A catapult launches a test rocket vertically upward from a well, giving the rocket an initial speed of 80.6 m/s at ground level.

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

44.64 seconds

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2as+u^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 4.2\times 1180+80.6^2}\\\Rightarrow v=128.01\ m/s$

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 128.01=80.6+4.2t\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{128.01-80.6}{4.2}=11.29\ s$

<u>Time taken to reach 1180 m is 11.29 seconds</u>

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 0=128.01-9.8t\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{128.01}{9.8}=13.06\ s$

<u>Time the rocket will keep going up after the engines shut off is 13.06 seconds.</u>

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{0^2-128.01^2}{2\times -9.8}\\\Rightarrow s=836.05\ m$

The distance the rocket will keep going up after the engines shut off is 836.05 m

Total distance traveled by the rocket in the upward direction is 1180+836.05 = 2016.05 m

The rocket will fall from this height

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 2016.05=0t+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.8\times t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\frac{2016.05\times 2}{9.8}}\\\Rightarrow t=20.29\ s$

<u>Time taken by the rocket to fall from maximum height is 20.29 seconds</u>

Time the rocket will stay in the air is 11.29+13.06+20.29 = 44.64 seconds

At which temperature does the motion of atoms and molecules stop?

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

0 Kelvin

Explanation:

Atoms in absolute temperature get approximatelly motionless since 0 Kelvin is -273 degrees Celcius. The kinetic energy of atoms/particles in matter has the possible lowest value ( almost zero), so that there is nothing colder than 0 Kelvin.

A radio station's channel, such as 100.7 fm or 92.3 fm, is actually its frequency in megahertz (mhz), where 1mhz=106 hz and 1hz=

AURORKA [14]

The frequency of the radio station is
$f=88.7 fm= 88.7 MHz = 88.7 \cdot 10^6 Hz$

For radio waves (which are electromagnetic waves), the relationship between frequency f and wavelength $\lambda$ is
$\lambda= \frac{c}{f}$
where c is the speed of light. Substituting the frequency of the radio station, we find the wavelength:
$\lambda= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{88.7 \cdot 10^6 Hz}=3.38 m$
