Answer:

The value is  v  =  2.3359 *10^{4} \ m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The  initial speed is u =  2.05 *10^{4} \  m/s

 Generally the total energy possessed by the space probe when on earth is mathematically represented as

             T__{E}} =  KE__{i}} +  KE__{e}}

Here  KE_i is the kinetic energy of the space probe due to its initial speed which is mathematically represented as

          KE_i =   \frac{1}{2}  *  m  *  u^2

=>       KE_i =   \frac{1}{2}  *  m  *  (2.05 *10^{4})^2

=>       KE_i =  2.101 *10^{8} \ \ m \ \ J

And  KE_e is the kinetic energy that the space probe requires to escape the Earth's gravitational pull , this is mathematically represented as

       KE_e =  \frac{1}{2}  *  m *  v_e^2

Here v_e is the escape velocity from earth which has a value v_e =  11.2 *10^{3} \  m/s

=>    KE_e =  \frac{1}{2}  *  m *  (11.3 *10^{3})^2

=>    KE_e =  6.272 *10^{7} \  \  m  \ \   J

Generally given that at a position that is very far from the earth that the is Zero, the kinetic energy at that position is mathematically represented as

        KE_p =  \frac{1}{2}  *  m *  v^2

Generally from the law energy conservation we have that

        T__{E}} =  KE_p

So

       2.101 *10^{8}  m  +  6.272 *10^{7}  m  =   \frac{1}{2}  *  m *  v^2

=>     5.4564 *10^{8} =   v^2

=>     v =  \sqrt{5.4564 *10^{8}}

=>     v  =  2.3359 *10^{4} \ m/s

The sport with the fastest moving ball is jai alai, where measured speeds can be 286 km/h. If a professional jai alai player fac
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

d= 794.4 cmExplanation:

Given that

Speed ,V= 286 km/h

=286\times \dfrac{1000}{3600}\ m/s

V=79.44 m/s

Given that time ,t= 100 ms

t= 0.1 s

We know that ( if acceleration is zero)

Distance = Speed x time

d= V t

Now by putting the values in the above equation

d = 79.44 x 0.1 m

d= 7.944 m

We know that 1 m = 100 cm

d= 794.4 cm

A circular loop carrying a current of 1.6 A is oriented in a magnetic field of 0.30 T. The loop has an area of 0.14 m 2 and is m
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

The torque on the loop is 2.4 \times 10^{-2} Nm

Explanation:

Given:

Current I = 1.6 A

Magnetic field B = 0.30 T

Area of loop A = 0.14 m^{2}

Angle between magnetic field and area vector \theta = 21°

Form the formula of  torque in case of magnetic field,

 г = MB \sin \theta

Where M = magnetic moment

  M = IA

 г = IAB \sin 21

 г = 1.6 \times 0.30 \times 0.14 \times 0.3583

 г =2.4 \times 10^{-2} Nm

Therefore, the torque on the loop is 2.4 \times 10^{-2} Nm
