A certain volcano on earth can eject rocks vertically to a maximum height H. (a) How high (in terms of H) would these rocks go i

f a volcano on Mars ejected them with the same initial velocity? The acceleration due to gravity on Mars is 3.71 m/s2; ignore air resistance on both planets. (b) If the rocks are in the air for a time T on earth, for how long (in terms of T) would they be in the air on Mars?

Explanation:

a) By conservation of energy we can write

mgh on earth = mgh on mars.

mg_Eh_E=mg_Mh_M

M,E are earth and mars respectively.

h_m =\frac{g_E}{g_M}\times h_E

h_m=\frac{9.81}{3.71}\times h_E

h_m= 2.64 h_E

b) Consider the time taken for the rock to reach the top of its trajectory. By symmetry, this is T/2. Inserting this into the kinematics equation v = u+at, we get the following two sets of equations:

final velocities will be zero v= 0

0= v- g_E\frac{T}{2}

0=v- g_M\frac{T_M}{2}

This gives 2v= g_ET_E=g_mT_m and

therefore,

T_M= 2.64T_E

1. Describe how the periodic table differentiates between metals and nonmetals.
IgorC [24]
There would be a symbol on names of the elements that would say which state it would usually be in.


there are more metals in the periodic table of elements (currently) if that's what the second question is asking about

Baseball homerun hitters like to play in Denver, but<br> curveballpitchers do not. Why?
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

Because of height and lower atmospheric pressure.

Explanation:

Atmospheric pressure affects aerodynamic drag, lower pressure means less drag. At the altitude of Denver the air has lower pressure, this allows baseball players to hit balls further away.

Another aerodynamic effect is the Magnus effect. This effect causes spinning objects to curve their flightpath, which is what curveball pitchers do. A lower atmospheric pressure decreases the curving of the ball's trajectory.
