Answer:

free-fall acceleration = 12.25 m/s²

Explanation:

Formula for free fall acceleration is given by the gravity equation;

g = Gm/r²

Where;

M is mass of the Earth

r is radius of the Earth

G is the gravitational constant

Now, that equation applies to the earth.

For this new planet, we are told that the mass = 5 × mass of earth

And radius = 2 × radius of earth.

Thus, free fall acceleration for this planet is;

g_p = G(5m)/(2r)²

g_p = (5/4)(Gm/r²)

Gravitational constant has a value of 6.674 × 10^(−11) N.m²/kg²

Mass of the earth = 5.972 × 10^(24) kg

Radius of the earth = 6378 km = 6378000

Thus;

g_p = (5/4)(6.674 × 10^(−11) × 5.972 × 10^(24))/(6378000²) = 12.25 m/s²

To provide some perspective on the dimensions of atomic defects, consider a metal specimen that has a dislocation density of 105
-Dominant- [34]

Explanation:

LD₁ = 10⁵ mm⁻²

LD₂ = 10⁴mm⁻²

V = 1000 mm³

Distance = (LD)(V)

Distance₁ = (10⁵mm⁻²)(1000mm³) = 10×10⁷mm = 10×10⁴m

Distance₂ = (10⁹mm⁻²)(1000mm³) = 1×10¹² mm = 1×10⁹ m

Conversion to miles:

Distance₁ = 10×10⁴ m / 1609m = 62 miles

Distance₂ = 10×10⁹m / 1609 m = 621,504 miles.

A wheel starts from rest and rotates with constant angular acceleration to reach an angular speed of 11.2 rad/s in 3.07 s. (a) f
Hitman42 [59]
(a) The angular acceleration of the wheel is given by
\alpha =  \frac{\omega_f - \omega_i }{t}
where \omega_i and \omega_f are the initial and final angular speed of the wheel, and t the time.

In our problem, the initial angular speed is zero (the wheel starts from rest), so the angular acceleration is
\alpha =  \frac{(11.2 rad/s) - 0}{3.07 s} =3.65 rad/s^2

(b) The wheel is moving by uniformly rotational accelerated motion, so the angle it covered after a time t is given by
\theta (t) = \omega_i t +  \frac{1}{2} \alpha t^2
where \omega_i = 0 is the initial angular speed. So, the angle covered after a time t=3.07 s is
\theta=  \frac{1}{2}  \alpha t^2 =  \frac{1}{2}(3.65 rad/s^2)(3.07 s)^2 = 17.2 rad
