How fast would you be going (in kmh) if you had a ship that accelerated at a constant 1g for 24 hours?

Answer:

Explanation:

1 g is 9.8 m/s^2 the problem wants the results in km/h so we'll fix that really quick.

9.8 m/s^2 (1 km/1000m)(60 sec/1 min)^2(60 min/1 hour)^2 = 127008 km/hour^2

Now, I'm assuming the ship is starting from rest, and hopefully you know your physics equations. We are going to use vf = vi + at. Everything is just given, or we can assume, so I'll just solve.

vf = vi + at

vf = 0 + 127008 km/hour^2 * 24 hours

vf = 3,048,192 km/hour

If there's anything that doesn't make sense let me know.

<h2> The potential and kinetic energy of airplane are affected by these factors </h2>

Explanation:

When airplane rises up , it requires potential energy . This potential energy can be taken from the kinetic energy of airplane .

Thus if the speed of wind is larger , it can either oppose the motion of velocity or can favour the velocity of airplane . By which its kinetic energy is effected .

If the weight of airplane is changed , it will effect the potential energy required . Thus heavier plane requires higher potential energy for attaining the same height .

Thus these two factor has important role in the flight of airplane .

How does mass and force affect the motion of an object?

djyliett [7]

The greater the mass of an object, the more inertia it has, so the object resists changes to its motion better.

Two charges that are separated by one meter exert 1-n forces on each other. if the magnitude of each charge is doubled, the forc

Goshia [24]

The electrostatic force between the two charges is
$F=k_E \frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}$
where q1 and q2 are the magnitudes of the two charges, and r the distance between them.

We can see from the formula that F is proportional to the product between the two charges:
$F \sim q_1 q_2$
so, if the magnitude of each charge is doubled, the new force will get a factor 4:
$F' \sim (2 q_1 )(2 q_2 )=4 q_1 q_2 =4 F$
So, the new force will be 4 times the original force:
$F' = 4 \cdot 1N= 4N$
