3 0

Answer:

-8.04 m/s2

Explanation:

To find the answer to this, you have to use the 4th kinematic equation:

v^{2} = v^{2}_{0}  + 2ax

You plug into the equation to get:

0 = 15^{2} + 2a(14)

solve for a to get

-8.04 m/s2

Asteroids are between 1000 km and less than 10 m in diameter. What is the diameter of most asteroids?
e-lub [12.9K]

This question needs research to be answered. From the given information alone it can't be answered without making wild assumptions.

Ideally, you need to take a look at a distribution (or a histogram) of asteroid diameters, identify the "mode" of such a distribution, and find the corresponding diameter. That value will be the answer.

I am attaching one such histogram on asteroid diameters from the IRAS asteroid catalog I could find online. (In order to get a single histogram, you need to add the individual curves in the figure first). Eyeballing this sample, I'd say the mode is somewhere around 10km, so the answer would be: the diameter of most asteroid from the IRAS asteroid catalog is about 10km.

Which of the following statements about electric field lines associated with electric charges is false? Electric field lines can
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

The false statement is 'Electric field lines form closed loops'.

Explanation:

  • Electric field lines originate from positive end and terminates at negative end,i.e., field lines are inward in direction to the negative charges and outward from the positive charges.
  • These lines when close together represents high intensity and when far apart shows low intensity of the field.
  • These lines do not intersect, as the tangent drawn on these lines provides us with the field direction and intersection of these lines means two field directions which is not possible.
  • These lines unlike magnetic field lines do not form closed loops as they do not turn around but originate at positive end and terminates at negative end which ensures no loop formation.

Zero, a hypothetical planet, has a mass of 5.3 x 1023 kg, a radius of 3.3 x 106 m, and no atmosphere. A 10 kg space probe is to
Andrej [43]

(a) 3.1\cdot 10^7 J

The total mechanical energy of the space probe must be constant, so we can write:

E_i = E_f\\K_i + U_i = K_f + U_f (1)

where

K_i is the kinetic energy at the surface, when the probe is launched

U_i is the gravitational potential energy at the surface

K_f is the final kinetic energy of the probe

U_i is the final gravitational potential energy

Here we have

K_i = 5.0 \cdot 10^7 J

at the surface, R=3.3\cdot 10^6 m (radius of the planet), M=5.3\cdot 10^{23}kg (mass of the planet) and m=10 kg (mass of the probe), so the initial gravitational potential energy is

U_i=-G\frac{mM}{R}=-(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})\frac{(10 kg)(5.3\cdot 10^{23}kg)}{3.3\cdot 10^6 m}=-1.07\cdot 10^8 J

At the final point, the distance of the probe from the centre of Zero is

r=4.0\cdot 10^6 m

so the final potential energy is

U_f=-G\frac{mM}{r}=-(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})\frac{(10 kg)(5.3\cdot 10^{23}kg)}{4.0\cdot 10^6 m}=-8.8\cdot 10^7 J

So now we can use eq.(1) to find the final kinetic energy:

K_f = K_i + U_i - U_f = 5.0\cdot 10^7 J+(-1.07\cdot 10^8 J)-(-8.8\cdot 10^7 J)=3.1\cdot 10^7 J

(b) 6.3\cdot 10^7 J

The probe reaches a maximum distance of

r=8.0\cdot 10^6 m

which means that at that point, the kinetic energy is zero: (the probe speed has become zero):

K_f = 0

At that point, the gravitational potential energy is

U_f=-G\frac{mM}{r}=-(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})\frac{(10 kg)(5.3\cdot 10^{23}kg)}{8.0\cdot 10^6 m}=-4.4\cdot 10^7 J

So now we can use eq.(1) to find the initial kinetic energy:

K_i = K_f + U_f - U_i = 0+(-4.4\cdot 10^7 J)-(-1.07\cdot 10^8 J)=6.3\cdot 10^7 J
