A space probe is traveling in outer space with a momentum that has a magnitude of 4.96 x 10 kg.m/s. A retrorocket is fired to slow down the probe. It applies a force to the probe that has a magnitude of 1.93 x 10 N and a direction opposite to the probe's motion. It fires for a period of 10.7 s. Determine the momentum of the probe after the retrorocket ceases to fire. A 48.0-kg skater is standing at rest...
A rocket in outer space has a payload of 5055.6 kg and 1.542 . 105 kg of fuel. The rocket can expel propellant at a speed of 5.580 km/s. Assume that the rocket starts from rest, accelerates to its final velocity, and then begins its trip. How long will it take the rocket to travel a distance of 3.82. 103 km (approximately the distance between Earth and Moon)? Question A fire hose 4.54 cm in diameter is capable of spraying...
Optimizing a trajectory in Python Callista "Cherry Bomb" Davidson is a world-famous stunt woman, and she is trying to achieve the long distance world record human cannonball. She needs your help, though, because she has no idea what angle is best to aim her cannon. You will need to simulate firing the cannon at all integer angles from 1 to 90 inclusive. Her cannon will shoot her at a velocity of 70ms70ms at a starting height of 5m5m. We will...
After a space station is constructed, it is spun up from rest,
using rockets attached tangentially to the outside hull, in order
to simulate earth gravity for the occupants inside, shown in the
figure. We can model the station as a hoop that rotates around its
axis, and ignore the rest of the structure for the moment of
inertia.
The mass of the station is m = 50,000 kg, the outer
radius is r = 100 m.
a) The two...
answer all please
1 If a 71-kg astronaut at rest in space throws a ball with mass 0.61 kg at a speed of 12 mph. What happens to the astronaut as a result? 4 A moving ball collides elastically with another ball that is twice as heavy and is initially at rest. What happens to the lighter ball as a result of the collision? (a) She picks up some of the movement of the ball, causing her to move forward....
ECE Review Worksheet 1 AP Physics Mr. Marrash 1. A space traveler weighs 980 N on Earth. What will the traveler weight on another planet whose radius is 3 times that of the Earth and whose mass is also 9 times that of the Earth. Do not use any numerical values of the universal gravitational constant G, the mass of Earth, or the radius of Earth to get your answer. 2. Two skaters, a man and a woman, are standing...
3. A merry-go-round (uniform disk) of mass M = 125 kg and radius R = 1.5 m is rotating initially wi = 12 rad/s. A person (we'll call the person a thin uniform rod) of mass m = 65 kg and height h= R initially stands over the rotation axis. The person decides to lie down with feet at the center and head at the outer edge (see figure). Since the person is a "thin rod', we can ignore the...
A child pushes her friend (m = 25 kg) located at a radius r = 1.5 m on a merry-go-round (rmgr = 2.0 m, Imgr = 1000 kg*m2) with a constant force F = 90 N applied tangentially to the edge of the merry-go-round (i.e., the force is perpendicular to the radius). The merry-go-round resists spinning with a frictional force of f = 10 N acting at a radius of 1 m and a frictional torque τ = 15 N*m...
QUESTION 5 A figure skater is spinning with an angular velocity of Il rad/s. She then comes to a stop over a brief period of time. During this time, her angular displacement is 5.9 rad. Determine her average angular acceleration, in SI units, with 3 or more significant figures QUESTION 6 Suppose you exert a force of 171 N tangential to a 0.26 m radius 83 kg grindstone (a solid disk). What is the angular acceleration if there is an...
1. John (who is 95 kg) drives his car over an absurdly large half-circle speedbump with a radius of 5 meters. Given that his normal weight is 930 N and his apparent weight at the top of the speed-bump was 246 N, how fast did he drive over the speed bump? 2. When working in circular motion problems, what do we define as always being the positive direction? 3. When in circular motion, the net force points in what direction?...
