The sun is at the solstices on roughly June 21 and December 21.
June 21 is the "Summer" solstice in the Northern hemisphere.
At that time, the sun is directly overhead at a point on the Tropic
of Cancer, about 23.5° North of the equator.
December 21 is the "Summer" solstice in the Southern hemisphere.
At that time, the sun is directly overhead at a point on the Tropic
of Capricorn, about 23.5° South of the equator.
Answer:
Half of its value prior to the initiation of the discharge
Explanation:
We know the formulas for momentum and energy. But they both involve the mass of
the object, and we don't know the mass of the baseball. What can we do ?
It's not a catastrophe. The question only asks which one is bigger. If we're clever,
we can answer that without ever knowing how much the momentum or the energy
actually is. We know that both baseballs have the same mass, so let's just call it
' M ' and not worry about what it really is.
<u>Momentum of anything = (mass) x (speed)</u>
Momentum of the first baseball = (M) x (4 m/s) = 4M
Momentum of the second one = (M) x (16 m/s) = 16M
The second baseball has 4 times as much momentum as the first one has.
<u>Kinetic energy of anything = 1/2 (mass) x (speed squared)</u>
KE of the first baseball = 1/2 (M) x (4 squared) = 8M
KE of the second one = 1/2 (M) x (16 squared) = 128M
The second baseball has 16 times as much kinetic energy as the first one has.
A :-) F = mv^2 by r
Given - m = 500 kg
v = 80.0 m/s
r = 450 m
Solution -
F = mv^2 by r
F = 500 x (80)^2 by 450
F = 500 x 6400 by 450
( cut 500 and 450 because 5 x 100 = 5 , 5 x 90 = 450 and also 90 and 6400 because 90 x 70 = 6400 )
F = 100 x 70
F = 7000
.:. The centripetal force is 7000 N
