12. Unmanned Space Probe A 2500 kg unmanned space probe is moving in a straight line at a constant speed of 300 m/s. Control roc

k- ets on the space probe execute a burn in which a thrust of 3000 N acts for 65.0 s. (a) What is the change in the magnitude of the probe’s translational momentum if the thrust is backward, forward, or di- rectly sideways? (b) What is the change in kinetic energy under the same three conditions? Assume that the mass of the ejected burn products is negligible compared to the mass of the space probe.

Answer:

a) Backward - \Delta p = - 195000\,kg\cdot \frac{m}{s}, Forward - \Delta p = + 195000\,kg\cdot \frac{m}{s}, Directly sideways - \Delta p = \pm 195000\,kg\cdot \frac{m}{s}, b) Backward - \Delta K = -50895000\,J, Forward - \Delta K = + 66105000\,J, Directly sideways - \Delta K = + 7605000\,J.

Explanation:

a) All scenarios are analyzed by means of the Principle of Momentum Conservation and the Impact Theorem.

Case I - Backward

\Delta p = -(3000\,N)\cdot (65.0\,s)

\Delta p = - 195000\,kg\cdot \frac{m}{s}

Case II - Forward

\Delta p = +(3000\,N)\cdot (65.0\,s)

\Delta p = + 195000\,kg\cdot \frac{m}{s}

Case III - Directly sideways

\vec p _{2}-\vec p_{1} = 0\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s}\cdot i \pm 195000\, \,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s}\cdot j

The magnitude of the change of the probe's translational momentum is:

\Delta p = \pm 195000\,kg\cdot \frac{m}{s}

b) The change in kinetic energy is given by the Work-Energy Theorem:

Case I - Backward

The final speed of the probe is:

v= 300\,\frac{m}{s}-\left(\frac{3000\,N}{2500\,kg}\right)\cdot (65\,s)

v = 222\,\frac{m}{s}

The change in kinetic energy is:

\Delta K = \frac{1}{2} \cdot (2500\,kg)\cdot \left[(222\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2}-(300\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2} \right]

\Delta K = -50895000\,J

Case II - Forward

The final speed of the probe is:

v= 300\,\frac{m}{s}+\left(\frac{3000\,N}{2500\,kg}\right)\cdot (65\,s)

v = 378\,\frac{m}{s}

The change in kinetic energy is:

\Delta K = \frac{1}{2} \cdot (2500\,kg)\cdot \left[(378\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2}-(300\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2} \right]

\Delta K = + 66105000\,J

Case III - Directly sideways

The final speed of the probe in the direction perpendicular to the motion line is:

v= 0\,\frac{m}{s}+\left(\frac{3000\,N}{2500\,kg}\right)\cdot (65\,s)

v = 78\,\frac{m}{s}

The change in kinetic energy is:

\Delta K = \frac{1}{2} \cdot (2500\,kg)\cdot \left[(300\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2} + (78\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2} -(300\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2} \right]

\Delta K = + 7605000\,J

Un atleta de 70 kg de masa que ha efectuado un salto de altura cae una vez que ha
Allushta [10]

Answer:

a) the elastic force of the pole directed upwards and the force of gravity with dissects downwards

Explanation:

The forces on the athlete are

a) at this moment the athlete presses the garrolla against the floor, therefore it acquires a lot of elastic energy, which is absorbed by the athlete to rise and gain potential energy,

therefore the forces are the elastic force of the pole directed upwards and the force of gravity with dissects downwards

b) when it falls, in this case the only force to act is batrachium by the planet, this is a projectile movement for very high angles

c) When it reaches the floor, it receives an impulse that opposes the movement created by the mat. The attractive force is the attraction of gravity.

If you are given the mass of an object in pounds, the time in seconds, and the distance in feet, what must you do before you can
Alexandra [31]

Answer: First you must convert pound in kilogram, and feet in meter

Explanation:

To calculate momentum we use .

p=m*V

mass-m

speed-V

distance and time are used to calculate velocity(speed)

You are given :

 mass- in pounds

for distance - in feet

before you do any calculation first you have to convert pounds in kilograms

and feet in meters.

2. A portion of the body receives 0.15 mGy from radiation with a quality factor Q = 6 and 0.22 mGy from radiation with Q = 10. (
DiKsa [7]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

D_1=0.15mGy

D_2=0.22mGy

Q_1=6

Q_2=10

a.We have to find the total dose

Total dose=D=D_1+D_2

Using the formula then, we get

D=0.15+0.22

D=0.37mGy

b.We have to find the total dose equivalent

Total dose equivalent=H=D_1Q_1+D_2Q_2

Using the formula

H=0.15(6)+0.22(10)

H=3.1mSv

Which describes acceleration involving only a change in direction?
Viefleur [7K]
If we consider any system moving with u<span>niform circular motion we can notice that the MAGNITUDE of the accelaration remains constant. However,  there is a change in the direction of the acceleration at every instant of time .

 As the object moves through the circle the acceleration changes its direction always pointing to the center of the circle.</span>
