Answer:
(a) The initial speed required is 13116 m/s
(b) The escape speed is 10394 m/s
This problem involves the application of newtons laws of gravitation. The forces in action here are conservative and as a result mechanical energy is conserved.
The full calculation can be found in the attachment below.
Explanation:
In both parts (a) and (b) the energy conservation equation were used. Assumption was made that when the object is very far from the planet the distance from the planet's center approaches infinity and the gravitational potential energy approaches zero.
The calculation can be found below.
Answer:
Explanation:
Given the height reached by a balloon after t sec modeled by the equation
h=1/2t²+1/2t
a) To calculate the height of the balloon after 40 secs we will substitute t = 40 into the modeled equation and calculate the value of t
If h(t)=1/2t²+1/2t
h(40) = 1/2(40)²+1/2 (40)
h(40) = 1600/2 + 40/2
h(40) = 800 + 20
h(40) = 820 feet
The height of the balloon after 40 secs is 820 feet
b) Velocity is the change of displacement of a body with respect to time.
v = dh/dt
v(t) = 2(1/2)t²⁻¹ + 1/2
v(t) = t + 1/2
when v = 0sec
v(0) = 0 + 1/2
v(0) = 1/2 ft/sec
at v = 30secs
v(30) = 30 + 1/2
v(30) = 30 1/2 ft/sec
average velocity = v(30) - v(0)
average velocity = 30 1/2 - 1/2
average velocity of the balloon between t = 0 and t = 30 = 30 ft/sec
c) Velocity is the change of displacement of a body with respect to time.
v = dh/dt
v(t) = 2(1/2)t²⁻¹ + 1/2
v(t) = t + 1/2
The velocity of the balloon after 30secs will be;
v(30) = 30+1/2
v(30) = 30.5ft/sec
The velocity of the balloon after 30 secs is 30.5 feet/sec
Answer:
The cost of energy is $ 0.34.
Explanation:
The energy is the capacity to do work.
The energy is a scalar quantity and its SI unit is Joule.
The commercial unit of energy is kWh.
Cost of 1 kWh energy = $ 0.17
energy loss by standard window is 2 kWh .
So, the cost of lost of energy is
Cost = $ 0.17 x 2 = $ 0.34
Answer:
3.62m/s and 2.83m/s
Explanation:
Apply conservation of momentum
For vertical component,
Pfy = Piy
m* Vof (sin38) - m*Vgf (sin52) = 0
Divide through by m
Vof(sin38) - Vgf(sin52) = 0
Vof(sin38) = Vgf(sin52)
Vof (sin38/sin52) = Vgf
0.7813Vof = Vgf
For horizontal component
Pxf= Pxi
m* Vof (cos38) - m*Vgf (cos52) = m*4.6
Divide through by m
Vof(cos38) + Vgf(cos52) = 4.6
Recall that
0.7813Vof = Vgf
Vof(cos38) + 0.7813 Vof(cos52) = 4.6
0.7880Vof + 0.4810Vof = 4.
1.269Vof = 4.6
Vof = 4.6/1.269
Vof = 3.62m/s
Recall that
0.7813Vof = Vgf
Vgf = 0.7813 * 3.62
Vgf = 2.83m/s
