En la Tierra un volcán puede expulsar rocas verticalmente hasta una altura máxima H. A) ¿A qué altura (en términos de H) llegarí

an es- tas rocas si un volcán en Marte las expulsara con la misma velocidad inicial? La aceleración debida a la gravedad en Marte es de 3.71 m>s2, y se puede despreciar la resistencia del aire en ambos planetas. B) Si en la Tierra las rocas están en el aire un tiempo T, ¿por cuánto tiempo (en términos de T) estarán en el aire en Marte?

A) 2.64 H

The maximum height that the expelled rock can reach can be found by using the equation:

v^2-u^2 = 2gd

where

v = 0 is the velocity at the maximum height

u is the initial velocity

g is the acceleration of gravity

d is the maximum height

Solving for d,

d=\frac{-u^2}{2g}

We see that the maximum heigth is inversely proportional to g. On the Earth,

d=H and g=g_e = -9.81 m/s^2

So we can write:

\frac{H}{H'}=\frac{g_m}{g_e}

where H' is the maximum height reached on Mars, and g_m = -3.71 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity on Mars. Solving for H',

H' = \frac{g_e}{g_m}H = \frac{-9.81}{3.71}H=2.64 H

B) 2.64T

The time after which the rock reaches the maximum height can be found by using

v=u+gt

where

v = 0 is the velocity at the maximum height

u is the initial velocity

Solving for t,

t=\frac{v-u}{g}

The total time of the motion is twice this value, so:

t=2\frac{v-u}{g}

So we see that it is inversely proportional to g.

On the Earth, t = T. So we can write:

\frac{T}{T'}=\frac{g_m}{g_E}

where T' is the total time of the motion on Mars. Solving for T',

T' = \frac{g_e}{g_m}T=\frac{-9.81}{-3.71}T=2.64T

Why is it important to study electromagnetic waves?
labwork [276]
The study of EM is essential to understanding the properties of light, its propagation through tissue, scattering and absorption effects, and changes in the state of polarization. ... Since light travels much faster than sound, detection of the reflected EM radiation is performed with interferometry.

If Anisa swims 85.4 yards in five minutes, how many meters will she swim in 70.0 seconds? ( use the metric system for this quest
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer : 18.22 meters

Explanation:

1 yard. = 0.9144 meters

85.4 yards = 78.08976 meters

1 minute = 60 seconds

5 minutes = 300 seconds

Speed of Anisa = distance / time

Speed of Anisa = 78.08976 meters / 300 seconds

Speed of Anisa = 0.26029 meters / second.

Distance travelled in 70 seconds = speed * 70

Distance travelled in 70 seconds = 0.26029 * 70 = 18.22 meters

How many joules of work are done against a truck when a force of 50 N pushes it 1 kilometer away
ELEN [110]

Answer:

Work = 50,000 J

Explanation:

Work = force * distance

Given that,

  • force = 50N
  • Distance = 1km = 1000m

Work = 50 * 1000

Work = 50,000 J
