scoray [572]

Answer:

$h=25.52\times10^6 m$

Explanation:

Initial speed, v = 10 x 10^3 m/s

Mass of the earth, M = 6 x 10^24 kg

Radius of the earth, R = 6.4 x 10^6 m

Maximum from the surface of earth, h = ?

Let m = Mass of the projectile

Solution:

Potential energy at maximum height = ( Potential + Kinetic energy ) at the surface

$-G M m / ( R + h )=- G M m / R + (1/2) m v^2$

$- G M / ( R + h ) = - G M / R + (1/2) v^2$

$-2\times G M / ( R + h ) = ( - 2 G M / R ) + v^2$

$-2\times6.67\times10^{-11}\times6\times10^{24}/ ( R + h )$

= $( (- 2\times 6.67\times10^{-11}\times6\times10^{24}) /(6.4\times10^6)} +10000^2$

= $-2.50625\times10^7 J$

$=- 8\times10^{14} / ( R + h )=-2.50625\times 10^7$

$R+h=31.92\times10^{6}$

$h=31.92\times10^{6}-6.4\times10^6$

$h=25.52\times10^6 m$

Tresset [83]

Answer:

Given:

Fundamental frequency: 470Hz

T1:310k,T2:315k

Calculating velocity

Recall v=(331m/s)✓[T1/273k)

V=331✓(310/273)

V1=331*(1.0656)=352.72m/s

V2=331✓(315/273)=355.5m/s

Fundamental frequency=4L

F2=F1(V2/V1)

F2=470(355.5/352.72)=474.4Hz

Beat=[F2-F1]=474.4-470=4.4Hz

Whats the difference between speed and velocity of an object

ss7ja [257]

The difference between speed and velocity is that the speed is a scalar quantity which means that you can say that this object has a speed of x m/s but you don't have to define its direction
while the velocity is a vector quantity which means that you have to express the velocity by which it moves in x,y and z directions and its norm is the speed

Which of the following is most likely not a case of uniform circular motion

Ivan

Answer:

Motion of a racing car on a circular track

Explanation:

Uniform circular motion means the motion of the object is in a circle with a CONSTANT SPEED.

The racing car will accelerate during its motion. Hence, it is not a uniform circular motion.
