A catapult launches a test rocket vertically upward from a well, giving the rocket an initial speed of 80.6 m/s at ground level.

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

44.64 seconds

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2as+u^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 4.2\times 1180+80.6^2}\\\Rightarrow v=128.01\ m/s$

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 128.01=80.6+4.2t\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{128.01-80.6}{4.2}=11.29\ s$

Time taken to reach 1180 m is 11.29 seconds

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 0=128.01-9.8t\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{128.01}{9.8}=13.06\ s$

Time the rocket will keep going up after the engines shut off is 13.06 seconds.

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{0^2-128.01^2}{2\times -9.8}\\\Rightarrow s=836.05\ m$

The distance the rocket will keep going up after the engines shut off is 836.05 m

Total distance traveled by the rocket in the upward direction is 1180+836.05 = 2016.05 m

The rocket will fall from this height

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 2016.05=0t+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.8\times t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\frac{2016.05\times 2}{9.8}}\\\Rightarrow t=20.29\ s$

Time taken by the rocket to fall from maximum height is 20.29 seconds

Time the rocket will stay in the air is 11.29+13.06+20.29 = 44.64 seconds

Suppose that instead of being inclined to Earth's orbit around the Sun, the Moonâs orbit was in the same plane as Earthâs orbit

ycow [4]

Answer:

c) 12

Explanation:

A Solar eclipse occurs when The Sun, The Earth and The Moon comes in a straight line with the Moon being in between the Earth and the Sun. At this point the Moon appears to block the Sun and Moon's shadow falls on Earth. This would occur only on the day of the New Moon.

If the Moon's orbit was in the same plane as that of the Earth's orbit. Every new Moon, there would be a Solar Eclipse. The Lunar cycle is of 29.5 Days which means there will be one new Moon every month. So there will be 12 Solar Eclipses every year.

Currently, the orbit of the Moon is tilted at an angle of 5° thus we don't see that many Solar eclipses. Maximum of 5 solar eclipses can occur in an year.

ILL GIVE BRAINLY THING

Bogdan [553]

Answer:

About 3 trips

Explanation: if we do 2.5m*1.6m*0.75 it equals to 11000 then we divide that to 11m3 and it gives you 3.6 so it will be about 3 times

Imagine a simple pendulum swinging in an elevator. If the cable holding the elevator up was to snap, allowing the elevator to go

Lady_Fox [76]

One of the components that affect the period is gravity (the other is length). This gravity is basically the value of the effective acceleration that acts on the body due to gravity. When the elevator is over free fall, the effective gravity becomes zero. Mathematically this can be visualized as,

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{\dot{g_{eff}}}}$
