A meteoroid is moving towards a planet. It has mass m= 0.18x10⁹ kg and speed v1 = 5.9x10⁷ m/s at distance R1 = 2.9x10⁷ m from th
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

5.90000114e+7 m/s

Explanation:

Given values

M₁ = 1.8e+8 kg

M₂ = 2.4e+25 kg

M = M₁ + M₂ = 2.400000000000000018e+25 kg

G = 6.6743e-11 m³ kg⁻¹ sec⁻²

GM = 1.60183200000000001201374e+15 m³ sec⁻²

r₁ = 2.9e+7 m

v₁ = 5.9e+7 m/s

R = 2.2e+6 m

The total energy of the meteroid per unit mass at time t₁ is

E/M₁ = 0.5v₁² − GM/r₁ = 1.7404999447644137931034478615952e+15 m²/s²

At impact,

E/M₁ = 0.5v₂² − GM/R = 1.7404999447644137931034478615952e+15 m²/s²

v₂ = √[2(E/M₁ + GM/R)] = 5.9000011404572937396882314817886e+7 m/s

v₂ − v₁ ≈ 11.4 m/s

A 20 kg sled stars at the top of a hill which is 10 m above the bottom and slides a distance of 50 m, ending at the bottom of th
katrin [286]

Answer:

80 Joules.

Explanation:

Given that a 20 kg sled stars at the top of a hill which is 10 m above the bottom and slides a distance of 50 m, ending at the bottom of the hill with a speed of 8 m/s. During the slide, the work done by gravity is about ?

The parameters given are:

Mass M = 20 kg

Height h = 10 m

Velocity V = 8 m/s

The workdone by gravity will be equal to the total energy

At the bottom of the hill, the total energy will be equal to the maximum kinetic energy.

Maximum K.E = 1/2mv^2

K.E = 1/2 × 20 × 8

K.E = 80J

Therefore, the workdone by the gravity is equal to 80 Joules.

A truck travels to and from a stone quarry that is located 2.5 km to the east. What is the total distance traveled by the truck?
scoray [572]

Answer:

5 km

0

Explanation:

The question says the truck travelled to and fro from the stone quarry.

When going to the stone quarry, the distance was 2.5 km to the east.

On returning, the distance back is also 2.5km

Therefore total distance travelled is 2.5km + 2.5km

= 5km

The displacement 8s dependent on what is the initial and also the final position. The initial and the final position are one and the same thing. Because the truck starts and goes back to the same position, the displacement is zero.
