The position of the spaceship as the engine shuts off is given as \boxed{x=(708.15\,\hat{i}-400\,\hat{j}+155.9\,\hat{k})\times10^3\text{ km}}.

Explanation:

Given:

The initial position of the spaceship relative to the planet is (600\,\hat{i}-400\,\hat{j}+200\,\hat{k})\times10^3\text{ km}.

The speed of the spaceship is 9500\,\hat{i}\text{ m/s}.

The acceleration of the spaceship is 40\,\hat{i}-20\,\hat{k}\text{ m/s}^2.

The time for which the thruster engine accelerates the spaceship is 35\text{ min}.

Concept:

As the spaceship is accelerated by the thruster engine, the spaceship moves according to the second equation of motion.

Write the expression for the displacement of the spaceship in time interval.

\boxed{S=v_{o}t+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2}

Here, S is the total displacement of the spaceship, v_{o} is the initial velocity of spaceship, a is the acceleration of the spaceship and t is the time for which the spaceship accelerates.

Substitute the values of the initial speed, acceleration and the time taken by the spaceship in above expression.

\begin{aligned}S&=\{9500\,\hat{i}\times(35\times60)\}+\dfrac{1}{2}(40\,\hat{i}-20\,\hat{k})(35\times60)^2\\&=(1.995\times10^7\,\hat{i})+(8.82\times10^7)\,\hat{i}-(4.41\times10^7)\,\hat{k}\\&=(108.15\,\hat{i}-44.1\,\hat{k})\times10^6\text{ m}\\&=(108.15\,\hat{i}-44.1\,\hat{k})\times10^3\text{ km}\end{aligned}

Write the expression for the new position of the spaceship after it stops.

X'=X_{o}+S

Substitute the value of the initial position and the displacement of the spaceship.

\begin{aligned}X'&=(600\,\hat{i}-400\,\hat{j}+200\,\hat{k})\times10^3\text{ km}+(108.15\,\hat{i}-44.1\,\hat{k})\times10^3\text{ km}\\&=(708.15\,\hat{i}-400\,\hat{j}+155.9\,\hat{k})\times10^3\text{ km}\end{aligned}

Thus, the position of the spaceship as the engine shuts off is given as \boxed{x=(708.15\,\hat{i}-400\,\hat{j}+155.9\,\hat{k})\times10^3\text{ km}}.

<u>Answer:</u>

 The spaceship's position when the engine shuts off = (708.15 i - 444.1 j + 200 k)*10^3km

<u>Explanation:</u>

  Initial location of spaceship = (600 i - 400 j + 200 k)*10^3km= (600 i - 400 j + 200 k)*10^6m

  Initial velocity = 9500 i m/s

  Acceleration = (40 i - 20 k)10^3m/s^2

  Time = 35 minute = 35 * 60 = 2100 seconds

 We have equation of motion , s= ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2, s is the displacement, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time.

  Substituting

       s= (9500 i)*2100+\frac{1}{2}*(40 i - 20 k)*2100^2\\ \\ s=9500*2100 i+20*2100^2i-10*2100^2j\\ \\ s=19.95*10^6i+88.2*10^6i-44.1*10^6j\\ \\ \\s=(108.15i-44.1j)*10^6m

     So final position = ((600 i - 400 j + 200 k)+(108.15i-44.1j))*10^6=(708.15 i - 444.1 j + 200 k)*10^6m

                              =(708.15 i - 444.1 j + 200 k)*10^3km

    The spaceship's position when the engine shuts off = (708.15 i - 444.1 j + 200 k)*10^3km

The energy from 0.015 moles of octane was used to heat 250 grams of water. The temperature of the water rose from 293.0 K to 371
arsen [322]

Answer : The correct option is, (B) -5448 kJ/mol

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the heat required by water.

q=m\times c\times (T_2-T_1)

where,

q = heat required by water = ?

m = mass of water = 250 g

c = specific heat capacity of water = 4.18J/g.K

T_1 = initial temperature of water = 293.0 K

T_2 = final temperature of water = 371.2 K

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

q=250g\times 4.18J/g.K\times (371.2-293.0)K

q=81719J

Now we have to calculate the enthalpy of combustion of octane.

\Delta H=\frac{q}{n}

where,

\Delta H = enthalpy of combustion of octane = ?

q = heat released = -81719 J

n = moles of octane = 0.015 moles

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

\Delta H=\frac{-81719J}{0.015mole}

\Delta H=-5447933.333J/mol=-5447.9kJ/mol\approx -5448kJ/mol

Therefore, the enthalpy of combustion of octane is -5448 kJ/mol.

Elanso [62]

Answer:

A. The bomb will take <em>17.5 seconds </em>to hit the ground

B. The bomb will land <em>12040 meters </em>on the ground ahead from where they released it

Explanation:

Maverick and Goose are flying at an initial height of y_0=1500m, and their speed is v=688 m/s

When they release the bomb, it will initially have the same height and speed as the plane. Then it will describe a free fall horizontal movement

The equation for the height y with respect to ground in a horizontal movement (no friction) is

y=y_0 - \frac{gt^2}{2}    [1]

With g equal to the acceleration of gravity of our planet and t the time measured with respect to the moment the bomb was released

The height will be zero when the bomb lands on ground, so if we set y=0 we can find the flight time

The range (horizontal displacement) of the bomb x is

x = v.t     [2]

Since the bomb won't have any friction, its horizontal component of the speed won't change. We need to find t from the equation [1] and replace it in equation [2]:

Setting y=0 and isolating t we get

t=\sqrt{\frac{2y_0}{g}}

Since we have y_0=1500m

t=\sqrt{\frac{2(1500)}{9.8}}

t=17.5 sec

Replacing in [2]

x = 688\ m/sec \ (17.5sec)

x = 12040\ m

A. The bomb will take 17.5 seconds to hit the ground

B. The bomb will land 12040 meters on the ground ahead from where they released it

If the velocity of a proton is straight up (thumb pointing up) then RHR2 shows that the force points to the left. What would the
diamong [38]

Answer:

a) to the right

b) up

c) down

d) there will be no force on the proton

e) there will be no force on the proton

Explanation:

The complete question is

If the velocity of a proton is straight up(thumb pointing up) then RHR2 (right hand rule) shows that the force points to the left. What would the direction of the force be if the velocity were a)down, b)to the right, c)to the left, d)into the page, and e)out of the page?

The right hand rule for a positive charge states that...

Hold the thumb of the right hand at right angle to the rest of the fingers, and the rest of the fingers parallel to one another, and pointing away from the body. If the thumb shows the velocity of a positive charge in a magnetic field, and the fingers all point in the direction of the magnetic field, then the palm will push in the direction of the force on the positive charge (proton).

From this, we can deduce from the original statement about this proton that the direction of the field is into the screen of this computer. with that field direction held constant, we can work out that

a) if the thumb point down, the force will be to the right

b) if the thumb points to the right, the force will be upwards

c)  if the thumb points to the left, the force is downwards

d)  if the thumb points into the page, then there will be no force on the proton since the proton must travel perpendicularly to the magnetic field for a force to be induced on it

e) explanation is the same as foe option d.

A white blood cell has a diameter of approximately 12 micrometers, or 0.012 um. A model represents its diameter as 24 um. What i
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

2:1

Explanation:

It is given that,

The diameter of a white blood cell is 12 micrometers

The diameter of white blood cell according to a model is 24 micrometers.

We need to find the ratio of model size to actual size. It can be done as follows :

R=\dfrac{\text{model size}}{\text{actual size}}\\\\R=\dfrac{24\ \mu m}{12\ \mu m}\\\\R=\dfrac{2}{1}

Hence, the ratio of model size to actual size is 2:1.
