The earth pulls the moon towards it because of the earth has more mass and therefore moe

Is 40,000 °C hotter or colder than 3,600 °C????

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Yes because if 0*c equals 32*F than the higher the number the hotter it is

Suddenly a worker picks up the bag of gravel. Use energy conservation to find the speed of the bucket after it has descended 2.3

fiasKO [112]

Explanation:

A worker picks up the bag of gravel. We need to find the speed of the bucket after it has descended 2.30 m from rest. It is case of conservation of energy. So,

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh\\\\v=\sqrt{2gh}$

h = 2.3 m

$v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 2.3} \\\\v=6.71\ m/s$

So, the speed of the bucket after it has descended 2.30 m from rest is 6.71 m/s.

A 125-kg astronaut (including space suit) acquires a speed of 2.50 m/s by pushing off with her legs from a 1900-kg space capsule

ryzh [129]

(a) 0.165 m/s

The total initial momentum of the astronaut+capsule system is zero (assuming they are both at rest, if we use the reference frame of the capsule):

$p_i = 0$

The final total momentum is instead:

$p_f = m_a v_a + m_c v_c$

where

$m_a = 125 kg$ is the mass of the astronaut

$v_a = 2.50 m/s$ is the velocity of the astronaut

$m_c = 1900 kg$ is the mass of the capsule

$v_c$ is the velocity of the capsule

Since the total momentum must be conserved, we have

$p_i = p_f = 0$

so

$m_a v_a + m_c v_c=0$

Solving the equation for $v_c$ , we find

$v_c = - \frac{m_a v_a}{m_c}=-\frac{(125 kg)(2.50 m/s)}{1900 kg}=-0.165 m/s$

(negative direction means opposite to the astronaut)

So, the change in speed of the capsule is 0.165 m/s.

(b) 520.8 N

We can calculate the average force exerted by the capsule on the man by using the impulse theorem, which states that the product between the average force and the time of the collision is equal to the change in momentum of the astronaut:

$F \Delta t = \Delta p$

The change in momentum of the astronaut is

$\Delta p= m\Delta v = (125 kg)(2.50 m/s)=312.5 kg m/s$

And the duration of the push is

$\Delta t = 0.600 s$

So re-arranging the equation we find the average force exerted by the capsule on the astronaut:

$F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}=\frac{312.5 kg m/s}{0.600 s}=520.8 N$

And according to Newton's third law, the astronaut exerts an equal and opposite force on the capsule.

(c) 25.9 J, 390.6 J

The kinetic energy of an object is given by:

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where

m is the mass

v is the speed

For the astronaut, m = 125 kg and v = 2.50 m/s, so its kinetic energy is

$K=\frac{1}{2}(125 kg)(2.50 m/s)^2=390.6 J$

For the capsule, m = 1900 kg and v = 0.165 m/s, so its kinetic energy is

$K=\frac{1}{2}(1900 kg)(0.165 m/s)^2=25.9 J$

Explain how you think an asteroid impact could affect the tilt of Earth’s axis. Explain how this effect would change Earth’s sea

a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

An asteroid impact could affect the tilt of the Earth due to the force it applies onto the planet. This would change Earth's seasons due to the fact that Earth's tilt causes seasons.
