A careful photographic survey of Jupiter's moon Io by the spacecraft Voyager 1 showed active volcanoes spewing liquid sulfur to

heights of 70 km above the surface of this moon. If the value of g on Io is 2.0 m/s2 , estimate the speed with which the liquid sulfur left the volcano.

The concept used to solve this problem is that given in the kinematic equations of motion. From theory we know that the change in velocities of a body is equivalent to twice the distance traveled by acceleration, in other words:

v_f^2-v_i^2 = 2ax

Where,

v_{f,i} = Final and initial velocity

a = Acceleration

x = Displacement

For the given case, the displacement is equivalent to the height (x = h) and the acceleration is the same gravitational acceleration (a = g). In turn we do not have initial speed therefore

v_f^2 = 2hg

v_f = \sqrt{2hg}

Our values are given as

h = 70km = 70*10^3m

g = 2m/s^2

Replacing we have that,

v_f = \sqrt{2hg}

v_f = \sqrt{2(70*10^3)(2)}

v_f = 529.15m/s

Therefore the speed with which the liquid sulfur left the volcano is 529.15m/s

All of the following could be considered reconstruction except
mylen [45]
The first three choices: a, b and c can be considered reconstruction except the last one which is letter d. I'm not really certain what reconstruction is, but judging from the patterns of the first three choices, reconstruction could mean that an inference is made after a part of an event has proved that event to be true.

A 10-m-long glider with a mass of 680 kg (including the passengers) is gliding horizontally through the air at 34 m/s when a 60
german

Answer:

34 m/s

Explanation:

m = Mass of glider with person = 680 kg

v = Velocity of glider with person = 34 m/s

m_1 = Mass of glider without person = 680-60 kg

v_1 = Gliders speed just after the skydiver lets go

m_2 = Mass of person = 60 kg

v_2 = Velcotiy of person = 34 m/s

As the linear momentum of the system is conserved

m_1v_1+m_2v_2=mv\\\Rightarrow v_1=\dfrac{mv-m_2v_2}{m_1}\\\Rightarrow v_1=\dfrac{680\times 34-60\times 34}{680-60}\\\Rightarrow v_1=34\ m/s

The gliders speed just after the skydiver lets go is 34 m/s
