Find the final velocity

Physics
1 answer:
Verizon [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: v = 4.4 m/s

Explanation:

In the absence of friction, the total mechanical energy will be constant

KE₀ + PE₀ = KE₁ + PE₁

0 + mg(6) = ½mv₁² + mg(5)

½mv₁² = mg(6 - 5)

v = √(2g(1)) = 4.4 m/s

Six artificial satellites circle a space station at constant speed. The mass m of each satellite, distance L from the space stat
nikklg [1K]

Answers:

a) T_{2}>T_{5}>T_{1}>T_{3}=T_{6}>T_{4}

b) a_{4}>a_{6}>a_{1}>a_{3}>a_{5}>a_{2}

Explanation:

a) Since we are told the satellites circle the space station at constant speed, we can assume they follow a uniform circular motion and their tangential speeds V are given by:

V=\omega L=\frac{2\pi}{T} L (1)

Where:

\omega is the angular frequency

L is the radius of the orbit of each satellite

T is the period of the orbit of each satellite

Isolating T:

T=\frac{2 \pi L}{V} (2)

Applying this equation to each satellite:

T_{1}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{1}}=261.79 s (3)

T_{2}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{2}}=1570.79 s (4)

T_{3}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{3}}=196.349 s (5)

T_{4}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{4}}=98.174 s (6)

T_{5}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{5}}=785.398 s (7)

T_{6}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{6}}=196.349 s (8)

Ordering this periods from largest to smallest:

T_{2}>T_{5}>T_{1}>T_{3}=T_{6}>T_{4}

b) Acceleration a is defined as the variation of velocity in time:

a=\frac{V}{T} (9)

Applying this equation to each satellite:

a_{1}=\frac{V_{1}}{T_{1}}=0.458 m/s^{2} (10)

a_{2}=\frac{V_{2}}{T_{2}}=0.0254 m/s^{2} (11)

a_{3}=\frac{V_{3}}{T_{3}}=0.4074 m/s^{2} (12)

a_{4}=\frac{V_{4}}{T_{4}}=1.629 m/s^{2} (13)

a_{5}=\frac{V_{5}}{T_{5}}=0.101 m/s^{2} (14)

a_{6}=\frac{V_{6}}{T_{6}}=0.814 m/s^{2} (15)

Ordering this acceerations from largest to smallest:

a_{4}>a_{6}>a_{1}>a_{3}>a_{5}>a_{2}

Which element of a valid contract is established by getting the signatures of all parties?
sweet [91]

The element of a valid contract which is established by getting the signatures of all parties is <u>mutual agreement</u>

<h3>What is an element of a valid contract?</h3>

An element of a valid contract simply refers to that promise made between two or more parties that which allow the courts to make judgement.

Some elements of valid contract are:

  • Offer
  • Acceptance
  • Consideration
  • Intention to create legal relation
  • Certainty and capacity.

So therefore, the element of a valid contract which is established by getting the signatures of all parties is mutual agreement

A diffraction grating has 500 slits/mm. What is the longest wavelength of light for which there will be a third-order maximum?
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

The longest wavelength of light  is 666.7 nm

Explanation:

The general form of the grating equation is

mλ = d(sinθi + sinθr)

where;

m is third-order maximum = 3

λ is the wavelength,

d is the slit spacing (m/slit)

θi  is the incident angle

θr is the diffracted angle

Note: at longest wavelength, sinθi + sinθr = 1

λ = d/m

d = 1/500 slits/mm

λ = 1 mm/(500 *3) = 1mm/1500 = 666.7 X 10⁻⁶ mm = 666.7 nm

Therefore, the longest wavelength of light  is 666.7 nm

A freight car with a mass of 10 metric tons is rolling at 108 km/h along a level track when it collides with another freight car
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

20 metric tons

Explanation:

Using the Principle of Conservation of Linear Momentum which states that the total momentum of a system is constant in any direction in which no external force acts.

momentum before collision= momentum after collision

mathematically expressed as

m1u1 + m2u2 = m1v1+m2v2 =0

where:

m1= mass of rolling freight car = 10 metric tons = 10Mg

1 ton = 1000kg= 1Mg

u1 =initial velocity of freight car = 108km/h,

m2 = mass of stationary freight car = ?, this the unknown we are finding

u2 = initial velocity of

m2 = 0, because it is at rest,

v1= final velocity of m1,

v2= final velocity of m2

since they move together in the same direction they share a common final velocity as such

v1=v2= 36km/h

substituting valves in expression give

m1u1 + m2u2 = m1v1 + m2v2= 0

10Mgx 108km/hr + m2 x 0 = 10Mg x 36km/h + m2x36km/h

1080( Mg x km/hr) + 0 = 360 (Mg x Km/h) + 36m2 (km/h)

1080 (Mgx km/hr) - 360(Mg x km/h) = 36m2 (km/h)

720(Mg x km/h) = 36m2 (km/h)

divide both side by  36 (km/h) gives

m2 = 20Mg =20 metric tons
