A 50kg meteorite moving at 1000 m/s strikes Earth. Assume the velocity is along the line joining Earth's center of mass and the

zysi [14]

As per the question, the mass of meteorite [ m]= 50 kg

The velocity of the meteorite [v] = 1000 m/s

When the meteorite falls on the ground, it will give whole of its kinetic energy to earth.

We are asked to calculate the gain in kinetic energy of earth.

The kinetic energy of meteorite is calculated as -

$Kinetic\ energy\ [K.E]\ =\frac{1}{2} mv^2$

$=\frac{1}{2}50kg*[1000\ m/s]^2$

$=\frac{1}{2}50* 10^{6}\ J$

$=25*10^6\ J$

Here, J stands for Joule which is the S.I unit of energy.

$Hence,\ the\ kinetic\ energy\ gained\ by\ earth\ is\ 25*10^6\ J$

A car travels across Texas m miles at the rate of t miles per hour. How many hours does the trip take??

Marianna [84]

Answer: The trip takes $\frac{m}{t}hours$

Explanation:

Velocity $V$ is the variation of the position of a body (distance traveled $d$ ) with time $T$ :

$V=\frac{d}{T}$

In this case, the car travels a distance $d=m miles$ at a velocity $V=t \frac{miles}{hour}$ and we need to find the time it takes the trip.

Isolating $T$ :

$T=\frac{d}{V}=\frac{m miles}{t \frac{miles}{hour}}$

Finally:

$T=\frac{m}{t}hours$
