Jupiter's moon Io has active volcanoes (in fact, it is the most volcanically active body in the solar system) that eject materia

l as high as 500 km (or even higher) above the surface. Io has a mass of 8.93×1022 kg and a radius of 1821 km . For this calculation, ignore any variation in gravity over the 500-km range of the debris.A. How high would this material go on earth if it were ejected with the same speed as on Io?

Answer:

91.64 km

91.64 km high material would go on earth if it were ejected with the same speed as on Io.

Explanation:

According to Newton Law of gravitation:

g=\frac{Gm}{r^2}

Where:

G is gravitational constant=6.67*10^{-11} m^3/kg.s^2

For Moon lo g is:

g_M=\frac{6.67*10^{-11}*8.93*10^{22}}{(1821*10^3)^2m^2} \\g_M=1.7962 m/s^2

According to law of conservation of energy

Initial Energy=Final Energy

K.E_i+mgh_i=K.E_f+mgh_f

\frac{1}{2}m(v_0)^2+mgh_o= \frac{1}{2}m(v_f)^2+mgh_f\\At\ maximum\ height\ v_f=0\\\frac{1}{2}m(v_0)^2+0=mgh_f\\v_0=\sqrt{2gh_f}

For Jupiter's moon Io:

Velocity is given by:

v_0_M=\sqrt{2g_Mh_f_M}

For Earth Velocity is given by:

v_0_E=\sqrt{2g_Eh_f_E}

Now:

v_o_M=v_o_E

\sqrt{2g_Mh_f_M}=\sqrt{2g_Eh_f_E}\\h_f_E=\frac{g_Mh_f_M}{g_E}

g_E=9.8 m/s^2

g_m=1.7962 m/s^2, As\ Calculated\ above

h_f_E=\frac{1.7962*500*10^3m}{9.8} \\h_f_E=91642.85 m\\h_f_E=91.64Km

91.64 km high material would go on earth if it were ejected with the same speed as on Io.

to move a resting box of 100 Newton on the ground with kinetic friction coeficient of 0,250 is applied a force of 60 N horizonta
krok68 [10]
Work is calculated by multiplying force by the distance that the object had moved. The applied force is 60 N, moving the object by 10 m. Thus, the work does is 600 J. For the friction force which is equal to,
                          100N x 0.250 = 25.0 N
the work done is,
                        W = (60 N - 25 N) x 10 m = 350 J
The kinetic energy of the box can be equated to this force. Thus, the answer is also 350 J.

The mass of the uniform cantilever is 1100 kg. Determine the force on the beam at A. Determine the force on the beam at B. Use C
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

Force A=-−2,697.75 N

Force B=13, 488.75 N

Explanation:

Taking moments at point A, the sum of clockwise and anticlockwise moments equal to zero.

25 mg-20Fb=0

25*1100g=20Fb

Fb=25*1100g/20=1375g

Taking g as 9.81 then Fb=1375*9.81=13,488.75 N

The sum of upward and downward forces are same hence Fa=1100g-1375g=-275g

-275*9.81=−2,697.75. Therefore, force A pulls downwards

Note that the centre of gravity is taken to be half the whole length hence half of 50 is 25 m because center of gravity is always at the middle

Why are noise considerations important in optical fiber communications? 3. Describe the principle of "population inversion".
pochemuha

Answer and Explanation:

the electronic devices always have some noises present in the signal

there are some important considerations in optical fiber communications these are.

  • the noise which is contributed by transmitter are electronic random noise, low frequency noise
  • noise which is contributed by laser are relative intensity noise, mode partition noise, conversion of phase noise to amplitude noise.
  • noise contributed by photo detector are quantum shot noise, shot noise from dark current, avalanche multiplication noise.

PRINCIPLE OF POPULATION INVERSION :

The principle of population inversion is defined as for production of high percentage of simulated emission for a laser beam the number of atoms in higher state should be greater than lower energy state

Two people travel from Columbus to Cleveland, one by car at an average velocity of 90km/h, and one by plane at an average veloci
Flura [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

Yes , their displacement may be equal .

Suppose the displacement is AB where A is starting point and B is end point .

The car is covering the distance AB by going from A to B on straight line . On the other hand plane goes from A to C , then from C to D and then from D to B . In this way plane reaches B from A on a different path which is longer than path of the car . In the second case also displacement of plane is AB . In the second case distance covered is longer but displacement is same that is AB .
