Given required solution

M=10kg W=? W=Fd
v=5.0m/s F=mg
t=2.40s =10*10=100N
S=VT
=5m/s*2.4s
=12m
so W=12*100
W=1200J

Explanation:

acceleration = change in velocity / change in time

a = v2-v1

V1 = 0 ( since she stopped)

V2 = 9 m/s

t =15s

a = 9 - 0

A rifle is aimed horizontally at a target 50.0 m away. The bullet hits the target 2.90 cm below the aim point. . . Whats the bul

Marina CMI [18]

The problem ask to calculate the bullet's flight time and the bullet's speed as it left the barrel. So base on the problem, the answer would be that the flight time is 0.076 seconds and the speed of the bullet is 657.9 m/s. I hope you are satisfied with my answer and feel free to ask for more if you have questions and further clarifications.

Planets are not uniform inside. Normally, they are densest at the center and have decreasing density outward toward the surface.

elena-s [515]

Answer:

$g=13.42\frac{m}{s^2}$

Explanation:

1) Notation and info given

$\rho_{center}=13000 \frac{kg}{m^3}$ represent the density at the center of the planet

$\rho_{surface}=2100 \frac{kg}{m^3}$ represent the densisty at the surface of the planet

r represent the radius

$r_{earth}=6.371x10^{6}m$ represent the radius of the Earth

2) Solution to the problem

So we can use a model to describe the density as function of the radius

$r=0, \rho(0)=\rho_{center}=13000 \frac{kg}{m^3}$

$r=6.371x10^{6}m, \rho(6.371x10^{6}m)=\rho_{surface}=2100 \frac{kg}{m^3}$

So we can create a linear model in the for y=b+mx, where the intercept b= $\rho_{center}=13000 \frac{kg}{m^3}$ and the slope would be given by $m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{\rho_{surface}-\rho_{center}}{r_{earth}-0}$

So then our linear model would be

$\rho (r)=\rho_{center}+\frac{\rho_{surface}-\rho_{center}}{r_{earth}}r$

Since the goal for the problem is find the gravitational acceleration we need to begin finding the total mass of the planet, and for this we can use a finite element and spherical coordinates. The volume for the differential element would be $dV=r^2 sin\theta d\phi d\theta dr$ .

And the total mass would be given by the following integral

$M=\int \rho (r) dV$

Replacing dV we have the following result:

$M=\int_{0}^{2\pi}d\phi \int_{0}^{\pi}sin\theta d\theta \int_{0}^{r_{earth}}(r^2 \rho_{center}+\frac{\rho_{surface}-\rho_{center}}{r_{earth}}r)$

We can solve the integrals one by one and the final result would be the following

$M=4\pi(\frac{r^3_{earth}\rho_{center}}{3}+\frac{r^4_{earth}}{4} \frac{\rho_{surface}-\rho_{center}}{r_{earth}})$

Simplyfind this last expression we have:

$M=\frac{4\pi\rho_{center}r^3_{earth}}{3}+\pi r^3_{earth}(\rho_{surface}-\rho_{center})$

$M=\pi r^3_{earth}(\frac{4}{3}\rho_{center}+\rho_{surface}-\rho_{center})$

$M=\pi r^3_{earth}[\rho_{surface}+\frac{1}{3}\rho_{center}]$

And replacing the values we got:

$M=\pi (6.371x10^{6}m)^2(\frac{1}{3}13000 \frac{kg}{m^3}+2100 \frac{kg}{m^3})=8.204x10^{24}kg$

And now that for any shape the gravitational acceleration is given by:

$g=\frac{MG}{r^2_{earth}}=\frac{(6.67408x10^{-11}\frac{m^3}{kgs^2})*8.204x10^{24}kg}{(6371000m)^2}=13.48\frac{m}{s^2}$
