The concept of critical density is just like the idea of escape velocity for a projectile launched from the earth. An object lau
ikadub [295]

Answer:

v = √ 2 G M/ R_{e}

Explanation:

To find the escape velocity we can use the concept of mechanical energy, where the initial point is the surface of the earth and the end point is at the maximum distance from the projectile to the Earth.

Initial

        Em₀ = K + U₀

Final

        Em_{f} =  U_{f}

The kinetic energy is k = ½ m v²

The gravitational potential energy is U = - G m M / r

r is the distance measured from the center of the Earth

How energy is conserved

       Em₀ =  Em_{f}

       ½ mv² - GmM / R_{e} = -GmM / r

       v² = 2 G M (1 /  R_{e} – 1 / r)

       v = √ 2GM (1 / R_{e} – 1 / r)

The escape velocity is that necessary to take the rocket to an infinite distance (r = ∞), whereby 1 /∞ = 0

        v = √ 2GM /  R_{e}

geniusboy [140]

Answer:

Apply the following formulae horizontally And get A value for time

Remember horizontal acceleration is zero

s  = ut +  \frac{1}{2}a {t}^{2}   \\ 0.8 = 1.7 \times t \\  \frac{0.8}{1.7}  = t \\ t = 0.47s

and then to find the height apply the same above equation vertically...remember vertical initial velocity is zero

s = ut +  \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2}  \\ s =  \frac{1}{2}  \times 10 \times (0.47) ^{2}  \\ s = 1.1045m

A 10.0 L tank contains 0.329 kg of helium at 28.0 ∘C. The molar mass of helium is 4.00 g/mol . Part A How many moles of helium a
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

82.25 moles of He

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Volume (V) = 10 L

Mass of He = 0.329 Kg

Temperature (T) = 28.0 °C

Molar mass of He = 4 g/mol

Mole of He =?

Next, we shall convert 0.329 Kg of He to g. This can be obtained as follow:

1 Kg = 1000 g

Therefore,

0.329 Kg = 0.329 Kg × 1000 g / 1 Kg

0.329 Kg = 329 g

Thus, 0.329 Kg is equivalent to 329 g.

Finally, we shall determine the number of mole of He in the tank. This can be obtained as illustrated below:

Mass of He = 329 g

Molar mass of He = 4 g/mol

Mole of He =?

Mole = mass / molar mass

Mole of He = 329 / 4

Mole of He = 82.25 moles

Therefore, there are 82.25 moles of He in the tank.

John accidentally drops his keys off the balcony at his apartment. John's friend Tony just happens to walk by at that moment and
EleoNora [17]

Explanation:

In order to find out if the keys will reach John or not, we can use the formula of projectile motion to find the maximum height reached by the keys:

H = V²Sin²θ/2g

where,

V = Launch Speed = 18 m/s

θ = Launch Angle = 40°

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

H = (18 m/s)²[Sin 40°]²/(2)(9.8 m/s²)

H = 6.83 m

Hence, the maximum height that can be reached by the projectile or the keys is greater than the height of John's Balcony(5.33 m).

Therefore, the keys will make it back to John.
