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.

Sheila eats an energy bar right before she goes on a run. What energy changes will occur in sheila as she runs after eating?
LiRa [457]
The energy bar eaten by Sheila has chemical energy locked up inside it. This chemical energy is converted to mechanical energy in form of potential and kinetic energy and this in turn is converted to heat energy as the run progresses. Thus, the energy changes are: chemical energy to mechanical energy [kinetic and potential] and finally to heat energy.

This diagram represents the synthesis of nitrogen monoxide. Write a balanced equation of this chemical reaction. A) N2(g) + O2(g
ruslelena [56]
The only balanced equation is B. 

If you look at the equation and break it down you can see that in:

N_{2} + O_{2}→ 2NO

Starting from the left side of the equation there are 2 Nitrogen atoms, and 2 oxygen atoms as indicated by the subscript. 

To balance the equation, the number of atoms of each element in the right side equation should be equal to left. By putting the numerical coefficient of 2, you will distribute that to each element. So you will end up with 2 nitrogen atoms and 2 oxygen atoms on the left side of the equation. Thus, the equation is balanced. 

The answer again, is B.

PLEASE HELP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!
Elan Coil [88]

The spring constant is 181.0 N/m

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by applying the law of conservation of energy. In fact, the elastic potential energy initially stored in the compressed spring is completely converted into gravitational potential energy of the dart when the dart is at its maximum height. Therefore, we can write:

\frac{1}{2}kx^2 = mgh

where the term on the left represents the elastic potential energy of the spring while the term on the right is the gravitational potential energy of the dart at maximum height, and where

k is the spring constant of the spring

x = 2.08 cm = 0.0208 m is the compression of the spring

m = 12.3 g = 0.00123 kg is the mass of the dart

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

h = 3.25 m is the maximum height of the dart

Solving for k, we find:

k=\frac{2mgh}{x^2}=\frac{2(0.00123)(9.8)(3.25)}{(0.0208)^2}=181.0 N/m
