If a 1000-pound capsule weighs only 165 pounds on the moon, how much work is done in propelling this capsule out of the moon's g
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

  W = 1,307 10⁶ J

Explanation:

Work is the product of force by distance, in this case it is the force of gravitational attraction between the moon (M) and the capsule (m₁)

              F = G m₁ M / r²

              W = ∫ F. dr

              W = G m₁ M ∫ dr / r²

we integrate

             W = G m₁ M (-1 / r)

                 

We evaluate between the limits, lower r = R_ Moon and r = ∞

           W = -G m₁ M (1 /∞ - 1 / R_moon)

            W = G m1 M / r_moon

Body weight is

             W = mg

             m = W / g

The mass is constant, so we can find it with the initial data

For the capsule

            m = 1000/32 = 165 / g_moon

            g_moom = 165 32/1000

            .g_moon = 5.28 ft / s²

I think it is easier to follow the exercise in SI system  

           W_capsule = 1000 pound (1 kg / 2.20 pounds)

           W_capsule = 454 N

           W = m_capsule g

           m_capsule = W / g

           m = 454 /9.8

           m_capsule = 46,327 kg

Let's calculate

          W = 6.67 10⁻¹¹ 46,327   7.36 10²² / 1.74 10⁶

          W = 1,307 10⁶ J

A vector has an x-component
NeTakaya

Answer:

34.45m

Explanation:

Magnitude of a vector is equal to the square root of sum of squares of x & y vectors.

Magnitude = \sqrt({x^2} + {y^2})

= \sqrt({19.5^2} + {28.4^2})

=34.45m

The redshift of a star means that _____.
Gelneren [198K]
The correct answer is D. the star is getting farther away.

When the light has red-shifted, it shows that everything is moving away from a certain point. This is known as the Doppler effect and proves the Big Bang (which would be the center point that everything is moving away from). Just as a 'for your information', blue shift is when the star is moving towards us.

Hope I helped :)

Find the momentum of a 500,000 kg train that is stopped on the tracks?
Aneli [31]

Answer:

The answer should be A) 0m/s

Explanation:

It is stopped on the train tracks therefore it is not moving.

Please tell me if I am wrong because I'm not 100% sure on this. Hope it's right and that it helped you.
