An astronaut orbits planet Y in her spaceship. To remain in orbit at 410km above the planet's center, she maintains a speed of 6

8 m/s. What is the mass of planet Y? Note: the constant of universal gravity (G) equals 6.674 × 10-11 N ⋅ m2/kg2.

Formula for orbital speed, v =  √(GM/R)

Where G is the universal gravitational constant, M = Central Mass,

R = Distance between centers of Mass.

Given.  v = 68 m/s, M = ? , R = 410 km = 410000 m., G = 6.674 * 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²

68 = √(GM/R)

68 = √(6.674 * 10⁻¹¹ * M/410000)

68² =  (6.674 * 10⁻¹¹ * M)/410000

(68²  * 410000) / 6.674 * 10⁻¹¹    = M

2.84 × 10¹⁹    = M

Mass of Planet Y =  2.84 × 10¹⁹ kg

A train starting from rest picks up a speed of 20 m/s in 20 s while travelling on a straight path. It continues to move at the s
Andrej [43]

Answer:

1300 m

Explanation:

As the path is straight, so the speed is equivalent to velocity. Now. assuming that the acceleration and deceleration of the train are constant. So, change of velocity with respect to time for acceleration as well as deceleration is constant. Hence, the slope of the speed-time graph is constant for the time of acceleration as well as deceleration. The speed for the time from 20 s to 70 s is constant, so slope for this interval of time is zero. The speed-time graph is shown in the figure.

The total distance covered by the train during the entire journey is the area of the speed-time graph.

Area=\frac{1}{2}(20\times 20)+ 50\times 20+\frac{1}{2}(20\times 10)

=200+1000+100

=1300

As velocity is in m/s and time is in s so the unit of area is m

Hence, the total distance is  1300m.
