An astronaut has a mass of 75 kg and is floating in space 500 m from his 125,000 kg spacecraft. What will be the force of gravit

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

1. 2.5×10¯⁹ N

2. 3.33×10¯¹¹ m/s²

Explanation:

1. Determination of the force of attraction.

Mass of astronaut (M₁) = 75 Kg

Mass of spacecraft (M₂) = 125000 Kg

Distance apart (r) = 500 m

Gravitational constant (G) = 6.67×10¯¹¹ Nm²/Kg²

Force of attraction (F) =?

The force of attraction between the astronaut and his spacecraft can be obtained as follow:

F = GM₁M₂ /r²

F = 6.67×10¯¹¹ × 75 × 125000 / 500²

F = 2.5×10¯⁹ N

Thus, the force of attraction between the astronaut and his spacecraft is 2.5×10¯⁹ N

2. Determination of the acceleration of the astronaut.

Mass of astronaut (m) = 75 Kg

Force (F) = 2.5×10¯⁹ N

Acceleration (a) of astronaut =?

The acceleration of the astronaut can be obtained as follow:

F = ma

2.5×10¯⁹ N = 75 × a

Divide both side by 75

a = 2.5×10¯⁹ / 75

a = 3.33×10¯¹¹ m/s²

Thus, the acceleration the astronaut is 3.33×10¯¹¹ m/s²

A ray of light passes from air into a block of clear plastic. How does the angle of incidence in the air compare to the angle of

andre [41]

Answer:

The angle of incidence is greater than the angle of refraction

Explanation:

Refraction occurs when a light wave passes through the boundary between two mediums.

When a ray of light is refracted, it changes speed and direction, according to Snell's Law:

$n_1 sin \theta_1 = n_2 sin \theta_2$

where :

$n_1$ is the index of refraction of the 1st medium

$n_2$ is the index of refraction of the 2nd medium

$\theta_1$ is the angle of incidence (the angle between the incident ray and the normal to the boundary)

$\theta_2$ is the angle of refraction (the angle between the refracted ray and the normal to the boundary)

In this problem, we have a ray of light passing from air into clear plastic. We have:

$n_1=1.00$ (index of refraction of air)

$n_2=1.50$ approx. (index of refraction in clear plastic)

Snell's Law can be rewritten as

$sin \theta_2 =\frac{n_1}{n_2}sin \theta_1$

And since $n_2>n_1$ , we have

$\frac{n_1}{n_2}$

And so

$\theta_2$

Which means that

The angle of incidence is greater than the angle of refraction

A cube has a drag coefficient of 0.8. What would be the terminal velocity of a sugar cube 1 cm on a side in air ( = 1.2 kg/mº)?

anzhelika [568]

0.495 m/s

Explanation

the formula for the terminal velocity is given by:

$\begin{gathered} v=\sqrt[]{\frac{2mg}{\sigma AC}} \\ \text{where} \\ \end{gathered}$

m is the mass

g is 9.81 m/s²

ρ is density

A is area

C is the drag coefficient

then

Step 1

Let's find the mass

$\begin{gathered} \sigma=\frac{m}{v} \\ m=\sigma\cdot v \\ \text{mass}=(2\cdot10^3\frac{\operatorname{kg}}{m^3})\cdot(0.01m)^3 \\ \text{mass}=(2\cdot10^3\frac{\operatorname{kg}}{m^3})\cdot(1\cdot10^{-6}) \\ \text{mass}=2\cdot10^{-3}\operatorname{kg} \\ \text{mass}=0.002\text{ kg } \\ \text{Area}=(0.01\text{ m}\cdot0.01m)=0.0001m^2 \end{gathered}$

now, replace

$\begin{gathered} v=\sqrt[]{\frac{2mg}{\sigma AC}} \\ v=\sqrt[]{\frac{2(0.002kg)(9.81\text{ }\frac{m}{s^2})}{(2\cdot10^3\frac{\operatorname{kg}}{m^3})(0.0001m^2)0.8}} \\ v=\sqrt[]{\frac{0.03924\frac{\operatorname{kg}m}{s^2}}{0.16\frac{\operatorname{kg}}{m^{}}}} \\ v=\sqrt[]{0.2452\frac{m^2}{s^2}} \\ v=0.495\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}$

hence, the answer is 0.495 m/s
