Answer:

\rho = 12580.7 kg/m^3

Explanation:

As we know that the satellite revolves around the planet then the centripetal force for the satellite is due to gravitational attraction force of the planet

So here we will have

F = \frac{GMm}{(r + h)^2}

here we have

F =\frac {mv^2}{(r+ h)}

\frac{mv^2}{r + h} = \frac{GMm}{(r + h)^2}

here we have

v = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{(r + h)}}

now we can find time period as

T = \frac{2\pi (r + h)}{v}

T = \frac{2\pi (2.05 \times 10^6 + 310 \times 10^3)}{\sqrt{\frac{GM}{(r + h)}}}

1.15 \times 3600 = \frac{2\pi (2.05 \times 10^6 + 310 \times 10^3)}{\sqrt{\frac{(6.67 \times 10^{-11})(M)}{(2.05 \times 10^6 + 310 \times 10^3)}}}

M = 4.54 \times 10^{23} kg

Now the density is given as

\rho = \frac{M}{\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3}

\rho = \frac{4.54 \times 10^{23}}{\frac{4}[3}\pi(2.05 \times 10^6)^3}

\rho = 12580.7 kg/m^3

Answer:

thermoset

Explanation:

A thermoset material is a polymer that is irreversibly hardened by curing. Curing is induced by heat and cannot be undone because the polymers cross link during the process, creating permanent chemical bonds.
