Answer:

Student A is correct

Explanation:

This is because by student A's recording, we get the average speed = total distance/total time = 6 m/2 s = 3 m/s. Student B recorded an average speed of 1.5 m/s². This cannot be correct because it is in the unit of acceleration.

One of your summer lunar space camp activities is to launch a 1090 kg rocket from the surface of the Moon. You are a serious spa
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

ΔP.E = 6.48 x 10⁸ J

Explanation:

First we need to calculate the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of moon:

g = GM/R²

where,

g = acceleration due to gravity on the surface of moon = ?

G = Universal Gravitational Constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²

M = Mass of moon = 7.36 x 10²² kg

R = Radius of Moon = 1740 km = 1.74 x 10⁶ m

Therefore,

g = (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²)(7.36 x 10²² kg)/(1.74 x 10⁶ m)²

g = 2.82 m/s²

now the change in gravitational potential energy of rocket is calculated by:

ΔP.E = mgΔh

where,

ΔP.E = Change in Gravitational Potential Energy = ?

m = mass of rocket = 1090 kg

Δh = altitude = 211 km = 2.11 x 10⁵ m

Therefore,

ΔP.E = (1090 kg)(2.82 m/s²)(2.11 x 10⁵ m)

<u>ΔP.E = 6.48 x 10⁸ J</u>

It is determined that a certain light wave has a wavelength of 3.012 ×10−12 m. The light travels at 2.99 ×108 m/s. What is the f
horsena [70]

Answer:

Explanation:

velocity=frequency*wavelength

velocity = 2.99*10^8 m/s

frequency = ?

wavelength = 3.012*10^-12

2.99*10^8m/s = (f)(3.012*10^-12)

f=9.58*10^19 Hertz
