All electromagnetic waves travel in vacuum (space) at the speed of light (3 * 10^8 m/s). Radio waves is just a member of the electromagnetic spectrum. All electromagnetic waves follow the wave equation: speed = frequency * wavelength. With all electromagnetic waves, the speed in space is the same.

The atmospheric pressure at the surface of titan is.
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

about 1.5 bars

Titan's atmosphere is similar to Earth's both in the predominance of nitrogen gas and in surface pressure, which is about 1.5 bars, or 50 percent higher than sea-level pressure on Earth.

A rock is thrown upward from the top of a 30 m building with a velocity of 5 m/s. Determine its velocity (a) When it falls back
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

a) 5 m/s downwards

b) 17.86 m/s

c) 24.82 m/s

d) 0.228

Explanation:

We can set the frame of reference with the origin on the top of the building and the X axis pointing down.

The rock will be subject to the acceleration of gravity. We can use the equation for position under constant acceleration and speed under constant acceleration:

X(t) = X0 + V0 * t + 1/2 * a * t^2

V(t) = V0 + a * t

In this case

X0 = 0

V0 = -5 m/s

a = 9.81 m/s^2

To know the speed it will have when it falls back past the original point we need to know when it will do it. When it does X will be 0.

0 = -5 * t + 1/2 * 9.81 * t^2

0 = t * (-5 + 4.9 * t)

One of the solutions is t = 0, but this is when the rock was thrown.

0 = -5 + 4.69 * t

4.9 * t = 5

t = 5 / 4.9

t = 1.02 s

Replacing this in the speed equation:

V(1.02) = -5 + 9.81 * 1.02 = 5 m/s (this is speed downwards because the X axis points down)

When the rock is at 15 m above the street it is 15 m under the top of the building.

15 = -5 * t + 1/2 * 9.81 * t^2

4.9 * t^s -5 * t - 15 = 0

Solving electronically:

t = 2.33 s

At that time the speed will be:

V(2.33) = -5 + 9.81 * 2.33 = 17.86 m/s

When the rock is about to reach the ground it is at 30 m under the top of the building:

30 = -5 * t + 1/2 * 9.81 * t^2

4.9 * t^s -5 * t - 30 = 0

Solving electronically:

t = 3.04 s

At this time it has a speed of:

V(3.04) = -5 + 9.81 * 3.04 = 24.82 m/s

---------------------

Power is work done per unit of time.

The work in this case is:

L = Ff * d

With Ff being the friction force, this is related to weight

Ff = μ * m * g

μ: is the coefficient of friction

L = μ * m * g * d

P = L/Δt

P = (μ * m * g * d)/Δt

Rearranging:

μ = (P * Δt) / (m * g * d)

1 horsepower is 746 W

20 minutes is 1200 s

μ = (746 * 1200) / (100 * 9.81 * 4000) = 0.228
