calculate the distance a plane flies on a 7.95 hour flight from Chicago to London. Assume a constant speed of 800.0 km/h

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

6360 km

Explanation:

Use the kinematics equation $x=v_ot+\frac{1}{2}at^2$ . We are given t = 7.95 hours and a = 0 m/s^2 (constant speed means there is no acceleration). Solve for x.

$x=(800)(7.95)+\frac{1}{2}(0)(7.95^2)\\x=6360 \ km$

A jet accelerates from rest down a runway at 1.75m/s² for a distance of 1500 m before takeoff.

babunello [35]

A. Using the third equation of motion:
v2 = u2 + 2as
from the question;
the jet was initially at rest
hence u = 0
a = 1.75m/s2
s = 1500m
v2 = 02 + 2(1.75)(1500)
v2 = 5250
v = √5250
v = 72.46m/s
hence it moves with a velocity of 72.46m/s.
b. s = ut + 1/2at2
1500 = 0(t) + 1/2(1.75)t2
1500 × 2 = 2× 1/2(1.75)t2
3000 = 1.75t2
1714.29 = t2
41.4 = t
hence the time taken for the plane to down the runway is 41.4s.

Two neutron stars are separated by a distance of 1.0 x 1012 m. They each have a mass of 1.0 x 1028 kg and a radius of 1.0 x 103

son4ous [18]

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Gravitational Potential Energy.

Gravitational potential energy can be defined as

$PE = -\frac{GMm}{R}$

As M=m, then

$PE = -\frac{Gm^2}{R}$

Where,

m = Mass

G =Gravitational Universal Constant

R = Distance /Radius

PART A) As half its initial value is u'=2u, then

$U = -\frac{2Gm^2}{R}$

$dU = -\frac{2Gm^2}{R}$

$dKE = -dU$

Therefore replacing we have that,

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 =\frac{Gm^2}{2R}$

Re-arrange to find v,

$v= \sqrt{\frac{Gm}{R}}$

$v = \sqrt{\frac{6.67*10^{-11}*1*10^{28}}{1*10^{12}}}$

$v = 816.7m/s$

Therefore the velocity when the separation has decreased to one-half its initial value is 816m/s

PART B) With a final separation distance of 2r, we have that

$2r = 2*10^3m$

Therefore

$dU = Gm^2(\frac{1}{R}-\frac{1}{2r})$

$v = \sqrt{Gm(\frac{1}{2r}-\frac{1}{R})}$

$v = \sqrt{6.67*10^{-11}*10^{28}(\frac{1}{2*10^3}-\frac{1}{10^{12}})}$

$v = 1.83*10^7m/s$

Therefore the velocity when they are about to collide is $1.83*10^7m/s$

A 160.-kilogram space vehicle is traveling along a

mario62 [17]

If the object is moving in a straight line at a constant speed, then that's
the definition of zero acceleration. It can only happen when the sum of
all forces (the 'net' force) on the object is zero.

And it doesn't matter what the object's mass is. That argument is true
for specks of dust, battleships, rocks, stars, rock-stars, planets, and
everything in between.

In the simulation, there are three balls on the floor. Drag each of them up off the floor, and then let go. See what happens to

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

I hope this helps and I'm not to late

A way the balls behave the same way is by bouncing about 1 time after throwing the balls up. A way the balls act differently is the blue ball is bouncier than all the balls, the red ball bounces about 2 times before stopping, and the green ball doesn’t really bounce except for one time.

you also can use paraphrase to help you reword bye bye!!
