What is the escape speed on a spherical asteroid whose radius is 517 km and whose gravitational acceleration at the surface is 0

.636 m/s2
Physics
1 answer:
ankoles [38]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

810.94 m/s

Explanation:

Applying,

v = √(2gR)............. Equation 1

Where v = escape velocity of the spherical asteroid, g = acceleration due to gravity, R = radius of the earth

From the question,

Given: g = 0.636 m/s², R = 517 km = 517000 m

Substitute these values into equation 1

v = √(2×0.636×517000)

v = √(657624)

v = 810.94 m/s

Hence, the escape velocity is 810.94 m/s

While performing an experiment, the student creating the data table is not sure if a measurement from the experiment is a vector
marin [14]

Before coming into conclusion first we have to understand both scalar and vector .

A scalar quantity is a physical quantity which has only magnitude for it's complete specification.

A vector quantity is that physical quantity which not only requires magnitude but also possesses direction for it's complete specification.

So the most important factor that differentiate vector from scalar is the direction.

As per the question the student is doing an experiment where he is recording the data obtained during the process.

In order to arrange them in data table, he should ask about the direction of the quantity under consideration.


Hence the correct option is the third option(C)i.e does the measurement include direction?

Two air track carts move along an air track towards each other. Cart A has a mass of 450 g and moves toward the right with a spe
ra1l [238]

Answer:

0.465 kgm/s

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of the cart A, m1 = 450 g

Speed of the cart A, v1 = 0.85 m/s

Mass of the cart B, m2 = 300 g

Speed of the cart B, v2 = 1.12 m/s

Now, using the law of conservation of momentum.

It is worthy of note that our cart B is moving in opposite directions to A

m1v1 + m2v2 =

(450 * 0.85) - (300 * 1.12) =

382.5 - 336 =

46.5 gm/s

If we convert to kg, we have

46.5 / 100 = 0.465 kgm/s

Thus, the total momentum of the system is 0.465 kgm/s
