Time before projectile hits wall

= 88.2 m / 29.4 m/s = 3 seconds

Vertical velocity of projectile after three seconds

= 3*9.8 = 29.4 m/s

Horizontal velocity of projectile after three seconds, assuming no air resistance

= 29.4 m/s  (given)

Conclusion:

velocity of projectile when it hits the wall

= < 29.4, -29.4> m/s

= sqrt(29.4^2+29.4^2) m/s east-bound at 45 degrees below horizontal

= 41.58 m/s east-bound at 45 degrees below horizontal.

True

in physics the dimensions of space are:
1. Height
2. Width
3. Depth
4. Time
5. Kaluza - this is the combination of gravity and electromagnetism
6.-10. Other theories
11. The M-theory.


As the current studies suggest, the theory of everything or M-theory claims that there are currently 11 dimensions in the universe, unique for each world and that our word is but the complexities of strings.

Planet-X has a mass of 4.74×1024 kg and a radius of 5870 km. The First Cosmic Speed i.e. the speed of a satellite on a low lying
Tanya [424]

10,378.82 m/s is the second cosmic speed.

69,801 km is the radius of the synchronous orbit of a satellite.

Given

Mass of planet = 4.74 × 10^{24} kg

Radius of planet = 5870 km = 5870000m

First Cosmic speed = 7.34 km/sec

1) Second cosmic speed i.e. the minimum speed required for a satellite to break free permanently from the planet is also known as the escape velocity of a satellite.

It can be calculated by

v = √2GM/r where,

v= Escape velocity of the satellite

G = Gravitational constant

M = Mass of planet

r = Radius of planet

v = √[( 2 x 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ x 4.74 x 10²⁴) / (5870 x 10³)]

v = 10,378.82 m/s

2) Speed of the satellite at the given period

v = 2πr/T where,

T= Time period of rotation = 16.6 × 3600 seconds

r = v×T/2π

r = (7,338.93 x 16.6 x 3600 s) / (2π)

r = 69,801 km

Hence

The <u>Second Cosmic Speed</u> i.e. the minimum speed required for a satellite to break free permanently from the planet is 10,378.82 m/s.

And the radius of the synchronous orbit of a satellite is 69,801 km.

To study the properties of various particles, you can accelerate the particles with electric fields. A positron is a particle wi
maria [59]

Answer:

a) a = 5.03x10¹³ m/s²

b) V_{f} = 4.4 \cdot 10^{5} m/s

Explanation:    

a) The acceleration of the positron can be found as follows:

F = q*E    (1)

Also,

F = ma    (2)

By entering equation (1) into (2), we have:

a = \frac{F}{m} = \frac{qE}{m}

<u>Where:</u>

F: is the electric force

m: is the particle's mass = 9.1x10⁻³¹ kg

q: is the charge of the positron = 1.6x10⁻¹⁹ C    

E: is the electric field = 286 N/C

a = \frac{qE}{m} = \frac{1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} C*286 N/C}{9.1 \cdot 10^{-31} kg} = 5.03 \cdot 10^{13} m/s^{2}

b) The positron's speed can be calculated using the following equation:

V_{f} = V_{0} + at

<u>Where</u>:

V_{f}: is the final speed =?

V_{0}: is the initial speed =0

t: is the time = 8.70x10⁻⁹ s

V_{f} = V_{0} + at = 0 + 5.03 \cdot 10^{13} m/s^{2}*8.70 \cdot 10^{-9} s = 4.4 \cdot 10^{5} m/s

I hope it helps you!
