A rocket has landed on planet x, which has half the radius of earth. An astronaut onboard the rocket weighs twice as much on pla
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

Option (c) u0

Explanation:

The escape velocity has a formula as:

V = √(2gR)

Where V is the escape velocity,

g is the acceleration due to gravity

R is the radius of the earth.

Now, from the question, we were told that the escape velocity for the rocket taking off from earth is u0 i.e

V(earth) = u0

V(earth) = √(2gR)

u0 = √(2gR) => For the earth

Now, let us calculate the escape velocity for the rocket taking off from planet x. This is illustrated below below:

g(planet x) = 2g (earth) => since the weight of the astronaut is twice as much on planet x as on earth

R(planet x) = 1/2 R(earth) => planet x has half the radius of earth

V(planet x) =?

Applying the formula V = √(2gR), the escape velocity on planet x is obtained as follow:

V(planet x) = √(2g(x) x R(x))

V(planet x) = √(2 x 2g x 1/2R)

V(planet x) = √(2 x g x R)

V(planet x) = √(2gR)

The expression obtained for the escape velocity on planet x i.e V(planet x) = √(2gR), is exactly the same as that obtained for the earth i.e V(earth) = √(2gR)

Therefore,

V(planet x) = V(earth) = √(2gR)

But from the question, V(earth) is u0

Therefore,

V(planet x) = V(earth) = √(2gR) = u0

So, the escape velocity on planet x is u0

An astronaut drops a rock from the top of a crater on the moon. When the rock is halfway down to the bottom of the crater, its s
Alexxx [7]

Answer: vf1/vf2= 1/ sqrt(2)

Explanation :on the moon no drag force so we have only the  force of gravity. aceleration is g(moon)= 1.62m/s2.the rest is basic kinematics

if the rock travels H to the bottom we can calculate velocity:

vo=0m/s (drops the rock)  , yo=0

vf*vf= vo*vo+2g(y-yo)

when the rock is halfway  y = H/2 so:

vf1*vf1=2*g*H/2 so vf1 = sqrt(gH)

when the rock reach the bottom y=H so:

vf2*vf2=2*g*H so vf2 = sqrt(2gH)

so vf1/vf2= 1/ sqrt(2)

good luck from colombia

pentagon [3]

I'm assuming you want the first law of thermodynamics.

The First Law of Thermodynamics states that heat is a form of energy and cannot be created or destroyed. It can, however, be transferred from one location to another and can be converted into other forms of energy.

If Anisa swims 85.4 yards in five minutes, how many meters will she swim in 70.0 seconds? ( use the metric system for this quest
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer : 18.22 meters

Explanation:

1 yard. = 0.9144 meters

85.4 yards = 78.08976 meters

1 minute = 60 seconds

5 minutes = 300 seconds

Speed of Anisa = distance / time

Speed of Anisa = 78.08976 meters / 300 seconds

Speed of Anisa = 0.26029 meters / second.

Distance travelled in 70 seconds = speed * 70

Distance travelled in 70 seconds = 0.26029 * 70 = 18.22 meters
