A 1,160 kg satellite orbits earth with a tangential speed of 7,446 m/s. if the satellite experiences a centripetal force of 8,95

5 n, what is the height of the satellite above the surface of earth? recall that earth’s radius is 6.38 × 106 m and earth’s mass is 5.97 × 1024 kg. 3.71 × 1028 m 8.02 × 105 m 7.20 × 105 m 9.67 × 1028 m

The satellite is 8.02 × 10⁵ m above Earth's surface.

Let H be the height above the surface of the Earth; since we know that the satellite is rotating around the Earth due to the gravitational pull of the planet, we may assert

Procedure to solve:

F = mv²/R+H

H = mv²/F - R

H = (1160 × 7446²/8955 - 6.38 × 10⁶)

M = 8.02 × 10⁵ m

About centripetal force:

The force applied to an item that is in velocity of  curved motion that is pointed toward the axis of rotation or the centre of curvature is known as a centripetal force.

The centripetal force formula is given as the product of mass (in kg) and tangential velocity (in meters per second) squared, divided by the radius (in meters) that implies that on doubling the tangential velocity, the centripetal force will be quadrupled. Mathematically it is written as:

F = mv²/r

How do Swati and Banks adjust their body position during a skydiving jump so they can fall at the same rate?
Wittaler [7]

Sky diving involves free fall under gravity along with the drag due to air molecules pushing against the body slowing the rate of fall of a body. This is actually a significant amount of force.  The drag force depends on the contact surface area and weight of the body. More the surface area in contact, more would be the drag. The sitting position of the skydiver would experience less drag than the chest down position. This is because of the less contact surface area of the body with the air molecules while in the former case. Since no two persons have identical body shape and weight, the rate of fall can be made nearly equal but not exactly equal. This is would be possible when they are having same body position.

Standing on a mountain, you look towards another mountain 6.00 km away, on which there are two persons standing 1.00 meter apart
allsm [11]

Answer:

No.

Explanation:

We shall solve this problem by calculating the resolving power of eye for given wavelength

Resolving Power of eye = \frac{1.22\lambda }{D}

Where λ is wave length of light and D is diameter of eye.

λ is 600 nm and D is 3.5 mm . Put these values in the given formula

Resolving Power = \frac{1.22\times 600\times 10^{-9} }{3.5\times 10^{-3}}\\

=209.14 \times 10^{-6}radian

From the formula

Φ = \frac{L}{D}[/tex]

Where Ф is resolving power . If L be distance between two points that can be resolved at distance D. D is 6 km or 6000 m .

209.14  \times 10^{-6}=\frac{L}{6000}\\

L= 1.254 m

So minimum distance that can be resolved is 1.254 m.

A capacitor is connected to an ac supply. increasing the frequency of the supply _________ the current through the capacitor
Alja [10]

A capacitor is connected to an ac supply. increasing the frequency of the supply increases the current through the capacitor

A capacitor is a device for storing electrical energy that consists of two insulated conductors in close proximity. The parallel-plate capacitor is a simple example of such a storage device.

A capacitor (also known as a condenser) is a two-terminal passive electrical component that stores energy electrostatically in an electric field. Practical capacitors come in a variety of shapes and sizes, but they all have at least two electrical conductors (plates) separated by a dielectric (i.e., insulator).

Capacitors exist in various shapes and sizes, and their value is measured in farads (F). Capacitors are utilized in both alternating current and direct current systems.

A tightrope walker is walking between two buildings holding a pole with length L=14.0 m, and mass mp=17.5 kg. The daredevil grip
Artemon [7]

Answer:

F = 32.28 N

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use the rotational equilibrium relation

          Σ τ = 0

In the initial configuration it is in equilibrium, for which all the torque and forces are compensated. By the time the payment lands on the bar, we assume that the counter-clockwise turns are positive.

          W_bird  L / 2 - F_left 0.595 - F_right 0.595 = 0

we assume that the magnitude of the forces applied by the hands is the same

          F_left = F_right = F

          W_bird L / 2 - 2 F 0.595 = 0

          F = \frac{m_{bird} \ g L} { 4 \ 0.595}

   

we calculate

         F = 0.560 9.8 14.0 /2.38

         F = 32.28 N
