Answer:

Galactic disk

Explanation:

Galactic disc's are composed mostly of the galaxy's stars and a gaseous component mostly composed of cool gas and dust. The stellar population of galactic discs tend to exhibit very little random motion with most of its stars undergoing nearly circular orbits about the galactic center. This circular orbit maintains the galaxy's rotation momentum.

Answer: C. Galactic disk

Explanation:

The part of the Milky Way which allows the determination of it rotational direction is known as the Galactic disk. This disc are shaped because they contain gases which are rich and dynamically young. It is also a part of a group of a galaxies disc is a component of disc galaxies, known as spiral galaxies and lenticular galaxies.

A uniform disk, a thin hoop, and a uniform sphere, all with the same mass and same outer radius, are each free to rotate about a
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

4 hoop, disk, sphere

Explanation:

Because

We are given data that

Hoop, disk, sphere have Same mass and radius

So let

And Initial angular velocity, = 0

The Force on each be F

And Time = t

Also let

Radius of each = r

So let's find the inertia shall we!!

I1 = m r² /2

= 0.5 mr² the his is for dis

I2 = m r² for hoop

And

Moment of inertia of sphere wiil be

I3 = (2/5) mr²

= 0.4 mr²

So

ωf = ωi + α t

= 0 + ( τ / I ) t

= ( F r / I ) t

So we can see that

ωf is inversely proportional to moment of inertia.

And so we take the

Order of I ( least to greatest ) :

I3 (sphere) , I1 (disk) , I2 (hoop) , ,

Order of ωf: ( least to greatest)

That of omega xf is the reverse of inertial so

hoop, disk, sphere

A body is thrown up with a velocity of 78.4 m per second.How high will it rise and how much time it will take to return to its p
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

The maximum height reached by the body is 313.6 m

The time to return to its point of projection is 8 s.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the body, u = 78.4 m/s

at maximum height (h) the final velocity of the body (v) = 0

The following equation is applied to determine the maximum height reached by the body;

v² = u² - 2gh

0 = u² - 2gh

2gh = u²

h = u²/2g

h = (78.4²) / (2 x 9.8)

h = 313.6 m

The time to return to its point of projection is calculated as follows;

at maximum height, the final velocity becomes the initial velocity = 0

h = v + ¹/₂gt²

h = 0 + ¹/₂gt²

h =  ¹/₂gt²

2h = gt²

t² = 2h/g

t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} } \\\\t = \sqrt{\frac{2\times 313.6}{9.8} }\\\\t = 8 \ s

NASA is designing a Mars-lander that will enter the Martian atmosphere at high speed. To land safely it must slow to a constant
Viktor [21]

Answer:

a) maximum mass of the Mars lander to ensure it can land safely is 200 kg

b) area of the parachute required is 480 m² which is larger than 400 m²

c) area of the parachute should be 12.68 m²

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

V = 20 m/s

A = 200 m²

drag co-efficient CD = 1.855

g = 3.71 m/s²

density of the atmospheric pressure β = 0.01 kg/m³

a. Calculate the maximum mass of the Mars lander to ensure it can land safely?

Drag force FD = 1/2 × CD × β × A × V²

we substitute

FD = 1/2 × 1.855 × 0.01 kg/m × 200 m² × ( 20 m/s )²

FD = 742 N

we know that;

FD = Fg

Fg = gravity force

Fg = mg

so

FD = mg

m = FD/g

we substitute

m = 742 N / 3.71 m/s²

m = 200 kg

Therefore, the maximum mass of the Mars lander to ensure it can land safely is 200 kg

b. The mission designers consider a larger lander with a mass of 480 kg. Show that the parachute required would be larger than 400 m²;

Given that;

M = 480 kg

Show that the parachute required would be larger than 400 m²

we know that;

FD = Fg = Mg = 480 kg × 3.71 m/s²

FD = 1780.8 N

Now, FD = 1/2 × CD × β × A × V², we solve for A

A = FD / 0.5 × CD × β × V²

we substitute

A = 1780.8  / 0.5 × 1.855 × 0.1 × (20)²

A = 1780.8 / 3.71

A = 480 m²

Therefore, area of the parachute required 480 m² which is larger than 400 m²

c. To test the lander before launching it to Mars, it is tested on Earth where g = 9.8 m/s^2 and the atmospheric density is 1.0 kg m-3. How big should the parachute be for the terminal speed to be 20 m/s, if the mass of the lander is 480 kg?

Given that;

g = 9.8 m/s²,

β" = 1 kg/m³

v" = 20 m/s

M" = 480 kg

we know that;

FD = Fg = M"g

FD = 480 kg × 9.8 m/s² = 4704 N

from the expression; FD = 1/2 × CD × β × A × V²

A = FD / 0.5 × CD × β" × V"²

we substitute

A = 4704 / 0.5 × 1.855 × 1 × (20)²

A = 4704 / 371

A = 12.68 m²

Therefore area of the parachute should be 12.68 m²

In what ways is the sun the earths energizer
Anettt [7]
All sources of energy on the planet (excluding nuclear reactions) are ultimately attributable to the sun. 'Fossil fuels' are derived from what once were living organisms, and all sources of food begin with primary producers (plants and algae which utilize photosynthesis).

A 45-kg pole vaulter running at 10 m/s vaults over the bar. Her speed when she is above the bar is 1.1 m/s. Neglect air resistan
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

The altitude or height of the pole vaulter as she crosses the bar is 4.04 m.

<h3>What is the height of the pole vaulter?</h3>

The height of the pole vaulter is determined from the change in kinetic energy which is equal to the potential energy at that height.

  • Potential energy = Change in kinetic energy
  • mgh = m(v - u)²/2

h = (v - u)²/2g

h = (10 - 1.1)²/2 * 9.8

h = 4.04 m.

In conclusion, the height is determined from the potential energy at that height.
