We don't know Carter, and we don't know where he is or what
he's doing, so I'm taking a big chance speculating on an answer.
I'm going to say that if Carter is pretty much just standing there,
or, let's say, lying on the ground taking a nap, then the force of
the ground acting on him is precisely exactly equal to his weight.
Answer:
Period refers to the time for something to happen and is measured in seconds/cycle
Answer:
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
Answer:
a) x(t) = 10t + (2/3)*t^3
b) x*(0.1875) = 10.18 m
Explanation:
Note: The position of the horse is x = 2m. There is a typing error in the question. Otherwise, The solution to cubic equation holds a negative value of time t.
Given:
- v(t) = 10 + 2*t^2 (radar gun)
- x*(t) = 10 + 5t^2 + 3t^3 (our coordinate)
Find:
-The position x of horse as a function of time t in radar system.
-The position of the horse at x = 2m in our coordinate system
Solution:
- The position of horse according to radar gun:
v(t) = dx / dt = 10 + 2*t^2
- Separate variables:
dx = (10 + 2*t^2).dt
- Integrate over interval x = 0 @ t= 0
x(t) = 10t + (2/3)*t^3
- time @ x = 2 :
2 = 10t + (2/3)*t^3
0 = 10t + (2/3)*t^3 + 2
- solve for t:
t = 0.1875 s
- Evaluate x* at t = 0.1875 s
x*(0.1875) = 10 + 5(0.1875)^2 + 3(0.1875)^3
x*(0.1875) = 10.18 m
