Answer: 2.94×10^8 J
Explanation:
Using the relation
T^2 = (4π^2/GMe) r^3
Where v= velocity
r = radius
T = period
Me = mass of earth= 6×10^24
G = gravitational constant= 6.67×10^-11
4π^2/GMe = 4π^2 / [(6.67x10^-11 x6.0x10^24)]
= 0.9865 x 10^-13
Therefore,
T^2 = (0.9865 × 10^-13) × r^3
r^3 = 1/(0.9865 × 10^-13) ×T^2
r^3 = (1.014 x 10^13) × T^2
To find r1 and r2
T1 = 120min = 120*60 = 7200s
T2 = 180min = 180*60= 10800s
Therefore,
r1 = [(1.014 x 10^13)7200^2]^(1/3) = 8.07 x 10^6 m
r2 = [(1.014 x 10^13)10800^2]^(1/3) = 10.57 x 10^6 m
Required Mechanical energy
= - GMem/2 [1/r2 - 1/r1]
= (6.67 x 10^-11 x 6.0 x 10^24 * 50)/2 * [(1/8.07 × 10^-6 )- (1/10.57 × 10^-6)]
= (2001 x 10^7)/2 * (0.1239 - 0.0945)
= (1000.5 × 10^7) × 0.0294
= 29.4147 × 10^7 J
= 2.94 x 10^8 J.
Answer:
Explanation:
s = s₀ + v₀t + ½at²
s = 0 + 0(15) + ½(6)(15²)
s = 675 m
Not sure what the free fall acceleration is needed for, but if the object is dropped from a high enough point, it will travel in 15 seconds
s = ½10(15²) = 2250 m if air resistance is ignored
Answer:
e) indicated that the speed of light is the same in all inertial reference frames.
Explanation:
In 18th century, many scientists believed that the light just like air and water needs a medium to travel. They called this medium <em>aether</em>. They believed that even the space is not empty and filled with aether.
Michelson and Morley tried to prove the presence and speed of this aether through an interference experiment in 1887. They made an interferometer in which light was emitted at various angles with respect to the supposed aether. Both along the flow and against the flow to see the difference in the speed of light. But they did not find no major difference and thus it became the first proof to disprove the theory of aether.
It thus proved that the speed of light remains same in all inertial frames.
Also, it became a base for the special theory of relativity by Einstein.
Answer:
An open umbrella would not hit the ground in front of the closed one.
Explanation:
The closed umbrella would impact first because it did not have as much air pressure. The open one has air that presses against it and makes it reach where the open umbrella floats but falls slowly
There are 2 kilograms of water in 2 liters of water. if you convert the amount of water to kilograms it equals 2
