Physics
1 answer:
Alex Ar [27]3 years ago
6 0

Night vision cameras

Explanation:

One of the most common use of infrared waves is in night vision cameras. Infrared waves are electromagnetic radiations whose wavelengths are longer than those of visible light in the electromagnetic spectrum

They are used:

  • In night vision cameras
  • Thermal imaging whereby the radiation is used to monitor temperature differences between bodies.
  • It can also be used as source of heating.

Explanation:

potential energy =360800J

mass(m)=?

height (h)=25m

g=9.8m/s²

we have

potential energy =360800J

mgh=360800J

m×9.8×25=360800

m=360800/(9.8×25)=1472.653061kg

A projectile has an initial horizontal velocity of 15 meters per second and an initial vertical velocity of 25 meters per second
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

75 m

Explanation:

The horizontal motion of the projectile is a uniform motion with constant speed, since there are no forces acting along the horizontal direction (if we neglect air resistance), so the horizontal acceleration is zero.

The horizontal component of the velocity of the projectile is

v_x = 15 m/s

and it is constant during the motion;

the total time of flight is

t = 5 s

Therefore, we can apply the formula of the uniform motion to find the horizontal displacement of the projectile:

d= v_x t =(15 m/s)(5 s)=75 m

If the Earth were compressed in such a way that its mass remained the same, but the distance around the equator were just one-ha
vovikov84 [41]
If the distance around the equator is reduced by half, then the radius is also reduced by half.

Since the acceleration due to gravity is proportional to 1/(radius²),
the acceleration changes by a factor of 1/(1/2)² = 1/(1/4) = <em>4 </em>.

The acceleration due to gravity ... and also the weight of everything on Earth ...
becomes <em>4 times what it is now</em>.

Starting from Newton’s law of universal gravitation, show how to find the speed of the moon in its orbit from the earth-moon dis
WARRIOR [948]

Answer: 1010.92 m/s

Explanation:

According to Newton's law of universal gravitation:

F=G\frac{Mm}{r^{2}} (1)

Where:

F is the gravitational force between Earth and Moon

G=6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}} is the Gravitational Constant  

M=5.972(10)^{24} kg is the mass of the Earth

m=7.349(10)^{22} kg is the mass of the Moon

r=3.9(10)^{8} m is the distance between the Earth and Moon

Asuming the orbit of the Moon around the Earth is a circular orbit, the Earth exerts a centripetal force on the moon, which is equal to F:

F=m.a_{C} (2)

Where a_{C} is the centripetal acceleration given by:

a_{C}=\frac{V^{2}}{r} (3)  

Being V the orbital velocity of the moon

Making (1)=(2):

m.a_{C}=G\frac{Mm}{r^{2}} (4)

Simplifying:

a_{C}=G\frac{M}{r^{2}} (5)

Making (5)=(3):

\frac{V^{2}}{r}=G\frac{M}{r^{2}} (6)  

Finding V:

V=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}} (7)

V=\sqrt{\frac{(6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}})(5.972(10)^{24} kg)}{3.9(10)^{8} m}} (8)

Finally:

V=1010.92 m/s
