Why is the escape speed for a spacecraft independent of the spacecraft's mass?

scoray [572]

In order to escape the gravitational pull of our planet, any object must have an escape velocity of 7 km/s or more, anything lower than that will be slowed down by the pull of gravity, and will eventually returned to the surface of our planet. It is independent of mass, any lighter or heavier object must attain the required escaped velocity to reach space.

A bullet is fired into the air at an angle of 45°. How far does it travel before it is 1,000 feet above the ground? (Assume that

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

It travels 1414 feets.

Explanation:

Let's take the length the bullet travels l as the hypotenuse of a right triangle and the height it reaches one of its sides. Since we got the angle α at which it was fired and the height h it reached, we can calculate l using the sin(α) function:

$sin(\alpha )=\frac{opposite side}{hypotenuse}\\sin(\alpha)=\frac{h}{l}\\l=\frac{h}{sin(\alpha)}$

Replacing:

$l=\frac{1000ft}{sin(\frac{\pi}{4})}$

Solving and roundin to the nearest foot:

$l=1414 ft$

A 60kg bicyclist (including the bicycle) is pedaling to the

Fittoniya [83]

a) 4 forces

b) 186 N

c) 246 N

Explanation:

a)

Let's count the forces acting on the bicylist:

1) Weight ( $W=mg$ ): this is the gravitational force exerted on the bicyclist by the Earth, which pulls the bicyclist towards the Earth's centre; so, this force acts downward (m = mass of the bicyclist, g = acceleration due to gravity)

2) Normal reaction (N): this is the reaction force exerted by the road on the bicyclist. This force acts vertically upward, and it balances the weight, so its magnitude is equal to the weight of the bicyclist, and its direction is opposite

3) Applied force ( $F_A$ ): this is the force exerted by the bicylicist to push the bike forward. Its direction is forward

4) Air drag ( $R$ ): this is the force exerted by the air on the bicyclist and resisting the motion of the bike; its direction is opposite to the motion of the bike, so it is in the backward direction

So, we have 4 forces in total.

b)

Here we can find the net force on the bicyclist by using Newton's second law of motion, which states that the net force acting on a body is equal to the product between the mass of the body and its acceleration:

$F_{net}=ma$
