One hazard of space travel is debris left by previous missions. There are several thousand objects orbiting Earth that are large

enough to be detected by radar, but there are far greater numbers of very small objects, such as flakes of paint. The force exerted by a 0.100-mg chip of paint that strikes a spacecraft window at a relative speed of 4.00 x 103 m/s, given the collision lasts 6.00 x 10-8 s is Fill input: x 106 N.

Answer:

The correct answer is "6666.67 N".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Mass,

m = 0.100

Relative speed,

v = 4.00 x 10³

time,

t = 6.00 x 10⁻⁸

As we know,

⇒ $F=m(\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} )$

On substituting the given values, we get

⇒ $=0.100\times 10^{-6}(\frac{4\times 10^3}{6\times 10^{-8}} )$

⇒ $=6666.67 \ N$

Answer:

a.

$\displaystyle a(0 )=8.133\ m/s^2$

$\displaystyle a(2)=2.05\ m/s^2$

$\displaystyle a(4)=0.52\ m/s^2$

b. $\displaystyle X(t)=11.81(t+1.45\ e^{-0.6887t})-17.15$

c. $t=9.9 \ sec$

Explanation:

Modeling With Functions

Careful measurements have produced a model of one sprinter's velocity at a given t, and it's is given by

$\displaystyle V(t)=a(1-e^{bt})$

For Carl Lewis's run at the 1987 World Championships, the values of a and b are

$\displaystyle a=11.81\ ,\ b=-0.6887$

Please note we changed the value of b to negative to make the model have sense. Thus, the equation for the velocity is

$\displaystyle V(t)=11.81(1-e^{-0.6887t})$

a. What was Lewis's acceleration at t = 0 s, 2.00 s, and 4.00 s?

To compute the accelerations, we must find the function for a as the derivative of v

$\displaystyle a(t)=\frac{dv}{dt}=11.81(0.6887\ e^{0.6887t})$

$\displaystyle a(t)=8.133547\ e^{-0.6887t}$

For t=0

$\displaystyle a(0)=8.133547\ e^o$

$\displaystyle a(0 )=8.133\ m/s^2$

For t=2

$\displaystyle a(2)=8.133547\ e^{-0.6887\times 2}$

$\displaystyle a(2)=2.05\ m/s^2$

$\displaystyle a(4)=8.133547\ e^{-0.6887\times 4}$

$\displaystyle a(4)=0.52\ m/s^2$

b. Find an expression for the distance traveled at time t.

The distance is the integral of the velocity, thus

$\displaystyle X(t)=\int v(t)dt \int 11.81(1-e^{-0.6887t})dt=11.81(t+\frac{e^{-0.6887t}}{0.6887})+C$

$\displaystyle X(t)=11.81(t+1.45201\ e^{-0.6887t})+C$

To find the value of C, we set X(0)=0, the sprinter starts from the origin of coordinates

$\displaystyle x(0)=0=>11.81\times1.45201+C=0$

Solving for C

$\displaystyle c=-17.1482\approx -17.15$

Now we complete the equation for the distance

$\displaystyle X(t)=11.81(t+1.45\ e^{-0.6887t})-17.15$

c. Find the time Lewis needed to sprint 100.0 m.

The equation for the distance cannot be solved by algebraic procedures, but we can use approximations until we find a close value.

We are required to find the time at which the distance is 100 m, thus

$\displaystyle X(t)=100=>11.81(t+1.45\ e^{-0.6887t})-17.15=100$

Rearranging

$\displaystyle t+1.45\ e^{-0.6887t}=9.92$

We define an auxiliary function f(t) to help us find the value of t.

$\displaystyle f(t)=t+1.45\ e^{-0.687t}-9.92$

Let's try for t=9 sec

$\displaystyle f(9)=9+1.45\ e^{-0.687\times 9}-9.92=-0.92$

Now with t=9.9 sec

$\displaystyle f(9.9)=9.9+1.45\ e^{-0.687\times 9.9}-9.92=-0.0184$

That was a real close guess. One more to be sure for t=10 sec

$\displaystyle f(10)=10+1.45\ e^{-0.687\times 10}-9.92=0.081$

The change of sign tells us we are close enough to the solution. We choose the time that produces a smaller magnitude for f(t).

$At t\approx 9.9\ sec, \text{ Lewis sprinted 100 m}$

Explain how characteristic and traits are related<br>

jok3333 [9.3K]

Traits are basically your phenotype. They include things like hair color, height, and eye color. Alleles are versions of genes. ... This is a pretty basic idea of how traits and alleles are related.

A parachutist of mass 100 kg falls from a height of 500 m. Under realistic conditions, she experiences air resistance. Based on

antoniya [11.8K]

Given:
mass: 100 kg
height: 500 m
1 kJ = 1000 J
gravity = 9.8 m/s²

velocity before impact: v = √2gh ; v = √2 * 9.8 m/s² * 500 m ; v = 98.99494 m/s

KE = 1/2 m v²
KE = 1/2 * 100 kg * (98.99494 m/s)²
KE = 490,000 J

A manufacturer claims its cleanser works twice as fast as any other. Could test be performed to support the claim? Explain

lora16 [44]

Yes, a test could be performed to support the claim.

Hypothesis: The claim that a manufacturer’s cleanser works twice as fast as any other cleanser.

So, based from this hypothesis, we can perform the following tests:

We assign Cleanser A to the manufacturer that claims that their cleanser works twice as fast as any other cleanser and Cleanser B to the cleanser to be compared with.

1. Get two tiles and put the same amount of stain on them.

2. Apply Cleanser A on the first tile and Cleanser B on the second tile.

3. Apply the same amount of force in removing the stains on both tiles

4. Record the amount of time it takes to remove the stains on each tile.
