The moon is 384,000 km away from the Earth. It revolves around the earth in 27.3 days. (pi = 3.14)

Speed is rv = r 2pi/T

v = 384,000 2pi/27.3 * 86400

   = 27.9 km/s

Good luck :)

Answer:

It is 7850 m/s

Explanation:

The orbital velocity is given by

v = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}

where, G be the universal gravitational constant, M be the mass of earth and r be the distance of moon from earth.

G = 6.67\times 10^{-11} Nm^{2}/kg^{2}, M = 5.98\times 10^{24}kg, r = 6.47\times 10^{6}m

v = \sqrt{\frac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 5.98\times 10^{24}}{6.47\times 10^{6}}}

v = 7850 m/s

A bungee jumper has a mass of 60kg and uses a 25m long bungee cord (unstretched length) with an elastic coefficient of 800N/m. a
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

a ) 2.68 m / s

b )  1.47 m

Explanation:

The jumper will go down with acceleration as long as net force on it becomes zero . Net force of (mg - kx ) will act on it  where kx is the restoring force acting in upward direction.

At the time of equilibrium

mg - kx = 0

x = mg / k

= (60 x 9.8 ) / 800

= 0.735 m

At this moment , let its velocity be equal to V

Applying conservation of energy

kinetic energy of jumper + elastic energy of cord = loss of potential energy of the jumper

1/2 m V² + 1/2 k x² = mg x

.5 x 60 x V² + .5 x 800 x .735 x .735 = 60 x 9.8 x .735

30 V² + 216.09 = 432.18

V = 2.68 m / s

b ) At lowest point , kinetic energy is zero and loss of potential energy will be equal to stored elastic energy.

1/2 k x² = mgx

x = 2 m g / k

= (2 x 60 x 9.8) / 800

= 1.47 m

Elena L [17]

Answer:

No. He was not the first person who built a microscope. But he made simple (one lens), but the microscopes that he did built were the best ones for that time.
