In 1865, jules verne proposed sending men to the moon by firing a space capsule from a 220-m-long cannon with final speed of 10.

97 km/s. what would have been the unrealistically large acceleration experienced by the space travelers during their launch? (a human can stand an acceleration of 15g for a short time.)

I'm going to assume that the 10.97 km/s is the velocity at the end of the cannon.

vi = 0
d = 220m
vf = 10.97 km/s = 10970 m/s
a = ???

vf^2 = vi^2 + 2*a*d
10970^2 = 0 + 2*a*220
10970^2 / 440 = a You are right this is a pretty big number.
2.73 * 10^5 = a

Define potentiol energy , kenetic energy.​
Pani-rosa [81]

Potential energy is stored energy. For example, if a bowling ball is on top of a giant hill, we say it has potential energy because it has the potential to do work which is to roll down the hill.

Kinetic energy is the energy of movement so once that ball rolls down that hill, that potential energy is converted to kinetic energy.

What is the momentum of an object in splace
forsale [732]

Answer:

The total momentum of the universe is always the same and is equal to zero. The total momentum of an isolated system never changes. Momentum can be transferred from one body to another.

Momentum quantifies how likely an object is to stay in motion. Momentum can also be explained using the equation, p=mv, where p is equal to momentum, m is equal to mass, and v is equal to velocity.
