Answer:

10 seconds

Explanation:

We have the equation V = at (speed = acceleration x time)

We want to find the time, so can rearrange to T = V/a (time = speed / acceleration).

From the question, we know V is 5 and a is 0.5.

Now we can substitute that into our equation: 5/0.5 = 10.

So the time is 10 seconds.

Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions :)

Suppose a small planet is discovered that is 16 times as far from the Sun as the Earth's distance is from the Sun. Use Kepler's

mamaluj [8]

Answer:

23376 days

Explanation:

The problem can be solved using Kepler's third law of planetary motion which states that the square of the period T of a planet round the sun is directly proportional to the cube of its mean distance R from the sun.

$T^2\alpha R^3\\T^2=kR^3.......................(1)$

where k is a constant.

From equation (1) we can deduce that the ratio of the square of the period of a planet to the cube of its mean distance from the sun is a constant.

$\frac{T^2}{R^3}=k.......................(2)$

Let the orbital period of the earth be $T_e$ and its mean distance of from the sun be $R_e$ .

Also let the orbital period of the planet be $T_p$ and its mean distance from the sun be $R_p$ .

Equation (2) therefore implies the following;

$\frac{T_e^2}{R_e^3}=\frac{T_p^2}{R_p^3}....................(3)$

We make the period of the planet $T_p$ the subject of formula as follows;

$T_p^2=\frac{T_e^2R_p^3}{R_e^3}\\T_p=\sqrt{\frac{T_e^2R_p^3}{R_e^3}\\}................(4)$

But recall that from the problem stated, the mean distance of the planet from the sun is 16 times that of the earth, so therefore

$R_p=16R_e...............(5)$

Substituting equation (5) into (4), we obtain the following;

$T_p=\sqrt{\frac{T_e^2(16R_e)^3}{(R_e^3}\\}\\T_p=\sqrt{\frac{T_e^24096R_e^3}{R_e^3}\\}$

$R_e^3$ cancels out and we are left with the following;

$T_p=\sqrt{4096T_e^2}\\T_p=64T_e..............(6)$

Recall that the orbital period of the earth is about 365.25 days, hence;

$T_p=64*365.25\\T_p=23376days$

The mass of the particles that a river can transport is proportional to the sixth power of the speed of the river. A certain riv

kow [346]

Answer:

1.122 m/s

Explanation:

So usually a river with a speed of 1 meters per second can transport particle that weighs:

$1^6 = 1 kg$

If the particle is twice as massive as usual, then its weights would be 1 * 2 = 2kg

This means the river must be flowing at a speed of

$2^{\frac{1}{6}} = 1.122 m/s$

Distance travelled can be found from the

meriva

Answer:

Explanation:

This is because distance traveled (i.e. displacement) is the integral of the velocity function, and velocity is the first derivative of the displacement function. To put this in perspective, the area bounded by a curve can be found by taking the integral of the equation of the curve, taking values on the x-axis as limits.

A 75Kg man jumps from a window 1.0m above the sidewalk. If the man falls with his knees and ankles locked, the only cushion for

liq [111]

Answer:

150153.06122 N

Explanation:

m = Mass of person = 75 kg

h = Height of fall = 1 m

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

F = Force

s = Displacement = 0.49 cm

Potential energy is given by

$P=mgh\\\Rightarrow P=75\times 9.81\times 1\\\Rightarrow P=735.75\ J$

Work is given by

$W=Fs\\\Rightarrow F=\frac{W}{s}\\\Rightarrow F=\frac{735.75}{0.0049}\\\Rightarrow F=150153.06122\ N$

The average force exerted is 150153.06122 N
