Wow ! I understand your shock. I shook and vibrated a little
when I looked at this one too.

The reason for our shock is all the extra junk in the question,
put there just to shock and distract us.

"Neutron star", "5.5 solar masses", "condensed burned-out star".
That's all very picturesque, and it excites cosmic fantasies in
out brains when we read it, but it's just malicious decoration.
It only gets in the way, and doesn't help a bit.

The real question is:

What is the acceleration of gravity 2000 m from
the center of a mass of 1.1 x 10³¹ kg ?

Acceleration of gravity is

   G · M / R²

= (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N·m²/kg²) · (1.1 x 10³¹ kg) / (2000 m)²

= (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ · 1.1 x 10³¹ / 4 x 10⁶) (N) · m² · kg / kg² · m²

=   1.83 x 10¹⁴ (kg · m / s²) · m² · kg / kg² · m²

= 1.83 x 10¹⁴    m / s²

That's about 1.87 x 10¹³ times the acceleration of gravity on
Earth's surface.

In other words, if I were standing on the surface of that neutron star,
I would weigh 1.82 x 10¹² tons, give or take.

In my trigonometry class, we were assigned a problem on Angular and Linear Velocity.

Rzqust [24]

1) 0.0011 rad/s

2) 7667 m/s

Explanation:

The angular velocity of an object in circular motion is equal to the rate of change of its angular position. Mathematically:

$\omega=\frac{\theta}{t}$

where

$\theta$ is the angular displacement of the object

t is the time elapsed

$\omega$ is the angular velocity

In this problem, the Hubble telescope completes an entire orbit in 95 minutes. The angle covered in one entire orbit is

$\theta=2\pi$ rad

And the time taken is

$t=95 min \cdot 60 =5700 s$

Therefore, the angular velocity of the telescope is

$\omega=\frac{2\pi}{5700}=0.0011 rad/s$

For an object in circular motion, the relationship between angular velocity and linear velocity is given by the equation

$v=\omega r$

where

v is the linear velocity

$\omega$ is the angular velocity

r is the radius of the circular orbit

In this problem:

$\omega=0.0011 rad/s$ is the angular velocity of the Hubble telescope

The telescope is at an altitude of

h = 600 km

over the Earth's surface, which has a radius of

R = 6370 km

So the actual radius of the Hubble's orbit is

$r=R+h=6370+600=6970 km = 6.97\cdot 10^6 m$

Therefore, the linear velocity of the telescope is:

$v=\omega r=(0.0011)(6.97\cdot 10^6)=7667 m/s$

A runner completes the 200-meter dash with a time of 19.80 seconds. What was the runner's average speed in miles per hour?

andriy [413]

Answer:

v = 22.54 mph.

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance moved, d = 200 m

Time, t = 19.8 s

We need to find the runner's average speed.

We know that,

1 mile = 1609.34 m

200 m = 0.124 miles

19.8 seconds = 0.0055 h

So,

Speed = distance/time

$v=\dfrac{0.124}{0.0055}\\\\v=22.54\ mph$

So, the runner's average speed is 22.54 mph.

A wheel moves in the xy plane in such a way that the location of its center is given by the equations xo = 12t3 and yo = R = 2,

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

the velocity of the point P located on the horizontal diameter of the wheel at t = 1.4 s is $P = 104.04 \hat{i} -314.432 \hat{j}$

Explanation:

The free-body diagram below shows the interpretation of the question; from the diagram , the wheel that is rolling in a clockwise directio will have two velocities at point P;

the peripheral velocity that is directed downward $(-V_y)$ along the y-axis

the linear velocity $(V_x)$ that is directed along the x-axis

Now;

$V_x = \frac{d}{dt}(12t^3+2) = 36 t^2$

$V_x = 36(1.7)^2\\\\V_x = 104.04\ ft/s$

Also,

$-V_y = R* \omega$

where $\omega$ (angular velocity) = $\frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{d}{dt}(8t^4)$

$-V_y = 2*32t^3)\\\\\\-V_y = 2*32(1.7^3)\\\\-V_y = 314.432 \ ft/s$

∴ the velocity of the point P located on the horizontal diameter of the wheel at t = 1.4 s is $P = 104.04 \hat{i} -314.432 \hat{j}$
