As the satellite panels extend, the angular velocity decreases due to drag force, and hence it will cause a decrease in the angular momentum of the satellite.

<h3>What is angular momentum?</h3>

Angular momentum is defined as the quantity of rotation of a body, which is the product of  mass, velocity and radius.

L = mvr

L = mωr²

where;

  • m is mass of the object
  • v is velocity
  • r is radius
  • ω is angular velocity

As the satellite panels extend, the angular velocity decreases due to drag force, and hence it will cause a decrease in the angular momentum of the satellite.

A typical meteor that hits the earth's upper atmosphere has a mass of only 2.5 g, about the same as a penny, but it is moving at
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

Answer:u=66.67 m/s

Explanation:

Given

mass of meteor m=2.5 gm\approx 2.5\times 10^{-3} kg

velocity of meteor v=40km/s \approx 40000 m/s

Kinetic Energy of Meteor

K.E.=\frac{mv^2}{2}

K.E.=\frac{2.5\times 10^{-3}\times (4000)^2}{2}

K.E.=2\times 10^6 J

Kinetic Energy of Car

=\frac{1}{2}\times Mu^2

=\frac{1}{2}\times 900\times u^2

\frac{1}{2}\times 900\times u^2=2\times 10^6  

900\times u^2=4\times 10^6

u^2=\frac{4}{9}\times 10^4

u=\frac{2}{3}\times 10^2

u=66.67 m/s

One molecule of bromine (Br2) and two molecules of potassium chloride (KCI) combine in a reaction. How many atoms are in the pro
Liula [17]

In the reaction between 1 molecule of bromine and 2 molecules of potassium chloride, there are six atoms in the products.

Let's consider the balanced equation for the reaction between 1 molecule of bromine and 2 molecules of potassium chloride. This is a single replacement reaction.

Br₂ + 2 KCl ⇒ 2 KBr + Cl₂

We obtain as products, 2 molecules of potassium bromide and 1 molecule of chlorine.

  • 1 molecule of KBr has 2 atoms, so 2 molecules contribute with 4 atoms.
  • 1 molecule of Cl₂ has 2 atoms.
  • The 4 atoms from KBr and the 2 atoms from Cl₂ make a total of 6 atoms.

In the reaction between 1 molecule of bromine and 2 molecules of potassium chloride, there are six atoms in the products.
