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:

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

If the coefficient of friction is 0.3900 and the cylinder has a radius of 2.700 m, what is the minimum angular speed of the cyli
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

w=3.05 rad/s or 29.88rpm

Explanation:

k = coefficient of friction = 0.3900

R = radius of the cylinder = 2.7m

V = linear speed of rotation of the cylinder

w = angular speed = V/R or to rewrite V = w*R

N = normal force to cylinder

N==\frac{m(V)^{2}}{R}=m*(w)^2*R

Friction force\\Ff = k*N\\Ff= k*m*w^2*R

Gravitational force \\Fg = m*g

These must be balanced (the net force on the people will be 0) so set them equal to each other.

Fg = Ff

m*g = k*m*w^2*R

g=k*w^{2}*R

w^2 =\frac{g}{k*R}

w=\sqrt{\frac{g}{k*R}} \\w =\sqrt{\frac{9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}}{0.3900*2.7m}}\\ w=\sqrt{9.306}=3.05 \frac{rad}{s}

There are 2*pi radians in 1 revolution so:

RPM=\frac{w}{2\pi }*60\\RPM=\frac{3.05\frac{rad}{s}}{2\pi}*60\\RPM= 0.498*60\\RPM=29.88

So you need about 30 RPM to keep people from falling out the bottom

A pulling force is called what?<br> A. normal<br> B. tension<br> C. balanced<br> D. compression
joja [24]
<span>There is no special name for that. Physics is usually just concerned with "forces", and doesn't specify whether the force pushes or pulls. If you want to be more specific, you can just call it a "pulling force".
I hoped this was satisfying!:)</span>

What is (3.25 x 10^5) + (7.5 x 10^4)?
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

400000

Explanation:

So first solve one part:

(3.25 * 10^5)

(3.25 * 100,000)

= 325000

Then solve the next part:

(7.5 * 10^4)

(7.5 * 10000)

= 75000

Now lastly, add the two answers:

325000 + 75000 = 400000

Therefore,

(3.25 x 10^5) + (7.5 x 10^4) = 400000
