An undiscovered planet, many lightyears from Earth, has one moon in a periodic orbit. This moon takes 2060 × 103 seconds (about

24 days) on average to complete one nearly circular revolution around the unnamed planet. If the distance from the center of the moon to the surface of the planet is 235.0 × 106 m and the planet has a radius of 3.90 × 106 m, calculate the moon's radial acceleration ????c .

Answer:

Acceleration, a=2.22\times 10^{-3}\ m/s^2

Explanation:

It is given that,

Time period of revolution of the moon, T=2060\times 10^3\ s

If the distance from the center of the moon to the surface of the planet is, h=235\times 10^6\ m

The radius of the planet, r=3.9\times 10^6\ m

Let a is the moon's radial acceleration. Mathematically, it is given by :

a=R\times \omega^2, R is the radius of orbit

Since, \omega=\dfrac{2\pi}{T}

The radius of orbit is,

R=r+h

R=3.9\times 10^6\ m+235\times 10^6\ m=238900000\ m

So, a=\dfrac{4\pi^2 R}{T^2}

a=\dfrac{4\pi^2 \times 238900000}{(2060\times 10^3)^2}

a=2.22\times 10^{-3}\ m/s^2

Hence, this is the required solution for the radial acceleration of the moon.

It is claimed that if a lead bullet goes fast enough, it can melt completely when it comes to a halt suddenly, and all its kinet
TEA [102]

Answer:

v=346.05\ m.s^{-1}

Explanation:

Given:

initial temperature of the lead bullet, T_i=43^{\circ}C

latent heat of fusion of lead, L_f=2.32\times 10^4\ J.kg^{-1}

melting point of lead, T_m=327.3^{\circ}C

We have:

specific heat capacity of lead, c=129\ J.kg^{-1}.K^{-1}

<em>According to question the whole kinetic energy gets converted into heat which establishes the relation:</em>

\rm KE=(heat\ of\ rising\ the\ temperature\ from\ 43\ to\ 327.3\ degree\ C)+(heat\ of\ melting)

\frac{1}{2} m.v^2=m.c.\Delta T+m.L_f

\frac{1}{2} m.v^2=m(c.\Delta T+L_f)

\frac{v^2}{2} =129\times(327.3-43)+23200

v=346.05\ m.s^{-1}

When the leveling bulb is higher than the water level, the pressure in the system is greater than atmospheric pressure.
malfutka [58]

When the leveling bulb is higher than the water level, the pressure in the system is greater than atmospheric pressure. This statement is true.

In the physical sciences, pressure is defined as the stress at a point within a confined fluid or the perpendicular force per unit area. A 42-pound box with a bottom area of 84 square inches will impose pressure on a surface equal to the force divided by the area it is applied to, or half a pound per square inch.

Atmospheric pressure, which is roughly 15 pounds per square inch at sea level, is the weight of the atmosphere pressing down on each unit area of the Earth's surface. Pascals are used to express pressure in SI units; one pascal is equivalent to one newton per square meter. Almost 100,000 pascals of atmospheric pressure are present.

Formulating a Hypothesis: Part I Since the investigative question has two variables, you need to focus on each one separately. T
Westkost [7]

Answer : The kinetic energy depends directly on the mass of a particle.

Explanation :

We know that the kinetic energy of any particle is given by :

KE=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

Where,

m is the mass of an object.

v is the velocity with which it is moving

Kinetic energy is due to the motion of the particle.

So, the kinetic energy of a particle is directly proportional to its mass.

Hence, the conclusion of the question is if the mass of a particle is increases then its kinetic energy also increase.

Suppose you have a 75-watt light bulb that you leave turned on for two minutes. How much energy
victus00 [196]

Answer:

9000 J

Explanation:

Convert minutes to seconds.

2 min = 120 s

Power = energy / time

75 W = E / 120 s

E = 9000 J
