1 day  =  86,400 seconds

1 mile  =  1,609.344 meters

Speed  =  (3 x 10⁸ m/s) x (86,400 s/da) x (1 mi/1,609.344 m)

Speed  =  (3 x 10⁸ x 86,400 x 1 / 1,609.344) (meter-sec-mile/sec-day-meter)

<em>Speed  =  1.61 x 10¹⁰ mile/day</em>

Speed  =  16.1 gigamiles per day

A kicked soccer ball has an initial velocity of 25 meters per second at an angle of 40 degrees, above the horizontal.
Zinaida [17]

(1) The vertical magnitude of the ball's initial velocity is 16.075 m/s,

(2) The maximum height of the ball is 13.18 m

(1) To Calculate the vertical component of the ball's initial velocity, we use the formula below.

Formula:

  • Vy = Vsin∅........................ Equation 1

Where:

  • Vy = vertical component of the ball's initial velocity
  • V = Initial velocity of the ball
  • ∅  = angle to the horizontal.

From the question,

Given:

  • V = 25 m/s
  • ∅ = 40°

Substitute these values into equation 1

  • Vy = 25(sin40°)
  • Vy = 25×0.643
  • Vy = 16.075 m/s.

(2) To calculate the maximum height reached by the ball, we use the formula below.

Formula:

  • H = (Vy)²/2g............... Equation 2

Where:

  • g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute the value above into equation 2

  • H = (16.075)²/(2×9.8)
  • H = 13.18 m

Hence, (1) The vertical magnitude of the ball's initial velocity is 16.075 m/s, (b) The maximum height of the ball is 13.18 m.

A 200 g, 20 cm diameter plastic disk is spun on an axle through its center by an electric motor. What torque must the motor supp
Rama09 [41]

Answer: The torque required is 0.0471 N m.

Explanation:

Mass of the disc = 200 g = 0.2 kg (1 kg =1000 g)

Radius of the disc =\frac{Diameter}{2}= 10 cm = 0.1 m(1 m = 100 cm)

Angular acceleration = \alpha

\alpha =\frac{2\pi\times 1800}{60 \times 4 sec}=15\pi rad/s^2

Moment of inertia = \frac{1}{2}\times mass\times (radius)^2=\frac{1}{2}\times0.2 kg\times (0.1 m)^2=0.001 kg m^2

Torque=\alpha \times I=0.001 kg m^2\times 15\times 3.14 rad/s^2r=0.0471 N m

The torque required is 0.0471 N m.

An aircraft is moving horizontally with a speed of 50m/s, at the height of 2km, an object is dropped from the aircraft. What is
posledela

Explanation:

use the diagram^

horizontal velocity of the object nvr changes, it'll stay 50m/s till it hits the ground

initial vertical velocity = 0

to find the final vertical velocity, use the formula:

v {}^{2}  = u {}^{2}  + 2as

where u = 0m/s, a = 9.8m/s², and s = 2000m

solve for v.

for time taken to reach ground, use the formula:

v = u + at

where v = the value for v u calculated above, u = 0 m/s, a = 9.8m/s² and solve for t.
