There can be an experiment run using two or more cleansers at the same time as the manufacturers' one
The acceleration due to gravity serves as the centripetal acceleration of the objects that orbits the Earth. The centripetal acceleration due to gravity is calculated through the equation,
a = v²/r
where v is the speed and r is the radius. Substituting the known values to the equation,
9.8 m/s² = (420 m/s)² / r
The value of r from the equation is 18000 m or equal to 18 km.
<em>Answer: 18 km</em>
Answer:
5.23km/s
Explanation:
Given
Radius of Earth = 6.37 * 10^6 m
Altitude of Satellite = 8200km = 8200 * 10³m = 8.2 * 10^6 m
Gravity Acceleration on Satellite Altitude = 1.87965m/s²
For a satellite to remain in circular orbit, then it means the acceleration of gravity must be exact as the centripetal acceleration.
Centripetal Acceleration = V²/R
So, Acceleration of Gravity (A)= Centripetal Acceleration = V²/R
Make V the subject of formula
A = V²/R
V² = AR
V = √AR
Where R = (radius of earth) + (altitude of satellite)
R = 6.37 * 10^6 + 8.2 * 10^6
R = 14.57 * 10^6m
A = 1.87965m/s²
V = √(1.87965 * 14.57x10^6)
V = √27386500.5
V = 5233.211299001789
V = 5233.2113 m/s ------- Approximated
V = 5.23km/s
