There is strong evidence that Europa, a satellite of Jupiter, has a liquid ocean beneath its icy surface. Many scientists think

dangina [55]

Answer:

4.44 rpm

Explanation:

$\omega$ = Angular speed

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²

r = Radius of Europa = $\frac{3138000}{2}\ m$

R = Radius of arm = 6 m

The acceleration due to gravity is given by

$g=\frac{GM}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow g=\frac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 4.8\times 10^{22}}{\left(\frac{3138000}{2}\right)^2}\\\Rightarrow g=1.3\ m/s^2$

Here the centripetal acceleration of the arm and acceleration due to gravity are equal

$a_c=\omega^2R$

$a_c=g\\\Rightarrow \omega^2R=1.3\\\Rightarrow \omega^2\times 6=1.3\\\Rightarrow \omega=\sqrt{\frac{1.3}{6}}\\\Rightarrow \omega=0.46547\ rad/s$

Converting to rpm

$1\ rad/s=\frac{60}{2\pi}\ rpm$

$0.46547\ rad/s=0.46547\times \frac{60}{2\pi}\ rpm=4.44\ rpm$

The angular speed of the arm is 4.44 rpm

A skier leaves the horizontal end of a ramp with a velocity of 25.0 m/s and lands 70.0 m from the base of the ramp. How high is

Valentin [98]

Answer:

Explanation:

<u>Horizontal Motion </u>

When an object is thrown horizontally with an initial speed v and from a height h, it follows a curved path ruled by gravity.

The maximum horizontal distance traveled by the object can be calculated as follows:

$\displaystyle d=v\cdot\sqrt{\frac {2h}{g}}$

If the maximum horizontal distance is known, we can solve the above equation for h:

$\displaystyle h=\frac {d^2g}{2v^2}$

The skier initiates the horizontal motion at v=25 m/s and lands at a distance d=70 m from the base of the ramp. The height is now calculated:

$\displaystyle h=\frac {70^2\cdot 9.8}{2\cdot 25^2}$

$\displaystyle h=\frac {4900\cdot 9.8}{2\cdot 625}$

h= 38.416 m

The end of the ramp is 38.416 m high

Answer:

The speed of light changes as it moves between media. This causes refraction. Angles of refraction can be calculated using known speeds or wavelengths. Beyond the critical angle, light is reflected.

A 30.0 g mass of iron at 24.5°C is heated to 45.0°C. The theoretical specific

diamong [38]

Answer:

276.135 J

Explanation:

Given that:

mass of Fe = 30.0 g

initial temperature = 24.5°C

final temperature = 45.0°C

specific heat of Fe = 0.449 J/g°C

We can determine the thermal energy added by using the formula;

Q = mcΔT

Q = 30.0g × 0.449 J/g°C × (45.0 - 24.5)°C

Q = 276.135 J
