The thermosphere is a layer of Earth's atmosphere. The thermosphere is directly above the mesosphere and below the exosphere. It extends from about 90 km (56 miles) to between 500 and 1,000 km (311 to 621 miles) above our planet.

Starting from rest, a 2-m-long pendulum swings from an angleof
Andrews [41]

Answer:

D.) 1m/s

Explanation:

Assume the initial angle of the swing is 12.8 degree with respect to the vertical. We can calculate the vertical distance from this initial point to the lowest point by first calculate the vertical distance from this point the the pivot point:

L_1 = L*cos(12.8) = 2*0.975 = 1.95 m

where L is the pendulum length

The vertical distance from the lowest point to the pivot point L_2 is the pendulum length 2m

this means the vertical distance from this initial point to the lowest point is simply:

L_3 = L_2 - L_1 = 2 - 1.95 = 0.05 m

As the pendulum travel (vertically) from the initial point to the bottom point, its potential energy is converted to kinetic energy:

E_p = E_k

mgh = mv^2/2

where m is the mass of the pendulum, g  = 10 m/s2 is the constant gravitational acceleration, h = 0.05 is the vertical it travels, v is the pendulum velocity at the bottom, which we are trying to solve for.

The m on both sides of the equation cancel out

v^2 = 2gh = 2*10*0.05 = 1

v = \sqrt{1} = 1 m/s

so D is the correct answer

Onur drops a basketball from a height of 10m on Mars, where the acceleration due to gravity has magnitude of 3.7 m/s^2. We want
denpristay [2]

Answer:

2.32 s

Explanation:

Using the equation of motion,

s = ut+g't²/2............................ Equation 1

Where s = distance, u = initial velocity, g' = acceleration due to gravity of  the moon, t = time.

Note: Since Onur drops the basket ball from a height, u = 0 m/s

Then,

s = g't²/2

make t the subject of the equation,

t = √(2s/g')...................... Equation 2

Given: s = 10 m, g' = 3.7 m/s²

Substitute this value into equation 2

t = √(2×10/3.7)

t = √(20/3.7)

t = √(5.405)

t = 2.32 s.

if you run around a circle at 4.5 m/s and the circle has a radius of 7.7 m, what is your centripetal acceleration?
madreJ [45]

Answer:

Centripetal acceleration,

a_{c} =2.63\ m/s^{2} }

Explanation:

Centripetal acceleration:

Centripetal acceleration is the idea that any object moving in a circle, in something called circular motion, will have an acceleration vector pointed towards the center of that circle.

Centripetal means towards the center.

Examples of centripetal acceleration (acceleration pointing towards the center of rotation) include such situations as cars moving on the cicular part of the road.

An acceleration is a change in velocity.

Formula for Centripetal acceleration:

a_{c} =\frac{(velocity)^{2} }{radius}

Given here,

Velocity = 4.5 m/s

radius = 7.7 m

To Find :

a_{c} = ?

Solution:

We have,

a_{c} =\frac{(velocity)^{2} }{radius}

Substituting  given value in it we get

a_{c} =\frac{(4.5)^{2}}{7.7} \\\\a_{c} =\frac{20.25}{7.7}\\\\a_{c} =2.629\ m/s^{2} \\\\\therefore a_{c} =2.63\ m/s^{2

Centripetal acceleration,

a_{c} =2.63\ m/s^{2} }

What qualities did Galilea, Sir Isaac Newton, and Albert Einstein have?
MA_775_DIABLO [31]
The qualities that Galileo , Sir Isaac Newton, and Albert Einstein is that they all created models of nature. Galileo discovered Jupiter's four moons and declared that the earth revolves around the sun.Newton developed the three laws of motion, which formed the basic principles of modern physics.Albert Einstein discovered the general theory of relativity, but best known for his mass-energy equivalence formula E=mc².
