Answer:

44.8 m/s

Explanation:

Use the Initial Speed Formula:

InS = 2(d/t) - Final Speed

InS = 2(55/1,25) - 43.2

InS = 2.44 - 43,2

InS = 88 - 43,2

InS = 44.8 m/s

In a game of egg-toss, you and a partner are throwing an egg back and forth trying not to break it. Given your knowledge of mome
lutik1710 [3]
F=dP/dt.  So you want the momentum to change as slowly as possible in time to minimize the force.  So as you catch the egg, let your hand move backward with it for awhile, slowly bringing it to a stop.  If you hold your hand steady when you catch it the force due to the impact could break it.

Choose all facts that increase the orbital velocity of a vessel around planet B. Bigger mass of planet B smaller mass of planet
telo118 [61]

Answer:

- Bigger mass of planet B  

- orbiting closer to planet B

Explanation:

The orbital velocity of the vessel around the planet can be found by equalizing the force of gravity between the vessel and the planet and the centripetal force:

G\frac{mM}{r^2}=m\frac{v^2}{r}

where

G is the gravitational constant

m is the mass of the vessel

M is the mass of the planet

r is the distance between the vessel and the centre of the planet

v is the orbital velocity of the vessel

Re-arranging the formula, we find an expression for v:

v=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}

We see that:

- the bigger the mass of the planet, M, the bigger the velocity

- the bigger the distance between the vessel and the planet, r, the smaller the velocity

So, the correct choices that increase the orbital velocity are:

- Bigger mass of planet B  

- orbiting closer to planet B

A lamp is 10% efficient.How much electrical energy must be supplied to the lamp each second if it produces 20 J of light energy
k0ka [10]

If it produces 20J of light energy in a second, then that 20J is the 10% of the supply that becomes useful output.

20 J/s = 10% of Supply

20 J/s = (0.1) x (Supply)

Divide each side by 0.1:

Supply = (20 J/s) / (0.1)

<em>Supply = 200 J/s  </em>(200 watts)

========================

Here's something to think about:  What could you do to make the lamp more efficient ?  Answer:  Use it for a heater !

If you use it for a heater, then the HEAT is the 'useful' part, and the light is the part that you really don't care about.  Suddenly ... bada-boom ... the lamp is 90% efficient !

An isolated conducting sphere has a 10 cm radius. One wire carries a current of 1.000 002 0 A into it. Another wire carries a cu
romanna [79]

Answer:

t = 5.56 ms

Explanation:

Given:-

- The current carried in, Iin = 1.000002 C

- The current carried out, Iout = 1.00000 C

- The radius of sphere, r = 10 cm

Find:-

How long would it take for the sphere to increase in potential by 1000 V?

Solution:-

- The net charge held by the isolated conducting sphere after (t) seconds would be:

                                   qnet = (Iin - Iout)*t

                                   qnet = t*(1.000002 - 1.00000) = 0.000002*t

- The Volt potential on the surface of the conducting sphere according to Coulomb's Law derived result is given by:

                                   V = k*qnet / r

Where,                        k = 8.99*10^9   ..... Coulomb's constant

                                   qnet = V*r / k

                                   t = 1000*0.1 / (8.99*10^9 * 0.000002)

                                   t = 5.56 ms
