Answer:

50 W

Explanation:

<h3><u>Given :</u></h3>

  • Force applied = 100 N
  • Distance covered = 5 metres
  • Time = 10 seconds

<h3><u>To find :</u></h3>

Power

<h3><u>Solution :</u></h3>

For calculating power, we first need to know about the work done.

\bf \boxed{Work = Force \times displacement}

Now, substituting values in the above formula;

Work = 100 × 5

= 500 Nm or 500 J

We know that,

\bf \boxed{Power=\dfrac{Work\:done}{Time\: taken}}

Substituting values in above formula;

Power = 500/ 10

= 50 Nm/s or 50 W

Hence, power = 50 W .

Two neutron stars are separated by a distance of 1.0 x 1012 m. They each have a mass of 1.0 x 1028 kg and a radius of 1.0 x 103
son4ous [18]

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Gravitational Potential Energy.

Gravitational potential energy can be defined as

PE = -\frac{GMm}{R}

As M=m, then

PE = -\frac{Gm^2}{R}

Where,

m = Mass

G =Gravitational Universal Constant

R = Distance /Radius

PART A) As half its initial value is u'=2u, then

U = -\frac{2Gm^2}{R}

dU = -\frac{2Gm^2}{R}

dKE = -dU

Therefore replacing we have that,

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 =\frac{Gm^2}{2R}

Re-arrange to find v,

v= \sqrt{\frac{Gm}{R}}

v = \sqrt{\frac{6.67*10^{-11}*1*10^{28}}{1*10^{12}}}

v = 816.7m/s

Therefore the  velocity when the separation has decreased to one-half its initial value is 816m/s

PART B) With a final separation distance of 2r, we have that

2r = 2*10^3m

Therefore

dU = Gm^2(\frac{1}{R}-\frac{1}{2r})

v = \sqrt{Gm(\frac{1}{2r}-\frac{1}{R})}

v = \sqrt{6.67*10^{-11}*10^{28}(\frac{1}{2*10^3}-\frac{1}{10^{12}})}

v = 1.83*10^7m/s

Therefore the velocity when they are about to collide is 1.83*10^7m/s

Starting from rest, a 2.1x10-4 kg flea springs straight upward. While the flea is pushing off from the ground, the ground exerts
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

1.327363 m/s

0.00090243 m

Explanation:

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

m = Mass of flea

Energy

E=\frac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)\\\Rightarrow 3.7\times 10^{-4}=2.1\times 10^{-4}(v^2-0)\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\frac{3.7\times 10^{-4}}{2.1\times 10^{-4}}}\\\Rightarrow v=1.32736\ m/s

The velocity of the flea when leaving the ground is 1.327363 m/s

W=F\times s\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{W}{F}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{3.7\times 10^{-4}}{0.41}\\\Rightarrow s=0.00090243\ m

The flea will travel 0.00090243 m upward

A machine accelerates a 5 kg missile from rest to a speed of 5 km/s. The net force accelerating the missile 500,000 N. How long
Gnoma [55]
Final velocity = 5km/sec = 5000 m/sec
Initial velocity = 0, mass = 5kg and force = 500,000 N
F = m(Vf-Vi)/time
Time = m(Vf-Vi)/force = 5*5000/500000 = 0.05 seconds
So, it takes 0.05 sec to arrive at the speed of 5km/s.
