In 1865, Jules Verne proposed sending men to the Moon by firing a space capsule from a 220-m-long cannon with final speed of 10.

97 km/s. What would have been the unrealistically large acceleration experienced by the space travelers during their launch? (A human can stand an acceleration of 15g for a short time.) m/s2 Compare your answer with the free-fall acceleration, 9.80 m/s2 (i.e. how many times stronger than gravity is this force?). g

Answer:

The unrealistically large acceleration experienced by the space travelers during their launch is 2.7 x 10⁵ m/s².

How many times stronger than gravity is this force? 2.79 x 10⁴ g.

Explanation:

given information:

s = 220 m

final speed, vf = 10.97 km/s = 10970 m/s

g = 9.8 m/s²

he unrealistically large acceleration experienced by the space travelers during their launch

vf² = v₀²+2as, v₀ = 0

vf² = 2as

a =vf²/2s

  = (10970)²/(2x220)

  = 2.7 x 10⁵ m/s²

Compare your answer with the free-fall acceleration

a/g = 2.7 x 10⁵/9.8

a/g = 2.79 x 10⁴

a = 2.79 x 10⁴ g

The most recent evidence supporting the theory of plate tectonics would include A) GPS monitoring of plate speeds and movements.
Whitepunk [10]

A) GPS monitoring of plate speeds and movements.

Explanation:

The most recent evidence supporting the theory of plate tectonics would be GPS monitoring of plate speeds and movements.

A GPS is a Global Positioning System made up of series of components.

  • Plate tectonics theory is the movement of the earth's lithosphere relative to one another.
  • The recent advances uses a GPS system to monitor real-time movement of the plates.
  • The GPS system is made up of a system of satellite in space that communicates real-times locations to sensors on the earth surface.
  • From the sensors, observatory stations can know and duly observe how plates are moving.

A single-turn circular loop of wire of radius 45 mm lies in a plane perpendicular to a spatially uniform magnetic field. During
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

Magnitude of induced emf is 0.00635 V

Explanation:

Radius of circular loop r = 45 mm = 0.045 m

Area of circular loop A=\pi r^2

A=3.14\times 0.045^2=0.00635m^2

Magnetic field is increases from 250 mT to 350 mT

Therefore change in magnetic field dB=250-350=100mT

Emf induced is given by

e=-N\frac{d\Phi }{dt}=-NA\frac{dB}{dt}

e=-0.00635\times \frac{100\times 10^{-3}}{0.10}=-0.00635V

Magnitude of induced emf is equal to 0.00635 V

When air resistance equals the weight of an object, the object has reached
MissTica

Answer:

When air resistance equals the weight of an object, the object has reached free fall.

Explanation:

  • When an object has only force acting on it as gravity then, it experiences free fall.
  • During free fall all the forces except gravity is balanced by one another.
  • In the question, object's weight is balanced by air resistance so it is in the state of free fall.
  • At the null point of free fall, object experiences weightlessness i.e. it feels like object is not attracted by any force.

I need help on ideas for a science project.. (highschool ideas)
Nana76 [90]

A research question that would complete the third question you need that are related to the first 2 questions which are:

  • “what type of masks help prevent fog on glasses when breathing?”
  • “does a mask’s material affect the level of fog on glasses as an effect of breathing?”

Would be: "Are there any available masks that could prevent fog on glasses that could be improved upon"?

This new research question would help you find out if there is an already existing mask that could be made better.

<h3>What is a Research Question?</h3>

This refers to "a question that a research project sets out to answer". and seeks to give answers to particular phenomena.

Hence, we can see that the new research question Would be: "Are there any available masks that could prevent fog on glasses that could be improved upon"?

This new research question would help you find out if there is an already existing mask that could be made better.
