Open Question

T ─ (1500 kg) (9.8 m/s²) = (1500 kg) (1.0 m/s²) P = T (2.0 m/s) (a) Write a realistic problem for which this is the correct equation(s).

Open Question

A particle moving on the x-axis experiences a force given by Fx = qx², where q is a constant. How much work is done on the particle as it moves from x=0 to x=d?

Open Question

T ─ (1500 kg) (9.8 m/s²) = (1500 kg) (1.0 m/s²) P = T (2.0 m/s) (c) Finish the solution of the problem.

Open Question

The gravitational attraction between two objects with massesmᴀ and mᴃ, separated by distance 𝓍, is F = Gmᴀmᴃ/𝓍², where Gis the gravitational constant.(b) If one mass is much greater than the other, the larger mass stays essentially at rest while the smaller mass moves toward it. Suppose a 1.5 x 10¹³ kg comet is passing the orbit of Mars, heading straight for the sun at a speed of 3.5 x 10⁴ m/s. What will its speed be when it crosses the orbit of Mercury? Astronomical data are given in the tables at the back of the book, and G = 6.67 x 10 ¯¹¹ Nm²/kg² ..

Open Question

CALC An object moving in the xy-plane is subjected to the force F(arrow on top) =(2xy î+x² ĵ) N, where x and y are in m.a. The particle moves from the origin to the point with coordinates (a, b) by moving first along the x -axis to (a, 0) , then parallel to the y -axis. How much work does the force do?

Open Question

(II) Two Earth satellites, A and B, each of mass m = 950 kg , are launched into circular orbits around the Earth’s center. Satellite A orbits at an altitude of 4800 km, and satellite B orbits at an altitude of 12,600 km.

(b) What are the kinetic energies of the two satellites?

Multiple Choice

About 50,000 years ago, a meteor crashed into the earth near present-day Flagstaff, Arizona. Some estimates suggest this meteor had a mass of about 1.4×10⁸ kg and released 1×10¹⁶ J of energy when it slammed into the Earth. Calculate the approximate speed of this meteor before impact.

Multiple Choice
