T is the time for a whole round.
centripetal acceleration = V^2/R,
20 = 40^2 / R, find R = 40^2/20 = 40*40/20 = 80 m, right?
Now, one round is L = 2*pi*R = 2*pi*80 = 160*pi
And T = L/v (distance/speed) = 160*pi/40 = 4*pi seconds, or ~ 12.57 s
Answer:
Low satellite has high orbital velocity
Explanation:
let v be the orbital speed of the satellite orbiting at a height h is given by

where, M be the mass of planet, r be the radius of planet and h be the height of planet from the surface of planet.
here we observe that more be the height lesser be the orbital velocity.
So, a satellite which is at low height has high orbital velocity.
ANOTHER RUNNING DOG
Explanation:
In the given question it is to find a suitable reference point to describe the motion of dog. Here I could suggest that it is better to compare the dog with another running dog to create the relative speed difference to get a reliable motion variation.
Because the motion of dog is in the linear with respect to the another dog and to the acceleration produced by the dog in the required interval is easy to calculate with respect to another dog which is already in motion.
Hence, I suggest that Motion of dog can be analysed better by analyse the motion variation of dog with another dog running.
