What type of energy does gasoline have? How could you relate it to the movement of a vehicle that uses it?
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

Chemical potential energy is the energy stored in the chemical bonds of a substance. The various chemicals that make up gasoline contain a large amount of chemical potential energy that is released when the gasoline is burned in a controlled way in the engine of the car.

A soccer player takes a corner kick, lofting a stationary ball 33.0° above the horizon at 15.0 m/s. If the soccer ball has a mas
Alexxandr [17]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the soccer ball, m = 0.425 kg

Speed of the ball, u = 15 m/s

Angle with horizontal, \theta=33^{\circ}

Time for which the player's foot is in contact with it, \Delta t = 5.1\times 10^{-2}\ s

Part A,

The x component of the soccer ball's change in momentum is given by :

\Delta p_x=mv\ cos\theta

\Delta p_x=0.425\times 15\ cos(33)

p_x=5.34\ kg-m/s

The y component of the soccer ball's change in momentum is given by :

\Delta p_y=mv\ sin\theta

\Delta p_y=0.425\times 15\ sin(33)

p_y=3.47\ kg-m/s

Hence, this is the required solution.

An astronaut inside a spacecraft, which protects her from harmful radiation, is orbiting a black hole at a distance of 120 km fr
mestny [16]

An astronaut inside a spacecraft, which protects her from harmful radiation, is orbiting a black hole at a distance of 120 km from its center. The black hole is 5.00 times the mass of the sun and has a Schwarzschild radius of 15.0 km. The astronaut is positioned inside the spaceship such that one of her 0.030 kg ears is 6.0 cm farther from the black hole than the center of mass of the spacecraft and the other ear is 6.0 cm closer.

What is the tension between her ears?

Would the astronaut find it difficult to keep from being torn apart by the gravitational forces?

Answer:

The tension between the ears = 2.07 KN

The astronaut will find it difficult to keep and will eventually be in trouble because the tension is now greater compared to the tension in the human tissues.

Explanation:

Given that:

Orbital radius of the spacecraft (R) = 120 Km = 120 × 10³ m

Mass of the black hole (m) = 5 \ * (M \ _{sun})

where : M_{sun} = 1.99*10^{33} \ kg

Then; we have:

 m = 5*(1.99*10^{30} \ kg ) \\ = 9.95*10^{30} kg

Schwarzchild radius of the black hole

r - 15.0 km

Mass of each ear m_{ear} = 0.030 \ kg

Farther distance between one ear and the black hole (d) = 6.0 cm

= 0.06 m

Closer distance between the other ear and the black home is (d) 6.0 cm

= 0.6 cm

NOW, If we assume that the tension force should be T; then definitely the two ears will posses the same angular velocity .

The net force on the ear closer to the black hole will be:

\frac{GMm_{ear} }{(R-d)}- T = m_{ear} (R -  d) \omega^2

\frac{GMm_{ear} }{(R-d)^2}- \frac{T}{(R-d)} = m_{ear} \omega^2 \ ----> \ (1)

The net force on the ear farther to the black hole is :

\frac{GMm_{ear} }{(R+d)}- T = m_{ear} (R +  d) \omega^2

\frac{GMm_{ear} }{(R+d)^2}- \frac{T}{(R+d)} = m_{ear} \omega^2 \ ----> \ (2)

Equating equation (1) and (2) & therefore making (T) the subject of the formula; we have:

T = \frac{3GMm_{ear}d}{R^3}

T = \frac{3(6.67*10^{-11}N.m^2/kg^2)(1.95*10^{30}kg)(0.03kg)(0.06m)}{(120*10^3m)^3}

T = 2073.9 N\\T = 2.07 KN

The tension between the ears = 2.07 KN

The astronaut will find it difficult to keep and will eventually be in trouble because the tension is now greater compared to the tension in the human tissues.
