Answer:

t = 0.196 s

Explanation:

The speed of a pulse is determined by the characteristics of the medium, its density and its resistance to stress, as long as these remain the speed will be constant for which we can use the kinetic expressions of the uniform movement

          v = x / t

          t = x / v

calculate

          t = 2/102

          t = 0.196 s

A car moves with the speed of 120m/s for 4 minutes ,calculate the distance covered by the car​
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

960 m

Explanation:

Given that,

  • Speed = 120 m/s
  • Time taken = 4 minutes

We have to find the distance covered.

Firstly, let's convert time in seconds.

→ 1 minute = 60 seconds

→ 4 minutes = (4 × 60) seconds

→ 4 minutes = 240 seconds

Now, we know that,

→ Distance = Speed × Time

→ Distance = (4 × 240) m

→ Distance = 960 m

Therefore, distance covered is 960 m.

A 126- kg astronaut (including space suit) acquires a speed of 2.70 m/s by pushing off with her legs from a 1800-kg space capsul
jeka94

The change in the speed of the space capsule will be -0.189 m/s.

The average force exerted by each on the other will be 567 N.

The kinetic energy of each after the push for the astronaut and the capsule are 459.27 J and 32.14 J.

<h3>Given:</h3>

Mass of the astronaut, m_a = 126 kg

Speed he acquires, v_{a}  = 2.70 m/s

Mass of the space capsule, m_{c} = 1800kg

The initial momentum of the astronaut-capsule system is zero due to rest.

P_f = m_av_a + m_cv_c

P_I = 0

m_av_a + m_cv_c = 0

v_c =\frac{- m_a v_a}{m_c}}\\\\

   = \frac{126* 2.70}{1800}

   = - 0.189 m/s

Therefore,

According, to the impulse-momentum theorem;

FΔt = ΔP

ΔP = m Δv

ΔP = 126×2.70

    = 340.2 kgm/sec

t is time interval = 0.600s

F = ΔP/Δt

F = 340.2/0.600

  = 567 N

Therefore, the average force exerted by each on the other will be 567 N.

The Kinetic Energy of the astronaut;

K.E = \frac{1}{2} m v^2

     = \frac{1}{2} × 126 × (2.70) ^2

     = 459.27 J

The Kinetic Energy of the capsule;

K.E = \frac{1}{2} m v^2

     = \frac{1}{2}×1800×(0.189) ^2

     = 32.14 J

Therefore, the kinetic energy of each after the push for the astronaut and the capsule are 459.27 J and 32.14 J.
