1 answer:

5 0

Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun and the largest in the Solar System. It is a giant planet with a mass one-thousandth that of the Sun, but two and a half times that of all the other planets in the Solar System combined.

How does eating food produced locally benefit the environment?

fomenos

Answer:

Eating food produce locally makes it where big trucks don't have to bring it to the restaurant

Explanation:

When the big trucks drive it they release pollutants into the air so therefore when you get stuff produced locally you don't have the big trucks polluting the air. So therefore it is better for the environment.

A circuit has an AC voltage source in series with a 50 ohm resistor and a 113 mH inductor. The frequency is 100 cycles/sec, and

user100 [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

The rms voltage = 140/√2 = 140/1.414 = 99 V.

Reactance of inductor = wL = 2 X 3.14 X 100 X 113 X 10⁻³ =70.96 ohm.

Total resistance in terms of vector = 50+70.96j

j is imaginary unit number

Magnitude of this resistance = √ 50² + 70.96² = 86.80 ohm

current in resistance (rms) ( I ) = 99/86.80 = 1.14 A.

Power dissipated in resistor = I² R = 1.14 X 1.14 X 50 = 65 W( approx)

A parachutist bails out and freely falls 63 m. Then the parachute opens, and thereafter she decelerates at 1.5 m/s2. She reaches

yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

(a) The parachutist spent 24.84 secs in air

(b) The height the fall begins is 472 m

Explanation:

Here is the complete question:

A parachutist bails out and freely falls 63 m. Then the parachute opens, and thereafter she decelerates at 1.5 m/s2. She reaches the ground with a speed of 3.3 m/s. (a) How long is the parachutist in the air (b) At what height does the fall begin?

Explanation:

From one of the equations of kinematics for free fall

$H = ut - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$

Where H is the height

u is the initial velocity

t is the time

and g is the acceleration due to gravity (Take g = 9.8 m/s2)

Now, we can find the time spent before the parachute opens.

u = 0 m/s (we assume the parachutist starts from rest)

H = - 63 m

∴ $-63 = 0(t) - \frac{1}{2}(0.98) t^{2} \\-63 = -4.9 t\\t^{2} = \frac{63}{4.9} \\t^{2} = 12.86\\t = \sqrt{12.86} \\t = 3.59 s$

This the time spent before the parachute opens

Also from one of the equations of kinematics for free fall

$v = u - gt$

where v is the final velocity

We can determine the final velocity before the parachute opens and she starts to decelerate

∴ $v = - 9.8(3.59)\\v = - 35.18m/s$

Now, we will calculate the time spent after the parachute opens

From one of the equation of kinematics for linear motion,

$v = u + at$

Here, the initial velocity will be the final velocity just before the parachute opens, that is

$u = - 35.18 m/s$

From the question,

$v = - 3.3 m/s$

$a = 1.5 m/s^{2}$

We then get

$-3.3 = - 35.18 + (1.5)t$

$-3.3 + 35.18 = 1.5t\\31.88 = 1.5t$

$t = \frac{31.88}{1.5}$

$t = 21.25 secs$

(a) To determine how long the parachutist is in the air,

That is sum of the time used when falling freely and the time used after the parachute opens

= 3.59 secs + 21.25 secs

24.84 secs

Hence, the parachutist spent 24.84 secs in air

(b) To determine what height the fall begins

First, we will calculate the height from which the parachute opens

From one of the equation of kinematics for linear motion,

$x = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^{2} \\$

$x = -35.18(21.25) + \frac{1}{2}(1.5)(21.25)^{2} \\x = -747.58 + 338.67\\x = -408.91m\\$

$x$ ≅ $- 409m$

Hence, the height the fall begins is 63m + 409m

= 472 m

a 905 - g meteor impacts the earth at a speed of 1623 m/s. if all of its energy is entirely converted to heat in the meteor, wha

nlexa [21]

Answer: 2859.78 k

Explanation: By using the law of conservation of energy, the kinetic energy of the meteor equals the heat energy.

Kinetic energy = 1/2mv^2

Heat energy = mcΔθ

Where m = mass of meteor , v = velocity of meteor = 1623 m/s

c = specific heat capacity of meteor (iron) = 460.548 j/kg/k

Δθ = change in temperature of meteor = ?

From law ofconservation of energy, we have that

1/2mv^2 = mcΔθ

By cancelling "m" on both sides, we have that

v^2/2 = cΔθ

v^2 = 2cΔθ

(1623)^2 = 2× 460.548 × Δθ

2634129 = 921.096 × Δθ

Δθ = 2634129 / 921.096

Δθ = 2859.78 k
