A 1 036-kg satellite orbits the Earth at a constant altitude of 98-km. (a) How much energy must be added to the system to move t
Veronika [31]

Answer:

a) The Energy added should be 484.438 MJ

b) The  Kinetic Energy change is -484.438 MJ

c) The Potential Energy change is 968.907 MJ

Explanation:

Let 'm' be the mass of the satellite , 'M'(6×10^{24} be the mass of earth , 'R'(6400 Km) be the radius of the earth , 'h' be the altitude of the satellite and 'G' (6.67×10^{-11} N/m) be the universal constant of gravitation.

We know that the orbital velocity(v) for a satellite -

v=\sqrt{\frac{Gmm}{R+h} }         [(R+h) is the distance of the satellite   from the center of the earth ]

Total Energy(E) = Kinetic Energy(KE) + Potential Energy(PE)

For initial conditions ,

h = h_{i} = 98 km = 98000 m

∴Initial Energy (E_{i})  = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} + \frac{-GMm}{(R+h_{i} )}

Substituting v=\sqrt{\frac{GMm}{R+h_{i} } } in the above equation and simplifying we get,

E_{i} = \frac{-GMm}{2(R+h_{i}) }

Similarly for final condition,

h=h_{f} = 198km = 198000 m

∴Final Energy(E_{f}) = \frac{-GMm}{2(R+h_{f}) }

a) The energy that should be added should be the difference in the energy of initial and final states -

∴ ΔE = E_{f} - E_{i}

        = \frac{GMm}{2}(\frac{1}{R+h_{i} } - \frac{1}{R+h_{f} })

Substituting ,

M = 6 × 10^{24} kg

m = 1036 kg

G = 6.67 × 10^{-11}

R = 6400000 m

h_{i} = 98000 m

h_{f} = 198000 m

We get ,

ΔE = 484.438 MJ

b) Change in Kinetic Energy (ΔKE) = \frac{1}{2}m[v_{f} ^{2} - v_{i} ^{2}]

                                                          = \frac{GMm}{2}[\frac{1} {R+h_{f} } - \frac{1} {R+h_{i} }]

                                                          = -ΔE                                                            

                                                          = - 484.438 MJ

c)  Change in Potential Energy (ΔPE) = GMm[\frac{1}{R+h_{i} } - \frac{1}{R+h_{f} }]

                                                             = 2ΔE

                                                             = 968.907 MJ

Which form of energy does a plant store when light is transformed during photosynthesis into sugars?
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

C. Chemical energy

Explanation:

The different types of energy listed in this question are:

A) Electrical energy: it is the energy related to the flow of electrical charges (current)

B) Nuclear energy: it is the energy contained in the nuclei of the atoms, and released during nuclear reactions

C) Chemical energy: it is the energy contained in the bonds between molecules, and it is released during chemical reactions

D) Thermal energy: it is the energy associated with the motion of molecules

Photosynthesis is the process that plants use to transform the light energy (coming from the Sun) into chemical energy. In fact, in this process, plants absorb CO2 (from the atmosphere) and solar energy (from the light), and they convert them into sugars (glucose) and oxygen. Therefore, the initial energy coming as solar energy is converted into energy of the bonds of the molecules of glucose (so, chemical energy).

So, the correct option is C).
