When the rocket launched the astronauts aboard experienced an acceleration of 32 m/s^2. If one of the astronauts had a mass of 6

5 kg, what net force in newtons did the astronaut experience?

Answer:

The question is somewhat vague in that acceleration is not exactly defined:

Usually a = (v2 - v1) / t    which would imply that

a = 32 / g = 32 / 9.8 = 3.27   the acceleration due to change in speed of the rocket

One can also say that the astronaut experiences an acceleration of 9.8 m/s^2 just by being motionless on the surface of the earth.

Then a = (32 - 9.8) / 9.8 = 2.27 due to the acceleration of the rocket

If we assume the first condition then

F = 65 kg * 3.27 * 9.8 m/s^2 = 2083 N

The radius of a sphere is increasing at a rate of 4 mm/s. how fast is the volume increasing when the diameter is 40 mm?
marin [14]

Using <span>r </span> to represent the radius and <span>t </span> for time, you can write the first rate as:

<span><span><span><span>dr</span><span>dt</span></span>=4<span>mms</span></span> </span>

or

<span><span>r=r<span>(t)</span>=4t</span> </span>

The formula for a solid sphere's volume is:

<span><span>V=V<span>(r)</span>=<span>43</span>π<span>r3</span></span> </span>

When you take the derivative of both sides with respect to time...

<span><span><span><span>dV</span><span>dt</span></span>=<span>43</span>π<span>(3<span>r2</span>)</span><span>(<span><span>dr</span><span>dt</span></span>)</span></span> </span>

...remember the Chain Rule for implicit differentiation. The general format for this is:

<span><span><span><span><span>dV<span>(r)</span></span><span>dt</span></span>=<span><span>dV<span>(r)</span></span><span>dr<span>(t)</span></span></span>⋅<span><span>dr<span>(t)</span></span><span>dt</span></span></span> </span>with <span><span>V=V<span>(r)</span></span> </span> and <span><span>r=r<span>(t)</span></span> </span>.</span>

So, when you take the derivative of the volume, it is with respect to its variable <span>r </span> <span><span>(<span><span>dV<span>(r)</span></span><span>dr<span>(t)</span></span></span>)</span> </span>, but we want to do it with respect to <span>t </span> <span><span>(<span><span>dV<span>(r)</span></span><span>dt</span></span>)</span> </span>. Since <span><span>r=r<span>(t)</span></span> </span> and <span><span>r<span>(t)</span></span> </span> is implicitly a function of <span>t </span>, to make the equality work, you have to multiply by the derivative of the function <span><span>r<span>(t)</span></span> </span> with respect to <span>t </span> <span><span>(<span><span>dr<span>(t)</span></span><span>dt</span></span>)</span> </span>as well. That way, you're taking a derivative along a chain of functions, so to speak (<span><span>V→r→t</span> </span>).

Now what you can do is simply plug in what <span>r </span> is (note you were given diameter) and what <span><span><span>dr</span><span>dt</span></span> </span> is, because <span><span><span>dV</span><span>dt</span></span> </span> describes the rate of change of the volume over time, of a sphere.

<span><span><span><span><span>dV</span><span>dt</span></span>=<span>43</span>π<span>(3<span><span>(20mm)</span>2</span>)</span><span>(4<span>mms</span>)</span></span> </span><span><span>=6400π<span><span>mm3</span>s</span></span> </span></span>

Since time just increases, and the radius increases as a function of time, and the volume increases as a function of a constant times the radius cubed, the volume increases faster than the radius increases, so we can't just say the two rates are the same.

Consider a skateboarder who starts from rest at the top of ramp that is inclined at an angle of 18.0 ∘ to the horizontal.
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

v= u + at

v is final velocity , u is initial velocity . a is acceleration and t is time

Initial velocity u = 0 . Putting the given values in the equation

v = 0 + g sin 18 x 3.5

= 10.6 m /s

This is a two part question: What is the force of friction acting on a 100 kg steel slab at rest on a steel floor?
Crazy boy [7]
1) 0N... friction opposes the motion of an object, since the block is at rest there is no motion thus no friction

2) F=ma
= (5.5kg)(30m/s)
=165 N

Precipitation is greater over what and less over what?<br><br> A. Land, sea<br><br> B. Sea, land
Ksju [112]
I would say letter A to this because we need rain water for crops plants. Also we need it so that we can drink it. Its less great over sea because as it merge with the salt in the ocean it becomes less drinkable and less usable.
