(Please help ASAP) A new planet MPSM, Mystery Planet of Spartan Men, is discovered following the orbital path of the Mystery Pla

net of Amazon Women. The gravitational field of the MPSM is measured during a satellite fly-by as 1.33 m/s2 at a distance of 5 planetary radii from the center of MPSM. What is the expected strength of the planet's gravity on its surface?

Answer:

33.25 m/s^2

Explanation:

The strength of the gravitational field produced by a planet at a distance r from the centre of the planet is given by

g=\frac{GM}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the mass of the planet

r is the distance from the centre of the planet

We can rewrite the equation as

gr^2 = GM

And since the term on the right is constant, we can write

g_1 r_1^2 = g_2 r_2^2

where g_1,g_2 are the strength of the gravitational field measured at two difference distances r1, r2.

In this problem we have:

g_1 = 1.33 m/s^2 when the distance is 5 planetary radii, so

r_1 = 5R

where R is the planetary radius.

Therefore, at the surface,

r_2 =R

And the strength of the gravitational field is

g_2 = \frac{g_1 r_1^2}{r_2^2}=\frac{(1.33)(5R)^2}{R^2}=(1.33)(25)=33.25 m/s^2

A 500-g lump of clay is dropped onto a 1-kg cart moving at 60 cm/s. The clay is moving downward at 30 cm/s just before l dith t
viktelen [127]

Answer:

The speed of the cart and clay after the collision is 50 cm/s .

Explanation:

Given :

Mass of lump , m = 500 g = 0.5 kg .

Velocity of lump , v = 30 cm/s .

Mass of cart , M = 1 kg .

Velocity of cart , V = 60 cm/s .

We know by conservation of momentum :

mv+MV=(m+M)v'

Here , v' is the speed of the cart and clay after the collision .

Putting all value in above equation .

We get :

0.5\times 30+1\times 60=(0.5+1)\times v'\\\\v'=\dfrac{15+60}{1.5}\\\\v'=50\ cm/s

Hence , this is the required solution .

A weight of 30.0 N is suspended from a spring that has a force constant of 220 N/m. The system is undamped and is subjected to a
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

F_0 = 393 N

Explanation:

As we know that amplitude of forced oscillation is given as

A = \frac{F_0}{ m(\omega^2 - \omega_0^2)}

here we know that natural frequency of the oscillation is given as

\omega_0 = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

here mass of the object is given as

m = \frac{W}{g}

\omega_0 = \sqrt{\frac{220}{\frac{30}{9.81}}}

\omega_0 = 8.48 rad/s

angular frequency of applied force is given as

\omega = 2\pi f

\omega = 2\pi(10.5) = 65.97 rad/s

now we have

0.03 = \frac{F_0}{3.06(65.97^2 - 8.48^2)}

F_0 = 393 N

On a part-time job, you are asked to bring a cylindrical iron rod of density 7800 kg/m3, length 88.8 cm and diameter 2.30 cm fro
vichka [17]

Answer:

w = 28.25 N

Explanation:

To do this, we need to use two expressions.

First, to calculate the weight of any object, we use the 2nd law of newton. In this case, the weight is:

w = m*g  (1)

However we do not have the mass of the rod. We need to calculate that. To calculate the mass, we'll use the expression of density which is:

d = m/V  

From here, we solve for mass:

m = d * V   (2)

Finally, we can know the volume of the rod, because is cylindrical, therefore, the volume of a cylinder is:

V = π * r² * h   (3)

So, in resume, we need to solve for the volume of the rod, then, the mass ans finally the weight. Let's calculate the volume of the rod, converting the units of centimeter to meters, just dividing by 100:

diameter = 2.3 cm ---> radius = 2.3/2 = 1.15 cm -----> 0.0115 m

Length or height = 88.8 cm ----> 0.888 m

Replacing in (3):

V = π * (0.0115)² * 0.888

V = 3.69x10⁻⁴ m

Now, let's use (2) to calculate the mass:

m = 7800 * 3.69x10⁻⁴

m = 2.88 kg

Finally for the weight, we'll use expression (1):

w = 2.88 * 9.81

<h2>w = 28.25 N</h2><h2>And this is the weight of the rod.</h2>
