Answer:

10604 square meters

Explanation:

0.23 cm = 0.0023m

Assume the carrier has a shape of a rectangular box. When the carrier sinks 0.0023m deeper into water, the extra volume submerged into water is the same as the extra water volume being replaced. This extra volume would add an additional buoyant force to counter balance the extra weight created by the 25000 kg fighter.

With g being constant, the mass of the extra water displaced is the same as the mass of the fighter airplane $m_f$ . And mass of the water displaced is its volume V times its density $\rho$

$V\rho = m_f$

$1025V = 25000$

$V = 25000/1025 = 24.39 m^3$

We assume the carrier has a shape of a rectangular box, so this extra displaced volume is the extra depth d = 0.0023 m times cross-section area A

$V = dA$

$24.39 = 0.0023A$

$A = 24.39 / 0.0023 = 10604 m^2$

A 20 kg mass is moving at 10 m/s and collides with a stationary 5 kg mass, transferring all its momentum in the collision, what

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

v = 40 [m/s].

Explanation:

Linear momentum is defined as the product of mass by Velocity. In this way, by means of the following equation, we can calculate the momentum.

$P=m*v\\$

where:

m = mass [kg]

v = velocity [m/s]

$P =20*10\\P =200 [kg*m/s]$

Since all momentum is transferred, we can say that this momentum is equal for the mass of 5 [kg]. In this way, we can determine the speed after the impact.

$v = P/m\\v = 200/5\\v = 40 [m/s]$

A meteoroid is in a circular orbit 600 km above the surface of a distant planet. The planet has the same mass as Earth but has a

AVprozaik [17]

<h2>Answer:</h2><h2>The acceleration of the meteoroid due to the gravitational force exerted by the planet = 12.12 m/ $s^{2}$ </h2>

Explanation:

A meteoroid is in a circular orbit 600 km above the surface of a distant planet.

Mass of the planet = mass of earth = 5.972 x $10^{24}$ Kg

Radius of the earth = 90% of earth radius = 90% 6370 = 5733 km

The acceleration of the meteoroid due to the gravitational force exerted by the planet = ?

By formula, g = $\frac{GM}{r^{2} }$

where g is the acceleration due to the gravity

G is the universal gravitational constant = 6.67 x $10^{-11}$ $m^{3} kg^{-1} s^{-2}$

M is the mass of the planet

r is the radius of the planet

Substituting the values, we get

g = $\frac{(6.67 * 10^{-11}) (5.972 * 10^{24}) }{5733^{2} }$

g = 12.12 m/ $s^{2}$

The acceleration of the meteoroid due to the gravitational force exerted by the planet = 12.12 m/ $s^{2}$

What is air pressure?

dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

A. Earth's gravity pulling down on air molecules

Explanation:

Air pressure refers to the weight of the air per unit surface area. It is the amount of gravitational force which is pulling down the molecules of air.

The common unit of air pressure is: Pascal, atm

1 atm = 101325 Pa

As the column of the air above increases, the air pressure increase. This is because with the increase in amount of air, the weight increase of the air increases. This is the reason a diver feels immense pressure in the sea and cooking takes a lot of time on hilly areas because of low air pressure.
