Hank and Harry are two ice skaters whiling away time by playing 'tug of war' between practice sessions. They hold on to opposite
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

the ratio of Hank's mass to Harry's mass is 0.7937 or [ 0.7937 : 1

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Hank and Harry are two ice skaters, since both are on top of ice, we assume that friction is negligible.

We know that from Newton's Second Law;

Force = mass × Acceleration

F = ma

Since they hold on to opposite ends of the same rope. They have the same magnitude of force |F|, which is the same as the tension in the rope.

Now,

Mass_{Hank × Acceleration_{Hank = Mass_{Henry × Acceleration_{Henry

so

Mass_{Hank /  Mass_{Henry = Acceleration_{Henry / Acceleration_{Hank

given that; magnitude of Hank's acceleration is 1.26 times greater than the magnitude of Harry's acceleration,

Mass_{Hank /  Mass_{Henry = 1 / 1.26

Mass_{Hank /  Mass_{Henry = 0.7937 or [ 0.7937 : 1 ]

Therefore, the ratio of Hank's mass to Harry's mass is 0.7937 or [ 0.7937 : 1 ]

A comet is in an elliptical orbit around the sun. its closest approach to the sun is a distance of 4.5 1010 m (inside the orbit
barxatty [35]

r1 = 5*10^10 m , r2 = 6*10^12 m

v1 = 9*10^4 m/s

From conservation of energy

K1 +U1 = K2 +U2

0.5mv1^2 - GMm/r1 = 0.5mv2^2 - GMm/r2

0.5v1^2 - GM/r1 = 0.5v2^2 - GM/r2

M is mass of sun = 1.98*10^30 kg

G = 6.67*10^-11 N.m^2/kg^2

0.5*(9*10^4)^2 - (6.67*10^-11*1.98*10^30/(5*10^10)) = 0.5v2^2 - (6.67*10^-11*1.98*10^30/(6*10^12))

v2 = 5.35*10^4 m/s

Suppose a free-fall ride at an amusement park starts at rest and is in free fall. What is the velocity of the ride after 2.3 s?
horsena [70]

Answer:

V = a * t = 9.8 m/s^2 * 2.3 s = 22.5 m/s   velocity after 2.3 s

S = 1/2 g t^2      since initial speed is zero

S = 1/2 * 9.8 m/s^2 * 5.29 s^2 = 25.9 m
