Neglecting air, what speed does a rock thrown straight up have to be to reach the edge of our atmosphere: say 100 km? Still negl

ecting air, after the rock falls back down, what speed will it have just before it hits the earth? Assume constant gravity g = 10 m/s 2 for earth’s gravity.

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the kinematic equations of movement description, specifically those that allow us to find speed and acceleration as a function of distance and not time.

Mathematically we have to

v_f^2-v_i^2 = 2ax

Where,

v_{f,i} = Final velocity and Initial velocity

a = Acceleration

x = Displacement

From the description given there is no final speed (since it reaches the maximum point) but there is a required initial speed that is contingent on traveling a certain distance under the effects of gravity

0 - v_i^2 = 2(9.8)(100*10^3)

v_i = 14*10^2m/s

Therefore the speed which must a rock thrown straight up is 14*10^2m/s to reach the edge of our atmosphere.

The displacement and gravity traveled are the same, therefore the final speed will be the same but in the opposite vector direction (towards the earth), that is 14 * 10 ^ 2m / s

g Estimate the number of photons emitted by the Sun in a second. The power output from the Sun is 4 × 1026 W and assume that th
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

The value is N  =  1.107 *10^{45 }  \ photons    

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  power output from the sun is  P_o =  4 * 10^{26} \  W

   The average wavelength of each photon is  \lambda  = 550 \  nm  =  550 *10^{-9} \  m

Generally the energy of each photon emitted is mathematically represented as

        E_c =  \frac{h * c  }{ \lambda }

Here  h is the Plank's constant with value  h  =  6.62607015 * 10^{-34} J \cdot s

          c is the speed of light with value  c =  3.0 *10^{8} \  m/s

So

       E_c =  \frac{6.62607015 * 10^{-34}  * 3.0 *10^{8}  }{ 550 *10^{-9} }          

=>   E_c =  3.614 *10^{-19} \  J          

Generally the  number of photons emitted by the Sun in a second is mathematically represented as

         N  =  \frac{P }{E_c}

=>      N  =  \frac{4 * 10^{26} }{3.614 *10^{-19}}

=>      N  =  1.107 *10^{45 }  \ photons

What are the reactants of cellular respiration? Check all that apply. carbon dioxide energy glucose oxygen water
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

Glucose and Oxygen

Explanation:

Cellular respiration is the process whereby cells derives energy by the use of glucose and oxygen.

Organisms that use cellular respiration to produce their energy are known as heterotophs. They derive the glucose from food materials obtained from plant sources. They use the oxygen from the environment to liberate energy from the glucose obtained from feeding on plant materials.

Cellular respiration can be simply expressed as shown below:

GLUCOSE + OXYGEN → CO₂ + H₂O + ATP

The reactants are glucose and oxygen.

The products are CO₂, water and ATP

What are the rules for setting up an integral of rotation?
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Setting up an integral of rotation is used as a method of of calculating the volume of a 3D object formed by a rotated area of a 2D space. Finding the volume is similar to finding the area, but there is one additional component of rotating the area around a line of symmetry.

<span>First the solid of revolution should be defined. The general  function is y=f(x), on an interval [a,b].</span>

Then the curve is rotated about a given axis to get the surface of the solid of revolution. That is the integral of the function.

<span>It all depends of the function f(x), which must be known in order to calculate  the integral.</span>

The weight of a body is 600 N. What is the mass of the body on the surface of the earth?​
mamaluj [8]

Explanation:

soln,

weight=600N

mass=?

gravity=9.8 m/s²

now,

  • mass=weight/gravity
  • mass=600/9.8
  • mass=61.22kg

hope it helps.
