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

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

The center of mass of a 0.30-kg (non-uniform) meter stick is located at its 45-cm mark. What is the magnitude of the torque (in
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

The magnitude of the torque due to gravity if it is supported at the 28-cm mark is 0.5 N-m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the meter stick, m = 0.3 kg

Center of mass is located at its 45 cm mark.

We need to find the magnitude of the torque due to gravity if it is supported at the 28-cm mark. Torque acting on the object is given by :

\tau=r\times F\\\\\tau=(45-28)\times 10^{-2}\times 0.3\times 9.79\\\\\tau=0.499\ N-m

or

\tau=0.5\ N-m

So, the magnitude of the torque due to gravity if it is supported at the 28-cm mark is 0.5 N-m.

Changes that occur in the urinary system with aging include all of the following, EXCEPT
Sladkaya [172]

Answer: c. increased sensitivity to ADH

Explanation:

a. a decline in the number of functional nephrons: With aging the loss of nephron occurs that can be detected by the age related decrease in the glomerular filteration rate.

b. a reduction in the GFR (glomerular filtration rate): The GFR tend to decline in older age even though there is no disease. These people are required to check with the GFR in future.

d. problems with the micturition reflex: With aging people experience problem of bladder control. This leads to leakage or incontinence of urine or urinary retention that is inability to empty the bladder.

e. loss of sphincter muscle tone: With age the sphincter tone may diminish. This results in loss of control and storage capacity. The rectal muscles or sphincter muscles get loose which lead to passage of stool before reaching the washroom.

Based on the evidence for the impact theory, what was the most probable order of events for the collision that led to the format
anastassius [24]

Answer:

Answered

Explanation:

According to the impact theory, a glancing collision between a Mars-sized object and Earth led to the formation of the Moon. The iron core of Earth had formed before this collision, leading to the similarity between the composition of the Moon and Earth's mantle. After the collision, any iron core of the Mars-sized object would have been left behind on Earth and eventually merged with Earth's core. The Moon then formed out of the debris thrown into space by the collision.

Two balloons (m = 0.012 kg) are separated by a distance of d = 15 m. They are released from rest and observed to have an instant
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

1.492*10^14 electrons

Explanation:

Since we know the mass of each balloon and the acceleration, let’s use the following equation to determine the total force of attraction for each balloon.

F = m * a = 0.012 * 1.9 = 0.0228 N

Gravitational forces are negligible

Charge force = 9 * 10^9 * q * q ÷ 225

= 9 * 10^9 * q^2 ÷ 225 = 0.0228

q^2 = 5.13 ÷ 9 * 10^9

q = 2.387 *10^-5

This is approximately 2.387 *10^-5 coulomb of charge. The charge of one electron is 1.6 * 10^-19 C

To determine the number of electrons, divide the charge by this number.

N =2.387 *10^-5  ÷ 1.6 * 10^-19 = 1.492*10^14 electrons
