There are other forces at work here nevertheless we will imagine
it is just a conservation of momentum exercise. Also the given mass of the
astronaut is light astronaut.
The solution for this problem is using the formula: m1V1=m2V2 but
we need to get V1:
V1= (m2/m1) V2
V1= (10/63) 12 = 1.9 m/s will be the final speed of the astronaut after
throwing the tank.
Answer:
No, the volume don't affect the potential energy.
Explanation:
The volume does not affect the potential energy, as this energy depends on the mass and elevation of the body relative to the reference point. This analysis can be easily seen in the equation expressing potential energy
![E_{p} =m*g*h\\where:\\m=mass[kg]\\g=gravity[m/^2]\\h=elevation[m]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E_%7Bp%7D%20%3Dm%2Ag%2Ah%5C%5Cwhere%3A%5C%5Cm%3Dmass%5Bkg%5D%5C%5Cg%3Dgravity%5Bm%2F%5E2%5D%5C%5Ch%3Delevation%5Bm%5D)
A pedestal rock, also known as a rock pedestal or mushroom rock, is not a true balancing rock, but is a single continuous rock form with a very small base leading up to a much larger crown. Some of these formations are called balancing rocks because of their appearance. The undercut base was attributed for many years to simple wind abrasion, but is now believed to result from a combination of wind and enhanced chemical weathering at the base where moisture would be retained longest. Some pedestal rocks sitting on taller spire formations are known as hoodoos. I think this is the answer if I’m wrong I’m very sorry
As per Bernuolli's Theorem total energy per unit mass is given as
now from above equation
now by above equation
Part B)
Now energy per unit weight
Answer:
Explanation:We should know that weight = mass * gravity.
That is weight equals mass times gravity.
Gravity is a force of attraction between any two bodies in the universe. It is directly proportional to product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
Gravity is generally measured in terms of acceleration due to gravity, denoted as g. For Earth it is, 9.8 m/s². And for moon, it is about 1.62 m/s².
On Earth, your weight is 70 kg = W
W = mass x 9.8
70 = mass x 9.8
Your mass is 70/ 9.8
i.e approximately 7.14
Weight at the Moon, W' = 7.14 x 1.62
Hence, your weight on the surface of the moon is just 11.56 kg.
Congratulations, you've lost about 58.14 kilograms without any hard exercise. And you're as light as a Sweedish Vallhund! Cheers!
