(186,000 mi/sec) x (3,600 sec/hr) x (24 hr/da) x (365 da/yr)
= (186,000 x 3,600 x 24 x 365) mi/yr
= 5,865,696,000,000 miles per year (rounded to the nearest million miles)
Acceleration occurs when velocities change.velocity changes either because the speed changes or the direction change.
Answer:
16613 m/s
Explanation:
Given that
mass of the fly, m = 0.55 g = 0.55*10^-3 kg
Kinetic Energy of the fly, E = 7.6*10^4 J
Speed of the fly, v = ? m/s
We know that the Kinetic Energy is that energy that an object, in this case, the fly, possesses due to its motion.
The Kinetic Energy, KE of any object is represented by the formula
KE = 1/2 * m * v²
If we substitute the values in the relation, we have,
7.6*10^4 = 1/2 * 0.55*10^-3 * v²
v² = (15.2*10^4) / 0.55*10^-3
v² = 2.76*10^8
v = √2.76*10^8
v = 16613 m/s
Thus, the fly would need a speed of 16.6 km/s in order to have a Kinetic Energy of 7.6*10^4 J
(a) The velocity (in m/s) of the rock after 1 second is 11.28 m/s.
(b) The velocity of the rock after 2 seconds is 7.56 m/s.
(c) The time for the block to hit the surface is 4.03.
(d) The velocity of the block at the maximum height is 0.
<h3>
Velocity of the rock</h3>
The velocity of the rock is determined as shown below;
Height of the rock after 1 second; H(t) = 15(1) - 1.86(1)² = 13.14 m
v² = u² - 2gh
where;
- g is acceleration due to gravity in mars = 3.72 m/s²
v² = (15)² - 2(3.72)(13.14)
v² = 127.23
v = √127.23
v = 11.28 m/s
<h3>Velocity of the rock when t = 2 second</h3>
v = dh/dt
v = 15 - 3.72t
v(2) = 15 - 3.72(2)
v(2) = 7.56 m/s
<h3>Time for the rock to reach maximum height</h3>
dh/dt = 0
15 - 3.72t = 0
t = 4.03 s
<h3>Velocity of the rock when it hits the surface</h3>
v = u - gt
v = 15 - 3.72(4.03)
v = 0

Direction!
Velocity is a vector quantity and speed is a scalar quantity. Vector quantities includes both magnitude and direction, while scalar quantities only have magnitude. :)
