The answer for this problem would be:
Assuming non-relativistic momentum, then you have: 
ΔxΔp = mΔxΔv = h / (4) 
Δv = h / (4πmΔx) 
m ~ 1.67e-27 h ~ 6.62e-34,Δx = 4e-15 --> 
Δv ~ 6.62e-34 / (4π * 1.67e-27 * 4e-15) ~ 7,886,270 m/s ~ 7.89e6 m/s 
That's about 1% of the speed of light, the assumption that it's non-relativistic.

1.A car goes off a cliff horizontally at 49 m/s and falls for 5 seconds
nevsk [136]
#1).  The horizontal speed doesn't change. 
The vertical speed is accelerated by gravity.

a).  Gravity increases the vertical speed by 9.8m/s every sec.
After 5 sec, the car is falling (5x9.8) = <em>49 m/s</em> vertically.

b).  Horizontal:  49m/s !  Wow !  Almost 110 mph. No wonder he went off the cliff.
After 5 seconds, it's still <em>49 m/s</em>.

c). After 5 sec, the horizontal speed and vertical-down speed are both 49 m/s.
The combination results in a velocity that points 45 degrees down from horizontal,
and its magnitude is

     square root of (49² + 49²) = 49 √2 = about <em>69.3 m/s</em> .

Saturn moves in an orbit around the Sun with radius 10 AU. How many degrees does it move on the Celestial in one year? (Hint: Ca
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

B. About 12 degrees

Explanation:

The orbital period is calculated using the following expression:

T = 2π*(\sqrt{\frac{r^3}{Gm}})

Where r is the distance of the planet to the sun, G is the gravitational constant and m is the mass of the sun.

Now, we don't actually need to solve the values of the constants, since we now that the distance from the sun to Saturn is 10 times the distance from the sun to the earth. We now this because 1 AU is the distance from the earth to the sun.

Now, we divide the expression used to calculate the orbital period of Saturn by the expression used to calculate the orbital period of the earth. Notice that the constants will cancel and we will get the rate of orbital periods in terms of the distances to the sun:

\frac{Tsaturn}{Tearth} = \sqrt{\frac{rSaturn^3}{rEarth^3} } = \sqrt{10^3}}

Knowing that the orbital period of the earth is 1 year, the orbital period of Saturn will be \sqrt{10^3}} years, or 31.62 years.

We find the amount of degrees it moves in 1 year:

1year * \frac{360degrees}{31.62years} = 11.38 degrees

or about 12 degrees.

A motorcycle is following a car that is traveling at constant speed on a straight highway. Initially, the car and the motorcycle
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

a) \Delta{t} = 5.39s

b) the motorcycle travels 155 m

Explanation:

Let t_2-t_1 = \Delta{t}, then consider the equation of motion for the motorcycle (accelerated) and for the car (non accelerated):

v_{m2}=v_0+a\Delta{t}\\x+d=(\frac{v_0+v_{m2}}{2} )\Delta{t}\\v_c = v_0 = \frac{x}{\Delta{t}}

where:

v_{m2} is the speed of the motorcycle at time 2

v_{c} is the velocity of the car (constant)

v_{0} is the velocity of the car and the motorcycle at time 1

d is the distance between the car and the motorcycle at time 1

x is the distance traveled by the car between time 1 and time 2

Solving the system of equations:

\left[\begin{array}{cc}car&motorcycle\\x=v_0\Delta{t}&x+d=(\frac{v_0+v_{m2}}{2}}) \Delta{t}\end{array}\right]

v_0\Delta{t}=\frac{v_0+v_{m2}}{2}\Delta{t}-d \\\frac{v_0+v_{m2}}{2}\Delta{t}-v_0\Delta{t}=d\\(v_0+v_{m2})\Delta{t}-2v_0\Delta{t}=2d\\(v_0+v_0+a\Delta{t})\Delta{t}-2v_0\Delta{t}=2d\\(2v_0+a\Delta{t})\Delta{t}-2v_0\Delta{t}=2d\\a\Delta{t}^2=2d\\\Delta{t}=\sqrt{\frac{2d}{a}}=\sqrt{\frac{2*58}{4}}=\sqrt{29}=5.385s

For the second part, we need to calculate x+d, so you can use the equation of the car to calculate x:

x = v_0\Delta{t}= 18\sqrt{29}=96.933m\\then:\\x+d = 154.933
