A space vehicle is traveling at 5425 km/h relative to the Earth when the exhausted rocket motor (mass 4m) is disengaged and sent

backward with a speed of 81 km/h relative to the command module (mass m). What is the speed of the command module relative to Earth just after the separation

Answer:

V_{cE}=1489m/s

Explanation:

Given data

Space vehicle speed=5425 km/h relative to earth

The rocket motor speed=81 km/h  and mass 4m

The command has mass m

From the conservation of momentum as the system isolated

p_{i}=p_{f}\\

Since the motion in on direction we can drop the unit vector direction

MV_{i}=4mV_{mE}+mV_{CE}

Where M is the mass of space vehicle which equals to sum of the motors mass and command mass.

The velocity of the motor relative to the earth equals the velocity of the motor relative to command plus the velocity of the command relative to earth

V_{mE}=V_{mc}+V_{cE}

Where Vmc is the velocity of motor relative to command

This yields

5mV_{i}=4m(V_{mc}+V_{cE})+mV_{cE}\\5V_{i}=4V_{mc}+5V_{cE}

Substitute the given values

V_{cE}=\frac{5V_{i}-4V_{mc}}{5}\\ V_{cE}=5425*\frac{1000}{60*60}(m/s)-\frac{4}{5}*81\frac{1000}{60*60}(m/s)\\  V_{cE}=1489m/s

A migrating robin flies due north with a speed of 12 m/s relative to the air. The air moves due east with a speed of 6.8 m/s rel
Svetach [21]

I'm assuming the question is what is the robin's speed relative to to the ground...

Create an equation that describes its relative motion.

rVg = rVa + aVg


Substitute values.

rVg = 12 m/s [N] + 6.8 m/s [E]


Use vector addition.

| rVg | = √ | rVa |² + | aVg |²

| rVg | = √ 144 m²/s² + 46.24 m²/s²

| rVg | = √ 19<u>0</u>.24 m²/s²

| rVg | = 1<u>3</u>.78 m/s


Find direction.

tanФ = aVg / rVa

tanФ = 6.8 m/s / 12 m/s

Ф = 29°


Therefore, the velocity of the robin relative to the ground is 14 m/s [N29°E]

Answer:

a

The time it would take the beef to reach a temperature of 0⁰C is t= 662 sec = 11.93 min

b)

The time it would take to heat the beef to uniform temperature of 80⁰C is

t = 365 sec =5.93 min

c

 Efficient absorption of Microwave power is in regions of liquid water . Hence if the food or the microwave irradiation  is not uniform, the power will be absorbed non-uniformly, resulting in a non-uniform temperature rise. Defrost region will absorb more energy per unit volume than frozen region.if food is of low thermal conductivity, there will be insufficient time for heat conduction to make the temperature more uniform.Use of low power allows more time for conduction to occur.
