A careful photographic survey of Jupiter’s moon Io by the spacecraft Voyager 1 showed active volcanoes spewing liquid sulfur to

heights of 70 km above the surface of this moon. If the value of g on Io is 2.0 m/s2 , estimate the speed with which the liquid sulfur left the volcano.

Answer:

529.15 m/s

Explanation:

h = Maximum height = 70000 m

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 2 m/s²

m = Mass of sulfur

As the potential and kinetic energies are conserved

$mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{v^2}{2g}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2gh}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 2\times 70000}\\\Rightarrow v=529.15\ m/s$

The speed with which the liquid sulfur left the volcano is 529.15 m/s

In the woman's mouth if

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

hi mate,

interesting question, first of all the pressure is determined by using the following formula:

Pg = p * G * h

where p is the density of the liquid, G is the gravity and h is the height difference, in you case you have:

p = 1015 kg/m3

G = 9.8m/s2

h = 0.085 m

insert these values into the equation above:

Pg = 1015 kg/m3 * 9.8m/s2 * 0.085 m = 849.81 kg·m-1·s-2 or 849.81 pascal

hope it helps, :-)

Find the angle formed by two forces of 7N and 15N respectively if its result is worth 20N

nadezda [96]

First, you need to make certain assumptions before solving this question. Why? Because there are no information given about the direction of these forces. In such questions as above, ALWAYS make the following assumptions:

1) Take first force, say $F_{1}$ , and assume that it is pointing towards the x-direction.

Let us take the 7N force! By keeping the above assumption in our minds, the force vector would be like:
$F_{1}$ = $7i$ , where $i$ = Unit vector in the x-direction.

2) Take the second force, say $F_{2}$ , and assume that it is making an angle $\alpha$ with the first force $F_{1}$ .

Let us take the 15N force! By keeping the above assumption in our minds, the forces vector would be like:

$F_{2} = (15*cos \alpha)i + (15*sin \alpha )j$

Now from simple vector addition, we know that,
$F_{R} = F_{1} + F_{2}$ --- (A)

Where $F_{R}$ = Resultant vector.
NOTE: In equation (A), all forces are in vector notation. Assume that there is an arrow head on top of them.

Let us find $F_{1}+F_{2}$ first!
$F_{1}+F_{2}$ =   $7i+(15*cos \alpha)i + (15*sin \alpha )j$

=> $F_{1}+F_{2}$ =   $(7+15*cos \alpha)i + (15*sin \alpha )j$

Now the magnitude of $F_{1}+F_{2}$ is,
| $F_{1}+F_{2}$ | = $\sqrt{ (7+ 15*cos \alpha)^{2} + (15*sin \alpha )^{2}}$

=> | $F_{1}+F_{2}$ | = $\sqrt{ 49 + 225*(cos \alpha)^{2} + 210*(cos \alpha)+ 255*(sin \alpha )^{2}}$

Since $(sin \alpha)^{2} + (cos \alpha)^{2} = 1$ , therefore,

=> | $F_{1}+F_{2}$ | = $\sqrt{ 49 + 225 + 210*(cos \alpha)}$

Since  | $F_{1}+F_{2}$ | = | $F_{R}$ |, and the magnitude of the resultant force is 20N, therefore,

| $F_{R}$ | = | $F_{1}+F_{2}$ |
20 = $\sqrt{ 49 + 225 + 210*(cos \alpha)}$

Take square on both sides,
400 = $49 + 225 + 210*(cos \alpha)$
$(cos \alpha) = \frac{3}{5}$

$\alpha = 53.13^{o}$

Ans: Angle formed by the two forces, 7N and 15N, is: 53.13°

How are strong nuclear forces and weak nuclear forces alike

Nesterboy [21]

Even tho one is stronger then the other... they are both alike because they are still nuclear forces.

A hungry monkey is sitting at the top of a tree 69 m above ground level. A person standing on the ground wants to feed the monke

sasho [114]

Answer:

Well if you want to be sure you should just throw it to the ground so then when he lands he can catch it.

If the cannon throws the banana with the same force the monkey falls

(m.g=Fz <=> m.9,81N/kg=...N).

Then the throw will slow down because of the gravitational pull.

Because the banana cannon is selfmade you can choose what mass the bananas in question have, so let that be the same as the monkeys.

The monkey falls with the speed of 9,81m.s => so it takes the monkey 7,1s to land.

If the cannon can shoot the banana at the same speed the monkey falls then they would cross in the middle.

So to do so you need to throw the bananas with a speed of at least 9,81m.s

Soo ... throw them with a force of that is greater then the gravitational pull and things will work out.

I'm sorry I don't know why I wrote all of this irrelevant information it's 2:21 right now and I'm tired.

kind regards

An unknown radioactive sample is observed to decrease in activity by a factor of two in a one hour period. What is its half-life

elena55 [62]

Answer:

The half-life is $t_{1/2} = 1.005 h$

Explanation:

Using the decay equation we have:

$A=A_{0}e^{-\lambda t}$

Where:

λ is the decay constant
A(0) the initial activity
A is the activity at time t

We know the activity decrease by a factor of two in a one hour period (t = 1 h), it means that $A = \frac{A_{0}}{2}$

$\frac{A_{0}}{2}=A_{0}e^{-\lambda*1 h}$

$0.5=e^{-\lambda*1 h}$

Taking the natural logarithm on each side we have:

$ln(0.5)=-\lambda$

$\lambda=0.69 h^{-1}$

Now, the relationship between the decay constant λ and the half-life t(1/2) is:

$\lambda = \frac{ln(2)}{t_{1/2}}$

$t_{1/2} = \frac{ln(2)}{\lambda}$

$t_{1/2} = \frac{ln(2)}{0.69}$

$t_{1/2} = 1.005 h$

I hope it helps you!
