A plane flies 1800 miles in 9 hours, with a tailwind all the way. the return trip on the same route, now with a headwind, tak

Fittoniya [83]

Initially its moving with tail wind so here the speed of wind will support the motion of the plane

so we can say

$V_{plane} + v_{wind} = \frac{distance}{time}$

$V_{plane} + v_{wind} = \frac{1800}{9}$

$V_{plane} + v_{wind} = 200 mph$

now when its moving with head wind we can say that wind is opposite to the motion of the plane

$V_{plane} - v_{wind} = \frac{distance}{time}$

$V_{plane} - v_{wind} = \frac{1800}{12}$

$V_{plane} - v_{wind} = 150mph$

now by using above two equations we can find speed of palne as well as speed of wind

$V_{plane} = 175 mph$

$v_{wind} = 25 mph$

Calculate the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of Earth due to the Moon.

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

$g'_h=1.096\times 10^{-5}\ m.s^{-2}$

Explanation:

We know that the gravity on the surface of the moon is,

$g'=\frac{g}{6}$

$g'=1.63\ m.s^{-2}$

<u>Gravity at a height h above the surface of the moon will be given as:</u>

$g'_h=\frac{G.m}{(r+h)^2}$ ..........................(1)

where:

G = universal gravitational constant

m = mass of the moon

r = radius of moon

We have:

$G=6.67\times 10^{-11}\ m^3.s^{-2}.kg^{-1}$

$m=7.35\times 10^{22}\ kg$

$r=1.74\times 10^6\ m$

$h=384.4\times 10^6\ m$ is the distance between the surface of the earth and the moon.

Now put the respective values in eq. (1)

$g'_h=\frac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 7.35\times 10^{22}}{(1.74\times 10^6+384.4\times 10^6)^2}$

$g'_h=1.096\times 10^{-5}\ m.s^{-2}$ is the gravity on the moon the earth-surface.

What happened as the mass of the sun increased during formation of the solor system

sveta [45]

Answer:

Formation. Our solar system formed about 4.5 billion years ago from a dense cloud of interstellar gas and dust. ... When this dust cloud collapsed, it formed a solar nebula—a spinning, swirling disk of material. At the center, gravity pulled more and more material in.
