Answer:

6.37 x 10³ Km

Explanation:

given,

Radius of earth = 6,370,000 m

we know,

1 km = 1000 m

1 m = 0.001 Km

6,370,000 m =  6,370,000 x 0.001

                       = 6,370 Km

The number 6,370 has 3 significant figure.

To transform this to an exponential number, it is necessary to move the decimal to the left so there is only one digit in front of the decimal point.

Representing the given number in scientific notation

      = 6.37 x 10³ Km

slader Question: A Model Rocket Is Launched Straight Upward With An Initial Speed Of 50m/s. Iit Accelerates With A Constant Upwa
xenn [34]

Answer:

Maximum height reached by the rocket is

y_{max} = 308 m

total time of the motion of rocket is given as

T = 16.44 s

Explanation:

Initial speed of the rocket is given as

v_i = 50 m/s

acceleration of the rocket is given as

a = 2 m/s^2

engine stops at height h = 150 m

so the final speed of the rocket at this height is given as

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

v_f^2 - 50^2 = 2(2)(150)

v_f = 55.68 m/s

so maximum height reached by the rocket is given as the height where its final speed becomes zero

so we will have

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

0 - 55.68^2 = 2(-9.81)(y - 150)

y_{max} = 308 m

Now the total time of the motion of rocket is given as

1) time to reach the height of 150 m

v_f - v_i = at

55.68 - 50 = 2 t

t_1 = 2.84 s

2) time to reach ground from this height

\Delta y = v_y t + \frac{1}{2}gt^2

-150 = 55.68 t - \frac{1}{2}(9.81) t^2

t_2 = 13.6 s

so total time of the motion of rocket is given as

T = 13.6 + 2.84 = 16.44 s

Basile [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

When it was approaching, the wavelength is blue-shifted and the rest wavelength when it was receding the wavelength is redshifted.

Any planet is an extremely faint light source compared to its parent star. Comets are considered as the most primitive objects in the Solar System.
