An ice sled powered by a rocket engine starts from rest on a large frozen lake and accelerates at 12.7 m/s2 . At t1 the rocket e

ngine is shut down and the sled moves with constant velocity v for another t2 s. The total distance traveled by the sled is 5.85 × 103 m and the total time is 94.6 s. Find t1. Answer in units of s.

Answer:

The value of t₁ is 5.119 sec.

Explanation:

Given that,

Acceleration = 12.7 m/s²

Total distance $D=5.85\times10^{3}\ m$

Time = 94.6 sec

We need to calculate the distance

Using equation of motion

$s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2$

Put the value into the formula

$s_{1}=0+\dfrac{1}{2}12.7t_{1}^2$ ...(I)

We need to calculate the velocity

Using equation of motion

$v=u+at$

Put the value into the formula

$v=0+12.7t_{1}$

$v=12.7t_{1}$

The sled while moves with constant velocity v for time t₂

Using formula of distance

$s_{2}=vt_{2}$

$s_{2}=12.7t_{1}t_{2}$

The total distance is

$s_{1}+s_{2}=5.85\times10^{3}$

Put the value of s₁ and s₂

$\dfrac{1}{2}12.7t_{1}^2+12.7t_{1}t_{2}=5.85\times10^{3}$

$6.35t_{1}+12.7t_{1}t_{2}=5.85\times10^{3}$ ...(II)

The total time is

$t_{1}+t_{2}=94.6$ ....(III)

From equation (II) and (III)

After solving

$t_{1}=5.119\ sec$

Hence, The value of t₁ is 5.119 sec.

Answer: The value of the celsius temperature of the cube is 472.2°c.

Explanation:

The expression for the power radiated is as follows;

$P=A\epsilon\sigma T^{4}$

Here, A is the area, $\sigma$ is the stefan's constant, $\epsilon$ is the emissivity and T is the temperature.

It is given in the problem that A sphere is originally at a temperature of 500°c. The sphere is melted and recast, without loss of mass, into a cube with the same emissivity as the sphere.

Then the expression for the radiated power for the cube and the sphere can be expressed as;

$A_{1}\epsilon \e\sigma T_{1}^{4}=A_{2}\epsilon \e\sigma T_{2}^{4}$

Here, $A_{1}$ is the area of the sphere, $A_{2}$ is the area of the cube, $T_{1}$ is the temperature of the sphere and $T_{2}$ is the temperature of the cube.

The radiated powers and emissivity of the cube and the sphere are same.

$A_{1}T_{1}^{4}=A_{2}T_{2}^{4}$

The area of the sphere is $A_{1}=4\pi \times r^{2}$ .

Here, r is the radius of the sphere.

The area of the cube is $A_{2}=6\times a^{2}$ .

Here, a is the edge of the cube.

Put $A_{1}=4\pi \times r^{2}$ and $A_{2}=6\times a^{2}$ .

$T_{2}=T_{1}(\frac{2\pi }{3}\times (\frac{r}{a})^{2})^{\frac{1}{4}}$ ....(1)

The masses and the densities of the sphere and the cube are same. Then the volumes are also same.

$V_{1}=V_{2}$

Here, $V_{1},V_{1}$ are the volumes of the sphere and the cube.

$\frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}=a^{3}$

$\frac{r}{a}=(\frac{3}{4\pi })^{\frac{1}{3}}$

Put this value in the equation (1).

$T_{2}=T_{1}(\frac{2\pi }{3}\times (\frac{r}{a})^{2})^{\frac{1}{4}}$ $T_{2}=T_{1}(\frac{2\pi }{3}\times ((\frac{3}{4\pi })^{\frac{1}{3}})^{2})^{\frac{1}{4}}$

Put T_{1}=500°c.

$T_{2}=(500)(\frac{2\pi }{3}\times (\frac{3}{4\pi })^{\frac{2}{3}})^{\frac{1}{4}}$

$T_{2}=472.2^{\circ}c$

Therefore, the value of the celsius temperature of the cube is 472.7°c.

you weight 650 N. What would you wieght if the Earth were four times as massive as it is and its raduis were three times its pre

LiRa [457]

To solve this problem we will apply the concept given by the law of gravitational attraction, which properly defines gravity under the function

$g = \frac{GM}{r^2}$

Here,

G = Gravitational Universal Constant

M = Mass of Earth

r = Distance between the human and the center of mass of the Earth

The acceleration due to gravity when is 4 times the mass of Earth and 3 times the radius would be given as,

$g_1 = \frac{GM}{r^2}$

$g_2 = \frac{G(4M)}{(3r)^2}$

$g_2 = \frac{4GM}{9r^2}$

$g_2 = \frac{4}{9} g_1$

The weight is defined as

$W = mg_1$

So the new weight would be given as

$W' = mg_2$

$W' = m(\frac{4}{9} g_1 )$

$W' = \frac{4}{9} mg_1$

$W' = \frac{4}{9} W$

$W' = \frac{4}{9}(650)$

$W' = 288.8N$

Therefore the weight under this condition is 288.8N
