Where will the spacecraft be when the gravitational forces acting on it are equal?

Guys please help me out I’ll give extra points

zvonat [6]

Answer: h = 3.34 m

Explanation:

If the hat is thrown straight up, then at its highest point it has no motion and no kinetic energy. All energy is potential energy

PE = mgh

h = PE/mg = 4.92 / (0.150(9.81)) = 3.34352... ≈3.34 m

An electron and a proton each have a thermal kinetic energy of 3kBT/2. Calculate the de Broglie wavelength of each particle at a

S_A_V [24]

Answer:

Given:

Thermal Kinetic Energy of an electron, $KE_{t} = \frac{3}{2}k_{b}T$

$k_{b} = 1.38\times 10^{- 23} J/k$ = Boltzmann's constant

Temperature, T = 1800 K

Solution:

Now, to calculate the de-Broglie wavelength of the electron, $\lambda_{e}$ :

$\lambda_{e} = \frac{h}{p_{e}}$

$\lambda_{e} = \frac{h}{m_{e}{v_{e}}$ (1)

where

h = Planck's constant = $6.626\times 10^{- 34}m^{2}kg/s$

$p_{e}$ = momentum of an electron

$v_{e}$ = velocity of an electron

$m_{e} = 9.1\times 10_{- 31} kg$ = mass of electon

Now,

Kinetic energy of an electron = thermal kinetic energy

$\frac{1}{2}m_{e}v_{e}^{2} = \frac{3}{2}k_{b}T$

$}v_{e} = \sqrt{2\frac{\frac{3}{2}k_{b}T}{m_{e}}}$

$}v_{e} = \sqrt{\frac{3\times 1.38\times 10^{- 23}\times 1800}{9.1\times 10_{- 31}}}$

$v_{e} = 2.86\times 10^{5} m/s$ (2)

Using eqn (2) in (1):

$\lambda_{e} = \frac{6.626\times 10^{- 34}}{9.1\times 10_{- 31}\times 2.86\times 10^{5}} = 2.55 nm$

Now, to calculate the de-Broglie wavelength of proton, $\lambda_{e}$ :

$\lambda_{p} = \frac{h}{p_{p}}$

$\lambda_{p} = \frac{h}{m_{p}{v_{p}}$ (3)

where

$m_{p} = 1.6726\times 10_{- 27} kg$ = mass of proton

$v_{p}$ = velocity of an proton

Now,

Kinetic energy of a proton = thermal kinetic energy

$\frac{1}{2}m_{p}v_{p}^{2} = \frac{3}{2}k_{b}T$

$}v_{p} = \sqrt{2\frac{\frac{3}{2}k_{b}T}{m_{p}}}$

$}v_{p} = \sqrt{\frac{3\times 1.38\times 10^{- 23}\times 1800}{1.6726\times 10_{- 27}}}$

$v_{p} = 6.674\times 10^{3} m/s$ (4)

Using eqn (4) in (3):

$\lambda_{p} = \frac{6.626\times 10^{- 34}}{1.6726\times 10_{- 27}\times 6.674\times 10^{3}} = 5.94\times 10^{- 11} m = 0.0594 nm$

Which of the following is a quantitative observation?

liubo4ka [24]

The statement that is a quantitative observation is that bird has four different colors on it (option B).

<h3>What is a quantitative research?</h3>

A quantitative research is a systematic scientific investigation of quantitative properties and phenomena and their relationships, using statistical methods.

A quantitative observation has to do with numbers or numeric analysis.

This suggests that the statement that is a quantitative observation is that bird has four different colors on it.

On a roller coaster ride the total mass of a cart - with two passengers included - is 319 kg. Peak K is at 43.6 m above the grou

Dafna1 [17]

The mechanical energy is lost due to friction between the two peak is 78,458.688 J

<h3>What is mechanical energy?</h3>

The mechanical energy is the sum of kinetic energy and the potential energy of an object at any instant of time.

M.E = KE +PE

Given is a roller coaster ride the total mass of a cart - with two passengers included - is 319 kg. Peak K is at 43.6 m above the ground and peak L is at 24.4 m. At location K the speed of the cart is 16.4 m/s, and at location L it is 12.4 m/s.

Total energy at peak K,

TE₁ = 1/2 mv₁² +mgh₁

Substitute the values, we get

TE₁ = 1/2 x319 x 16.4² +319 x 9.81 x 43.6

TE₁ = 179,340. 524 J

Total energy at peak L,

TE₂ = 1/2 mv₂² +mgh₂

Substitute the values, we get

TE₂ = 1/2 x319 x 12.4² +319 x 9.81 x 24.4

TE₂ = 100,881. 836 J

The mechanical energy lost is

M.E = TE₁ -TE₂

M.E = 179,340. 524 J - 100,881. 836 J

M.E = 78,458.688 J

Thus, the mechanical energy is lost due to friction between the two peak i
