Answer:

Explanation:

Given:

M₂ = 2 × M₁

R₂ = 2 × R₁

Escape velocity, V = √2GM/R

Let V₁ and V₂ be the escape velocity of the first and second planet respectively.

V₁ = √2GM₁/R₁

V₂ = √2GM₂/R₂

Equating V₁ and V₂, we have:

(V₁)^2 × R₁ /(2 × M₁) = (V₂)^2 × M₂/(2 × R₂)

(V₁)^2 × R₁ /(2 × M₁) = (V₂)^2 × 2 × R₁ /(2 × 2 × M₁)

(V₁)^2 = (V₂)^2 × (2 × M₁)/R₁ × 2 × R₁/(4 × M₁)

(V₁)^2 = (V₂)^2

V₁ = V₂

Answer:

The escape speed on the other planet is V

Explanation:

Escape velocity V = √2GM/R where M = mass of planet and R = radius of planet. G = gravitational constant

Let  V₁ and V₂ be the escape speeds on planet one and two respectively.

if V₁ = √2GM₁/R₁ and V₂ = √2GM₂/R₂ and M₂ = 2M₁ and R₂ = 2R₁ (since it is twice the size of the first planet)

V₂ = √2GM₂/R₂ = V₂ = √(2G × 2M₁/2R₁) = √2GM₁/R₁ = V₁ = V

So the escape speed on the other planet is V

Using energy considerations, calculate the average force (in N) a 67.0 kg sprinter exerts backward on the track to accelerate fr
Illusion [34]

Answer:

F_{sprinter}=110.4N

Explanation:

Given data

Mass m=67.0 kg

Final Speed vf=8.00 m/s

Initial Speed vi=2.00 m/s

Distance d=25.0 m

Force F=30.0 N

From work-energy theorem we know that the work done equals the change in kinetic energy

W=ΔK=Kf-Ki=1/2mvf²-1/2mvi²

And

W=F_{total}.d

So

W=1/2mv_{f}^2-1/2mv_{i}^2\\F_{total}=\frac{1/2mv_{f}^2-1/2mv_{i}^2}{d} \\F_{total}=\frac{1/2(67.0kg)(8.00m/s)^2-1/2(67.0kg)(2.00m/s)^2}{25.0m} \\F_{total}=80.4N

and we know that the force the sprinter exerted Fsprinter the force of the headwind Fwind=30.0N

So

F_{sprinter}=F_{total}+F_{wind}\\F_{sprinter}=80.4N+30N\\F_{sprinter}=110.4N

An electron is initially at rest in a uniform electric field having a strength of 1.85 × 106 V/m. It is then released and accele
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

W = 462.5 keV

Explanation:

As we know that when electron moved in electric field then work done by electric field must be equal to the change in kinetic energy of the electron

So here we have to find the work done by electric field on moving electron

So we have

F = qE

F = (1.6 \times 10^{-19})(1.85 \times 10^6)

F = 2.96 \times 10^{-13} N

now the distance moved by the electron is given as

d = 0.25 m

so we have

W = F.d

W = (1.6 \times 10^{-19})(1.85 \times 10^6)(0.25)

W = 7.4 \times 10^{-14} J

now we have to convert it into keV units

so we have

1 keV = 1.6 \times 10^{-16} J

W = 462.5 keV

Two vectors of magnitudes 30 units and 70 units are added to each other. What are possible results of this addition? (section 3.
Yanka [14]

Answer:

the correct answer is option C which is 50 units.

Explanation:

given,

two vector of magnitude = 30 units and of 70 units

to calculate resultants vector = \sqrt{a^2+b^2+2 a b cos\theta}

cos θ value varies from -1 to 1

so, resultant vector

=\sqrt{a^2+b^2-2 a b cos\theta}\ to\ \sqrt{a^2+b^2+ 2 a b cos\theta}

a = 30 units    and  b = 70 units

= \sqrt{30^2+70^2-2\times 30\times 70}\ to\ \sqrt{30^2+70^2+2\times 30\times 70}

=   40 units to 100 units

hence, the correct answer is option C which is 50 units.
