A new planet has been discovered and given the name Planet X . The mass of Planet X is estimated to be one-half that of Earth, a

Answer:

    vₐ = v_c  ( \ 1 + \frac{1}{2} ( \frac{\Delta M}{M} - \frac{\Delta R}{R}) \ )

Explanation:

To calculate the escape velocity let's use the conservation of energy

starting point. On the surface of the planet

          Em₀ = K + U = ½ m v_c² - G Mm / R

final point. At a very distant point

         Em_f = U = - G Mm / R₂

energy is conserved

           Em₀ = Em_f

           ½ m v_c² - G Mm / R = - G Mm / R₂

           v_c² = 2 G M (1 /R -  1 /R₂)

if we consider the speed so that it reaches an infinite position R₂ = ∞

           v_c = \sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R} }

now indicates that the mass and radius of the planet changes slightly

            M ’= M + ΔM = M ( 1+ \frac{\Delta M}{M} )

            R ’= R + ΔR = R ( 1 + \frac{\Delta R}{R} )

we substitute

           vₐ = \sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R} } \  \frac{\sqrt{1+ \frac{\Delta M}{M} } }{ \sqrt{1+ \frac{ \Delta R}{R} } }

         

let's use a serial expansion

           √(1 ±x) = 1 ± ½ x +…

we substitute

         vₐ = v_ c ( (1 + \frac{1}{2}  \frac{\Delta M}{M} )  \ ( 1 - \frac{1}{2}  \frac{\Delta R}{R} ))

we make the product and keep the terms linear

        vₐ = v_c  ( \ 1 + \frac{1}{2} ( \frac{\Delta M}{M} - \frac{\Delta R}{R}) \ )

Si pudieras viajar a la Luna:
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

i) Distancia, ii) La cinta métrica es impracticable.

Explanation:

i) El concepto físico que se construye únicamente del punto de salida y el punto de llegada a la Luna es el concepto de desplazamiento, definido como la distancia en línea recta de un punto en el espacio con respecto a un punto de referencia (la Tierra en este caso).

La distancia puede involucrar trayectorias curvilíneas entre los puntos mencionados.

ii) Por último, el uso de una cinta métrica es impracticable debido a la cantidad de material a utilizar y los efectos gravitacionales, electromagnéticos y mecánicos que inducen a una deflexión o una ruptura de esa cinta debido a la magnitud de la distancia entre las superficies del planeta y el satélite, respectivamente.

En este caso, es mejor utilizar la medición con tecnología láser, basadas en el fenómeno del electromagnetismo.

While doing a lab, a student found the density of a piece of pure aluminum to be 2.85 g/cm3. The accepted value for the density
bezimeni [28]
The equation for percent error is

% Error = 100*|Experimental-Theoretical|/Theoretical

Our experimental is 2.85g/cm^3 and the accepted is 2.7g/cm^3

Thus our % Error = 5.555%
