The 243000-lb space-shuttle orbiter touches down at about 236 mi/hr. The drag chute is deployed at 189 mi/hr, the wheel brakes a

re applied at 101 mi/hr until wheelstop, and the drag chute is jettisoned at 35 mi/hr. If the drag chute results in a deceleration of -0.000200v2 (in feet per second squared when the speed v is in feet per second) and the wheel brakes cause a constant deceleration of 3.5 ft/sec2, determine the distance s traveled from 189 mi/hr to wheelstop.

Answer:

5156.37 ft

Explanation:

Given data:

weight ( W ) = 243,000 Ib

Motion of shuttle ; from 189 mi/hr to 101 mi/hr

dv/dt = -0.0002 V^2

I/v * dv/dt = -0.0002 ds

<em>Convert mi/hr to ft/s</em> ( 1 mi/hr = 1.467 ft/s)

189 mi/hr = 277.263 ft/s

101 mi/hr = 148.167 ft/s

After Integrating

In ( 148.167 / 277.263 ) = -0.0002 ( S1 - S2 )

S1 - S2 = -0.627 / -0.0002

S1 - S2 = 3135 ft/s

Now from 101 mi/hr to 35 mi/hr

dv/dt = ( - 0.0002 V^2 + 3.5 )

ds =  V*dv / ( -0.0002 v^2 - 3.5 )

given :  35 mi/hr = 51.345 ft/s

             101 mi/hr = 148.167 ft/s

Integrate

S3 - S2 = - In( 0.0002 v^2 + 3.5 ) / 0.0002 * 2 ]

            = 1644.75 ft/s

S4 - S3 = 376.62 ft/s

attached below is the remaining part of the solution

Total distance travelled = 3135 + 1644.75 + 376.62 = 5156.37 ft

What is the magnitude (in N/C) and direction of an electric field that exerts a 3.50 ✕ 10−5 N upward force on a −1.55 µC charge?
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

The magnitude of electric field is  22.58 N/C

Solution:

Given:

Force exerted in upward direction, \vec{F_{up}} = 3.50\times 10^{- 5} N

Charge, Q = - 1.55\micro C = - 1.55\times 10^{- 6} C

Now, we know by Coulomb's law,

F_{e} = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_{o}\frac{Qq}{R^{2}}

Also,

Electric field, E = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_{o}\frac{q}{R^{2}}

Thus from these two relations, we can deduce:

F = QE

Therefore, in the question:

\vec{E} = \frac{\vec F_{up}}{Q}

\vec{E} = \frac{3.50\times 10^{- 5}}{- 1.55\times 10^{- 6}}

\vec{E} = - 22.58 N/C

Here, the negative side is indicative of the Electric field acting in the opposite direction, i.e., downward direction.

The magnitude of the electric field is:

|\vec{E}| = 22.58\ N/C

If two swimmers compete in a race, does the faster swimmer develop more power?
valkas [14]
Power is equal to energy per unit time. In this case, power is proportional to energy while is inversely proportional to time,on the other hand. Given the two swimmers exerts same amount of energy but the faster swimmer just does things in faster time, then the faster swimmer should develop more power from shorter time

2560 meters in 60 seconds, what is his average speed (velocity)
jok3333 [9.3K]
42.6 is the answer I believe because you would do 2,560 divided by 60 if I'm correct.
