On Apollo Moon missions, the lunar module would blast off from the Moon's surface and dock with the command module in lunar orbit. After docking, the lunar module would be jettisoned and allowed to crash back onto the lunar surface. Seismometers placed on the Moon's surface by the astronauts would then pick up the resulting seismic waves.
Find the impact speed of the lunar module, given that it is jettisoned from an orbit 110 km above the lunar surface moving with a speed of 1600 m/s .
My Approach:
Ei = Ef
1/2*m*vi2 - (G*m*ME)/(radius of moon + orbital distance) = 1/2*m*vf2 - (G*m*ME)/r
=> (0.5 * m * 16002) - (6.67 * 10-11 * 7.35*1022 * m/(1737.4*103 +180*103) = (0.5*m*v^2) - (6.67*10-11 * 7.35*1022 * m/(1737.4*103 )

The second largest public utility in the nation is the sole provider of electricity in 32 counties of southern florida. to meet the monthly demand for electricity in these counties, which is given by the inverse demand function p = 1,200 – 4q, the utility company has set up two electric generating facilities: q1 kilowatts are produced at facility 1, and q2 kilowatts are produced at facility 2 (so q = q1 + q2). the costs of producing electricity at each facility are given by c1(q1) = 8,000 + 6q12 and c2(q2) = 6,000 + 3q22, respectively. determine the profit-maximizing amounts of electricity to produce at the two facilities, the optimal price, and the utility company’s profit

Regarding the history of the universe, which of the following is true? all the chemical elements were created during the big bang, but some have been modified since that time as a result of radioactive decay. the earth formed quickly after the big bang. all the current stars in our galaxy formed about the same time billions of years ago. key elements of which earth and life are made, including carbon, oxygen, and iron, did not exist when the universe was born and were created later in stars.
