A sports car accelerates from rest for 5 seconds reaching a velocity of 23.0 m/s.

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's velocity and time taken can be found by using the formula

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time taken

a is the acceleration

Since the body is from rest u = 0

From the question we have

$a = \frac{23 - 0}{5} = \frac{23}{5} \\$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

A man 2 meters tall walks at the rate of 2 meters per second toward a streetlight that's 5 meters above the ground. At what rate

GaryK [48]

Answer:

It changes at a rate of 4/3 meter per second

Explanation:

In the given figure below we have

$\Delta OBD\simeq \Delta ABC\\\\\therefore \frac{5}{X+Y}=\frac{2}{Y}\\\\$

Solving for Y given $X=2m/s$ we get

$\frac{5}{2+Y}=\frac{2}{Y}\\\\5Y=4+2Y\\\\Y=\frac{4}{3}m/s$

Space debris left from old satellites and their launchers is becoming a hazard to other satellites. (a) Calculate the speed of a

Pie

Answer:

Part a)

$v = 7407.1 m/s$

Part b)

$v_{rel} = 1.05 \times 10^4 m/s$

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that orbital velocity at certain height from the surface of Earth is given as

$v = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{R+h}}$

here we know that

$M = 5.98 \times 10^{24} kg$

$R = 6.37 \times 10^6 m$

$h = 900 km = 9.0 \times 10^5 m$

now we have

$v = \sqrt{\frac{(6.67 \times 10^{-11})(5.98 \times 10^{24})}{6.37 \times 10^6 + 9.0 \times 10^5}}$

$v = 7407.1 m/s$

Part b)

When a loose rivet is moving in same orbit but at 90 degree with the previous orbit path then in that case the relative speed of the rivet with respect to the satellite is given as

$v_{rel} = \sqrt{2} v$

$v_{rel} = 1.05 \times 10^4 m/s$
