Planet X has three times the free-fall acceleration of Earth.

Answer:

a) The ball goes one-third times higher on X

b) The ball goes three times higher on X.

Explanation:

a)

  • As the initial velocity is the same than on Earth, but the free-fall acceleration is three times larger, this means that the only net force acting on the ball (gravity) will be three times larger, so it is clear that the ball will reach to a lower height, as it will slowed down more quickly.
  • Kinematically, as we know that the speed becomes zero when the ball reaches to the maximum height, we can use the following kinematic equation:

        v_{f} ^{2} - v_{o}^{2}  = 2* \Delta h* g

       since vf = 0, solving for Δh, we have:

       \Delta h = h_{max} =\frac{v_{o} ^{2}}{2*g} (1)

       if v₀ₓ = v₀E, and gₓ = 3*gE, replacing in (1), we get:

     Δhₓ = 1/3 * ΔhE

      which confirms our intuitive reasoning.

b)    

  • Now, if the initial velocity is three times larger than the one on Earth, even the acceleration due to gravity is three times larger, we conclude that the ball will go higher than on Earth.
  • We can use the same kinematic equation as in (1) replacing Vox by 3*VoE, as follows:

       \Delta h = h_{max} =\frac{(3*v_{o}) ^{2}}{2*3*g} (2)

      Replacing the right side of (1) in (2), we get:

      Δhx = 3* ΔhE

      which confirms our intuitive reasoning also.

A 26-g steel-jacketed bullet is fired with a velocity of 630 m/s toward a steel plate and ricochets along path CD with a velocit
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

  F = - 3.53 10⁵ N

Explanation:

This problem must be solved using the relationship between momentum and the amount of movement.

          I = F t = Δp

To find the time we use that the average speed in the contact is constant (v = 600m / s), let's use the uniform movement ratio

        v = d / t

        t = d / v

Reduce SI system

          m = 26 g ( 1 kg/1000g) = 26 10⁻³ kg

          d = 50 mm ( 1m/ 1000 mm) = 50 10⁻³ m

Let's calculate

         t = 50 10⁻³ / 600

         t = 8.33 10⁻⁵ s

With this value we use the momentum and momentum relationship

        F t = m v - m v₀

As the bullet bounces the speed sign after the crash is negative

       F = m (v-vo) / t

       F = 26 10⁻³ (-500 - 630) / 8.33 10⁻⁵

       F = - 3.53 10⁵ N

The negative sign indicates that the force is exerted against the bullet

A white dwarf is:______.
bija089 [108]

Answer:

the exposed core of a dead star, supported by electron degeneracy pressure.

Explanation:

A white dwarf is a low luminosity exposed core of a dead star having mass comparable to the sun but volume comparable to the earth . So its density is very high . These stars have lost the capacity to generate energy through the process of fusion . Due to high gravitational energy , it goes on shrinking but ultimately balanced by electron degeneracy pressure. It is not a main sequence star as it has lost the power of fusion .
