C. E_{k}=2.03x10^{11}J

The kinetic energy of a body is the ability to perform work due to its movement given by the equation E_{k}=\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}.

To calculate the kinetic energy of a rocket with mass 15000kg and speed of 5200m/s:

E_{k}=\frac{1}{2}(15000kg)(5200m/s)^{2}=202800000000J=2.03x10^{11}J

A Meteorite Strikes On October 9, 1992, a 27-pound meteorite struck a car in Peekskill, NY, leaving a dent 22 cm deep in the tru
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

Acceleration of the meteorite, a=-38409.09\ m/s^2

Explanation:

It is given that,

A Meteorite after striking struck a car, v = 0

Initial speed of the Meteorite, u = 130 m/s

Distance covered by Meteorite, s = 22 cm = 0.22 m

We need to find the magnitude of its deceleration. It can be calculated using the third equation of motion as :

a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2s}

a=\dfrac{-(130)^2}{2\times 0.22}

a=-38409.09\ m/s^2

So, the deceleration of the Meteorite is -38409.09\ m/s^2. Hence, this is the required solution.

Three moles of a monatomic ideal gas are heated at a constant volume of 1.20 m3. The amount of heat added is 5.22x10^3 J.(a) Wha
k0ka [10]

Answer:

A) 140 k

b ) 5.22 *10^3 J

c) 2910 Pa

Explanation:

Volume of Monatomic ideal gas = 1.20 m^3

heat added ( Q ) = 5.22*10^3 J

number of moles  (n)  = 3

A ) calculate the change in temp of the gas

since the volume of gas is constant no work is said to be done

heat capacity of an Ideal monoatomic gas ( Q ) = n.(3/2).RΔT

make ΔT subject of the equation

ΔT = Q / n.(3/2).R

    = (5.22*10^3 ) / 3( 3/2 ) * (8.3144 J/mol.k )

    = 140 K

B) Calculate the change in its internal energy

ΔU = Q  this is because no work is done

therefore the change in internal energy = 5.22 * 10^3 J

C ) calculate the change in pressure

applying ideal gas equation

P = nRT/V

therefore ; Δ P = ( n*R*ΔT/V )

                        = ( 3 * 8.3144 * 140 ) / 1.20

                        = 2910 Pa
