It is so easy because water is slippery, right? that makes your hands clean. Also, it might because your soles of your shoes are not strong

Jupiter's moon Io has active volcanoes (in fact, it is the most volcanically active body in the solar system) that eject materia

Anton [14]

Answer:

91.64 km

91.64 km high material would go on earth if it were ejected with the same speed as on Io.

Explanation:

According to Newton Law of gravitation:

$g=\frac{Gm}{r^2}$

Where:

G is gravitational constant= $6.67*10^{-11} m^3/kg.s^2$

For Moon lo g is:

$g_M=\frac{6.67*10^{-11}*8.93*10^{22}}{(1821*10^3)^2m^2} \\g_M=1.7962 m/s^2$

According to law of conservation of energy

Initial Energy=Final Energy

$K.E_i+mgh_i=K.E_f+mgh_f$

$\frac{1}{2}m(v_0)^2+mgh_o= \frac{1}{2}m(v_f)^2+mgh_f\\At\ maximum\ height\ v_f=0\\\frac{1}{2}m(v_0)^2+0=mgh_f\\v_0=\sqrt{2gh_f}$

For Jupiter's moon Io:

Velocity is given by:

$v_0_M=\sqrt{2g_Mh_f_M}$

For Earth Velocity is given by:

$v_0_E=\sqrt{2g_Eh_f_E}$

Now:

$v_o_M=v_o_E$

$\sqrt{2g_Mh_f_M}=\sqrt{2g_Eh_f_E}\\h_f_E=\frac{g_Mh_f_M}{g_E}$

$g_E=9.8 m/s^2$

$g_m=1.7962 m/s^2, As\ Calculated\ above$

$h_f_E=\frac{1.7962*500*10^3m}{9.8} \\h_f_E=91642.85 m\\h_f_E=91.64Km$

91.64 km high material would go on earth if it were ejected with the same speed as on Io.

A ball is launched at an angle of 10 degrees from a 20 meter tall building with a speed of 4 m/s. How long is the ball in the ai

shutvik [7]

Answer:

d) None of the above

Explanation:

$v_{o}$ = inituial velocity of launch = 4 m/s

θ = angle of launch = 10 deg

Consider the motion along the vertical direction

$v_{oy}$ = initial velocity along vertical direction = 4 Sin10 = 0.695

m/s

$a_{y}$ = acceleration along the vertical direction = - 9.8 m/s²

y = vertical displacement = - 20 m

t = time of travel

using the equation

$y=v_{oy} t+(0.5)a_{y} t^{2}$

- 20 = (0.695) t + (0.5) (- 9.8) t²

t = 2.1 sec

consider the motion along the horizontal direction

x = horizontal displacement

$v_{ox}$ = initial velocity along horizontal direction = 4 Cos10 = 3.94 m/s

$a_{x}$ = acceleration along the horizontal direction = 0 m/s²

t = time of travel = 2.1 s

Using the kinematics equation

$x =v_{ox} t+(0.5)a_{x} t^{2}$

x = (3.94) (2.1) + (0.5) (0) (2.1)²

x = 8.3 m

Consider the motion along the vertical direction

$v_{oy}$ = initial velocity along vertical direction = 4 Sin10 = 0.695

m/s

$a_{y}$ = acceleration along the vertical direction = - 9.8 m/s²

$y_{o}$ =initial vertical position at the time of launch = 20 m

$y$ = vertical position at the maximum height = 20 m

$v_{fy}$ = final velocity along vertical direction at highest point = 0 m/s

using the equation

${v_{fy}}^{2}= {v_{oy}}^{2} + 2 a_{y}(y - y_{o})$

$0^{2}= 0.695^{2} + 2 (- 9.8)(y - 20)$

$y$ = 20.02 m

h = height above the starting height

h = $y$ - $y_{o}$

h = 20.02 - 20

h = 0.02 m

.<br> Why are meteorites moving?

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

Glow

Explanation:

Actually, it is the air in front of the meteoroid that heats up. The particle is traveling at speeds between 20 and 30 kilometers per second. It compresses the air in front, causing the air to get hot. The air is so hot it begins to glow — creating a meteor - the streak of light observed from Earth.

Hope this helped!
