The answer to your question will be C. because they are very inexpensive and are readily available but they will eventually deplete because we use them faster than they can be produced we use what has been building up.

AVprozaik [17]

<h2>Answer:</h2><h2>The acceleration of the meteoroid due to the gravitational force exerted by the planet = 12.12 m/ $s^{2}$ </h2>

Explanation:

A meteoroid is in a circular orbit 600 km above the surface of a distant planet.

Mass of the planet = mass of earth = 5.972 x $10^{24}$ Kg

Radius of the earth = 90% of earth radius = 90% 6370 = 5733 km

The acceleration of the meteoroid due to the gravitational force exerted by the planet = ?

By formula, g = $\frac{GM}{r^{2} }$

where g is the acceleration due to the gravity

G is the universal gravitational constant = 6.67 x $10^{-11}$ $m^{3} kg^{-1} s^{-2}$

M is the mass of the planet

r is the radius of the planet

Substituting the values, we get

g = $\frac{(6.67 * 10^{-11}) (5.972 * 10^{24}) }{5733^{2} }$

g = 12.12 m/ $s^{2}$

The acceleration of the meteoroid due to the gravitational force exerted by the planet = 12.12 m/ $s^{2}$

A car travels 200km in 3.0 hours. Determine the average velocity of the car

Masja [62]

Answer:

<h2>66.67 km/hr</h2>

Explanation:

The average velocity of the car can be found by using the formula

$a = \frac{d}{t } \\$

d is the distance

t is the time taken

From the question we have

$a = \frac{200}{3} \\ = 66.66666...$

We have the final answer as

<h3>66.67 km/hr</h3>

Hope this helps you

022 (part 1 of 4) 10.0 points A ball is thrown vertically upward with a speed of 24.5 m/s. How high does it rise? The accelerati

svetoff [14.1K]

1)

Answer:

Part 1)

H = 30.6 m

Part 2)

t = 2.5 s

Part 3)

t = 2.5 s

Part 4)

$v_f = 24.5 m/s$

Explanation:

Part 1)

initial speed of the ball upwards

$v_i = 24.5 m/s$

so maximum height of the ball is given by

$H = \frac{v_i^2}{2g}$

$H = \frac{24.5^2}{2(9.80)}$

$H = 30.6 m$

Part 2)

As we know that final speed will be zero at maximum height

so we will have

$v_f - v_i = at$

$0 - 24.5 = (-9.8)t$

$t = 2.5 s$

Part 3)

Since the time of ascent of ball is same as time of decent of the ball

so here ball will same time to hit the ground back

so here it is given as

t = 2.5 s

Part 4)

since the acceleration due to earth will be same during its return path as well as the time of the motion is also same

so here its final speed will be same as that of initial speed

so we have

$v_f = 24.5 m/s$

2)

Answer:

a = 9.76 m/s/s

Explanation:

As we know that the object is released from rest

so the displacement of the object in vertical direction is given as

$y = \frac{1}{2}at^2$

$4.88 = \frac{1}{2}a(1^2)$

$a = 9.76 m/s^2$

3)

Answer:

v = 29.7 m/s

Explanation:

acceleration of the rocket is given as

$a = 90 m/s^2$

time taken by the rocket

t = 0.33 min

final speed of the rocket is given as

$v_f = v_i + at$

$v_f = 0 + (90)(0.33)$

$v_f = 29.7 m/s$

4)

Answer:

Part 1)

y = 25.95 m

Part 2)

d = 6.72 m

Explanation:

Part 1)

As it took t = 2.3 s to hit the water surface

so here we will have

$y = \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

$y = \frac{1}{2}(9.81)(2.3^2)$

$y = 25.95 m$

Part 2)

Distance traveled by it in horizontal direction is given as

$d = v_x t$

$d = 2.92 \times 2.3$

$d = 6.72 m$
