We can answer the problem by Snell's Law:

Snell's law<span> (also known as </span>Snell<span>–Descartes </span>law<span> and the </span>law<span> of refraction) is a formula used to describe the relationship between the angles of incidence and refraction, when referring to light or other waves passing through a boundary between two different isotropic media, such as water, glass, or air.</span>

After a package is dropped from the plane, how long will it take for it to reach sea level from the time it is dropped? assume t
Ivenika [448]

Time taken by the package to reach the sea level= 13.7 s

height=h=925 m

initial velocity along vertical= vi=0

acceleration due to gravity=g=9.8 m/s^2

using the kinematic equation h= Vi*t + 1/2 gt^2

925=0(t)+1/2 (9.8)t^2

4.9 t^2=925

t= 13.7 s

Planets are not uniform inside. Normally, they are densest at the center and have decreasing density outward toward the surface.
elena-s [515]

Answer:

g=13.42\frac{m}{s^2}

Explanation:

1) Notation and info given

\rho_{center}=13000 \frac{kg}{m^3} represent the density at the center of the planet

\rho_{surface}=2100 \frac{kg}{m^3} represent the densisty at the surface of the planet

r represent the radius

r_{earth}=6.371x10^{6}m represent the radius of the Earth

2) Solution to the problem

So we can use a model to describe the density as function of  the radius

r=0, \rho(0)=\rho_{center}=13000 \frac{kg}{m^3}

r=6.371x10^{6}m, \rho(6.371x10^{6}m)=\rho_{surface}=2100 \frac{kg}{m^3}

So we can create a linear model in the for y=b+mx, where the intercept b=\rho_{center}=13000 \frac{kg}{m^3} and the slope would be given by m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{\rho_{surface}-\rho_{center}}{r_{earth}-0}

So then our linear model would be

\rho (r)=\rho_{center}+\frac{\rho_{surface}-\rho_{center}}{r_{earth}}r

Since the goal for the problem is find the gravitational acceleration we need to begin finding the total mass of the planet, and for this we can use a finite element and spherical coordinates. The volume for the differential element would be dV=r^2 sin\theta d\phi d\theta dr.

And the total mass would be given by the following integral

M=\int \rho (r) dV

Replacing dV we have the following result:

M=\int_{0}^{2\pi}d\phi \int_{0}^{\pi}sin\theta d\theta \int_{0}^{r_{earth}}(r^2 \rho_{center}+\frac{\rho_{surface}-\rho_{center}}{r_{earth}}r)

We can solve the integrals one by one and the final result would be the following

M=4\pi(\frac{r^3_{earth}\rho_{center}}{3}+\frac{r^4_{earth}}{4} \frac{\rho_{surface}-\rho_{center}}{r_{earth}})

Simplyfind this last expression we have:

M=\frac{4\pi\rho_{center}r^3_{earth}}{3}+\pi r^3_{earth}(\rho_{surface}-\rho_{center})

M=\pi r^3_{earth}(\frac{4}{3}\rho_{center}+\rho_{surface}-\rho_{center})

M=\pi r^3_{earth}[\rho_{surface}+\frac{1}{3}\rho_{center}]

And replacing the values we got:

M=\pi (6.371x10^{6}m)^2(\frac{1}{3}13000 \frac{kg}{m^3}+2100 \frac{kg}{m^3})=8.204x10^{24}kg

And now that for any shape the gravitational acceleration is given by:

g=\frac{MG}{r^2_{earth}}=\frac{(6.67408x10^{-11}\frac{m^3}{kgs^2})*8.204x10^{24}kg}{(6371000m)^2}=13.48\frac{m}{s^2}

The drag force that resists the motion of a car traveling at 80 km h^- 1 is 300 N.
kobusy [5.1K]

The power require to keep the car traveling is 6,666 W.

The power of the engine at the given efficiency is 3,999.6 W.

<h3>What is Instantaneous power?</h3>

This the product of force and velocity of the given object.

The power require to keep the car traveling is calculated as follows;

P = Fv

P = 300\ N \ \times  \ \frac{80 \ kmh^{-1}}{3.6 \ km h^{-1}/m/s} \\\\&#10;P = 300 \ N \times 22.22 \ m/s\\\\&#10;P = 6,666 \ W

The power of the engine at the given efficiency is calculated as follows;

E = \frac{P_{out}}{P _{in}} \times 100\%\\\\&#10;60\% = \frac{P_{out}}{6,666} \times 100\%\\\\&#10;0.6 = \frac{P_{out}}{6,666} \\\\&#10;P_{out} = 3,999.6 \ W
