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.

Help? I don't know how to do this.
aliya0001 [1]

Use the definition of acceleration:

Acceleration = (change of velocity) divided by (time for the change)

The graph says:

Change of velocity = -6 m/s

Time for the change = 3 sec

So Acceleration = (-6m/s) / (3 s)

That's -6/3 m/s•s

or

-2 m/s^2

If the distance between us and a star is doubled, with everything else remaining the same, the luminosity Group of answer choice
Savatey [412]

Answer:

remains the same, but the apparent brightness is decreased by a factor of four.

Explanation:

A star is a giant astronomical or celestial object that is comprised of a luminous sphere of plasma, binded together by its own gravitational force.

It is typically made up of two (2) main hot gas, Hydrogen (H) and Helium (He).

The luminosity of a star refers to the total amount of light radiated by the star per second and it is measured in watts (w).

The apparent brightness of a star is a measure of the rate at which radiated energy from a star reaches an observer on Earth per square meter per second.

The apparent brightness of a star is measured in watts per square meter.

If the distance between us (humans) and a star is doubled, with everything else remaining the same, the luminosity remains the same, but the apparent brightness is decreased by a factor of four (4).

Some of the examples of stars are;

- Canopus.

- Sun (closest to the Earth)

- Betelgeuse.

- Antares.

- Vega.
