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

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

5N

Explanation:

We have a simple problem of momentum here.

ΔMomentum= mΔv= FΔt

Solve for F

mΔv/Δt=F

Plug in givens

1*(2-1.5)/0.1=F

F=5N

Why does the frequency of a wave increase as the wavelength decreases
olchik [2.2K]

Explanation:

We know that the number of complete waves formed in 1 sec time is frequency and the distance between two consecutive crests or troughs is wavelength. And we have the formula that

Velocity = wavelength * frequency

or, frequency = velocity / wavelength

Here we can see frequency is directly proportional to velocity and indirectly proportional to wavelength.

So as the wavelength increases frequency decreases and as the wavelength decreases frequency increases.

Hope you understood

How much work will it take to lift a 2-kg pair of hiking boots 2 meters off the
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

Option C - 39.2 J

Explanation:

We are given that;

Mass; m = 2 kg.

Distance moved off the floor;d = 10 m.

Acceleration due to gravity;g = 9.8 m/s².

We want to find the work done.

Now, the Formula for work done is given by;

Work = Force × displacement.

In this case, it's force of gravity to lift up the boots, thus;

Formula for this force is;

Force = mass x acceleration due to gravity

Force = 2 × 9.8 = 19.2 N

∴ Work done = 19.6 × 2

Work done = 39.2 J.

Hence, the Work done to life the boot of 2 kg to a height of 2 m is 39.2 J.
