Six artificial satellites circle a space station at constant speed. The mass m of each satellite, distance L from the space stat

nikklg [1K]

Answers:

a) $T_{2}>T_{5}>T_{1}>T_{3}=T_{6}>T_{4}$

b) $a_{4}>a_{6}>a_{1}>a_{3}>a_{5}>a_{2}$

Explanation:

a) Since we are told the satellites circle the space station at constant speed, we can assume they follow a uniform circular motion and their tangential speeds $V$ are given by:

$V=\omega L=\frac{2\pi}{T} L$ (1)

Where:

$\omega$ is the angular frequency

$L$ is the radius of the orbit of each satellite

$T$ is the period of the orbit of each satellite

Isolating $T$ :

$T=\frac{2 \pi L}{V}$ (2)

Applying this equation to each satellite:

$T_{1}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{1}}=261.79 s$ (3)

$T_{2}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{2}}=1570.79 s$ (4)

$T_{3}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{3}}=196.349 s$ (5)

$T_{4}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{4}}=98.174 s$ (6)

$T_{5}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{5}}=785.398 s$ (7)

$T_{6}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{6}}=196.349 s$ (8)

Ordering this periods from largest to smallest:

$T_{2}>T_{5}>T_{1}>T_{3}=T_{6}>T_{4}$

b) Acceleration $a$ is defined as the variation of velocity in time:

$a=\frac{V}{T}$ (9)

Applying this equation to each satellite:

$a_{1}=\frac{V_{1}}{T_{1}}=0.458 m/s^{2}$ (10)

$a_{2}=\frac{V_{2}}{T_{2}}=0.0254 m/s^{2}$ (11)

$a_{3}=\frac{V_{3}}{T_{3}}=0.4074 m/s^{2}$ (12)

$a_{4}=\frac{V_{4}}{T_{4}}=1.629 m/s^{2}$ (13)

$a_{5}=\frac{V_{5}}{T_{5}}=0.101 m/s^{2}$ (14)

$a_{6}=\frac{V_{6}}{T_{6}}=0.814 m/s^{2}$ (15)

Ordering this acceerations from largest to smallest:

$a_{4}>a_{6}>a_{1}>a_{3}>a_{5}>a_{2}$

Explain how thermal energy (temperature) affects chemical changes.

Monica [59]

If bonds are broken, the energy is released, and if bonds are formed, energy is absorbed. During conversions from chemical energy to thermal energy, the energy stored in the chemical bonds are released and this energy causes surrounding molecules to move faster thus increasing the thermal energy of a substance.
