The closest approach distance between Mars and Earth is about 56 million km. Assume you can travel in a spaceship at 58,000 km/h

, which is the speed achieved by the New Horizons space probe that went to Pluto and is the fastest speed so far of any space vehicle launched from Earth. How long would it take to get to Mars at the time of closest approach?

Answer:

40.22 days

Explanation:

Given data:

Closest approach distance between Mars and Earth = 56 million km = 56 × 10⁶ km

Speed of the spaceship = 58000 km/h

Now, the time (t) is calculated as:

time = Distance / speed

on substituting the values, we get

t = 56 × 10⁶ km / (58000 km/h)

or

t = 965.517 hours

or

t = 965.517 / 24 days = 40.22 days

1. Define weight
andrezito [222]

1. Weight is the gravitational pull with which the earth attracts the body towards the center of the earth. The S.I unit is Newton (N)

2. The weight of an object is related to its mass with the below equation.

W = mg

Where W = weight, m = mass and g = acceleration due to gravity

3. The mass m = 50 kg and g = 9.8 m/s^{2}

Substitute the parameters in the equation above.

W = 50 x 9.8

W = 490 N

4. An object is accelerating when it speeds up. If the object slows down, it means it is decelerating. The correct answer is option A

5. Newton's second law of motion is:

F = ma

Where F = force applied, m = mass and a = acceleration

Therefore, Newton's second law of motion relates an object's acceleration to its net force acting on it. The correct answer is option C

6. According to Newton's second law of motion which relates an object's acceleration to its mass, doubling the net force acting on an object a doubles its acceleration. Because mass is always constant.

7. Since the weight of an object is related to its mass with the equation.

W = mg,  If the mass of an object doubles, its weight will also doubles. Option A is the correct answer.

8. If you know the mass of an object, you can calculate its weight with the formula F = mX when X = 9.8m/s^{2}

9. Force is expressed in unit as Newton (N)

10. The parameters given are :

mass m = 20kg

Force F = 40N

To calculate acceleration, use the formula F = ma

Substitute all the parameters into the equation.

40 = 20a

a = 40/20

a = 2m/s^{2}

The correct option is D
