Answer:

Explanation:

we know that

s=vt here v is the speed and s is distance covered by the signals

given data

v=3*10^8

t=10 min we have to convert it into seconds

1 minute=60 seconds

so

10 minutes =10*60/1 =600 seconds

now putting the value of v and t we can find the value of s

s=vt

s=3*10^8*600

s=1.8*10^11m

i hope this will help you

Using an unmanned rocket to visit the space station requires 85.2 trillion BTU of energy. The best fuel for the mission will hav
Illusion [34]
We shall convert all of the densities to lbs/gal, so the product of
BTU/lbs and lbs/gal gives us the basis of comparison, which was "ratio of energy to volume".
grams / ml x 1 lbs/454 grams → 1 lbs/ 454 ml
1 lbs/454 ml x 3785.41 ml/gal → 3785.41 lbs/454gal
Conversion of g/ml = 8.34 lbs/gal
Looking at each fuel:

Kerosene:
18,500 x (8.34 x 0.82) = 126,517 BTU/gal

Gasoline:
20,900 x (8.34 x 0.737) = 128,463 BTU/gal

Ethanol:
11,500 x (8.34 x 0.789) = 75,673 BTU/gal

Hydrogen:
61,000 x (8.34 x 0.071) = 36,120 BTU/gal

The best fuel in terms of energy to volume ratio is Gasoline.
Gallons required:
BTU needed / BTU per gallon
= 85.2 x 10⁹ / 128,463
= 6.6 x 10⁵ gallons

Halley's comet orbits the sun roughly once every 76 years. It comes very close to the surface of the Sun on its closest approach
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

r1 = 5*10^10 m , r2 = 6*10^12 m

v1 = 9*10^4 m/s

From conservation of energy

K1 +U1 = K2 +U2

0.5mv1^2 - GMm/r1 = 0.5mv2^2 - GMm/r2

0.5v1^2 - GM/r1 = 0.5v2^2 - GM/r2

M is mass of sun = 1.98*10^30 kg

G = 6.67*10^-11 N.m^2/kg^2

0.5*(9*10^4)^2 - (6.67*10^-11*1.98*10^30/(5*10^10)) = 0.5v2^2 - (6.67*10^-11*1.98*10^30/(6*10^12))

v2 = 5.35*10^4 m/s

Two uniform, solid cylinders of radius R and total mass M are connected along their common axis by a short, light rod and rest o
sveta [45]

Explanation:

A) To prove the motion of the center of mass of the cylinders is simple harmonic:

System diagram for given situation is shown in attached Fig. 1

We can prove the motion of the center of mass of the cylinders is simple harmonic if

a_{x} = -\omega^{2}  x

where aₓ is acceleration when attached cylinders move in horizontal direction:

<h3>PROOF:</h3>

rotational inertia for cylinders  is given as:

                                  I=\frac{1}{2}MR^{2} -----(1)

Newton's second law for angular motion is:

                                             ∑τ = Iα ------(2)

For linear motion in horizontal direction it is:

                                             ∑Fₓ = Maₓ ------ (3)

By definition of torque:

                                               τ  = RF --------(4)        

Put (4) and (1) in (2)

                                       RF=\frac{1}{2}MR^{2}\alpha

                                       RF=\frac{1}{2}MR^{2}\alpha

from Fig 3 it can be seen that fs is force by which the cylinders roll without slipping as they oscillate

So above equation becomes

                                   f_{s}=\frac{1}{2}MR\alpha------ (5)

As angular acceleration is related to linear by:

                                          a= R\alpha

Eq (5) becomes

                                    f_{s}=\frac{1}{2}Ma_{x}---- (6)

aₓ shows displacement in horizontal direction

From (3)

                                              ∑Fₓ = Maₓ

Fₓ is sum of fs and restoring force that spring exerts:

                                  \sum F_{x} = f_{s} - kx ----(7)

Put (7) in (3)

                                  f_{s} - kx  = Ma_{x}[/tex] -----(8)

Using (6) in (8)

                               \frac{1}{2}Ma_{x} - kx =Ma_{x}

                                     a_{x} = \frac{2k}{3M} x --- (9)

For spring mass system

                                  a= -\omega^{2} x ----- (10)

Equating (9) and (10)

                                  \omega^{2} = \frac{2k}{3M}

\omega = \sqrt{ \frac{2k}{3M}}

then (9) becomes

                                a_{x} = - \omega^{2}x

(The minus sign says that x and  aₓ  have opposite directions as shown in fig 3)

This proves that the motion of the center of mass of the cylinders is simple harmonic.

<h3 /><h3>B) Time Period</h3>

Time period is related to angular frequency as:

                                   T=\frac{2\pi }{\omega}

                                  T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{3M}{2k}
