Ten days after it was launched toward Mars in December 1998, the Mars Climate Orbiter spacecraft (mass 629 kg) was 2.87×106km fr
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

3494444444.44444 J

-87077491.39453 J

Explanation:

M = Mass of Earth = 6.371\times 10^{6}\ kg

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²

R = Radius of Earth = 6.371\times 10^{6}\ m

h = Altitude = 2.87\times 10^9\ m

m = Mass of satellite = 629 kg

v = Velocity of spacecraft = 1.2\times 10^4\ km/h

The kinetic energy is given by

K=\frac{1}{2}629\times \left(1.2\times 10^4\times \dfrac{1000}{3600}\right)^2\\\Rightarrow K=3494444444.44444\ J

The spacecraft's kinetic energy relative to the earth is 3494444444.44444 J

Potential energy is given by

U=-\dfrac{GMm}{R_e+h}\\\Rightarrow U=-\dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 5.97\times 10^{24}\times 629}{2.87\times 10^9+6.371\times 10^{6}}\\\Rightarrow U=-87077491.39453\ J

The potential energy of the earth-spacecraft system is -87077491.39453 J

A 600kg car is at rest, and then it accelerates to 5 m/s.
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

1. 0 J

2. 7500 J

3. 7500 J

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass (m) of car = 600 Kg

Initial velocity (v₁) of car = 0 m/s

Final velocity (v₂) of car = 5 m/s

Original kinetic energy (KE₁) =?

Final kinetic energy (KE₂) =?

Work used =?

1. Determination of the original kinetic energy.

Mass (m) of car = 600 Kg

Initial velocity (v₁) of car = 0 m/s

Original kinetic energy (KE₁) =?

KE₁ = ½mv₁²

KE₁ = ½ × 600 × 0²

KE₁ = 0 J

Thus, the original kinetic energy of the car is 0 J.

2. Determination of the final kinetic energy.

Mass (m) of car = 600 Kg

Final velocity (v₂) of car = 5 m/s

Final kinetic energy (KE₂) =?

KE₂ = ½mv₂²

KE₂ = ½ × 600 × 5²

KE₂ = 300 × 25

KE₂ = 7500 J

Thus, the final kinetic energy of the car is 7500 J

3. Determination of the work used.

Original kinetic energy (KE₁) = 0

Final kinetic energy (KE₂) = 7500 J

Work used =?

Work used = KE₂ – KE₁

Work used = 7500 – 0

Work used = 7500 J
