An artificial satellite is in a circular orbit around a planet of radius r= 2.05 x103 km at a distance d 310.0 km from the plane

t's surface. The period of revolution of the satellite around the planet is T 1.15 hours. What is the average density of the planet?

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

How does paving parking lots and roads with concrete or asphalt affect surface water and groundwater?
lidiya [134]
Parking lots with roads and concrete reduce infiltration. Infiltration is the process by which water penetrates the soil. Reducing the amount of water that enters the soil can eventually impact groundwater levels in some areas by decreasing it over time. Paved roads lead to increased surface runoff which increases the possibility of flooding in periods of heavy rainfall. This is known as urban flooding.

lbvjy [14]

Explanation:

It is given that, Onur drops a basketball from a height of 10 m on Mars, where the acceleration due to gravity has a magnitude of 3.7 m/s².

The second equation of kinematics gives the relationship between the height reached and time taken by it.

Here, the ball is droped under the action of gravity. The value of acceleration due to gravity on Mars is positive.

We want to know how many seconds the basketball is in the air before it hits the ground. So, the formula is :

\Delta x=v_ot+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

t is time taken by the ball to hit the ground

v_o is initial speed of the ball

So, the correct option is (A).

A 320 g air track cart traveling at 1.25 m/s collides with a stationary 270 g cart. What is the speed of the 270 g cart after th
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

The speed of the 270g cart after the collision is 0.68m/s

Explanation:

Mass of air track cart (m1) = 320g

Initial velocity (u1) = 1.25m/s

Mass of stationary cart (m2) = 270g

Velocity after collision (V) = m1u1/(m1+m2) = 320×1.25/(320+270) = 400/590 = 0.68m/s
