A large meteoroid enters the Earth's atmosphere at a speed of 20.0 km/s and is not significantly slowed before entering the ocea
Shalnov [3]

The shock wave from the meteoroid in the lower atmosphere has a Mach angle of 0.948°.

(a) The meteoroid's speed v_s=20 \mathrm{~km} / \mathrm{s}

$=20 \times 10^3 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$

Air sound wave speed &v=331 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s} \\

Speed of the shock wave in Mach &\qquad \theta=\sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{v}{v_s}\right)

                                                            $$\begin{aligned}&=\sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{331 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}}{20 \times 10^3 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}}\right) \\&=0.948^{\circ}\end{aligned}$$

Hence, 0.948° is the Mach angle of the shock wave from the meteoroid in the lower atmosphere.

<h3>What is the speed of the meteoroid?</h3>

A meteoroid's speed can be loosely broken down into three categories: slow, medium, and fast.

  • Slow meteors move around the sun at a leisurely pace of about 32 kilometers per second (20 miles per second).
  • Medium-speed meteors travel around the sun at approximately 50 kilometers per second (30 miles per second),
  • while fast meteors zoom past at over 120 kilometers per second (75 miles per second)!

Sara and Greg built an electromagnet in science class. They wrapped 50 turns of copper wire around an iron nail and hooked the e
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:Wrap more turns of wire around the nail.

Explanation:The power of an electromagnet is directly proportional to the amount of electricity passing through that electromagnet.

Now,if they increase the number of rounds of the copper coil,the electricity conducting surface amount will also increase.

And that's why the electricity passing through that electromagnet will increase along with the electromagnetic power of that electromagnet.

• Increasing the battery voltage :

If they increase the battery voltage,the electricity which is passing through that electromagnet will also increase in amount .

And as discussed previously,the increasing amount of electricity will also increase the electromagnetic abilities of the electromagnet.

A ball is launched from a 300m cliff and lands 380m away from the cliff in 9 seconds. Calculate the initual speed and the angle
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Maximum height H = 300m

Range (horizontal distance) = 380m

Required

Initial speed U and the angle of the ball when it was launched.​

Range = U√2H/g

380 = U√2(300)/9.8

380 = U√600/9.8

380 = 7.8246U

U = 380/7.8246

U = 48.57m/s

The initial speed is 48.57m/s

b) Using the formula for calculating time of flight;

T = 2Usin theta/g

9 = 2(48.57)sin theta/9.8

9*9.8 = 97.14sin theta

88.2 = 97.14sin theta

88.2/97.14 = sin theta

sin theta = 0.9079

theta = sin^-1(0.9079)

theta = 65.23°

hence the angle when the ball was launched is 65.23°

What can stay constant if there were no forces
Komok [63]

If an object experiences no net force, its velocity will remain constant. The object is either at rest and the velocity is zero, or it moves in a straight line with a constant speed.
