Drop Tower NASA operates a 2.2-second drop tower at the Glenn Research Center in Cleveland, Ohio. At this facility, experimental packages are dropped from the top of the tower, on the ath floor of the building. During their 2.2 seconds of tree fall, experiments experience a microgravity environment similar to that of a spacecraft in orbit.

- A spacecraft lands on a newly discovered planet orbiting the star 51 Pegasi. To measure the acceleration from gravity on the planet, an astronaut drops a rock from a height of 2 m. A precision timer indicates that it takes the rock 0.71 s to fall to the surface. What is the acceleration from gravity on this planet?On the Apollo 14 mission to the moon, astronaut Alan Shepard hit a golf ball with a golf club improvised from a tool. The free-fall acceleration on the moon is 1/61/6 of its value on earth. Suppose he hit the ball with a speed of 28 m/sm/s at an angle 31o above the horizontal. Express your answer using two significant figures. (a) How long was the ball in flight?(b) How far did it travel?(c) How much farther would it have traveled on the moon than on earth?youtube.com/watch?v=srDeACrSf-o&t=12s In the video, I drop a ball off a three-story balcony. We know that objects in freefall follow the equation for height h, in meters, h=−4.9t2+ch=-4.9t2+c, where t is time in seconds, and c is the initial height. A student timed the drop at 1.51 seconds.Use this to determine the height from which the ball was dropped, to at least 2 decimal places.
- Answer the following question(s): A student sees her physical science professor approaching on the sidewalk that runs by her dorm. She gets a water balloon and waits. When the professor is 2.0s from being directly under the window about 11m from the sidewalk, she drops the balloon. Finish the story. Instructor Note: There are several ways to reach the correct answer. I generally solve for time to determine if balloon will hit the professor or not based on the given scenario. A formula to use is ?=12??2d=12gt2?d = 1 2 g t 2 where d = distance g = gravitational constant of 9.8 t = timeNASA is launching a rocket into space from Earth. This particular rocket burns its fuel for 5 minutes and then turns off its engines. At this point, the rocket keeps floating along through space at a speed of 10 km/s. What is the rocket’s average acceleration during these first 5 minutes? Part 2: How far did the rocket travel during the first 5 minutes? Part 3: The Moon is approximately 3.8.105 km from Earth. At its final speed, how long will it take the rocket to reach the Moon? Part 4: The star nearest to us, called Alpha Centauri, is 4.1.1013 km away. Could this rocket get a man to Alpha Centauri before he dies of old age? (This is a real obstacle to NASA’s plans of exploring other solar systems than our own!) Part 5: The rocket is half way to the Moon when its pilot suddenly notices he forgot his camera! He radios a second rocket crew on Earth and tells them to bring his camera and meet him on the Moon when he lands. Unfortunately, the second rocket can only…1. An object is at x = -10 m moving at a constant velocity of 10 m/s. What would be the position of the body after 10 seconds? 2. Two siblings, Kaeya and Diluc, decided to take a walk around Mondstadt, following its perimeter guarded by walls. For those who haven't seen Mondstadt, you can imagine it as a city of walls with beautiful German architecture. Let's roughly assume that the walls are encircling it in a perfect circle. Both Kaeya and Diluc started at the front of the huge city gate (marked at 0 degrees), and they walk separately, away from each other. Assuming that radius of the circular city of Mondstadt to be 500 m, and the constant walking speed of both siblings to be 0.5 m/s, how long until the siblings achieve the greatest separation distance between them? 3.

- I'm having trouble completing the problem I've attached a picture of below. I was able to find the the Earth's average speed in m/s relative to the sun by doing (2pi*(1.49x10^11))/31536000. But I am struggling to find the average velocity for the same thing over a period of one year in m/s. I was wondering how to calculate that? I've tried doing the (final velocity-initial velocity)/2 but the program doesn't accept my answer when using that approach.The planetary model of the atom pictures electronsorbiting the atomic nucleus much as planets orbit the Sun. Inthis model you can view hydrogen, the simplest atom, ashaving a single electron in a circular orbit 1.06×10−10 m indiameter. (a) If the average speed of the electron in this orbitis known to be 2.20×106 m/s , calculate the number ofrevolutions per second it makes about the nucleus. (b) Whatis the electron’s average velocity?NASA is launching a rocket into space from Earth. This particular rocket burns its fuel for 5 minutes and then turns off its engines. At this point, the rocket keeps floating along through space at a speed of 10 km/s. What is the rocket’s average acceleration during these first 5 minutes?
- Starting from rest (stationary), an object experiences constant acceleration. From the time the acceleration starts, it travels 1.72 x 105km (in the positive direction) in 1 hour. What is the value of this acceleration? Give your answer in m/s21. If an object is moving with constant acceleration, what is the shape of its velocity vs. time graph? What is the significance of the slope? What is the significance of the y-intercept? 2. If an object is moving with constant acceleration, what is the shape of its distance vs. time graph? What is the significance of the slope of a distance vs. time curve? What is the significance of the y-intercept?A woman rides on a Ferris wheel of radius 16m that maintains the same speed throughout its motion. To better understand physics, she takes along a digital bathroom scale (with memory) and sits on it. When she gets off the ride, she uploads the scale readings to a computer and creates a graph of scale reading versus time. (Figure 1) Note that the graph has a minimum value of 510N and a maximum value of 666N. The acceleration due to gravity, g=9.80m/s2. What is the woman's mass?
