This can be solved using momentum balance, since momentum is conserved, the momentum at point 1 is equal to the momentum of point 2. momentum = mass x velocity
m1v1 = m2v2
(0.03kg x 900 m/s ) = 320(v2)
v2 = 27 / 320
v2 = 0.084 m/s is the speed of the astronaut
part 1
mass = ρ x V
mass = 1739 kg/m³ x 3.8 km³ = 6608.2 kg
PE (potential energy)= mgh
PE = 6608.2 kg x 9.81 x 403
PE = 2.61 x 10⁷ J
part 2
megaton of TNT (Mt) =4.2 x 10¹⁵ J
convert PE to Mt:
2.61 x 10⁷ J : 4.2 x 10¹⁵ J = 6.21 x 10⁻⁹ Mt
Answer:
The spring constant = 104.82 N/m
The angular velocity of the bar when θ = 32° is 1.70 rad/s
Explanation:
From the diagram attached below; we use the conservation of energy to determine the spring constant by using to formula:
Also;
Thus;
where;
= deflection in the spring
k = spring constant
b = remaining length in the rod
m = mass of the slender bar
g = acceleration due to gravity
Thus; the spring constant = 104.82 N/m
b
The angular velocity can be calculated by also using the conservation of energy;
Thus, the angular velocity of the bar when θ = 32° is 1.70 rad/s
Answer:
1.08
Explanation:
This is the case of interference in thin films in which interference bands are formed due to constructive interference of two reflected light waves , one from upper layer and the other from lower layer . If t be the thickness and μ be the refractive index then
path difference created will be 2μ t.
For light coming from rarer to denser medium , a phase change of π occurs additionally after reflection from denser medium, here, two times, once from upper layer and then from the lower layer , so for constructive interference
path diff = nλ , for minimum t , n =1
path diff = λ
2μ t. = λ
μ = λ / 2t
= 626 / 2 x 290
= 1.08
Answer:
Time, t = 0.015 seconds.
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Mass, m = 0.2kg
Force, F = 200N
Initial velocity, u = 40m/s
Final velocity, v = 25m/s
To find the time;
Ft = m(v - u)
Time, t = m(v - u)/f
Substituting into the equation, we have;
Time, t = 0.2(25 - 40)/200
Time, t = 0.2(-15)/200
Time, t = 3/200
Time, t = 0.015 seconds.
Note: We ignored the negative sign because time can't be negative.
