Scientists have concluded that Earth is at risk of future impacts with meteoroids. What are some criteria that engineers consider when they try to design technology to detect meteoroids and prevent collisions?
Science

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:
Explain step by step
Explanation:
Collisions with asteroids, comets and other stuff from space have been responsible for huge landmarks in our planet’s history: global shifts in climate, the creation of our moon, the reshuffling of our deepest geology, and the extinction of species.

Asteroid threats pop up in the news every now and then, but the buzz tends to fizzle away as the projectiles pass us by. Other times, as with the 2013 Chelyabinsk meteor in Russia, we don’t know they’re here until they’re here.
Perhaps most useful to remember is that when near-Earth objects (including asteroids, comets and meteoroids) enter the atmosphere, they’re called meteors; and if there’s anything left when they hit the ground, the resulting object is called a meteorite. We tend to focus on asteroids when talking about potential collisions, because they’re more likely to hit us than other stuff like comets, but still big enough to pose a threat.
Answer 2

By using optical and radio telescopes, the meteoroids are characterized and their shape, rotation and physical composition are determined.

Scientists have considered some criteria to detect the meteoroids and prevent collisions so that earth is protected from their impact. This includes finding the position and size of the meteoroids  and so the orbit of the earth could be changed and thus there is possibility for preventing collision.

By using optical and radio telescopes, the meteoroids are characterized and their shape, rotation and physical composition are determined. With the early recognition of the meteoroid movement and their position, the evacuation of people from the particular areas of possible impact can be done.

How long is the ball in the air?

Answers

Answer:

t = 0.3 seconds

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial velocity of a ball, u = 3 m/s

Final velocity of the ball, v = 6 m/s

We need to find the time for which the ball is in the air. As the ball was directed upwards, it would mean that the acceleration of the ball is -g or -9.8 m/s².

Using the first equation of motion to find the time. So,

v=u+at

or

v=u-gt

[tex]t=\dfrac{v-u}{-g}\\\\t=\dfrac{6-3}{-9.8}\\\\t=-0.3\ s[/tex]

or

t = 0.3 seconds

So, the ball is in the air for 0.3 seconds.

Answer: t= 0.92 s

Explanation: the formula you use it’s v=vinitial + at and you rearrange it to make (t= vfinal - vinitial /a) using this you get 0.92s

g

is the gravitational acceleration

On Earth,

Can you tell what the object's weight will be on another planet, such as Mars?

Answer: 34 kilograms (approximate)

==================================

Work Shown:

F = m*g

330 newtons = (m kg)*(9.8 m/s^2)

330 = m*9.8

330/9.8 = m

m = 33.673469387755

m = 34 kilograms

I'm rounding to 2 significant figures because 330 has 2 sig figs and 9.8 has 2 sig figs. When dividing we pick the smaller of the sig fig count to determine how many sig figs to round to.

a 5.00 kg mass is at the origin. a 7.00 kg mass is located at x = 0.600 m, and a 4.00 kg mass is at x = 0.900 m. What is the net gravitational force on the 5.00 kg mass?

Answers

Answer:

Given,

A 5 kg mass is at the origin. A 7 kg mass is located at x = 0.6 m and a 4 kg mass is at x = 0.9 m.

To find,

the net gravitational force on the 5 kg mass.

we know, from Newton's gravitational law, two massive bodies attract each other by a force , F = Gm₁m₂/r²

so, 7 kg mass attracts 5kg mass by the force, F₁ = G(7kg)(5kg)/(0.6)²

= 35G/0.36 = 97.22G

similarly, 4kg mass attracts 5kg mass by the force, F₂ = G(4kg)(5kg)/(0.9)²

= 20G/0.81 = 24.69G

net gravitational force = F₁ + F₂

= 97.22G + 24.69G

= 121.91G

we know, G = 6.67 × 10¯¹¹ Nm²/Kg²

F = 121.91 × 6.67 × 10¯¹¹

= 813.1397 × 10¯¹¹ N

= 8.131397 × 10^-9 N ≈ 8.13 × 10^-9 N

Therefore net gravitational force acting on mass 5kg is 8.13 × 10^-9 N

A room measures 3 meter wide, 4 meters long, and 2.5 meters high. a. What is the surface area of the room in square meters (including the ceiling and the floor)? b. If a certain paint covers 25 square meters per gallon, how many gallons will it take to paint the walls and ceiling, but not the floor?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The total surface area of the room is expressed as;

TSA = 2(LW+LH+WH)

L is the length

W is the width.

H is the height

Given

L = 4m

W = 3m

H = 2.5m

.TSA = 2{4(3)+3(2.5)+4(2.5)}

TSA = 2(12+7.5+10)

TSA = 2(29.5

TSA = 59m²

TSA (without the floor) = 2(3(2.5)+4(2.5))

TSA = 2(7.5+10)

TSA = 2(17.5)

TSA = 35m²

If a certain part covers 25 square meters per gallon, the amount of gallon needed will be 35m²/25m²

= 1.4gallons

Answers

Answer:

181276.802 m

Explanation:

The computation of the horizontal range of the shell is shown below:

As we know that

range = u × usin2θ ÷ g

where,

u = 1600 m/s

θ = 68

g=9.81

Now  

Put these values to the above formula

So, the value of the horizontal range of the shell is

R = 181276.802 m

=  181276.802 m

We simply applied the above formula and the same is to be considered

Two observers times the motion of a car from one place to another. The first observer's clock read 262 seconds at the start and 375 seconds at the end of the car's motion. The second observer's clock read -86 seconds at the start. What did it read at the end?

Answers

Answer:

The time of the second observer at the end of the car motion is 27 s

Explanation:

Initial time of the first observer, t₁ = 262 s

final time of the first observer, t₂ = 375 s

The time of the car motion, t = t₂ - t₁

t = 375 s - 262 s

t = 113 s

Initial time of the second observer, t₁ = -86 s

final time of the second observer, t₂ = ?

The time of the car motion, t = t₂ - t₁

113 = t₂ - t₁

113 = t₂ - (-86)

113 = t₂ + 86

t₂ = 113 - 86

t₂ = 27 s

Therefore, the time of the second observer at the end of the car motion is 27 s

A box is sliding with a speed of 4.50 m/s on a horizontal surface when, at point P, it encounters a rough section. On the rough section, the coefficient of friction is not constant, but starts at 0.100 at P and increases linearly with distance past P, reaching a value of 0.600 at 12.5 m past point P.

(a) Use the work energy theorem to find how far this box slides before stopping.

(b) What is the coefficient of friction at the stopping point?

(c) How far would the box have slid iff the friciton coefficient didn't increase, but instead had the constant value of .1?

Answers

Answer:

(a). The value of distance is 5.043 m

(b). The coefficient of friction is 0.302.

(c). The distance is 10.33 m

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed = 4.50 m/s

Minimum friction = 0.1

Maximum friction = 0.6

Distance = 12.5 m

We know that,

The newton's second law

[tex]F_{net}=-\mu N[/tex]

[tex]F_{net}=-\mu mg[/tex]

We know that,

The frictional coefficient is directly proportional to the distance.

We need to calculate the value of coefficient

Using general equation of frictional coefficient

[tex]\mu(x)=Ax+B[/tex]....(I)

At x= 0,

[tex]\mu(0)=0+B[/tex]

Put the value into the formula

[tex]B=0.1[/tex]  

Now for value of A

Put the value in equation (I)

[tex] 0.6=A12.5+0.1[/tex]

[tex]A=\dfrac{1}{25}[/tex]

Put the value in equation (I)

[tex]\mu(x)=\dfrac{x}{25}+0.1[/tex]......(II)

We need to calculate the work done

Using work energy theorem

[tex]W=\int_{0}^{x}{F_{net} dx}[/tex]

[tex]W=\int_{0}^{x}{-\mu_{x}mgdx}[/tex]

[tex]W=-mg\int_{0}^{x}{(\dfrac{x}{25}+0.1)dx}[/tex]

[tex]W=-mg(\dfrac{x^2}{50}+0.1x)[/tex]....(III)

(a). We need to calculate the distance

Using difference of kinetic energy

[tex]W=\dfrac{1}{2}m(v_{f}^2-v_{0}^2)[/tex]

[tex]-mg(\dfrac{x^2}{50}+0.1x)=\dfrac{1}{2}m(0-(4.50)^2)[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{x^2}{50}+0.1x=1.013[/tex]

[tex]x^2+5x=50.65[/tex]

[tex]x^2+5x-50.65=0[/tex]

[tex]x=5.043\ m[/tex]

(b). We need to calculate the coefficient of friction at the stopping point

Using equation (III)

[tex]\mu(5.043)=\dfrac{5.043}{25}+0.1[/tex]

[tex]\mu(5.043)=0.302[/tex]

(c). We need to calculate the distance

Using formula work done

[tex]W=-fx_{2}[/tex]

[tex]W=-\mu mgx_{2}[/tex]

[tex]-\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{0}^2=-\mu mgx_{2}[/tex]

[tex]x_{2}=\dfrac{v_{0}^2}{2\mu g}[/tex]

Put the value into the formula

[tex]x_{2}=\dfrac{(4.5)^2}{2\times0.1\times9.8}[/tex]

[tex]x_{2}=10.33\ m[/tex]

Hence, (a). The value of distance is 5.043 m

(b). The coefficient of friction is 0.302.

(c). The distance is 10.33 m

When using the right-hand rule to determine the direction of the magnetic force on a charge, which part of the hand points in the direction of the magnetic field? palm fingers back thumb

Answers

When using the right-hand rule to determine the direction of the magnetic force on a charge, the thumb is in the direction of the magnetic field.

What is the right-hand thumb rule?

The right-hand thumb rule is the method to recognize that there is only one velocity, which is symbolized by the thumb. There are a lot of field lines, which are symbolized by the fingers.

The force is directed in the direction in which you would press your palm. The force acting on a negative charge is the polar opposite of that acting on a positive charge.

A pure magnetic field will not accelerate a charged particle in a single direction since the force is always perpendicular to the velocity vector, but it will create circular or helical motion

It's worth noting that a magnetic field has no effect on a static electric charge. These two findings are consistent with the rule that magnetic fields are polarized.

Hence using the right-hand rule to determine the direction of the magnetic force on a charge, the thumb is in the direction of the magnetic field.
