Answer:
a = 2.72 [m/s2]
Explanation:
To solve this problem we must use the following kinematics equation:
where:
Vf = final velocity = 1200 [km/h]
Vo = initial velocity = 25 [km/h]
t = time = 2 [min] = 2/60 = 0.0333 [h]
1200 = 25 + (a*0.0333)
a = 35250.35 [km/h2]
if we convert these units to units of meters per second squared
Answer:
E = 3.54 x 10⁻¹⁹ J
Explanation:
The energy of the photon can be given in terms of its wavelength by the use of the following formula:
where,
E = energy = ?
h = Plank's Constant = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ Js
c = speed of light = 2.998 x 10⁸ m/s
λ = wavelength of light = 560.6 nm = 5.606 x 10⁻⁷ m
Therefore,
<u>E = 3.54 x 10⁻¹⁹ J</u>
Answer:
18.2145 meters
Explanation:
Using the conservation of momentum, we have that:
m1 = m1' is the mass of the astronaut, m2=m2' is the mass of the satellite, v1 and v2 are the inicial speed of the astronaut and the satellite (v1 = v2 = 0), and v1' and v2' are the final speed of the astronaut and the satellite. Then we have that:
The negative sign of this speed just indicates the direction the astronaut goes, which is the opposite direction of the satellite.
If the astronaut takes 7.5 seconds to come into contact with the shuttle, their initial distance is:
