Then the object moves in a circle.
Answer: 24 hours
Explanation: One day is one rotation of the Earth, but it takes the earth 365 days to do one revolution or one year
Very efficient because it uses less then half to do the action then the vacuum actually stores.
Answer:
Explanation:
a. Landing height is
H=1.3m
Velocity of lander relative to the earth is, i.e this is the initial velocity of the spacecraft
u=1.3m/s
Velocity of lander at impact, i.e final velocity is needed
v=?
The acceleration due to gravity is 0.4 times that of the one on earth,
Then, g on earth is approximately 9.81m/s²
Then, g on Mars is
g=0.4×9.81=3.924m/s²
Then using equation of motion for a free fall body
v²=u²+2gH
v²=1.3²+2×3.924×1.3
v²=1.69+10.2024
v²=11.8924
v=√11.8924
v=3.45m/s
The impact velocity of the spacecraft is 3.45m/s
b. For a lunar module, the safe velocity landing is 3m/s
v=3m/s.
Given that the initial velocity is 1.2m/s²
We already know acceleration due to gravity on Mars is g=3.924m/s²
The we need to know the maximum height to have a safe velocity of 3m/s
Then using equation of motion
v²=u²+2gH
3²=1.2²+2×3.924H
9=1.44+7.848H
9-1.44=7.848H
7.56=7.848H
H=7.56/7.848
H=0.963m
The the maximum safe landing height to obtain a final landing velocity of 3m/s is 0.963m
