The orbiting velocity of the satellite is 4.2km/s.

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

<h3>What's the expression of orbital velocity of a satellite?</h3>
  • Mathematically, orbital velocity= √(GM/r)
  • r = radius of the orbital, M = mass of earth
<h3>What's the orbital velocity of a satellite orbiting earth with a radius 3.57 times the earth radius?</h3>
  • M= 5.98×10²⁴ kg, r= 3.57× 6.37×10³ km = 22.7×10⁶m
  • Orbital velocity= √(6.67×10^(-11)×5.98×10²⁴/22.7×10⁶)

=4.2km/s

Thus, we can conclude that the orbiting velocity of the satellite is 4.2km/s.

Suppose that a steel bridge, 1000 m long, were built without any expansion joints. Suppose that only one end of the bridge was h
Stels [109]

Answer:

The difference in the length of the bridge is 0.42 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Length = 1000 m

Winter temperature = 0°C

Summer temperature = 40°C

Coefficient of thermal expansion \alpha= 10.5\times10^{-6}\ K^{-1}

We need to calculate the difference in the length of the bridge

Using formula of the difference in the length

\Delta L=L\alpha\Delta T

Where, \Delta T= temperature difference

\alpha=Coefficient of thermal expansion

L= length

Put the value into the formula

\Delta L=1000\times10.5\times10^{-6}(40^{\circ}-0^{\circ})

\Delta L=0.42\ m

Hence, The difference in the length of the bridge is 0.42 m.

Can you help me with my homework please ? Science
geniusboy [140]
The formula for average​ speed is S=D/T

1. S=72m/37s

Divide

S= 1.94

Kira's average speed is 1.94m/s.

2. S=7.5km / 1.5h

S=5

Your average speed is 5km/h

3. S=1260km/3.5h

S=360

The airplanes average speed is 360km/h

jeremie ran around the track at the ymca for 2 hours. when he was done he figured that he had traveled 20 kilometers. what was h
laila [671]
(1) Speed is the ratio of the total distance covered by the object and the total time it takes for him to finish it. 

    Speed = distance / time 

In this item, we are given that the distance is 20 kilometers and that the time it takes for the trip is 2 hours. Substituting the known values,
   Speed = 20 kilometers / 2 hours 
    speed = 20 km/h

(2) Velocity on the other hand takes into account the displacement of the object from his original position. It is assumed that Jeremie was basically back to his original position after two hours. Hence, the velocity is equal to zero.
