How is gravity simulated on the hermes spacecraft?

Physics
1 answer:
gulaghasi [49]3 years ago
3 0

Hermes has a rotating wheel, or centrifuge, to provide artificial gravity for the crew. Spaceships in “2001: A Space Odyssey” and “Mission to Mars” were similarly equipped. Although it is not shown in the film, the astronauts would have used a Mars descent vehicle (MDV) to get down from Hermes to the surface.

A climber using bottled oxygen accidentally drops the oxygen bottle from an altitude of 4500 m. If the bottle fell straight down
Trava [24]

Answer:

v= 300 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

altitude ,h= 4500 m

The mass ,m = 3 kg

Lets take acceleration due to gravity , g= 10 m/s²

The speed before impact at sea  level =  v

Initial speed ,u = 0 m/s

We know that

v²=u²+2 g h

v=final speed

u=initial speed

h=height

Now by putting the values in the above equation

v² = 0²+ 2 x 10 x 4500

v²=90000

v= 300 m/s

Therefore the speed at sea level will be 300 m/s.

Why are solar winds potentially fatal for organisms living on earth?
Amiraneli [1.4K]
Solar winds contain high levels of radiation which could lead to various health related complications in living organisms on Earth. These complications include and are not limited to radiation sickness, chromosomal damage, and cancer. However, solar winds are blocked by the Earth's magnetic field, only posing problems to our telecommunications.

A 1056-hertz tuning fork is struck at the same time as a note on the piano and you hear 2 beats/second. You tighten the piano st
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

The frequency of the piano string is <em>1059 Hz</em>.

Explanation:

The frequency beat (fb), 2 beats/second, is the absolute difference between the frequency of the tuning fork (1056 Hz) and the frequency of the piano string.

As the piano string gets tightened, the frequency beat becomes 3 beats/second.

Therefore,

fb = fb = fpiano - ftuning fork\\ 3 Hz=fpiano-1056Hz\\ fpiano=1056Hz+3Hz\\ fpiano=1059Hz
