The Mars Curiosity rover was required to land on the surface of Mars with a velocity of 1 m/s. Given the mass of the landing vehicle and parachute is 2270 kg, the drag coefficient is effectively 0.5, the atmosphere density is 0.71 that of Earth (take Earth atmosphere density as 1.2 kg/m3), and the Martian gravitational acceleration is 3.689 m/s2, find the required total frontal area (in m2) of the lander plus a parachute to land at the given velocity. Assume the landing vehicle has achieved terminal velocity as it falls through the Martian atmosphere.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The value is      [tex]A = 39315 \ m^2[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The velocity which the rover is suppose to land with is  [tex]v = 1 \ m/s[/tex]

    The  mass of the rover and the parachute is  [tex]m = 2270 \ kg[/tex]

     The  drag coefficient is  [tex]C__{D}} = 0.5[/tex]

      The atmospheric density of Earth  is  [tex]\rho = 1.2 \ kg/m^3[/tex]

     The acceleration due to gravity in Mars is  [tex]g_m = 3.689 \ m/s^2[/tex]

     

Generally the Mars  atmosphere density is mathematically represented as

          [tex]\rho_m = 0.71 * \rho[/tex]

=>        [tex]\rho_m = 0.71 * 1.2[/tex]

=>        [tex]\rho_m = 0.852 \ kg/m^3[/tex]

Generally the drag force on the rover and the parachute  is mathematically represented as

          [tex]F__{D}} = m * g_{m}[/tex]

=>       [tex]F__{D}} = 2270 * 3.689[/tex]  

=>       [tex]F__{D}} = 8374 \ N[/tex]  

Gnerally this drag force is mathematically represented as

         [tex]F__{D}} = C__{D}} * A * \frac{\rho_m * v^2 }{2}[/tex]

Here A is the frontal area

So  

         [tex]A = \frac{2 * F__D }{ C__D} * \rho_m * v^2 }[/tex]

=>       [tex]A = \frac{2 * 8374 }{ 0.5 * 0.852 * 1 ^2 }[/tex]

=>       [tex]A = 39315 \ m^2[/tex]

Young's double slit experiment is one of the quintessential experiments in physics. The availability of low cost lasers in recent years allows us to perform the double slit experiment rather easily in class. Your professor shines a green laser (568 nm) on a double slit with a separation of 0.107 mm. The diffraction pattern shines on the classroom wall 3.5 m away. Calculate the fringe separation between the third order and central fringe.

Answers

Answer:

18.58 mm

Explanation:

Formula for the fringe width is;

β = λL/d

We are given;

λ = 568 nm = 568 × 10^(-9) m

L = 3.5 m

d = 0.107 mm = 0.107 × 10^(-3) mm

β = (568 × 10^(-9) × 3.5)/(0.107 × 10^(-3))

β = 0.01858 m = 18.58 mm

An arrow is shot straight up in the air at an initial speed of 15 m/s. After how much time is the arrow heading downward at a speed of 8 m/s?

Answers

Answer:

2.35 seconds

Explanation:

Remark

This is a question where direction matters.  Let us call down + and up minus. It won't matter. The answer will be the same.

Formula

a = (vf - vi)/t

Givens

a = 9.8 m/s^2

vi = - 15 m/s

vf = 8m/s

Solution

9.8 = (8 - - 15)/t                 Multiply both sides by t

t * 9.8 = 23                       Divide by 9.8

t = 23/9.8

t = 2.35 s

A golfer shoots a ball horizontally off a cliff with a speed of 80.0 m/s, and it lands 471m from the base of the cliff.

1. How long is the golf ball in the air?
2. What is the height of the cliff?
3. What is the golf ball/s speed when it lands?

Answers

Answer:

1. t = 5.89 s

2. h = 170 m

3. Vf = 57.8 m/s

Explanation:

1.

First, we analyze the horizontal motion of the golf ball. Assuming the air friction to be negligible, the horizontal motion will be uniform. So, e can use the following equation:

[tex]s = vt[/tex]

where,

s = horizontal distance covered by the golf ball = 471 m

v = horizontal speed of golf ball = 80 m/s

t = time taken by the golf ball in air = ?

Therefore,

[tex]471\ m = (80\ m/s)t\\\\t = \frac{471\ m}{80\ m/s}\\\\[/tex]

t = 5.89 s

2.

Now, we analyze the vertical motion. Using 2nd equation of motion:

[tex]h = v_{i}t + \frac{1}{2}gt^2[/tex]

where,

h = height of cliff = ?

vi = vertical component of initial speed of ball = 0 m/s(ball was shot horizontally)

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

t = time of flight = 5.89 s

Therefore,

[tex]h = (0\ m/s)(5.89\ s) + \frac{1}{2}(9.81\ m/s^2)(5.89\ s)^2[/tex]

h = 170 m

3.

Now, we can use 1st equation of motion:

[tex]v_{f} = v_{i} + gt\\v_{f} = 0 m/s + (9.81\ m/s^2)(5.89\ s)\\[/tex]

Vf = 57.8 m/s

a. What is the weight of the object in water?
b.What is the Upthrust acting on the object in water?
c. What is the weight of the water displaced by the object?​

Answers

Answer:

a. Weight of Object in Water = 20 N

b. Up thrust = 20 N

c. Weight of Water Displaced = 20 N

Explanation:

a.

The weight of the object remains same in the water as well. Because, the same force of gravity is acting there as well. Hence,

Weight of Object in Water = 20 N

b.

Since, the object floats on the water. Therefore, according to Archimedes' principle the up thrust force acting on the object must be equal to the weight of object:

Up thrust = Weight of object

Up thrust = 20 N

c.

From Archimedes' Principle, we know that the up thrust or the Buoyant force is equal to the weight of the water displaced by the object. therefore:

Weight of Water Displaced = Up thrust

Weight of Water Displaced = 20 N

a. 0.72 kg
b. 1.2 kg
c. 1.6 kg
d. 7.1 kg
e. 0.36 kg

Answers

Answer:

0.462kg

Explanation:

Density = Mass/Volume

Given

Density of the wood = 0.390 g/cm^3

Volume of the wood = Length * Width * Height

Volume = 21 * 9.53 * 5.92

Volume = 1,184.7696cm³

Get the mass m;

mass = density * volume

mass = 0.390 * 1,184.7696

mass = 462.060144g

The mass in kg is 0.462kg

A food processor draws 8.47 A of current when connected to a potential difference of 110 V.

How much electrical energy is consumed by this food processor monthly (30 days) if it is used on average of 10.0 min every day?

Answers

Answer:

27.95[kW*min]

Explanation:

We must remember that the power can be determined by the product of the current by the voltage.

[tex]P=V*I[/tex]

where:

P = power [W]

V = voltage [volt]

I = amperage [Amp]

Now replacing:

[tex]P=110*8.47\\P=931.7[W][/tex]

Now the energy consumed can be obtained mediate the multiplication of the power by the amount of time in operation, we must obtain an amount in Kw per hour [kW-min]

[tex]Energy = 931.7[kW]*30[days]*10[\frac{min}{1day} ]=279510[W*min]or 27.95[kW*min][/tex]

B. The frequency decreases and the wavelength increases.
C. The frequency stays the same and the wavelength increases.
D.The frequency stays the same and the wavelength decreases.
E. Neither the frequency nor the wavelength is affected.

Answers

Answer:

The frequency stays the same and the wavelength decreases.

Explanation:

When sound wave enters a new medium where sound travels faster, its frequency will remain same because it depends only on the source.

The relation between wavelength and speed is inverse, it means when the speed of sound increases, its wavelength will decrease.

So, the frequency stays the same and the wavelength decreases. Hence, the correct option is (d).

Find the range of projectile launched at the angle of 45 with an intial velocity of 25 m/s

Answers

Answer:

10

Explanation:

Given that :

Initial Velocity (u) = 25 m/s

Range can be obtained using the relation :

Range = (u² * sin2θ) / g

g = 10m/s ; θ = 45

Range = [10² * sin2(45)] / 10

Range = [100 * 1] ÷ 10

Range = 10

Light of intensity So and polarized horizontally passes through three polarizes. The first and third are horizontal, but the second is oriented 0.3927 rad to the horizontal. In terms of So , what is the intensity of the light that passes through the set of polarizers

Answers

Answer: the intensity of the light that passes through the set of polarizers is  0.7285 S₀

Explanation:

based on the data in the question;

As the first polarizer lets all the light through because its plane of polarization is not different from light.

The second polarizer has 2 effects;

firstly, it reduces the intensity by a factor cos²0.3927^c; if you switch the calculator to radians mode, this will give you 0.85355

Secondly; it changes the plane of polarization of the light to be the same as the polarizer; therefore the light now has a plane of polarization of 0.3927 rad to the horizontal.

Hence;

after the second effect, the light enters the third polarizer at 0.3927 rad to the plane of polarization of third polarizer. So the intensity is again reduced by a factor 0.85355.

Therefore

the Overall reduction is by a factor of 0.85355 × 0.85355 S₀

= 0.7285 S₀

Therefore the intensity of the light that passes through the set of polarizers is  0.7285 S₀

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

1400 m/s2

The acceleration of the ball when it hits the vertical wall is -1,400 m/s²

The given expression:

velocity of the ball, v = 28 m/s

time of  motion of the ball, t = 0.02 s

To find:

Which type of circuit would be best to use for lights used for decorations? Question 1 options: Series circuit. One bulb could go out and the strand will stay on. Series circuit. One bulb could go out and the rest go out. Parallel circuit. One bulb goes out and the rest go out. Parallel circuit. One bulb could go out and the strand will stay on.

Answers

Answer:

One bulb could go out and the strand will stay on.

Explanation:

In series circuit, there is only one path provided for the current to flow. So, all the lights are required to be in working condition, for the others to work. And if anyone light bulb goes out, the circuit will become incomplete and the rest of the strand will also go out. Because there is only one path for current flow which is now broken.

On the other hand, in parallel circuits, each light bulb has a separate connection with the source. Current path to each bulb is independent of the others. Therefore, if one bulb goes out, the rest of the strand will stay on.

So, the correct option is:

One bulb could go out and the strand will stay on.

The moment of inertial of the hoop yo-yo when it is: (a) rotating about its center of mass, and (b) rotating about the point where the tension force is applied
mass=332g
diamater=35.9cm
thickness.95cm

Answers

Answer:

a) The moment of inertia of the hoop yo-yo rotating about its center of mass is [tex]I_{g} = 0.0108\,kg\cdot m^{2}[/tex].

b) The moment of inertial of the hoop yo-yo rotating about its center of mass is [tex]I_{O} = 0.0216\,kg\cdot m^{2}[/tex].

Explanation:

a) The hoop yo-yo can be modelled as a tours with a minor radius [tex]a[/tex], related with the thickness, and with a major radius [tex]b[/tex], related with the diameter, and with an uniform mass. The momentum of inertia about its center of mass ([tex]I_{g}[/tex]), measured in kilogram-square meters, which is located at the geometrical center of the element, is determined by the following formula:

[tex]I_{g} = \frac{1}{4}\cdot m \cdot (4\cdot b^{2}+3\cdot a^{2})[/tex] (1)

[tex]b = 0.5\cdot D[/tex] (2)

[tex]a = 0.5\cdot t[/tex] (3)

Where:

[tex]D[/tex] - Diameter, measured in meters.

[tex]t[/tex] - Thickness, measured in meters.

[tex]m[/tex] - Mass, measured in kilograms.

If we know that [tex]m = 0.332\,kg[/tex], [tex]D = 0.359\,m[/tex] and [tex]t = 9.5\times 10^{-3}\,m[/tex], then the moment of inertia of the hoop yo-yo is:

[tex]a = 0.5\cdot (9.5\times 10^{-3}\,m)[/tex]

[tex]a = 4.75\times 10^{-3}\,m[/tex]

[tex]b = 0.5\cdot (0.359\,m)[/tex]

[tex]b = 0.180\,m[/tex]

[tex]I_{g} = \frac{1}{4}\cdot (0.332\,kg)\cdot [4\cdot (0.180\,m)^{2}+3\cdot (4.75\times 10^{-3}\,m)^{2}][/tex]

[tex]I_{g} = 0.0108\,kg\cdot m^{2}[/tex]

The moment of inertia of the hoop yo-yo rotating about its center of mass is [tex]I_{g} = 0.0108\,kg\cdot m^{2}[/tex].

b) The hoop yo-yo rotate at a point located at a distance of half diameter from the center of mass of the element, whose moment of inertia is determined by the Theorem of Parallel Axes:

[tex]I_{O} = I_{g} +m\cdot r^{2}[/tex] (4)

Where:

[tex]r[/tex] - Distance between parallel axes, measured in meters.

If we know that [tex]I_{g} = 0.0108\,kg\cdot m^{2}[/tex], [tex]m = 0.332\,kg[/tex] and [tex]r = 0.180\,m[/tex], then the moment of inertial of the hoop yo-yo rotating about the point where the tension force is applied is:

[tex]I_{O} = 0.0108\,kg\cdot m^{2}+(0.332\,kg)\cdot (0.180\,m)^{2}[/tex]

[tex]I_{O} = 0.0216\,kg\cdot m^{2}[/tex]

The moment of inertial of the hoop yo-yo rotating about its center of mass is [tex]I_{O} = 0.0216\,kg\cdot m^{2}[/tex].
