The small spherical planet called "Glob" has a mass of 7.88×1018 kg and a radius of 6.32×104 m. An astronaut on the surface of G

lob throws a rock straight up. The rock reaches a maximum height of 1.44×103 m, above the surface of the planet, before it falls back down. Initial speed of the rock = 1.92×101 m/s. (Glob has no atmosphere, so no energy is lost to air friction. G = 6.67×10-11 Nm2/kg2.)
A 36.0 kg satellite is in a circular orbit with a radius of 1.45×105 m around the planet Glob. Calculate the speed of the satellite.

The orbiting speed of the satellite orbiting around the planet Glob is 60.8m/s.

To find the answer, we need to know about the orbital velocity a satellite.

<h3>What's the expression of orbital velocity of a satellite?</h3>
  • Mathematically, orbital velocity= √(GM/r)
  • G= gravitational constant= 6.67×10^(-11) Nm²/kg², M = mass of sun , r= radius of orbit

<h3>What's the orbital velocity of the satellite in a circular orbit with a radius of 1.45×10⁵ m around the planet Glob of mass 7.88×10¹⁸ kg?</h3>
  • Here, M= 7.88×10¹⁸ kg, r= 1.45×10⁵ m
  • Orbital velocity of the orbiting satellite = √(6.67×10^(-11)×7.88×10¹⁸/1.45×10⁵)

= 60.8m/s

Thus, we can conclude that the speed of the satellite orbiting the planet Glob is 60.8m/s.

Your car burns gasoline as you drive up a large mountain. What energy transformation is the car performing?
Sonja [21]

Your car is performing a transformation of energy of:

Chemical energy to Mechanical energy

The chemical is the gasoline which is then converted to fire as the car runs thus creating the movement of the car which is mechanical energy.

A shot is fired at an angle of 60 degree horizontal with Kinetic energy E. If air resistance is ignored, the K.E at the top of t
Lapatulllka [165]
I'm not sure what "60 degree horizontal" means.

I'm going to assume that it means a direction aimed 60 degrees
above the horizon and 30 degrees below the zenith. 

Now, I'll answer the question that I have invented.

When the shot is fired with speed of 'S' in that direction,
the horizontal component of its velocity is    S cos(60)  =  0.5 S ,
and the vertical component is   S sin(60) = S√3/2  =  0.866 S .  (rounded)

-- 0.75 of its kinetic energy is due to its vertical velocity.
That much of its KE gets used up by climbing against gravity.

-- 0.25 of its kinetic energy is due to its horizontal velocity.
That doesn't change. 

-- So at the top of its trajectory, its KE is 0.25 of what it had originally. 

That's  E/4 .
