Answer:

a. 8.33 x 10 ⁻⁶ Pa

b. 8.19 x 10 ⁻¹¹ atm

c. 1.65 x 10 ⁻¹⁰ atm

d. 2.778 x 10 ⁻¹⁴ kg / m²

Explanation:

Provided Data:

a.

I = 2500 W / m², us = 3.0 x 10 ⁸ m /s

P rad = I / us

P rad  = 2500 W / m² / 3.0 x 10 ⁸ m/s

P rad = 8.33 x 10 ⁻⁶ Pa

b.

P rad = 8.33 x 10 ⁻⁶ Pa *[  9.8 x 10 ⁻⁶ atm / 1 Pa ]

P rad = 8.19 x 10 ⁻¹¹ atm

c.

P rad = 2 * I / us = ( 2 * 2500 w / m²) / [ 3.0 x 10 ⁸ m /s ]

P rad = 1.67 x 10 ⁻⁵ Pa

P₁ = 1.013 x 10 ⁵ Pa /atm

P rad = 1.67 x 10 ⁻⁵ Pa / 1.013 x 10 ⁵ Pa /atm = 1.65 x 10 ⁻¹⁰ atm

d.

P rad  = I / us

ΔP / Δt = I / C² = [ 2500 w / m² ] / ( 3.0 x 10 ⁸ m/s)²

ΔP / Δt = 2.778 x 10 ⁻¹⁴ kg / m²

An astronaut is standing on the surface of a planet that has a mass of 6.42×1023 kg and a radius of 3397 km. The astronaut fires
serg [2598]
The final calculated height is 22.2 km. By converting 3397 km to meters, we achieve 3397000m. Using the gravitational constant, we compute the gravitational acceleration on the planet in accordance with Newton's law of gravitation, where M and R represent the planet's mass and radius, respectively. As the bullet ascends to its peak height, its kinetic energy transitions to potential energy. We account for the bullet mass and its initial velocity of 406 m/s, simplifying both sides of the equation to ultimately express the height reached as 22.2 km.

Two projectiles are launched with the same initial speed from the same location, one at a 30° angle and the other at a 60° angle
Ostrovityanka [2208]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let us denote the launch angle as \theta _1=30^{\circ}.

\theta _2=60^{\circ}, \theta _1, and \theta _2 are complementary angles which means their ranges are identical.

H_{max}=\frac{u^2(\sin \theta )^2}{2g}

H_{30}=\frac{u^2(\sin 30)^2}{2g}

H_{30}=\frac{u^2}{8g}

Time of flight is indicated as =\frac{2u\sin \theta }{g}.

t_{30}=\frac{u}{g}

For \theta =60^{\circ}

H_{60}=\frac{u^2(\sin 60)^2}{2g}

H_{60}=\frac{3u^2}{8g}

t_{60}=\frac{2u\sin 60}{g}=\frac{\sqrt{3}u}{g}

H_{60}=3\times H_{30}

t_{60}=\sqrt{3}\times t_{30}

The flight of a kicked football follows the quadratic function f(x)=−0.02x2+2.2x+2, where f(x) is the vertical distance in feet
Keith_Richards [2268]
The ball covers a horizontal distance of 0.902 meters. The trajectory of a kicked football adheres to a quadratic equation expressed as: f(x), where f(x) indicates the vertical distance in feet, and x signifies how far the ball travels horizontally. To compute the distance the ball will advance before striking the ground, we set the condition f(x) = 0. Upon solving this quadratic equation, we find that the horizontal distance traveled by the ball is: x = -0.902 meters, leading us to conclude that it travels 0.902 meters across the field.

A rock is dropped from the top of a tall building. The rock's displacement in the last second before it hits the ground is 46 %
inna [2210]

The height measures 69.68 m

Explanation:

Given data

Before striking the ground =  46 % of the total distance

To establish

the height

Solution

We know here acceleration and displacement, which is

d = (0.5)gt²..............1

Here d is the distance, g is the acceleration, and t is time

So, when an object falls it will be

h = 4.9 t²....................2

For the first part of the inquiry

The falling objects account for

54 % of the total distance

0.54 h = 4.9 (t-1)²...................3

Thus,

Now we possess two equations with unknown variables

We can equate both equations

The first equation already solves for h

Substituting h in the second equation allows us to find t

0.54 × 4.9 t² = 4.9 (t-1)²  

t = 0.576 s and  3.771 s

We choose here 3.771 s since 0.576 s is negligible; the distance covered in the last second before it impacts the ground is 46 % of the entire fall.

Thus, selecting t = 3.771 s

Then h from equation 2

h = 4.9 t²

h = 4.9 (3.771)²

h =  69.68 m

Thus, the height is 69.68 m

A book rests on the shelf of a bookcase. The reaction force to the force of gravity acting on the book is 1. The force of the sh
serg [2598]

Answer:

1. The force applied by the shelf supporting the book.

Explanation:

The free body diagram for the book is represented as follows:

1 - The weight of the book acting downward

2 - The normal force exerted by the shelf upward on the book.

As the book remains stationary, these two forces balance each other, and in accordance with Newton's Third Law, the reactive force equivalent to gravity is opposite and equal to the weight of the book. This reaction force prevents the book from falling off the shelf.
