(a) Determine the required delta-v, Ave, to the nearest m/s, to reach a circular 500 km altitude equatorial prograde (eastward)

orbit from a launch site on the Equator of the Earth. Assume the required velocity change is applied instantaneously at launch and neglect the effects of drag and any perturbation forces other than central gravity (b) If one instead wants to launch from the same Equatorial site into a circular 500 km altitude polar orbit, determine the required delta-v, Avp, to the nearest m/s.

Answer:

a)    v₁ = 8.20 10³ m / s , b)     v₁’= 8.4 10³ m / s

Explanation:

a) For this exercise we can use energy conservation, in two points

Initial. On the earth's surface

             Em₀ = K + U = ½ m v₁² - G m Me / Re²

Final. In the orbit at a height of h = 500 10³m

             Em_{f} = K + U = ½ m v₂² - G m Me / (Re+h)²

            Em₀ = Em_{f}

            ½ m v₁² - G m Me / Re² = ½ m v₂² - G m Me / (Re+h)²

           ½ v₁² - ½ v₂² = G Me (1 / Re² - 1 / (Re + h)²)

To find the speed of the rocket in orbit we use Newton's sunga law, where force is the force of gravitation

              F = m a

The acceleration is centripetal

            a = v² / r

            G m Me / (Re+h) 2 = m v2 / (Re+h)

            v₂² = G Me / (Re + h)

  Let's calculate

             v² = √ (6.67 10⁻¹¹ 5.98 10²⁴ / (6.37 10⁶ +0.5 10⁶)

             v² = √ 58.05909 10⁶

             v₂ = 7.62 10³ m / s

Now we can find the clearance speed (v1)

             v₁² = 2 G Me (1 / Re2 - 1 / (Re + h) 2) + v₂²

             

Let's calculate

            v₁² = 2 6.67 10⁻¹¹ 5.98 10²⁴ (1 / 6.37 10⁶ - 1 / 6.87 10⁶) + 58.059 10⁶

            v₁² = 0.91145 10⁷ + 5.8059 10⁷

            v₁ = √ 67.172 10⁶

            v₁ = 8.20 10³ m / s

b) If the same place is launched into a polar orbit, the fundamental change is the distance that we can enter using the Pythagorean theorem.

               

              h’= √ 500 + 5002 = 500 √2

              h’= √ 2 0.5 10⁶ m

              Re + h’= 6.37 10⁶ + √2 0.5 10⁶

               Re + h’= 7.077 10⁶ m

Calculate

             v₁²’= 2 6.67 10⁻¹¹ 5.98 10²⁴ (1 / 6.37 10⁶ - 1 / 7.077 10⁶) + 58.059 10⁶

             v₁²’= 1,251 10⁷ + 5,8059 10⁷

             v₁’= 8.4 10³ m / s

A truck of mass 200kg rests on an inclined plane hindered from rolling down the surface by a storing sprint whose force constant
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

1.92 J

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass (m) = 200 Kg

Spring constant (K) = 10⁶ N/m

Workdone =?

Next, we shall determine the force exerted on the spring. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) = 200 Kg

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Force (F) =?

F = m × g

F = 200 × 9.8

F = 1960 N

Next we shall determine the extent to which the spring stretches. This can be obtained as follow:

Spring constant (K) = 10⁶ N/m

Force (F) = 1960 N

Extention (e) =?

F = Ke

1960 = 10⁶ × e

Divide both side by 10⁶

e = 1960 / 10⁶

e = 0.00196 m

Finally, we shall determine energy (Workdone) on the spring as follow:

Spring constant (K) = 10⁶ N/m

Extention (e) = 0.00196 m

Energy (E) =?

E = ½Ke²

E = ½ × 10⁶ × (0.00196)²

E = 1.92 J

Therefore, the Workdone on the spring is 1.92 J

If a particle undergoes shm with amplitude 0.21 m, what is the total distance it travels in one period?
Ymorist [56]
If a particle undergoes simple harmonic motion with an amplitude of 0.21 meters, this means that the maximum displacement of the particle from its resting position is 0.21. For one period, it traveled from its starting position which is twice the amplitude and then back to its original position which is another distance that is twice the amplitude as well. Therefore, the total distance it traveled is 2*amplitude + 2*amplitude = 2*0.21 + 2*0.21 = 0.42 + 0.42 = 0.84 meters.

A hovering mosquito is hit by a raindrop that is 45 times as massive and falling at 8.2 m/s , a typical raindrop speed. How fast
netineya [11]

Answer:

The speed of the raindrop  and the mosquito is 8.02 m/s.

Explanation:

mass of mosquito = m

mass of drop = 45 m

initial velocity of mosquito, u = 0 m/s  

initial velocity of drop,  u' = 8.2 m/s

During the inelastic collision, the momentum of the system is conserved.  

Let the speed of rain drop and the mosquito is v.

Use the conservation of momentum

m x u + 45 m x u' = (m +  45 m) v

m x 0 + 45 m x 8.2 = 46 m x v

v = 8.02 m/s
