People hoping to travel to other worlds are faced with huge challenges. One of the biggest is the time required for a journey. T

he nearest star is 4.1×1016m 4.1 × 10 16 m away. Suppose you had a spacecraft that could accelerate at 1.5 g g for two thirds of a year, then continue at a constant speed. (This is far beyond what can be achieved with any known technology.)How long would it take you to reach the nearest star to earth?

1. What are the two quantities involved when calculating MOMENTUM?
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Mass and Velocity

Explanation:

Momentum = Mass  X Velocity

or p=m' x v

since in physics p is quantity momentum and m stands for mass and v stands for velocity.

Hope this helps :)

The ballistic pendulum is a device used to measure the speed of a projectile such as a bullet. The projectile of mass m is fired
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

Relation between initial speed of bullet and height h is given as

v = \frac{m + M}{m}\sqrt{2gh}

Explanation:

As we know that system of block and bullet swings up to height h after collision

So we have

(m + M)gh = \frac{1}{2}(m + M)v_1^2

so we have

v_1 = \sqrt{2gh}

so speed of the block + bullet just after the impact is given by above equation

Now we also know that there is no force on the system of bullet + block in the direction of motion

So we can use momentum conservation

mv = (m + M)v_1

now we have

v = \frac{m + M}{m}\sqrt{2gh}

__________ is the measure of the amount of disordered in a system
kolezko [41]

Entropy is the measure of the amount of disordered in a system.

<u>Explanation:</u>

In 1850, Entropy introduction by the German physicist Rudolf Clausius refers a measurement of the system's thermal energy in unit temperature. It is not for useful work because the work originates from ordered molecular motions. And, this also measures the molecular disturbance or randomness of the system.

The concept behind this provides deep view into spontaneous changes in many everyday phenomena’s. The idea of entropy is a mathematical way of coding an intuitive idea whose processes are impossible, and not violate the basic principle of energy conservation.
