Answer:

(dr/dt) = √(v₀² + k²/r - k²/R)

Explanation:

v² = v₀² + k²[(1/r) - (1/R)]

v = velocity of Body launched from the surface of the earth

v = initial velocity of body

k = a constant

r = distance from the centre of the earth

R = radius of the earth

v² = v₀² + k²/r - k²/R

v = √(v₀² + k²/r - k²/R)

But v = dr/dt

(dr/dt) = √(v₀² + k²/r - k²/R)

(dr/√(v₀² + k²/r - k²/R)) = dt

To go one step beyond and integrate the differential equation

∫ (dr/√(v₀² + k²/r - k²/R)) = ∫ dt

Integrating the left hand side from 0 to r and the right hand side from 0 to t

Note, v₀, k and R are all constants

(- 4r²/k²)[√(v₀² + k²/r - k²/R)] = t

√(v₀² + k²/r - k²/R) = (- k² t/4r²)

(v₀² + k²/r - k²/R) = (- k² t/4r²)²

(v₀² + k²/r - k²/R) = (k⁴t²/16r⁴)

(k⁴t²/16r⁴) + (k²/r) = [v₀² - (k²/R)]

k² [(k²t²/16r⁴) + (1/r)] = [v₀² - (k²/R)]

[(k²t²/16r⁴) + (1/r)] = [(v₀²/k²) - (1/R)]

For a star with a parallax angle of 1/2 of an at arcsecond, what will be its distance in parsec?
avanturin [10]

(1 parsec) is the distance at which an object has a parallax of 1 arcsecond. The distance is about 3.26 light years.

Another way to understand it is:  The distance from which the Earth's orbit appears 1 arcsecond across.

For a parallax angle of 1/2 arcsecond, the distance is <em>2 parsecs </em>(about 6.52 light years).

1 arcsecond is 1/3600 of a degree, 0.00028 degree.

An astronaut is walking in space. Which of these would have the greatest speed as observed by the astronaut?
Aleks04 [339]
The answer is C) an electromagnetic wave

An electromagnetic wave, which includes electromagnetic radiation such as visible light, moves the fastest of all of the options listed by a significant margin, especially through space. In fact, light travelling through space is technically the theoretical limit of how fast something can travel.
