Answer:

The Sun is the major source of energy for organisms and the ecosystems of which they are a part. Producers such as plants, algae, and cyanobacteria use the energy from sunlight to make organic matter from carbon dioxide and water. This establishes the beginning of energy flow through almost all food webs.

Assume you have a rocket in Earth orbit and want to go to Mars. The required change in velocity is ΔV≈9.6km/s . There are two op

Nostrana [21]

Answer: Part 1: Propellant Fraction (MR) = 8.76

Part 2: Propellant Fraction (MR) = 1.63

Explanation: The Ideal Rocket Equation is given by:

Δv = $v_{ex}.ln(\frac{m_{f}}{m_{e}} )$

Where:

$v_{ex}$ is relationship between exhaust velocity and specific impulse

$\frac{m_{f}}{m_{e}}$ is the porpellant fraction, also written as MR.

The relationship $v_{ex}$ is: $v_{ex} = g_{0}.Isp$

To determine the fraction:

Δv = $v_{ex}.ln(\frac{m_{f}}{m_{e}} )$

$ln(MR) = \frac{v}{v_{ex}}$

Knowing that change in velocity is Δv = 9.6km/s and $g_{0}$ = 9.81m/s²

Note: Velocity and gravity have different measures, so to cancel them out, transform km in m by multiplying velocity by 10³.

Part 1: Isp = 450s

$ln(MR) = \frac{v}{v_{ex}}$

ln(MR) = $\frac{9.6.10^{3}}{9.81.450}$

ln (MR) = 2.17

MR = $e^{2.17}$

MR = 8.76

Part 2: Isp = 2000s

$ln(MR) = \frac{v}{v_{ex}}$

ln (MR) = $\frac{9.6.10^{3}}{9.81.2.10^{3}}$

ln (MR) = 0.49

MR = $e^{0.49}$

MR = 1.63

A spring with a constant of 92N/m is compressed 2.8 cm. How much potential energy is stored in the spring?

Arada [10]

Answer:

0.036J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Spring constant , K = 92N/m

Compression = 2.8cm = 0.028m

Unknown:

Potential energy = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem;

P.E = $\frac{1}{2}$ K e²

K is the spring constant

e is the compression

so;

P.E = $\frac{1}{2}$ x 92 x 0.028² = 0.036J

Light travels through air faster than it travels through water. How would

Airida [17]

Answer:

The fastest thing in the whole universe is the speed of light in a vacuum (like outer space!), clocking in at a great 2.99 x 108 m/s. Light travels in waves, and we call this traveling propagation. Propagation of waves has both a speed and a direction, called the velocity. The velocity of light changes depends on the material it travels through.

I hope it is helpful. Please mark as brilliant
