Mountains, tops of buildings, and high-flying aircraft are all part of Earth's atmosphere, no matter how high they are. On the other hand, space doesn't belong to our atmosphere, it is outside of it. Having this in mind, the best location to place a telescope used to observe x-rays from stars is in space.

A projectile is launched at an angle above the
gtnhenbr [62]
The first rule of vectors is that the horizontal and vertical components are separate. Disregarding air resistance, the only thing we have to worry about is gravity.

The appropriate suvat to use for the vertical component is v = u +at
I will take a to be -9.81, you may have to change it to be 10 if your qualification likes g to be 10.

v = 30 + (-9.81x2)
v = 30 - 19.62
=10.38m/s

Therefore we know that after 2.0 s the vertical component will be 10.38ms^-1, ie 10m/s as the answers given are all to 2sf.

The horizontal component is completely separate to the vertical component and since there is no air resistance, it will remain constant throughout the projectiles trajectory. Therefore it will remain at 40ms^-1.

Combining this together we get:
(1) vx=40m/s and vy=10m/s

A piston–cylinder assembly contains 5.0 kg of air, initially at 2.0 bar, 30 oF. The air undergoes a process to a state where the
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

The work and heat transfer for this process is = 270.588 kJ

Explanation:

Take properties of air from an ideal gas table.  R = 0.287 kJ/kg-k

The Pressure-Volume relation is <em>PV</em> = <em>C</em>

<em>T = C </em> for isothermal process

Calculating for the work done in isothermal process

<em>W</em> = <em>P</em>₁<em>V</em>₁ ln[\frac{P_{1} }{P_{2} }]

   = <em>mRT</em>₁ln[\frac{P_{1} }{P_{2} }]      [∵<em>pV</em> = <em>mRT</em>]

   = (5) (0.287) (272.039) ln[\frac{2.0}{1.0}]

   = 270.588 kJ

Since the process is isothermal, Internal energy change is zero

Δ<em>U</em> = mc_{v}(T_{2}  - T_{1} ) = 0

From 1st law of thermodynamics

Q = Δ<em>U  </em>+ <em>W</em>

   = 0 + 270.588

   = 270.588 kJ

A large asteroid of mass 98700 kg is at rest far away from any planets or stars. A much smaller asteroid, of mass 780 kg, is in
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

1.81 x 10^-4 m/s

Explanation:

M = 98700 kg

m = 780 kg

d = 201 m

Let the speed of second asteroid is v.

The gravitational force between the two asteroids is balanced by the centripetal force on the second asteroid.

\frac{GMm}{d^{2}}=\frac{mv^2}{d}

v=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{d}}

Where, G be the universal gravitational constant.

G = 6.67 x 10^-11 Nm^2/kg^2

v=\sqrt{\frac{6.67 \times 10^{-11}\times 98700}{201}}

v = 1.81 x 10^-4 m/s

A tennis player swings her 1000 g racket with a speed of 11 m/s. She hits a 60 g tennis ball that was approaching her at a speed
shusha [124]

Answer:

- 3.72 Ns.

9.44 m/s

Explanation:

mass of racket, M = 1000 g = 1 kg

mass of ball, m = 60 g = 0.06 kg

initial velocity of racket, U = 11 m/s

initial velocity of ball, u = 18 m/s

final velocity of ball, v = - 44 m/s

Let the final velocity of the racket is V.

(a) Momentum is defined as the product of mass and velocity of the ball.

initial momentum of the ball = m x u = 0.06 x 18 = 1.08 Ns

Final momentum of the ball = m x v = 0.06 x (- 44) = - 2.64 Ns

Change in momentum of the ball = final momentum - initial momentum

                                                        = - 2.64 - 1.08 = - 3.72 Ns

Thus, the change in momentum of the ball is - 3.72 Ns.

(b) By use of conservation of momentum

initial momentum of racket and ball = final momentum of racket and ball

1 x 11 + 0.06 x 18 =  1 x V - 0.06 x 44

12.08 = V - 2.64

V = 9.44 m/s

Thus, the final velocity of the racket afetr the impact is 9.44 m/s .
