You have just landed on Planet X. You take out a ball of mass 101 g , release it from rest from a height of 16.0 m and measure t

hat it takes a time of 2.91 s to reach the ground. You can ignore any force on the ball from the atmosphere of the planet. How much does the ball weigh on the surface of Planet X?

Answer:

0.3817 N

Explanation:

Remark

One thing is certain: the ball has a mass of 101 grams wherever it is in the universe. That is not true of the force. The force on the moon is a whole lot less than it is on earth, and maybe planet x as well.

Givens

m = 101 g

vi = 0       That's what at rest means.

t = 2.91 s

d = 16 m

F= ?

Formulas

d = vi*t + 1/2*a * t^2

Force = m * a

Solution

16 = 0 + 1/2 a * 2.91^2

16 = 4.234 a                       Divide by 4.234

16/4.234 = a

a = 3.779

F = m * a

a = 3.779

m = 101 g = 1 kg / 1000 grams

m = 0.101 kg

F = 0.101 * 3.779

F = 0.3817N

The space shuttle usually orbited Earth at altitudes of around 300.0 km. 1) Determine the time for one orbit of the shuttle abou
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

distance of shuttle from centre of the earth = radius of the orbit

= 6300 + 300 = 6600 km

= 6600 x 10³

Formula of time period of the satellite

T = 2π R /v₀ , v₀ is orbital velocity

v₀ = √gR , ( if height  is small with respect to radius )

T = 2π R /√gR

= 2π√ R /√g

= 2 x 3.14 x √ 6600 x 10³ / √9.8

= 2 x 3.14 x 256.9 x 10 / 3.13

= 5154.41 s

= 5154.41 / 60 minutes

= 85.91 m

85.9 minutes.

2 ) No of sunrise per day = no of rotation per day

= 24 x 60 / 85.9

= 16.76

or 17 sunrises.

How many electrons flow through a point in a wire in 7.00 s if there is a constant current of I = 4.35 A?
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

1.90×10²⁰ Electrons

Explanation:

From the question,

Q = It.................... Equation 1

Where Q = charge flowing through the wire, I = current, t = time

Given: I = 4.35 A, t = 7.00 s

Substitute these values into equation 1

Q = 4.35(7.00)

Q = 30.45 C.

But,

1 electron contains 1.6×10⁻¹⁹ C

therefore,

30.45 C = 30.45/1.6×10⁻¹⁹  electrons

= 1.90×10²⁰ Electrons
