The force needed to keep the space shuttle moving at constant speed is 0.

The given parameters;

  • <em>weight of the space shuttle, F = 750,000 N</em>
  • <em>constant speed of the space shuttle, v = 28,000 km/h</em>

The mass of the space shuttle is calculated as follows;

W = mg\\\\m = \frac{W}{g} \\\\m = \frac{750,000}{9.8} \\\\m = 76,530.61 \ kg

The force needed to keep the space shuttle moving at constant speed is calculated as follows;

F = ma

F = 76,530.61 \times a

where;

a is the acceleration of the space shuttle

At a constant speed, acceleration is zero.

F = 76,530.61 x 0

F = 0

Thus, the force needed to keep the space shuttle moving at constant speed is 0.

There are two ways to find energy. Energy=F*d=mv^2. We can use this relationship to find v:
Fd=0.5mv^{2} \\ 80*4=0.5*10v^{2} \\ 64=v^{2} \\ v=8 m/s

What is the difference between resilience and modulus of resilience
pshichka [43]
<span>Resilience is the amount of energy that can be put into a volume of material and still be stored elastically. ie When the energy goes away, the material regains its undeformed shape. The Mod of R is the amount that can be stored by a unit volume of that material. The Mod of R is heavily related to Youngs Modulus.</span>
