The small spherical planet called "Glob" has a mass of 7.88×10^18 kg and a radius of 6.32×10^4 m. An astronaut on the surface of
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer: The small spherical planet called "Glob" has a mass of 7.88×1018 kg and a radius of 6.32×104 m. An astronaut on the surface of Glob throws a rock straight up. The rock reaches a maximum height of 1.44×103 m, above the surface of the planet, before it falls back down.

1) the initial speed of the rock as it left the astronaut's hand is 19.46 m/s.

2) A 36.0 kg satellite is in a circular orbit with a radius of 1.45×105 m around the planet Glob. Then the speed of the satellite is 3.624km/s.

Explanation: To find the answer, we need to know about the different equations of planetary motion.

<h3>How to find the initial speed of the rock as it left the astronaut's hand?</h3>
  • We have the expression for the initial velocity as,

                           v=\sqrt{2gh}

  • Thus, to find v, we have to find the acceleration due to gravity of glob. For this, we have,

                       g_g=\frac{GM}{r^2} =\frac{6.67*10^{-11}*7.88*10^{18}}{(6.32*10^4)^2}= 0.132

  • Now, the velocity will become,

                        v=\sqrt{2*0.132*1.44*10^3} =19.46 m/s

<h3>How to find the speed of the satellite?</h3>
  • As we know that, by equating both centripetal force and the gravitational force, we get the equation of speed of a satellite as,

                       v=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r} } =\sqrt{\frac{6.67*10^{-11}*7.88*10^{18}}{1.45*10^5} } =3.624km/s

Thus, we can conclude that,

1) the initial speed of the rock as it left the astronaut's hand is 19.46 m/s.

2) A 36.0 kg satellite is in a circular orbit with a radius of 1.45×105 m around the planet Glob. Then the speed of the satellite is 3.624km/s.

A 2,100 kg car is lifted by a pulley. If the cable breaks at 4.50 m, what is the velocity of the car when it hits the ground
kirill [66]
The problem involves the conversion of potential energy to kinetic energy as the object falls from rest. Energy is conserved, so the equation used is:

PEi + KEi = PEf + KEf

Since the object is falling from rest, the initial kinetic energy is zero. Also, since the object hits the ground at its final position, the final potential energy is zero. This leaves:

PEi = KEf
mgh = 1/2 mv^2

*cancel out mass on both sides of the equation

gh = 0.5v^2
v = sqrt(2gh) = sqrt(2*9.81*4.5) = 9.40 m/s --> final ans.

A woman stands on a bathroom scale in a motionless elevator. When the elevator begins to move, the scale briefly reads only 0.90
kiruha [24]

Answer:

1 m/s² down

Explanation:

"Calculate the acceleration of the elevator, and find the direction of acceleration."

Sum of forces in the +y direction:

∑F = ma

N − mg = ma

0.9 mg − mg = ma

-0.1 mg = ma

a = -0.1 g

a = -1 m/s²
