Suppose the rocket in the Example was initially on a circular orbit around Earth with a period of 1.6 days. Hint (a) What is its
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

a

The orbital speed is v= 2.6*10^{3} m/s

b

The escape velocity of the rocket is  v_e= 3.72 *10^3 m/s

Explanation:

Generally angular velocity is mathematically represented as

            w = \frac{2 \pi}{T}

Where T is the period which is given as 1.6 days = 1.6 *24 *60*60 = 138240 sec

       Substituting the value

         w = \frac{2 \pi}{138240}

             = 4.54*10^ {-5} rad /sec

At the point when the rocket is on a circular orbit  

   The gravitational force =  centripetal force and this can be mathematically represented as

              \frac{GMm}{r^2} = mr w^2

Where  G is the universal gravitational constant with a value  G = 6.67*10^{-11}

            M is the mass of the earth with a constant value of M = 5.98*10^{24}kg

            r is the distance between earth and circular orbit where the rocke is found

               Making r the subject

                     r = \sqrt[3]{\frac{GM}{w^2} }

                        = \sqrt[3]{\frac{6.67*10^{-11} * 5.98*10^{24}}{(4.45*10^{-5})^2} }

                        = 5.78 *10^7 m

The orbital speed is represented mathematically as

                   v=wr

Substituting value

                  v= (5.78*10^7)(4.54*10^{-5})

                     v= 2.6*10^{3} m/s    

The escape velocity is mathematically represented as

                            v_e = \sqrt{\frac{2GM}{r} }

Substituting values

                             = \sqrt{\frac{2(6.67*10^{-11})(5.98*10^{24})}{5.78*10^7} }

                             v_e= 3.72 *10^3 m/s

If a sound wave travels 680 m in 2 seconds and has a frequency of 400 hz, what is the wavelength of the wave?
Kipish [7]

Answer: 0.85 meters (with and without sigfigs)

Explanation: To find the wavelength, you just have to switch around the equation for wave speed: v (wave speed) = λ (wavelength)*f (frequency) so λ (wavelength) = v (wave speed)/f (frequency). You don't have the wave speed but you can calculate it. Since wave speed is measured in meters/second or m/s, you just have to divide the amount of meters you were given by the amount of seconds. You will get 340 m/s. Next, you have to plug the values into the equation: λ (wavelength) = 340 m/s (wave speed)/400 Hz (frequency). The answer is 0.85 meters (seconds cancel) and has the correct number of significant figures.

A spaceship with a constant speed of 0. 800c relative to earth travels to a star that is 4. 30 light-years from earth. how much
Strike441 [17]

Main Answer:

Given  speed of spaceship v = 0.8c = 0.8 * 3 x 10^8 m/s

Speed of spaceship v = 2.4 x 10^8 m/s

Distance need to be travelled d = 4.3 light years

we know that 1 light year  = 9.461 x 10^15 m

Distance need to be travelled d = 4.3 x 9.461 x 10^15

d = 40.6823 x 10^15 m

Time taken for the trip would elapse on a clock on board the spaceship

t = distance/ velocity

t = 40.6823 x 10^15 / 2.4 x 10^8

t = 16.95 x 10^7 sec

t = 4.71 x 10^4 hours

Explanation:

What is light year?

Light year is defined as the distance travelled by the light in one year. In a year, light travels through 300000 km per sec in the interstellar space.
