Imagine a landing craft approaching the surface of Callisto, one of Jupiter's moons. If the engine provides an upward force (thr

ust) of 3432 N, the craft descends at constant speed; if the engine provides only 2317 N, the craft accelerates downward at 0.39 m/s2. What is the weight of the landing craft in the vicinity of Callisto's surface?

Answer:

W = mg = 3432 N

Explanation:

The force applied by the engine, F = 3432 N (upward) the craft descends at constant speed.

If the engine provides only 2317 N, the craft accelerates downward at 0.39 m/s².

On applying the force of 3432 N, the ship descends at a constant velocity such that the net force acting on it equal to 0. So, the upward normal force is equal to the weight of the landing craft.

So, the weight of the landing craft in the vicinity of Callisto's surface is 3432 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

How does the period affects the centripetal force?
Anna71 [15]

Answer:According to the Equation (2), centripetal force is proportional to the square of the speed for an object of given mass M rotating in a given radius R.

Explanation:The Period T. The time T required for one complete revolution is called the period. For. constant speed. v = 2π r T holds.

WINSTONCH [101]

The conversion of CO2 into the three-carbon sugar G3p is the Calvin cycle's net reaction.

<h3 /><h3>What is Calvin Cycle?</h3>

Calvin cycle uses ATP and NADPH, which are created during the light reaction, to decrease atmospheric carbon dioxide in 3C sugar; Three steps can be distinguished in the Calvin Cycle reaction:

Carboxylation: A reaction that is catalyzed by RUBISCO, where RUBIP is the CO2 acceptor, results in the formation of 6 molecules of PGA (phosphoglycerate).

Here, there are 6 molecules with 18 carbons in PGA and 3 molecules with 3 carbons in CO2.

Reduction: One molecule of the output, glyceraldehyde 3 phosphate, is used to create sugar while the remaining five molecules go through regeneration.

Here, one glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate molecule with three carbon atoms is present.

Regeneration: From glyceraldehyde 3 phosphate, CO2 acceptor (RUBIP) is generated.

Here, 3 molecules of RUBIP and 5 molecules of dihydroxy acetone phosphate each have 15 carbons.

An Na ion has a charge of +1 and an O ion has a charge of –2. How many Na ions does one O ion need to balance charges
Aleonysh [2.5K]
Because Na⁺ ion lacks an electron and O²⁻ has two extra electrons extra, to balance the charge, we need 2 Na⁺ ions.
 
All ions, atoms and molecules want to get to the minimum energy state, and that state is when the ion, atom, or molecule is neutral, that's why all of them want to balance their charges.

A lacrosse ball that is thrown straight upwards reaches a maximum height of 4.5 m. At what initial velocity was it thrown? (note
shtirl [24]

Answer:

The initial velocity was 9.39 m/s

Explanation:

<em>Lets explain how to solve the problem</em>

The ball is thrown straight upward with initial velocity u

The ball reaches a maximum height of 4.5 m

At the maximum height velocity v = 0

The acceleration of gravity is -9.8 m/s²

We need to find the initial velocity

The best rule to find the initial velocity is <em>v² = u² + 2ah</em>, where v is

the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration of

gravity and h is the height

⇒ v = 0 , h = 4.5 m , a = -9.8 m/s²

⇒ 0 = u² + 2(-9.8)(4.5)

⇒ 0 = u² - 88.2

Add 88.2 to both sides

⇒ 88.2 = u²

Take square root for both sides

⇒ u = 9.39 m/s

<em>The initial velocity was 9.39 m/s</em>
