A space vehicle is traveling at 4150 km/h relative to the Earth when the exhausted rocket motor (mass 4m) is disengaged and sent

backward with a speed of 79 km/h relative to the command module (mass m). What is the speed of the command module relative to Earth just after the separation? km/h

Answer:

4213.2 Km/h

Explanation:

Given:

Initial Speed of space vehicle relative to Earth, u = 4150 km/h

Mass of rocket motor = 4m

speed of the rocket motor relative to command module , v'  = 79 Km/h

Mass of the command module = m

Now,

let the speed of command module relative to earth be 'v'

From the conservation of momentum, we have

( 4m + m ) × u = m × v + (4m × (v - v'))

or

5m × 4150 = mv + 4mv - 4mv'

or

20750 = 5v - ( 4 × 79 )

or

20750 = 5v - 316

or

v = 4213.2 Km/h

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

The correct option is (b).

Explanation:

Given that,

Electric field, E=2\times 10^2\ N/C

We need to find the magnitude of the force on the electron as a result of the electric field.

We know that, the electric force is given by :

F=qE\\\\=1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 2\times 10^2\\\\F=3.2\times 10^{-17}\ N

So, the required force on the electron is equal to 3.2\times 10^{-17}\ N.

. A 79 g sample of water at 21oC is heated until it becomes steam with a temperature of 143oC. Find the change in heat content o
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

40479.6 J

Explanation:

Applying,

q = cm(t₂-t₁).................... Equation 1

Where q = change in heat content of the system, c = specific heat capacity of the system, m = mass of the system, t₁ = initial temperature, t₂ = final temperature.

From the question,

Given: m = 79 g = 0.079 kg, t₁ = 21°C, t₂ = 143°C

Constant: c = 4200 J/kg.°C

Substitute these values into equation 1

q = 4200(0.079)(143-21)

q = 331.8(122)

q = 40479.6 J
