Newton's First and Second Laws of Motion:Question 3Kepler-10b, the first confirmed terrestrial extrasolar planet, is about 564 l

ight-years away from Earth. Kepler-10b is a superearth, meaning it is a little larger and more massive than Earth. It has a surface gravity that is 1.53 times that of Earth. How much thrust would be required to accelerate a 5,000-kg spacecraft 2.13 m/s2 from the surface of Kepler-10b

Answer:

F = 85696.5 N = 85.69 KN

Explanation:

In this scenario, we apply Newton's Second Law:

Unbalanced\ Force = ma\\Upthrust - Weight\ of\ Space\ Craft = ma\\F - W = ma\\F - mg = ma\\F = m(g + a)\\

where,

F = Upthrust = ?

m = mass of space craft = 5000 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity on surface of Kepler-10b = (1.53)(9.81 m/s²)

g = 15.0093 m/s²

a = acceleration required = 2.13 m/s²

Therefore,

F = (5000\ kg)(15.0093\ m/s^{2} + 2.13\ m/s^{2})\\

<u>F = 85696.5 N = 85.69 KN</u>

Meg walks with a velocity of 0.9 m/s west. She does so while riding on a train that is traveling with a velocity of 2.7 m/s east
Shkiper50 [21]
<span>Velocities are vectors so we can add them!

Let's let +x be East and -x be West.

 -0.9 + 2.7 = 1.8
 
Since our answer is positive that means East so the answer is C.</span>

How does a metamorphic rock become an igneous rock?
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

If the newly formed metamorphic rock continues to heat, it can eventually melt and become molten (magma). When the molten rock cools it forms an igneous rock. Metamorphic rocks can form from either sedimentary or igneous rocks.

A baseball is thrown at an angle of 20° relative to the ground at a speed of 25 m/s if the ball was caught 50 m from the thrower
scoray [572]

Answer:

2.1 s

Explanation:

The motion of the ball is a projectile motion. We know that the horizontal range of the ball is

d = 50 m

And that the initial speed of the ball is

u=25 m/s

at an angle of

\theta=20^{\circ}

So, the horizontal speed of the ball (which is constant during the entire motion) is

u_x = u cos \theta = 25 \cdot cos 20^{\circ} = 23.5 m/s

And since the horizontal range is 50 m, the time taken for the ball to cover this distance was

t=\frac{d}{u_x}=\frac{50}{23.5}=2.1 s

which is the time the ball spent in air.
