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

Which describes a train’s acceleration if it changes speed from 25 m/s to 10 m/s in 240 s? positive acceleration no acceleration
OLEGan [10]

To understand acceleration, you need to know speed and velocity.

Why?

Acceleration is the change in velocity, and the velocity equation is:

velocity = distance / time     Units: (m/s)

If a change in position means an object has a velocity, then that means that a change in velocity has an acceleration (I recommend you look at the graphs, it will help a lot to understand the relationship between each).

Now that we have some background, lets use it to answer the problem!

The change in velocity is from 25 m/s to 10 m/s, and we have a time. Lets plug it into the (average) acceleration equation so we can visualize it better!

The symbol delta means "change" : Δ

a = Δv / Δt

expanded to:

a = vf - vi / tf - ti  

(vf = velocity final, vi = velocity initial, tf = time final, ti = time initial)

So if the train's speed went from 25 m/s to 10 m/s, then that means that 10 m/s is our final velocity and 25 m/s is the initial:

a = 10 - 25 / 240

a = -15 / 240

a = -0.0625 m/s^2

Since we ended up with a negative number, it means that the train has a negative acceleration!!!!!

The fast way to do this:

25 m/s is bigger than 10 m/s, so that means that to go from 25 m/s to 10 m/s you have to slow down--otherwise known as putting on your brakes. So if the change in speed is negative then the acceleration will be negative.

In other words, if your final speed is less than your initial speed then your acceleration would be negative.

Sorry for the long explanation! I hope you never struggle with this again though!

Hope it helped,

A rocket at rest with a mass of 942 kg is acted on by an average net force of 6,731 N upwards for 21 s. What is the final veloci
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Givens

m = 942

F = 6731

t = 21 seconds

vi = 0

vf = ?

Formula

F = m * (vf -  vi )  / t

Solution

6731 = 942*(vf - 0)/21          Multiply both sides by 21

6731 * 21 = 942*vf

141351 = 942*vf                   Divide by 942

141351/942 = vf

vf = 151 m/s

Four identical particles of mass 0.980 kg each are placed at the vertices of a 4.14 m x 4.14 m square and held there by four mas
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

a) The rotational inertia when it passes through the midpoints of opposite sides and lies in the plane of the square is 16.8 kg m²

b) I = 50.39 kg m²

c) I = 16.8 kg m²

Explanation:

a) Given data:

m = 0.98 kg

a = 4.14 * 4.14

The moment of inertia is:

I=mr^{2} \\r=\frac{a}{2} \\I=m(a/2)^{2} \\I=\frac{ma^{2} }{4}

For 4 particles:

I=4(\frac{ma^{2} }{4} )=ma^{2} =0.98*(4.14)^{2} =16.8kgm^{2}

b) Distance from top left mass = x = a/2

Distance from bottom left mass = x = a/2

Distance from top right mass = x = √5 (a/2)

The total moment of inertia is:

I=m(\frac{a}{2} )^{2} +m(\frac{a}{2} )^{2}+m(\frac{\sqrt{5a} }{2} )^{2}+m(\frac{\sqrt{5a} }{2} )^{2}=\frac{12ma^{2} }{4} =3ma^{2} =3*0.98*(4.14)^{2} =50.39kgm^{2}

c)

I=2m(\frac{m}{\sqrt{2} } )^{2} =ma^{2} =0.98*(4.14)^{2} =16.8kgm^{2}
