Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of the rock, u = 30 m/s

The acceleration due to gravity at the surface of the moon is 1.62 m/s².

We need to find the time when the rock is ascending at a height of 180 m.

The rock is projected from the surface of the moon. The equation of motion in this case is given by :

h=ut-\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2\\\\180=30t-\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1.62t^2

It is a quadratic equation, after solving whose solution is given by:

t = 7.53 s

or

t = 8 seconds

(e)If it is decending, v = -20 m/s

Now t' is the time of descending. So,

v=-u+gt\\\\t=\dfrac{v+u}{g}\\\\t=\dfrac{20+30}{1.62}\\\\t=30.86\ s

Let h' is the height of the rock at this time. So,

h'=ut-\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2\\\\h'=30\times 30.86-\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1.62\times 30.86^2\\\\h'=154.40\ m

or

h' = 155 m

  • The complexity of Earth is beyond the capabilities of computer simulations.
  • Numerous assumptions that must be made by computer models have a big impact on the forecasts they produce.
  • A computer model can incorporate historical climate data, but it is not possible to draw assumptions about future climates using this data in any way.
  • A computer model cannot distinguish between anthropogenic climate change and natural climatic fluctuations.
<h3>How precise are temperature forecasts made by climate models?</h3>

The forecasting of global surface temperatures is one of the most significant results of climate models.

Scientists evaluate the effectiveness of their models by contrasting observations of the Earth's climate with predictions of future temperatures and "hindcasts" of past temperatures. Then, by comparing specific climate models and the average of all models to actual warming, scientists may determine whether temperature projections are accurate.

Researchers can have more faith that models can effectively predict future changes in the same factors if they successfully simulate the climate response in the past.

How could you increase the gravitational potential energy between yourself and Earth?
Tamiku [17]
Gravitational Potential Energy, GPE = mgh

Where m is your mass in kg, g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s², and h is the height in m.

The only value that be controlled here is the height h.  The mass is constant, and acceleration due to gravity at that place is constant.

But h can be varied.

Hence to increase the gravitational potential energy between yourself and Earth is to increase the height h.

This can be done by climbing up a table, or climbing up a building through the stairs, or by using a lift.

A 10 g bullet is fired into, and embeds itself in, a 2 kg block attached to a spring with a force constant of 19.6 n/m and whose
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

x=0.478\ m is the compression in the spring

Explanation:

Given:

  • mass of the bullet, m=10\ g=0.01\ kg
  • mass of block, M=2\ kg
  • stiffness constant of the spring, k=19.6\ N.m^{-1}
  • initial velocity of the spring just before it hits the block, u=300\ m.s^{-1}

<u>Now since the bullet-mass gets embed into the block, we apply the conservation of momentum as:</u>

m.u=(M+m).v

0.01\times 300=(2+0.01)\times v

v=1.4925\ m.s^{-1}

Now this kinetic energy of the combined mass gets converted into potential energy of the spring.

\rm Kinetic\ energy=Spring\ potential\ energy

\frac{1}{2} (M+m).v^2=\frac{1}{2} k.x^2

\frac{1}{2} \times (2+0.01)\times 1.4925^2=\frac{1}{2} \times 19.6\times x^2

x=0.478\ m is the compression in the spring
