Answer:

19.8 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Maximum vertical displacement of the object (H) = 20 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

At maximum height, the velocity of the object is 0 m/s for a moment. So, final velocity (v) at the maximum height is 0 m/s.

Now, let the initial velocity or velocity at launch be 'u' m/s.

Now, using the following equation of motion for vertical motion:

$v^2=u^2-2gH$

Rewriting in terms of 'u', we get:

$u^2=v^2+2gH\\\\u=\sqrt{v^2+2gH}$

Plug in the given values and solve for 'u'. This gives,

$u=\sqrt{0+2\times 9.8\times 20}\\\\u=\sqrt{392}\\\\u=19.8\ m/s$

Therefore, the vertical velocity at the launch is 19.8 m/s.

AVprozaik [17]

<h2>Answer:</h2><h2>The acceleration of the meteoroid due to the gravitational force exerted by the planet = 12.12 m/ $s^{2}$ </h2>

Explanation:

A meteoroid is in a circular orbit 600 km above the surface of a distant planet.

Mass of the planet = mass of earth = 5.972 x $10^{24}$ Kg

Radius of the earth = 90% of earth radius = 90% 6370 = 5733 km

The acceleration of the meteoroid due to the gravitational force exerted by the planet = ?

By formula, g = $\frac{GM}{r^{2} }$

where g is the acceleration due to the gravity

G is the universal gravitational constant = 6.67 x $10^{-11}$ $m^{3} kg^{-1} s^{-2}$

M is the mass of the planet

r is the radius of the planet

Substituting the values, we get

g = $\frac{(6.67 * 10^{-11}) (5.972 * 10^{24}) }{5733^{2} }$

g = 12.12 m/ $s^{2}$

The acceleration of the meteoroid due to the gravitational force exerted by the planet = 12.12 m/ $s^{2}$

A jogger moves from a position x =

vlada-n [284]

Answer:

3 m/s

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the change in displacement of the jogger. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial displacement (d₁) = 4 m

Final displacement (d₂) = 16 m

Change in displacement (Δd) =?

Δd = d₂ – d₁

Δd = 16 – 4

Δd = 12 m

Finally, we shall determine the determine the average velocity. This can be obtained as follow:

Change in displacement (Δd) = 12 m

Time (t) = 4 s

Velocity (v) =?

v = Δd / t

v = 12 / 4

v = 3 m/s

Thus, the average velocity of the jogger is 3 m/s

A spherical gas-storage tank with an inside diameter of 9 m is being constructed to store gas under an internal pressure of 1.50

lutik1710 [3]

Answer: 33 mm

Explanation:

Given

Diameter of the tank, d = 9 m, so that, radius = d/2 = 9/2 = 4.5 m

Internal pressure of gas, P(i) = 1.5 MPa

Yield strength of steel, P(y) = 340 MPa

Factor of safety = 0.3

Allowable stress = 340 * 0.3 = 102 MPa

σ = pr / 2t, where

σ = allowable stress

p = internal pressure

r = radius of the tank

t = minimum wall thickness

t = pr / 2σ

t = 1.5*10^6 * 4.5 / 2 * 102*10^6

t = 0.033 m

t = 33 mm

The minimum thickness of the wall required is therefore, 33 mm
