A 8.0×104kgspaceship is at rest in deep space. Its thrusters provide a force of 1200kN. The spaceship fires its thrusters for 20

s, then costs for 12km. How long does it take the spaceship to coast this distance

Answer:

Time = 40 s

It will take the spaceship 40s to coast that distance.

Explanation:

Using the impulse momentum equation;

Impulse = change in momentum

Ft = m(∆v) ........1

Given;

Force F = 1200kN

time of action t = 20s

Mass of spaceship m = 8.0×10^4 kg

∆v = change in velocity

Substituting the values into equation 1;

1200kN × 20s =8.0×10^4 kg × ∆v

∆v = 1200000×20/80000

∆v = 300 m/s

Since it was initially at rest, V0 = 0

Final velocity V2 = 300 + 0

V2 = 300m/s

Time To travel 12 km,

Time = distance/speed

Distance = 12 km = 12000m

Speed = 300m/s

Time = 12000/300

Time = 40 s

It will take the spaceship 40s to coast that distance.

1) La corriente de un inductor de 90.0 mH cambia con el transcurso del tiempo de la forma I = 1.00 t 2 – 6.00 t (en unidades del
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

a)   E_{L} = -360 V , b)      t = 3 s

Explanation:

The electromotive force in an inductor is

           E_{L} = - L dI/ dt

in the exercise they give us the relation of i (t)

            i (t) = 1.00 t² -6.00t

we carry out the derivative and substitute

          E_{L} = - L (2.00 2t - 6.00 1)

a) the electromotive force at t = 1.00 s

          E_{L} = - 90.0 (4.00 1 - 6.00)

         E_{L} = -360 V

b) for t = 4 s

         E_{L}= - 90 (2 4 2 - 6 4)

         E_{L} = - 720 V

c) for the induced electromotive force to zero, the amount between paracentesis must be zero

           (2.00 t2 - 6.00t) = 0

            t (2.0 t-6.00) = 0

the solutions of this equation are

            t = 0

            2 t -6 = 0

            t = 3 s

to have a different solution the trivial (all zero) we must total t = 3 s

What is the relationship that exist between the mole molar mass and avogadro number?
Elenna [48]
Avogadros number is the definition of a mole. SO a mole is 1 avogadros number of atoms. molar mass is how much 1 avogadros number of atoms weighs. each element on the periodic table has a different mass, so 1 mole of each of the elements has a different molar mass.
