Answer:
Explanation:
Potential energy on the surface of the earth
= - GMm/ R
Potential at height h
= - GMm/ (R+h)
Potential difference
= GMm/ R - GMm/ (R+h)
= GMm ( 1/R - 1/ R+h )
= GMmh / R (R +h)
This will be the energy needed to launch an object from the surface of Earth to a height h above the surface.
Extra energy is needed to get the same object into orbit at height h
= Kinetic energy of the orbiting object at height h
= 1/2 x potential energy at height h
= 1/2 x GMm / ( R + h)
Work done is the distance a force acts over.
So, the work done here is 9.0N * 3.0m = 27 J
The force on the ship is more than a car
Answer:
the acceleration of the airplane is 5.06 x 10⁻³ m/s²
Explanation:
Given;
initial velocity of the airplane. u = 34.5 m/s
distance traveled by the airplane, s = 46,100 m
final velocity of the airplane, v = 40.7 m/s
The acceleration of the airplane is calculated from the following kinematic equation;
v² = u² + 2as
Therefore, the acceleration of the airplane is 5.06 x 10⁻³ m/s²
-- Speed = (distance) / (time to cover the distance) = 840/2.5 = 336 m/s
-- Frequency = (speed) / (wavelength) = 336/0.70 = 480 Hz.
