Answer:  total mechanical energy of -4.6 x 10^10 j. 

Explanation: the planet express is in a circular orbit around the earth and has a total mechanical energy of -4.6 x 10^10 j.

The total mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and the kinetic energy.

For the rocket to experience the escape from earth, the total work done will be equal to maximum kinetic energy.

According to conservative of energy, maximum kinetic energy is equal to the total mechanical energy.

The work must be provided by the planet expresss rockets in order to completley escape earth will be equal to  total mechanical energy of -4.6 x 10^10 j.

A policeman investigating an accident measures the skid marks left by a car on the horizontal road. He determines that the dista
sleet_krkn [62]
<h2>The velocity of car was m m/s </h2>

Explanation:

When the car skids , its centripetal force is provided by frictional force .

Here centripetal force F = \frac{mv^2}{r}

here v is the velocity of car and r is the radius of the curve .

The frictional force f = μ R

here μ is the coefficient of kinetic friction and R is normal reaction

Thus f =  m g

On horizontal road R = mg

Thus F = f  at the time of skid .

Thus v = \sqrt{\mu rg}

= \sqrt{0.29x23.74x10} = 9 m/s

Three out of four crashes happen at a speed of __________ miles per hour or less.
Nitella [24]
<span>The answer is 45 miles per hour or even less. Most crashes occur at a speed of 45 miles per hour or even less, and most of these accidents occur close to our homes. These crashes may also be caused by different factors, such as being drunk or sudden occurrences that are not controllable, which is why it is best to precede with caution when driving at crowded areas.</span>
