Exoplanets (planets outside our solar system) are an active area of modern research. Suppose astronomers find such a planet that

has the same radius as Earth, but is about 10% less massive. Roughly, what acceleration due to gravity would you expect if you were standing on the surface of this new planet?

Answer:

8.829 m/s²

Explanation:

M = Mass of Earth

m = Mass of Exoplanet

g_e = Acceleration due to gravity on Earth = 9.81 m/s²

g = Acceleration due to gravity on Exoplanet

m=M-0.1M\\\Rightarrow m=0.9M

g_e=G\frac{M}{r^2}

g=G\frac{0.9M}{r^2}

Dividing the equations we get

\frac{g}{g_e}=\frac{G\frac{0.9M}{r^2}}{G\frac{M}{r^2}}\\\Rightarrow \frac{g}{g_e}=0.9\\\Rightarrow g=0.9g_e\\\Rightarrow g=0.9\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow g=8.829\ m/s^2

Acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Exoplanet is 8.829 m/s²

El tubo de entrada que suministra presión de aire para operar un gato hidráulico tiene 2 cm de diámetro. El pistón de salida es
Bess [88]

Answer:

La presión neumática para levantar un automóvil de 17,640 newtons es 220,500 pascales.

Explanation:

Asumiendo que la presión (P), medida en pascales, tiene una distribución uniforme sobre la superficie del pistón, se calcula a partir de la siguiente expresion:

P = \frac{F}{A}

Donde:

F - Fuerza motriz, medida en newtons.

A - Área del pistón, medida en metros cuadrados.

La fuerza motriz es equivalente al peso del automóvil. El área del pistón (A), medido en metros cuadrados, es determinado por:

A=\frac{\pi}{4}\cdot D^{2}

Donde D es el diámetro del pistón, medido en metros.

Si D = 0.32\,m y F =17,640\,N, entonces la presión neumática es:

A = \frac{\pi}{4}\cdot (0.32\,m)^{2}

A \approx 0.080\,m^{2}

P = \frac{17,640\,N}{0.080\,m^{2}}

P = 220,500\,Pa

La presión neumática para levantar un automóvil de 17,640 newtons es 220,500 pascales.

A 1-kg iron frying pan is placed on a stove. The pan increases from 20°C to 250°C. If the same amount of heat is added to a pan
Nesterboy [21]

Answer;

The temperature change for the second pan will be lower compared to the temperature change of the first pan

Explanation;

-The quantity of heat is given by multiplying mass by specific heat and by temperature change.

That is; Q = mcΔT

This means; the quantity of heat depends on the mass, specific heat capacity of a substance and also the change in temperature.

-Maintaining the same quantity of heat, with another pan of the same mass and greater specific heat capacity would mean that the change in temperature would be much less lower.

An airplane starts from rest and accelerates at 10.8 m/s2 . what is its speed at the end of a 400 m long runway?
Cloud [144]

The final speed of an airplane is v = 92.95 m/s

The rate of change of position of an object in any direction is known as speed i.e. in other word, Speed is measured as the ratio of distance to the time in which the distance was covered.

Solution-

Here given,

Acceleration a= 10.8 m/s2 .

Displacement (s)= 400m

Then to find final speed of airplane v=?

Therefore from equation of motion can be written as,

v²=u²+ 2as

where, u is initial speed, v is final speed ,a is acceleration and s is displacement of the airplane. Therefore by putting the value of a & s in above equation and (u =0) i.e. the initial speed of airplane is zero.

v²= 2×10.8 m/s²×400m

v²=8640m/s

v=92.95m/s

hence the final speed of airplane v =92.95m/s

A 52 kg child on a swing is travelling at 6 m/s . What is his gravitational potential energy if he has 1000 J of the mechanical
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is "64 J".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Mass,

m = 52 kg

Velocity,

v = 6 m/s

Mechanical energy,

= 1000 J

Now,

The gravitational potential energy will be:

⇒ P.E=1000-\frac{1}{2}mv^2

           =1000-\frac{1}{2}\times 52\times (6)^2

           =1000-26\times 36

           =1000-936

           =64 \ J
