Answer:

Explanation:

From our investigation of what forces are like in a collision, we learned that when two

objects collide, a force is exerted on each object. The two forces are in opposite

directions but the same strength. This allowed us to infer that an equal strength force

was exerted on the space station and the pod, but in opposite directions.

As a result, the space station and the pod are moving in opposite directions. We need to

learn more about the effects of collisions on each object’s motion so we can report back

to Dr. Gonzales at the space agency.

You will use physical materials to gather data about

forces in a collision. You will also notice how objects

are affected by collisions. Students will use their

data to infer the force direction for objects in a

collision.

Based on the velocity change of each object,

what did you infer about the direction of forces

during a collision?

• We observed that the velocity of each object changed during a collision, so we can infer

that a force had to be exerted on each object. However, the motion of the objects

changed in different ways.

• The object that was moving forward slowed down, so I can infer that the force must have

pushed backward on this object.

• The other object started moving forward, so the force must have pushed forward on that

object. If one force was backward and one force was forward, then the forces pushed

the objects in opposite directions.

A 4000 kg satellite is placed 2.60 x 10^6 m above the surface of the Earth.

mash [69]

a) The acceleration of gravity is $4.96 m/s^2$

b) The critical velocity is 6668 m/s (24,006 km/h)

c) The period of the orbit is 8452 s

d) The satellite completes 10.2 orbits per day

e) The escape velocity of the satellite is 9430 m/s

f) The escape velocity of the rocket is 11,191 m/s

Explanation:

The acceleration of gravity for an object near a planet is given by

$g=\frac{GM}{(R+h)^2}$

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the mass of the planet

R is the radius of the planet

h is the height above the surface

In this problem,

$M=5.98\cdot 10^{24} kg$ (mass of the Earth)

$R=6.37\cdot 10^6 m$ (Earth's radius)

$h=2.60\cdot 10^6 m$ (altitude of the satellite)

Substituting,

$g=\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.98\cdot 10^{24}}{(6.37\cdot 10^6 + 2.60\cdot 10^6)^2}=4.96 m/s^2$

The critical velocity for a satellite orbiting around a planet is given by

$v=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{R+h}}$

where we have again:

$M=5.98\cdot 10^{24} kg$ (mass of the Earth)

$R=6.37\cdot 10^6 m$ (Earth's radius)

$h=2.60\cdot 10^6 m$ (altitude of the satellite)

Substituting,

$v=\sqrt{\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.98\cdot 10^{24}}{(6.37\cdot 10^6 + 2.60\cdot 10^6)}}=6668 m/s$

Converting into km/h,

$v=6668 m/s \cdot \frac{3600 s/h}{1000 m/km}=24,006 km/h$

The period of the orbit is given by the circumference of the orbit divided by the velocity:

$T=\frac{2\pi (R+h)}{v}$

where

$R=6.37\cdot 10^6 m$

$h=2.60\cdot 10^6 m$

v = 6668 m/s

Substituting,

$T=\frac{2\pi (6.37\cdot 10^6 + 2.60\cdot 10^6)}{6668}=8452 s$

One day consists of:

$t = 24 \frac{hours}{day} \cdot 60 \frac{min}{hours} \cdot 60 \frac{s}{min}=86400 s$

While the period of the orbit is

T = 8452 s

So, the number of orbits completed by the satellite in one day is

$n=\frac{t}{T}=\frac{86400}{8452}=10.2$

The escape velocity for an object in the gravitational field of a planet is given by

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R+h}}$

where here we have:

$M=5.98\cdot 10^{24} kg$

$R=6.37\cdot 10^6 m$

$h=2.60\cdot 10^6 m$

Substituting, we find

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.98\cdot 10^{24}}{(6.37\cdot 10^6 + 2.60\cdot 10^6)}}=9430 m/s$

We can apply again the formula to find the escape velocity for the rocket:

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R+h}}$

Where this time we have:

$M=5.98\cdot 10^{24} kg$

$R=6.37\cdot 10^6 m$

$h=0$ , because the rocket is located at the Earth's surface, so its altitude is zero.

And substituting,

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.98\cdot 10^{24}}{(6.37\cdot 10^6)}}=11,191 m/s$

Use this excerpt from the text to answer the question. "Some people insist the United States is more properly called a republic

Bond [772]

Political power is utilized in a roundabout way by chose authorities, not straightforwardly by the natives themselves. Oftentimes, legislators and numerous standard Americans allude to the United States as a majority rules system. Others locate this disturbing in light of the fact that, not at all like in a vote based system where nationals vote specifically on laws, in the United States, chose agents do – and, thusly, the U.S. is a republic.

The frequency of a physical pendulum comprising a nonuniform rod of mass 1.15 kg pivoted at one end is observed to be 0.658 Hz.

S_A_V [24]

Answer:

The rotational inertia of the pendulum around its pivot point is $0.280\,kg\cdot m^{2}$ .

Explanation:

The angular frequency of a physical pendulum is measured by the following expression:

$\omega = \sqrt{\frac{m\cdot g \cdot d}{I_{o}} }$

Where:

$\omega$ - Angular frequency, measured in radians per second.

$m$ - Mass of the physical pendulum, measured in kilograms.

$g$ - Gravitational constant, measured in meters per square second.

$d$ - Straight line distance between the center of mass and the pivot point of the pendulum, measured in meters.

$I_{O}$ - Moment of inertia with respect to pivot point, measured in $kg\cdot m^{2}$ .

In addition, frequency and angular frequency are both related by the following formula:

$\omega =2\pi\cdot f$

Where:

$f$ - Frequency, measured in hertz.

If $f = 0.658\,hz$ , then angular frequency of the physical pendulum is:

$\omega = 2\pi \cdot (0.658\,hz)$

$\omega = 4.134\,\frac{rad}{s}$

From the formula for the physical pendulum's angular frequency, the moment of inertia is therefore cleared:

$\omega^{2} = \frac{m\cdot g \cdot d}{I_{o}}$

$I_{o} = \frac{m\cdot g \cdot d}{\omega^{2}}$

Given that $m = 1.15\,kg$ , $g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ , $d = 0.425\,m$ and $\omega = 4.134\,\frac{rad}{s}$ , the moment of inertia associated with the physical pendulum is:
