The acceleration due to gravity at the north pole of Neptune is approximately 11.2 m/s2. Neptune has mass 1.02×1026 kg and radiu

s 2.46×104 km and rotates once around its axis in a time of about 16 h.
a)What is the gravitational force on a 4.60-kg object at the north pole of Neptune? Express your answer with the appropriate units.
b)What is the apparent weight of this same object at Neptune's equator? (Note that Neptune's "surface" is gaseous, not solid, so it is impossible to stand on it.) Express your answer with the appropriate units.

200 kW of solar radiation is shining on a 300 m^2 parking lot. What is the insulation on the parking lot?
ale4655 [162]

That's "<em><u>insolation</u></em>" ... not "insulation".

'Insolation' is simply the intensity of solar radiation over some area.

If 200 kW of radiation is shining on 300 m² of area, then the insolation is

           (200 kW) / (300 m²) = <em>(666 and 2/3) watt/m²</em> .

Note that this is the intensity of the <em><u>incident</u></em> radiation.  It doesn't say anything
about how much soaks in or how much bounces off.

Wait ! 
I just looked back at the choices, and realized that I didn't answer the question
at all.  I have no idea what  "1 sun"  means.  Forgive me.  I have stolen your
points, and I am filled with remorse.

Wait again !
I found it, through literally several seconds of online research.

           1 sun = 1 kW/m².

So 2/3 of a kW per m²  =  2/3 of 1 sun

That's between 0.5 sun and 1.0 sun.

I feel better now, and plus, I learned something.

A stone is thrown horizontally with an initial speed of 10 m/s from the edge of a cliff. A stopwatch measures the stone's trajec
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

The height of the cliff is 90.60 meters.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Initial horizontal speed of the stone, u = 10 m/s

Initial vertical speed of the stone, u' = 0 (as there is no motion in vertical direction)

The time taken by the stone from the top of the cliff to the bottom to be 4.3 s, t = 4.3 s

Let h is the height of the cliff. Using the second equation of motion in vertical direction to find it. It is given by :

h=u't+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

h=\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

h=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8\times (4.3)^2

h = 90.60 meters

So, the height of the cliff is 90.60 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

A 2 m tall, 0.5 m inside diameter tank is filled with water. A 10 cm hole is opened 0.75 m from the bottom of the tank. What is
valina [46]

Answer:

4.75 m/s

Explanation:

The computation of the velocity of the existing water is shown below:

Data provided in the question

Tall = 2 m

Inside diameter tank = 2m

Hole opened = 10 cm

Bottom of the tank = 0.75 m

Based on the above information, first we have to determine the height which is

= 2 - 0.75 - 0.10

= 2 - 0.85

= 1.15 m

We assume the following things

1. Compressible flow

2. Stream line followed

Now applied the Bernoulli equation to section 1 and 2

So we get

\frac{P_1}{p_g} + \frac{v_1^2}{2g} + z_1 = \frac{P_2}{p_g} + \frac{v_2^2}{2g} + z_2

where,

P_1 = P_2 = hydrostatic

z_1 = 0

z_2 = h

Now

\frac{v_1^2}{2g} + 0 = \frac{v_2^2}{2g} + h\\\\V_2 < < V_1 or V_2 = 0\\\\Therefore\  \frac{v_1^2}{2g} = h\\\\v_1^2 = 2gh\\\\ v_1 = \sqrt{2gh} \\\\v_1 = \sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 1.15}

= 4.7476 m/sec

= 4.75 m/s
