Answer:
Planet will crash on to the Sun if the tangential velocity becomes zero and Rocket should be fired from Earth's orbit is at 30 m/s and in opposite direction to the Earth orbits the Sun
Explanation:
The orbital velocity of the Earth about the sun is 30 km/s. If we shoot a rocket with 30 km/s with respect to Earth in the opposite direction. Then the two velocity vectors cancel. The resultant velocity would be zero with respect to the Sun. resulting velocity is called as tangential velocity.
Planet will crash on to the Sun if the tangential velocity becomes zero and Rocket should be fired from Earth's orbit is at 30 m/s and in opposite direction to the Earth orbits the Sun
Answer: ∆L = 0.49cm ≈ 0.50cm
Therefore there should be 0.5 cm gap between each piece of steel.
Explanation:
Thermal expansion of steel is the increase in size of steel as a result of increased temperature. It can be represented by the mathematical expression:
∆L = L(k)∆T .....1
Where;
∆L is the change in length
L is the initial length
∆T is the change in temperature
k is the specific Linear expansion coefficient.
Given;
L = 12m
∆T = 50°C - 16°C = 34°C
k (for steel) = 1.2 × 10^-6 /C
Substituting the values into the equation 1
∆L = 12 × 34 × 12×10^-6
∆L = 4896 × 10^-6 m
∆L = 0.49cm ≈ 0.50cm
Therefore there should be 0.5 cm gap between each piece of steel.
To find the work done on the particle, the following is the
solution:
Dw = F dx
W = integral over the path ( F(x) dx)
W = integral from 0 to 1 (e^(-x/5 + 5) dx)
W = -5e^(-x/5 + 5) from 0 to 1
W = 135 J
The work done is 135 J.
