Q C Many people assume air resistance acting on a moving object will always make the object slow down. It can, however, actually

be responsible for making the object speed up. Consider a 100 - kg Earth satellite in a circular orbit at an altitude of 200 km . A small force of air resistance makes the satellite drop into a circular orbit with an altitude of 100km. (e) Show that the system has lost mechanical energy and find the amount of the loss due to friction.

$E_i-E_f=-17.94 \times 10^9 \mathrm{~J}-\left(-18.30 \times 10^9 \mathrm{~J}\right)=3.60 \times 10^8 \mathrm{~J}$.

The most effective forces on the object are the backward force of air resistance relatively very small in magnitude, and the force of gravity. Because the spiral path of the satellite is not perpendicular to the gravitational force, one element of the gravitational force pulls forward. at the satellite to do fantastic work & make its speed increase.

<h3>What is called gravitational force?</h3>

Gravity, additionally referred to as gravitation, is a force that exists amongst all material gadgets withinside the universe. For any objects or particles having nonzero mass, the force of gravity tends to draw them in the direction of each other. Gravity operates on objects of all sizes, from subatomic particles to clusters of galaxies.

An automobile with a mass of 1232 kg accelerates at a rate of 2 m/s² in the forward direction. What is the net force acting on t
boyakko [2]
Based on Newton's second law:
Force = mass x acceleration

For this problem: we have the mass = 1232 kg and the acceleration = 2 m/s^2
So, just substitute with the givens in the above equation to calculate the force as follows:
Force = 1232 x 2 = 2464 Newtons

The Sun’s surface temperature is about 5800 K and its spectrum peaks at 5000 Å. An O-type star’s surface temperature may be 40,0
nirvana33 [79]

(a) 7.25\cdot 10^{-8}m

Wien's displacement law is summarized by the equation

\lambda = \frac{b}{T}

where

\lambda is the peak wavelength

b=2.898\cdot 10^{-3} m \cdot K is Wien's displacement constant

T is the absolute temperature at the surface of the star

For an O-type star, we have

T = 40,000 K

Therefore, its peak wavelength is

\lambda = \frac{2.898\cdot 10^{-3}}{40000}=7.25\cdot 10^{-8}m

(b) Ultraviolet

We can answer this part by looking at the wavelength range of the different parts of the electromagnetic spectrum:

gamma rays  

X-rays  1 nm - 1 pm

ultraviolet  380 nm - 1 nm

visible light  750 nm - 380 nm

infrared  25 \mu m - 750 nm

microwaves  1 mm - 25 \mu m

radio waves  > 1 mm

The peak wavelength of this star is

\lambda=7.25\cdot 10^{-8}m=72.5 nm

Therefore, it falls in the ultraviolet region.

(c) No

The Keck telescopes is actually a system of 2 telescopes in the Keck Observatory, located in Mauna kea, Hawai.

The two telescopes, thanks to several instruments, are able to detect  much of the electromagnetic radiation in the visible ligth and infrared parts of the spectrum. However, they are not able to detect light in the ultraviolet region: therefore, they cannot observe the star mentioned in the previous part of the problem.
