How is a satellite affected by the earths gravity ?

2 answers:

7 0

Gravity is a force that attracts all objects towards each other. People are attracted towards the Earth and the Earth towards people, the Moon and the Earth are attracted towards each other, and the Sun and the Earth are attracted towards each other. All of these attractions are caused by gravity. Gravitational attraction is greater for more massive objects. Gravity decreases as the distance between the objects increases.

Earth's gravity is what keeps the satalite in orbit

Why is there no overall electrical charge on an aluminium atom?

Alex787 [66]

The atoms always have an equal amount of protons and neutrons so lets say if one had 10 positive then it would have 10 negatives making it neutral.
10-10=0

Suppose that you place exactly 100 bacteria into a flask containing nutrients for the bacteria and that you find the following d

tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

The order of the production of bacteria is 1.

12,787 bacteria will be present after 112 min.

$0.04331 min^{-1}$ is the rate constant for the process.

Explanation:

Rate of formation of bacteria when there 100 bacteria: R

Rate of formation of bacteria when there 200 bacteria: R' =2R

Rate of formation of bacteria is directly proportional to the number of bacteria:

$\frac{R}{R'}=\frac{k[200]^x}{k[400]^x}$

$\frac{R}{2R}=(\frac{200}{400})^x$

x = 1

The order of the production of bacteria is 1.

The half life of the process = $t_{1/2}=16 minutes$

Rate constant of the process = k

For first order process k is only dependent on half life:

$k=\frac{0.693}{t_{1/2}}$

$k=\frac{0.693}{16 min}=0.04331 min^{-1}$

For the first order process the increment numbers is given ;

$N=N_o\times e^{kt}$

Where:

$N_o$ = Initial population

N = Population after time t.

We have ;

$N_o=100$

t = 112 minutes

$N=100\times e^{0.04331 min^{-1}\times 112 min}$

$N = 12,786.82\approx 12,787$

12,787 bacteria will be present after 112 min.

$0.04331 min^{-1}$ is the rate constant for the process.

Complete these structures by adding electron dots as needed.

LiRa [457]

This is hard to show but here is how you would determine these. NOTE each dot is an electron.
Question 1) 
F-H 
1) determine the valance electrons for each. F has 7 and H has 1 
2) one electron from both F and H form the bond "-" which means that you still have 6 electrons to place around F and none to place around H. Place the 6 in sets of 2 around the F 
.. 
F-H 
¨ 
Question 2) 

2) H-O-H 
H has 1 valence electron minus 1 used in the bond to O = 0 electrons to place 
H has 1 valence electron minus 1 used in the bond to O = 0 electrons to place 
O has 6 valence electrons minus 2 used in the bonds to the H's = 4 electrons to place 

H-O-H: place two dots above and below the oxygen 

Question 3) 
3) O=N----H : NOTE: a double bond requires O and N to share two of their electrons each 
O has 6 valence electrons minus 2 used in the bonds to N = 4 electrons to place 
N has 5 valence electrons minus 3 used in the bonds to O and H = 2 electrons to place 
H has 1 valence electron minus 1 used in the bond to N = 0 electrons to place 
place the 2 dots on top and bottom of oxygen. 
place 2 above the N

Why do we observe national day

WITCHER [35]

A national day is a day on which celebrations mark the nationhood of a nation or state. It may be the date of independence, of becoming a republic, or a significant date for a patron saint or a ruler (such as a birthday, accession, or removal). The national day is often a public holiday.
