Physics question A spacecraft descends vertically near the surface of Planet X. An upward thrust of 25.0kN from its engines slow

s it down at a rate of 1.20 m/s^2, but if an upward thrust of only 10.0 kN is applied, it speeds up at rate of .80m/s^2.

 F=m*a and m is constant on any planet 
25000-m*g=m*1.2 
10000-m*g=-m*0.80 
m*g is the weight 
25000/1.2-m*g/1.2=m 
10000/0.80-m*g/0.80=-25000/1.2+m*g/1.2 solve for m*g 
m*g=(10000/0.80+25000/1.2)/ (1/1.2+1/0.80) 
16 kN

A ball is falling at terminal velocity. Terminal velocity occurs when the ball is in equilibrium and the forces are balanced. Wh
Greeley [361]

Answer:

A free body diagram with 2 forces: the first pointing downward labeled F Subscript g Baseline 20 N and the second pointing upward labeled F Subscript air Baseline 20 N.

Explanation:

This is because at terminal velocity, the ball stops accelerating and the net force on the ball is zero. For the net force to be zero, equal and opposite forces must act on the ball, so that their resultant force is zero. That is F₁ + F₂ = 0 ⇒ F₁ = -F₂

Since F₁ = 20 N, then F₂ = -F₁ = -20 N

So, if F₁ points upwards since it is positive, then F₂ points downwards since it is negative.

So, a free body diagram with 2 forces: the first pointing downward labeled F Subscript g Baseline 20 N and the second pointing upward labeled F Subscript air Baseline 20 N best describes the ball falling at terminal velocity.

natka813 [3]

Answer:

t = \frac{\sqrt{\omega0^2+2*\theta*\alpha} -\omega0}{\alpha}

Explanation:

The rotated angle is given by:

\theta=\omega0*t+1/2*\alpha*t^2

Since this is a quadratic equation it can be solved using:

x=\frac{-b \± \sqrt{b^2-4*a*c}  }{2*a}

Rewriting our equation:

1/2*\alpha*t^2+\omega0*t-\theta=0

t = \frac{\±\sqrt{\omega0^2+2*\theta*\alpha} -\omega0}{\alpha}

Since \sqrt{\omega0^2+2*\theta*\alpha} >\omega0 we discard the negative solution.

t = \frac{\sqrt{\omega0^2+2*\theta*\alpha} -\omega0}{\alpha}
