Answer:

Explanation:

A ball is thrown vertically upward with a certain Kinetic Energy in the absence of air resistance and while returning it experiences air resistance.

Air resistance causes the ball to lose its kinetic energy as it provides resistance which will convert some of its kinetic energy to heat energy.

So in a way total energy is conserved but not kinetic energy as some portion of it is lost in the form of heat.

This item is solved through the concept of the conservation of momentum which states that the momentum before and after collision should be equal. 
                                   momentum = mass x velocity
            (1,600 kg)(16 m/s) + (1.0x10^3 kg)(10 m/s) = (1600 + 1000 kg)(x)
The value of x is 13.69 m/s. Thus, their final speed is approximately letter D. 14 m/s.

Setler [38]

Answer:

a)  M = 4,997 10²⁰ kg ,  b)   T = 1.43 10³ s

Explanation:

a) This exercise should be solved in several parts, let's start by calculating the acceleration of gravity of this planet from kinematics

          v = v₀ - a t

As it indicates that there is no atmosphere, the friction force is zero and the initial and final velocity have the same module, but the opposite direction

         a = (v₀ - v) / t

         a = (15 - (-15)) /9.00 = 30/9

         a = 3.33 m / s²

Now we use Newton's second law where force is the force of universal attraction

          F = m a

         G m M / r² = m a

         M = a r² / G

Let's calculate

         M = 3.33 (1.00 10⁵)² / 6.67 10⁻¹¹

         M = 4,997 10²⁰ kg

b) The period of the ship's orbit

In this case we have a centripetal acceleration

The radius of the orbit is the radius of the plant plus the height of the ship from the surface

         R = R_{m} + h

         R = 1 10⁵ + 2.00 10⁴

         R = 12 10⁴ m

         F = m a

        G m M / R² = m a

Centripetal acceleration is

         a = v² / R

The orbit is circular therefore the velocity module is constant, so we can use the equation of uniform motion, where the distance is the length of the orbit, for a circle

        d = 2π R

        v = d / t

        v = 2π R / T

Let's replace

        G m M / R² = m (2π R / T)² / R

        G M = R³ 4π² / T²

        T² = 4π² R³ / G M

       T² = (4π² (12 10⁴)³ / (6.67 10⁻¹¹ 4,997 10²⁰)

       T² = 6.82 10¹⁶ / 3.33 10¹⁰

       T = √ (2,048 10⁶)

       T = 1.43 10³ s
