The orbital velocity of the Earth about the sun is 30 km/s. If the Earth were suddenly stopped in its tracks, it would simply fa

ll radially into the sun. Devise a plan whereby a rocket loaded with radioactive wastes could be fired into the sun for permanent disposal. How fast and in what direction with respect to the Earth's orbit should the rocket be fired?

Answer:

Planet will crash on to the Sun if the tangential velocity becomes zero and Rocket should be fired  from Earth's orbit is at 30 m/s and in opposite direction to the Earth orbits the Sun

Explanation:

The orbital velocity of the Earth about the sun is 30 km/s. If we shoot a rocket with 30 km/s with respect to Earth in the opposite direction.  Then the two velocity vectors cancel. The resultant velocity would be zero with respect to the Sun. resulting velocity is called as tangential velocity.

Planet will crash on to the Sun if the tangential velocity becomes zero and Rocket should be fired  from Earth's orbit is at 30 m/s and in opposite direction to the Earth orbits the Sun

The engine of a 2000 kg Mercedes going up Pike’s Peak delivers energy to its drive wheel at the rate 100 kW . Neglecting air res
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

v = 10 m/s

Explanation:

given,

Mass of Mercedes engine = 2000 Kg

Power delivered = 100 kW

angle made with horizontal = 30°

acceleration due to gravity =  10 m/s²

largest speed car can sustain = ?

we know,

Power = Force x velocity

P = F x v

P = mg sinθ x v

P = mg sin 30° x v

P = 0.5 mg  x v

v = \dfrac{100 \times 10^3}{0.5\times 2000 \times 10}

v = 10 m/s

hence, the maximum velocity is equal to v = 10 m/s
