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 speedboat increases its speed from 14.5 m/s to 29.3 m/s in a distance of 172 m.
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

a. Acceleration, a = 1.88 m/s²

b. Time, t = 7.87 seconds.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial velocity, U = 14.5m/s

Final velocity, V = 29.3m/s

Distance, S = 172m

a. To find the acceleration of the speedboat;

We would use the third equation of motion;

V² = U² + 2aS

Substituting into the formula

29.3² = 14.5² + 2a*172

858.49 = 210.25 + 344a

344a = 858.49 - 210.25

344a = 648.24

a = 648.24/344

Acceleration, a = 1.88 m/s²

b. To find the time;

We would use the first equation of motion;

V = U + at

29.3 = 14.5 + 1.88t

1.88t = 29.3 - 14.5

1.88t = 14.8

Time, t = 14.8/1.88

Time, t = 7.87 seconds.

vovangra [49]

c. The Moon is positioned directly between the earth and the sun is the statement that does not result in an eclipse.

Explanation:

  • The Sun is completely blocked in a solar eclipse because the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun.
  • it is just the right distance away from Earth, the Moon can fully blocks the Sun's light from Earth's perspective
