Answer:

Sputnik I.

Explanation:

The Soviet Union (former) launched the first artificial earth satellite called Sputnik I on October 4, 1957.

It had a diameter of 58 cm and it weighed 83.6 kg. It had an orbital period of 5880 seconds around the earth. It orbited the 11 weeks (officially 3 weeks but then, its battery died and it orbited for 8 weeks before falling back into the earth's atmosphere).

Antonina throws a coin straight up from a height of
vichka [17]

Answer:

s=vt-\frac{1}{2}gt^2

Explanation:

We could use the following suvat equation:

s=vt-\frac{1}{2}gt^2

where

s is the vertical displacement of the coin

v is its final velocity, when it hits the water

t is the time

g is the acceleration of gravity

Taking upward as positive direction, in this problem we have:

s = -1.2 m

g=-9.8 m/s^2

And the coin reaches the water when

t = 1.3 s

Substituting these data, we can find v:

v=\frac{s}{t}+\frac{1}{2}gt=-\frac{1.2}{1.3}+\frac{1}{2}(-9.8)(1.3)=-7.3 m/s

where the negative sign means the direction is downward.

As a train enters the station it slows down from 40 m/s to a 10 m/s in 5 seconds
lora16 [44]

Answer:

See the answers below.

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the following equation of kinematics.

v_{f}=v_{o}-a*t

where:

Vf = final velocity = 10 [m/s]

Vo = initial velocity = 40 [m/s]

t = time = 5 [s]

a = acceleration [m/s²]

Now replacing:

10=40-a*5\\40-10=a*5\\30=5*a\\a=6[m/s^{2}]

Note: The negative sign in the above equation means that the velecity is decreasing.

2)

To solve this second part we must use the following equation of kinematics.

v_{f}^{2} =v_{o}^{2} -2*a*x\\

where:

x = distance [m]

(10)^{2} =(40)^{2} -2*6*x\\100=1600-12*x\\12*x=1600-100\\12*x=1500\\x=125[m]
