Answer:

Yes, you are pulling on Earth. Reasoning. Third Newton's law of motion, action and reaction law, sates that for every action force, there is an equal (in magnitude) and opposite reaction force.

VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

a) the rotational speed of the clay is 3.45 rad/s

b) the value of A in the equation of motion is 0.15 m

c) the value of ϕi is 90° or π/2 rad.

Explanation:

Given that;

Revolution per minute rpm = 33( 1/3) = 100/3

The frequency f = 100 / 3(60) = 0.55 Hz

Rotational speed W = 2πf

we substitute

W = 2π × 0.55

W = 3.45 rad/s

Therefore, the rotational speed of the clay is 3.45 rad/s

given equation; y(t)=Asin(ωt+ϕi)

given that radius = 0.15 m

y(t)=(0.2)sin(ωt+ϕi)

Therefore, the value of A in the equation of motion is 0.15 m

since y(t) has the maximum value at t =0

so at t=0

y(0) = (0.15)sin(ω(0)+ϕi)

= 0.15sin(ϕi)

this will give maximum value when ϕi = 90°

y(0) = (0.15)sin(ω(0)+ϕi)

= 0.15sin(90°)

= 0.15

hence, the value of ϕi is 90° or π/2 rad.

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

The total amount of energy that would have been released if the asteroid hit earth = The kinetic energy of the asteroid = 1.29 × 10¹⁵ J = 1.29 PetaJoules = 1.29 PJ

1 PJ = 10¹⁵ J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy = mv²/2

velocity of the asteroid is given as 7.8 km/s = 7800 m/s

To obtain the mass, we get it from the specific gravity and diameter information given.

Density = specific gravity × 1000 = 3 × 1000 = 3000 kg/m³

But density = mass/volume

So, mass = density × volume.

Taking the informed assumption that the asteroid is a sphere,

Volume = 4πr³/3

Diameter = 30 m, r = D/2 = 15 m

Volume = 4π(15)³/3 = 14137.2 m³
