Answer:
Explanation:
Let the velocity be v
Total energy at the bottom
= rotational + linear kinetic energy
= 1/2 Iω² + 1/2 mv² ( I moment of inertia of shell = mr² )
= 1/2 mr²ω² + 1/2 mv² ( v = ω r )
= 1/2 mv² +1/2 mv²
= mv²
mv² = mgh ( conservation of energy )
v² = gh
v = √gh
= √9.8 x 1.8
= 4.2 m /s
Answer:
Mass remains constant but weight reduces
Explanation:
Mass is the amount of matter in an object so whether on moon or any other planet, it does not change despite the changes in acceleration.
Weight is a product of mass and acceleration due to gravity, expressed as W=mg where m is the mass, W is weight and g is acceleration. From the above formula, it is evident that when you decrease g, then W also decreases while m is constant. Similarly, when m is constant and g is increased then W also increases.
Therefore, for this case, since g decreases, the weight decreases but mass remains constant.
In an alpha decay, an atom emits an alpha particle. An alpha particle consists of 2 protons and 2 neutrons: this means that during this kind of decay, the original atom loses 2 protons and 2 neutrons from its nucleus.
This also means that the atomic number Z of the element (the atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus) decreases by 2 units in the process, while the mass number A (the mass number is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons) decreases by 4 units.
Answer:a
Explanation:
Because its has to use tihs potential energy to overcome the atmosphere so the shuttle will not go back down
