You have discovered a planet that is one-quarter the radius of Earth (Rp = 1/4R⊕) and one-half as massive (Mp = 1/2M⊕). How does

the gravity on the surface of this planet compare to the gravity on the surface of Earth (Fgp = XFg⊕)?

To solve this problem we will use the mathematical definition of the light years in metric terms, from there, through the kinematic equations of motion we will find the distance traveled as a function of the speed in proportion to the elapsed time. Therefore we have to

$1Ly =9.4605284*10^{15}m \rightarrow 'Ly'$ means Light Year

Then

$14.4Ly = 1.36231609*10^{17} m$

If we have that

$v= \frac{x}{t} \rightarrow t = \frac{x}{t}$

Where,

v = Velocity

x = Displacement

t = Time

We have that

$t = \frac{1.36231609*10^{17}}{0.96c} \rightarrow c$ = Speed of light

$t = \frac{1.36231609*10^{17}}{0.96(3*10^8)}$

$t= 454105363 s (\frac{1hour}{3600s})$

$t= 126140 hours(\frac{1day}{24hours})$

$t= 5255.85 days(\frac{1 year}{365days})$

$t = 14.399 years$

Therefore will take 14.399 years

An 67-kg jogger is heading due east at a speed of 2.3 m/s. A 70-kg jogger is heading 61 ° north of east at a speed of 1.3 m/s. F

ololo11 [35]

Answer

given,

mass of jogger = 67 kg

speed in east direction = 2.3 m/s

mass of jogger 2 = 70 Kg

speed = 1.3 m/s in 61 ° north of east.

jogger one

$P_1 = m_1 v_1 \hat{i}$

$P_1 = 67 \times 2.3\hat{i}$

$P_1 = 154.1 \hat{i}$

$P_2 = m_2 v_2 \hat{i} +m_2 v_2 \hat{j}$

$P_2 = 70\times v cos \theta \hat{i} +70\times v sin \theta \hat{j}$

$P_2 = 70\times 1.3 cos 61^0 \hat{i} +70\times 1.3 sin 61^0\hat{j}$

$P_2 = 44.12\hat{i} +79.59\hat{j}$

now

P = P₁ + P₂

$P = 198.22 \hat{i} +79.59 \hat{j}$

magnitude

$P = \sqrt{198.22^2 + 79.59^2}$

$P =213.60 kg.m/s$

$\theta = tan^{-1}\dfrac{79.59}{198.22}$

$\theta = 21.87$

the angle is $\theta = 21.87$ north of east

The brakes of a 125 kg sled are applied while it is moving at 8.1 m/s, which exerts a force of 261 N to slow the sled down. How

sammy [17]

Answer:

15.7 m

Explanation:

m = mass of the sled = 125 kg

v₀ = initial speed of the sled = 8.1 m/s

v = final speed of sled = 0 m/s

F = force applied by the brakes in opposite direction of motion = 261

d = stopping distance for the sled

Using work-change in kinetic energy theorem

- F d = (0.5) m (v² - v₀²)

- (261) d = (0.5) (125) (0² - 8.1²)

d = 15.7 m
