A) 0.189 N
The weight of the person on the asteroid is equal to the gravitational force exerted by the asteroid on the person, at a location on the surface of the asteroid:
where
G is the gravitational constant
8.7×10^13 kg is the mass of the asteroid
m = 130 kg is the mass of the man
R = 2.0 km = 2000 m is the radius of the asteroid
Substituting into the equation, we find
B) 2.41 m/s
In order to orbit just above the surface of the asteroid (r=R), the centripetal force that keeps the astronaut in orbit must be equal to the gravitational force acting on the astronaut:
where
v is the speed of the astronaut
Solving the formula for v, we find the minimum speed at which the astronaut should launch himself and then orbit the asteroid just above the surface:
Answer:
In an elastic collision, the momentum is conserved and the mechanical energy is conserved too.
Explanation:
There are two types of collisions:
- Elastic collision: in an elastic collision, the total momentum before and after the collision is conserved; also, the total mechanical energy before and after the collision is conserved.
- Inelastic collision: in an inelastic collision, the total momentum before and after the colllision is conserved, while the total mechanical energy is not conserved (in fact, part of the energy is converted into other forms of energy such that thermal energy, due to the presence of frictional forces)
Answer:
the correct one is D,
Ultraviolet, x-ray, gamma ray
Explanation:
Electromagnetism radiation are waves of energy that is expressed by the Planck relationship
E = h f
where h is the plank constant and f the frequency of the radiation.
Also the speed of light is
c = λ f
we substitute
E = h c /λ
therefore to damage the cells of the body radiation of appreciable energy is needed
microwave radiation has an energy of 10⁻⁵ eV
infrared radiation E = 10⁻² eV
visible radiation E = 1 to 3 eV
radiation Uv E = 3 to 6 eV
X-ray E = 10 eV
gamma rays E = 10 5 eV
therefore we see that the high energy radiation is gamma rays, x-rays and ultraviolet light.
When checking the answers, the correct one is D
