Answer:In order for object to be accelerating, the net force (sum of all forces) acting on the object has to be non-zero. According to Newton's Second Law of Motion, Force = Mass x Acceleration. ... If the object is sitting motionless on the ground, then the net force (sum of all forces) acting on it is zero.

The Earth's escape speed (the speed you need to get away forever) is about 40,000 kilometers per hour. Escape speed depends on t

Anvisha [2.4K]

The Moon s escape speed will be smaller than Earth's.

What is escape speed:

The minimum speed that is required for an object to free itself from the gravitational force exerted by a massive object.

The formula of escape speed is

$v = \sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R} }$

where

v is escape velocity

G is universal gravitational constant

M is mass of the body to be escaped from

r is distance from the center of the mass

we can say that,

Escape speed depends on the gravity of the object trying to hold the spacecraft from escaping.

we know that,

The Moon's surface gravity is about 1/6th as powerful or about 1.6 meters per second per second.

since, v ∝ g

The Moon s escape speed will be smaller than Earth's.

Acceleration problem Show work plz

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: vo = 25 m/s

Explanation:

data

a = -7.5 m/s²

d = 42 m

vf = 0 m/s

vo = ?

Formula

vf² = vo² - 2ad

Substitution

0² = vo² - 2(7.5)(42)

We clear vo from the equation

vo² = 2(7.5)(42)

vo² = 630 simplifying

vo = 25 m/s result

A 800 kg safe is 2.1 m above a heavy-duty spring when the rope holding the safe breaks. The safe hits the spring and compresses

stellarik [79]

Answer:

k = 17043.5 N/m = 17.04 KN/m

Explanation:

First we need to find the force applied by safe pn the spring:

F = Weight of Safe

F = mg

where,

F = Force Applied by the safe on the spring = ?

m = mass of safe = 800 kg

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

F = (800 kg)(9.8 m/s²)

F = 7840 N

Now, using Hooke's Law:

F = kΔx

where,

K = Spring Constant = ?

Δx = compression = 46 cm = 0.46 m

Therefore,

7840 N = k (0.46 m)

k = 7840 N/0.46 m

k = 17043.5 N/m = 17.04 KN/m

A box of volume V has a movable partition separating it into two compartments. The left compartment contains 3000 particles, the

storchak [24]

Answer:

a) V1 = 4V - V2/3 and V2 = 4V - 3V1

b) Δe = 4000V - 4000V2 + 9000V1

Explanation:

Let V represent volume of the box containing the two compartments

V1 represents compartment of the left compartment

V2 represents compartment of the right compartment

Momentum of the compartments before impact:

3000V1 + 1000V2

Momentum of the compartments after impact:

V(3000 + 1000) = 4000V

a) To obtain the volume of each compartment, that is, V1 and V2, we say:

Momentum before impact = Momentum after impact

3000V1 + 1000V2 = 4000V

∴ V1 = 4000V - 1000V2/3000 = 4V - V2/3

Also, V2 = 4000V - 3000V1/1000 = 4V - 3V1

b) Change in entropy,Δe = 4000V1 - 1000V2

By substituting the V1 and V2, we have:

4000(4V - V2)/3 - 1000(4V - 3V1)

16000V - 4000V2/3 - 4000V + 3000V1

16000V - 4000V2 - 12000V + 9000V1

∴ Δe = 4000V - 4000V2 + 9000V1
