A satellite orbits earth at 800 m from the earth's center. Gravity at this location is 6.2 m/s^2. What is the velocity of the sa
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Recall that the magnitude of the acceleration a of a particle moving with speed v in a circular path around a point at a distance R away from the particle is given by

a=\dfrac{v^2}R

So, the satellite has velocity

6.2\,\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}=\dfrac{v^2}{800\,\rm m}\implies v=70.4\,\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}

pointing in the direction tangent to the circular path.

The average radial velocity of galaxies in the Hercules cluster is 10,800 km/s. (a) using H0 = 73 km/s/Mpc, find the distance to
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

a) 147.95 Mpc

Explanation:

Using Hubble's formula

v = H_od

where;

v = radical velocity

H_o = Hubble's constant

d = distance

Given that:

The average radial velocity of galaxies in the Hercules cluster v =  10,800 km/s

Also using H_o = 73 km/s/ Mpc ; we  make distance d the subject of the formula:

Then distance d can be written as:

d = \frac{v}{H_o}

d = \frac{10,800  \ km/s}{73 \ km/s/Mpc}

d = 147.95 Mpc

b)

Now, if the Hubble constant had a smaller value, then for a  given velocity the distance to the galaxy will increase because distance d is inversely proportional to H_o

i.e  

d  ∝ \frac{1}{H_0}

A. Blue light has higher energy than red light. Write 3 - 4 sentences comparing these electromagnetic waves with respect to the
frosja888 [35]

PART A)

As we know that energy of light depends on its wavelength and frequency as following formula

E = \frac{hc}{\lambda} = h\nu

now we know that wavelength of blue light is less than the red light so here energy of blue light will be more

also we know that

\nu = \frac{c}{\lambda}

so here if wavelength is smaller for blue light so its frequency will be high and the speed of both light will be same in same medium

PART B)

Since we know that frequency of blue light is more than red light as well as wavelength of blue light is less than the wavelength of blue light so here blue light will have more energy

When blue light and red light strike the metal surface then due to more energy of blue light it will release some loosely bonded electrons from metal surface which will contribute in current.

here if we increase the intensity of light then the number of photons that contain the blue light of certain energy will be more and that will contribute more current

So here quantification help as we know that due to quantization only certain frequency or energy will lead to eject electron so all colours will not give this current

An object moving 20 m/s
yan [13]

Answer:

<u>We are given:</u>

initial velocity (u) = 20m/s

acceleration (a) = 4 m/s²

time (t) = 8 seconds

displacement (s) = s m

<u />

<u>Solving for Displacement:</u>

From the seconds equation of motion:

s = ut + 1/2 * at²

replacing the variables

s = 20(8) + 1/2 * (4)*(8)*(8)

s = 160 + 128

s = 288 m
