The acceleration of the jet is $11.4 m/s^2$

Explanation:

Since the jet motion is a uniformly accelerated motion (=constant acceleration), we can use the following suvat equation:

$v^2-u^2=2as$

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

s is the displacement

For the jet in this problem, we have

u = 0 (it starts from rest)

v = 40 m/s (final velocity)

s = 70 m (length of the runway)

Solving for a, we find the acceleration:

$a=\frac{v-u}{t}=\frac{40^2-0}{2(70)}=11.4 m/s^2$

What would be your estimate of the age of the universe if you measured a value for Hubble's constant of H0 = 30 km/s/Mly ? You c

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

The age of the universe would be 9.9 billion years

Explanation:

We can calculate an estimate for the age of the Universe from Hubble's Law. Let's suppose the distance between two galaxies is D and the apparent velocity with which they are separating from each other is v. At some point, the galaxies were touching, and we can consider that time the moment of the Big Bang.

Thus, the time it has taken for the galaxies to reach their current separations is:

$\displaystyle{t=D/v}$

and from Hubble's Law:

$v =H_0D$

Therefore:

$\displaystyle{t=D/v=D/(H_0\times D)=1/H_0}$

With the given value for the Hubble's constant we have:

$H_0=(30\ km/s/Mly) \times (1 Mly/ 9.461 \times 10^{18} km) = 3.17\times 10^{-18}\ 1/s$

and thus,

$t=1/H_0 = 1/(3.17\times 10^{-18} 1/s) = 0.315 \times 10^{18}\ s \approx 9988584474.8858\ years \approx 9.9\ billion\ years$

A supertanker filled with oil has a total mass of 6.1 x108 kg. If the dimensions of the ship are those of a rectangular box 300

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

The bottom of the sea is 25 m below sea level.

Explanation:

Given data

Mass = 6.1 × $10^{8} \ kg$

$\rho_{sea} = 1020\ \frac{kg}{m^{3} }$

We know that Buoyant force on the tank is equal to gravity force of the tank.

$F_B = F_g$

$(\rho_{Fluid}) (g) (V_{disp}) = m g$

$(\rho_{Fluid}) (V_{disp}) = m$

1020 × $V_{disp}$ = 6.1 × $10^{8}$

$V_{disp}$ = 598039.21 $m^{3}$

We know that

$V_{disp}$ = W × L × H

598039.21 = 300 × 80 × H

H = 25 m

Therefore the bottom of the sea is 25 m below sea level.

Explain the following defects of a simple electric cell:

eimsori [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

The two major defects of simple electric cells causes current supplied to be for short time. These defects are: polarization and local action.

a. Polarization: This is a defect caused by an accumulation of hydrogen bubbles at the positive electrode of the cell. It can be prevented by the use of vent, using a hydrogen absorbing material or the use of a depolarizer.

b. Local Action: This is the gradual wearing away of the electrode due to impurities in the zinc plate. It can be controlled by the amalgamation of the zinc plate before it is used.

Answer:

r = 4.21 10⁷ m

Explanation:

Kepler's third law It is an application of Newton's second law where the forces of the gravitational force, obtaining

T² = ( $\frac{4\pi }{G M_s}$ ) r³ (1)

in this case the period of the season is

T₁ = 93 min (60 s / 1 min) = 5580 s

r₁ = 410 + 6370 = 6780 km

r₁ = 6.780 10⁶ m

for the satellite

T₂ = 24 h (3600 s / 1h) = 86 400 s

if we substitute in equation 1

T² = K r³

K = T₁²/r₁³

K = $\frac{ 5580^2}{ (6.780 10^6)^2}$

K = 9.99 10⁻¹⁴ s² / m³

we can replace the satellite values

r³ = T² / K

r³ = 86400² / 9.99 10⁻¹⁴

r = ∛(7.4724 10²²)

r = 4.21 10⁷ m

this distance is from the center of the earth

A particle of charge 2.0 x 10^-8C experiences an upward force of magnitude 4.0 x10^-6 when it is placed in a particular point in

koban [17]

Answer:

a) The electric field at that point is $2.0\times 10^{2}$ newtons per coulomb.

b) The electric force is $2.0\times 10^{-6}$ newtons.

Explanation:

a) Let suppose that electric field is uniform, then the following electric field can be applied:

$E = \frac{F_{e}}{q}$ (1)

Where:

$E$ - Electric field, measured in newtons per coulomb.

$F_{e}$ - Electric force, measured in newtons.

$q$ - Electric charge, measured in coulombs.

If we know that $F_{e} = 4.0\times 10^{-6}\,N$ and $q = 2.0\times 10^{-8}\,C$ , then the electric field at that point is:

$E = \frac{4.0\times 10^{-6}\,N}{2.0\times 10^{-8}\,C}$

$E = 2.0\times 10^{2}\,\frac{N}{C}$

The electric field at that point is $2.0\times 10^{2}$ newtons per coulomb.

b) If we know that $E = 2.0\times 10^{2}\,\frac{N}{C}$ and $q = 1.0\times 10^{-8}\,C$ , then the electric force is:

$F_{e} = E\cdot q$

$F_{e} = \left(2.0\times 10^{2}\,\frac{N}{C} \right)\cdot (1.0\times 10^{-8}\,C)$

$F_{e} = 2.0\times 10^{-6}\,N$

The electric force is $2.0\times 10^{-6}$ newtons.
