During the first 6 years of its operation, the Hubble Space Telescope circled the Earth 37,000 times, for a total of 1,280,000,0

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

v = 384km/min

Explanation:

In order to calculate the speed of the Hubble space telescope, you first calculate the distance that Hubble travels for one orbit.

You know that 37000 times the orbit of Hubble are 1,280,000,000 km. Then, for one orbit you have:

$d=\frac{1,280,000,000km}{37,000}=34,594.59km$

You know that one orbit is completed by Hubble on 90 min. You use the following formula to calculate the speed:

$v=\frac{d}{t}=\frac{34,594.59km}{90min}=384.38\frac{km}{min}\approx384\frac{km}{min}$

hence, the speed of the Hubble is approximately 384km/min

If a ball is thrown straight up into the air with an initial velocity of 65 ft/s, its height in feet after t seconds is given by

fgiga [73]

Answer:

a) $v_{1}=\frac{(62.5-66)ft}{(2.5-2)s}=-7ft/s$

$v_{2}=\frac{(65.94-66)ft}{(2.1-2)s}=-0.6ft/s$

$v_{3}=\frac{(66.0084-66)ft}{(2.01-2)s}=0.84ft/s$

$v_{4}=\frac{(66.001-66)ft}{(2.001-2)s}=1ft/s$

b) $v=65-32(2)=1ft/s$

Explanation:

From the exercise we got the ball's equation of position:

$y=65t-16t^{2}$

a) To find the average velocity at the given time we need to use the following formula:

$v=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{t_{2}-t_{1} }$

Being said that, we need to find the ball's position at t=2, t=2.5, t=2.1, t=2.01, t=2.001

$y_{t=2}=65(2)-16(2)^{2} =66ft$

$y_{t=2.5}=65(2.5)-16(2.5)^{2} =62.5ft$

$v_{1}=\frac{(62.5-66)ft}{(2.5-2)s}=-7ft/s$

$y_{t=2.1}=65(2.1)-16(2.1)^{2} =65.94ft$

$v_{2}=\frac{(65.94-66)ft}{(2.1-2)s}=-0.6ft/s$

$y_{t=2.01}=65(2.01)-16(2.01)^{2} =66.0084ft$

$v_{3}=\frac{(66.0084-66)ft}{(2.01-2)s}=0.84ft/s$

$y_{t=2.001}=65(2.001)-16(2.001)^{2} =66.001ft$

$v_{4}=\frac{(66.001-66)ft}{(2.001-2)s}=1ft/s$

b) To find the instantaneous velocity we need to derivate the equation

$v=\frac{df}{dt}=65-32t$

$v=65-32(2)=1ft/s$

A container in the shape of a cube 10.0 cm on each edge contains air (with equivalent molar mass 28.9 g/mol) at atmospheric pres

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

a) m = 1.174 grams

b) F_g = 0.01151 N

c) F_c = 1013 N

Explanation:

Given:

- The length of a cube L = 10.0 cm

- The molar mass of air M = 28.9 g/mol

- Pressure of air P = 101.3 KPa

- Temperature of air T = 300 K

- Universal Gas constant R = 8.314 J/kgK

Find:

(a) the mass of the gas

(b) the gravitational force exerted on it

(d) Why does such a small sample exert such a great force? (6%)

Solution:

- Compute the volume of the cube:

V = L^3 = 0.1^3 = 0.001 m^3

- Use Ideal gas law equation and compute number of moles of air n:

P*V = n*R*T

n = P*V / R*T

n = 101.3*10^3 * 0.001 / 8.314*300

n = 0.04061 moles

- Compute the mass of the gas:

m = n*M

m = 0.04061*28.9

m = 1.174 grams

- The gravitational force exerted on the mass of gas is due to its weight:

F_g = m*g

F_g = 1.174*9.81*10^-3

F_g = 0.01151 N

- The force exerted on each face of cube is due its surface area:

F_c = P*A

F_c = (101.3*10^3)*(0.1)^2

F_c = 1013 N

- The molecules of a gas have high kinetic energy; hence, high momentum. When they collide with the walls they transfer momentum per unit time as force. Higher the velocity of the particles higher the momentum higher the force exerted.
