630 m/s toward a steel plate and ricochets along path CD with a velocit
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

  F = - 3.53 10⁵ N

Explanation:

This problem must be solved using the relationship between momentum and the amount of movement.

          I = F t = Δp

To find the time we use that the average speed in the contact is constant (v = 600m / s), let's use the uniform movement ratio

        v = d / t

        t = d / v

Reduce SI system

          m = 26 g ( 1 kg/1000g) = 26 10⁻³ kg

          d = 50 mm ( 1m/ 1000 mm) = 50 10⁻³ m

Let's calculate

         t = 50 10⁻³ / 600

         t = 8.33 10⁻⁵ s

With this value we use the momentum and momentum relationship

        F t = m v - m v₀

As the bullet bounces the speed sign after the crash is negative

       F = m (v-vo) / t

       F = 26 10⁻³ (-500 - 630) / 8.33 10⁻⁵

       F = - 3.53 10⁵ N

The negative sign indicates that the force is exerted against the bullet

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Scientists measure the time between the arrival of an earthquake's __P____ and ___S____ waves to help determine the distance between the recording seismograph and the earthquake epicenter.

Explanation:

P- (compressional) and S- (shear) waves produced in earthquakes travel at different speeds. P waves are faster than S waves and hence will be detected first by a seismograph after an earthquake. The further away a seismograph is from the epicenter of an earthquake,  the longer the time difference between the two (2) waves will be.

Using several, at least 3, seismographs located at different geoghraphical locations and detecting earthquakes, geologists can extrapolate the epicenter of an earthquake using the time differences in arrivals of the two waves in each of the seismographs, using the mathematics of triangulation.
