Suppose a rocket ship in deep space moves with constant acceleration equal to 9.80 m/s2, which gives the illusion of normal grav

ity during the flight. (a) If it starts from rest, how long will it take to acquire a speed 12% that of light, which travels at 3.0 × 108 m/s? (b) How far will it travel in so doing?

Answer:

a) 3673469.39 seconds

b) 6.61×10¹⁴ m

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity = 0.12×3×10⁸ m/s

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

Equation of motion

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 0.12\times 3\times 10^8=0+9.8t\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{0.12\times 3\times 10^8}{9.8}=3673469.39\ s

Time taken to reach 12% of light speed is 3673469.39 seconds

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{(0.12\times 3\times 10^8)^2-0^2}{2\times 9.8}\\\Rightarrow s=6.61 \times 10^{14}\ m

The distance it would have to travel is 6.61×10¹⁴ m

9966 [12]

Answer:

2.44156\times 10^{13}\ m^3

29010.53917 m

Explanation:

\rho = Density of asteroid = 2 g/cm³

V = Volume

d = Diameter = 10 km

r = Radius = \dfrac{d}{2}=\dfrac{10}{2}=5\ km

v = Velocity = 11 km/s

H_v = Heat vaporization of water = 2.26\times 10^6\ J/kg

\Delta T = Change in temperature = 100-20

Mass is given by

m=\rho V\\\Rightarrow m=\rho\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3\\\Rightarrow m=2000\dfrac{4}{3}\times \pi\times 5000^3\\\Rightarrow m=1.0472\times 10^{15}\ kg

The kinetic energy is

K=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\Rightarrow K=\dfrac{1}{2}1.0472\times 10^{15}\times 11000^2\\\Rightarrow K=6.33556\times 10^{22}\ J

Heat is given by

Q=mc\Delta T+mH_v\\\Rightarrow 6.33556\times 10^{22}=m\times (4186\times (100-20)+2.26\times 10^6)\\\Rightarrow m=\dfrac{ 6.33556\times 10^{22}}{4186\times (100-20)+2.26\times 10^6}\\\Rightarrow m=2.44156\times 10^{16}\ kg

Mass of water is 2.44156\times 10^{16}\ kg

Volume is \dfrac{2.44156\times 10^{16}}{10^3}=2.44156\times 10^{13}\ m^3

Amount of water is 2.44156\times 10^{13}\ m^3

If it were a cube

h=V^{\dfrac{1}{3}}\\\Rightarrow h=(2.44156\times 10^{13})^{\dfrac{1}{3}}\\\Rightarrow h=29010.53917\ m

The height of the water would be 29010.53917 m
