On the earth surface g = GM/R^2
 And at the hieight h
 g" = GM/ [R+h] ^2
 g" = R^2/ [ R+h]^2 * g
 g" = {R/ [ R+h] }^2 * g
 g" = {6378/ 7083}^2 * 9.81 = 7.95 m/s^2
 --------------------------------------
T^2 = 4π^2 (R+h) /g"
T^2 = 4π^2 *7083 /7.95 
T = 187.54s = 0.052 hour.
 ========================
 Part B
 v = 2*π *[R+h] / T
 v = 2*π *[7.083] / 187.54s
 v = 0.24 km /s

A 1.50 3 103 - kg car starts from rest and accelerates uniformly to 18.0 m/s in 12.0 s. Assume that air resistance remains const
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

let force exerted by engine be F.Net force =( F-400)N, applying newton law

     F-400 = 1.5 x 10³x18 =27000 ,

F = 27400 N.

velocity after 12 s  = 0 + 18 x 12 = 216 m/s

Average velocity = (0 + 216 )/2 = 108 m/s

Average power = force x average velocity = 27400 x 108 = 29.6 10⁵ W .⁶

b) At 12 s , velocity = 216 m/s

Instantaneous power = velocity x force = 216 x 27400 = 59.2 x 10⁶ W.

Fynjy0 [20]
A stereotaxic atlas is used to determine where an implanted electrode is to be placed in a brain in 3-dimensions. A stereotaxic atlas is used for doing a stereotactic surgery in order to cure the disorder occurred in the brain. This tool increase the accuracy, reliability, and the measurement of the brain because it gives the accurate brain map<span>.</span>

A Scooter travelling at 10m/s speed up to 20m/s in 4 sec.find the acceleration of scooter​
stira [4]

Answer:

2.5 m/s²

Explanation:

Given,

Initial speed ( u ) = 10 m/s

Final speed ( v ) = 20 m/s

Time ( t ) = 4 seconds

To find : Acceleration ( a ) = ?

Formula : -

a = ( v - u ) / t

a = ( 20 - 10 ) / 4

= 10 / 4

= 5 / 2

a = 2.5 m/s²

Therefore,

The acceleration of the scooter is 2.5 m/s²

Verizon [17]

Answer:

The answer is "1.144 \times 10^{-4} \ m".

Explanation:

w=\frac{2.44 \lambda L}{D}\\\\D=\frac{2.44 \lambda L}{w}\\\\

   =\frac{2.44 \times 633 \times 10^{-9}\times 4 }{0.054}\\\\=\frac{6178.08\times 10^{-9}}{0.054}\\\\=1.144 \times 10^{-4} \ m
