Satellite A revolves around Earth 5 times a day. What is the radius of its orbit, measured from Earth's center? Assume that Eart

h generates the only significant gravitation attraction on the satellite. Note: The mass of Earth is 5.98 × 1024 kg, and the constant of universal gravity (G) equals 6.674 × 10-11 N · m2/kg2.
0.69 × 107 m

Answer: 1.44. You can set centripetal force equal to gravitational force caused by the earth because the grav. force is what causes the satellite to orbit in a circle

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

3.9 m/s

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of car,m=2.1\times 10^3 kg

Initial velocity,u=0

Distance,s=5.9 m

\theta=19^{\circ}

Average friction force,f=4.0\times 10^3 N

We have to find the speed of the car at the bottom of the driveway.

Net force,F_{net}=mgsin\theta-f=2.1\times 10^3\times 9.8sin19-4.0\times 10^3

Where g=9.8 m/s^2

Acceleration,a=\frac{F_{net}}{m}=\frac{2.1\times 10^3\times 9.8sin19-4.0\times 10^3}{2.1\times 10^3}

v=\sqrt{2as}

v=\sqrt{2\times \frac{2.1\times 10^3\times 9.8sin19-4.0\times 10^3}{2.1\times 10^3}\times 5.9}

v=3.9 m/s

A square piece of tin has 12 inches on a side. An open box is formed by cutting out equal square pieces at the corners and bendi
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given a square Piece whose side is 12 inches

Now square pieces are cut from each corner to make it a open box

Suppose x is the length of square piece at each corner

then

base square has a length of 12-2x

Dimension of new box is (12-2x)\times (12-2x)\times x

Volume V=(12-2x)\times (12-2x)\times x

V=\left ( 12-2x\right )^2\cdot x

For maximum volume differentiate with respect to x we get

\Rightarrow\frac{\mathrm{d} V}{\mathrm{d} x}=2\times \left ( 12-2x\right )\times \left ( -2\right )\cdot x+\left ( 12-2x\right )^2=0

we get x=6 and 4 but at x=6 volume becomes zero therefore x=4 is valid

V=\left ( 12-2\cdot 4\right )^2\cdot 4

V=4^3

V=64\ in.^3

3. What is the gravitational force between a 70 kg physics student and her 1 kg textbook, at a distance of 1 meter? (This number
Rina8888 [55]

ANSWER

\begin{equation*} 4.67*10^{-9}\text{ }N \end{equation*}

EXPLANATION

Parameters given:

Mass of the student, M = 70 kg

Mass of the textbook, m = 1 kg

Distance, r = 1 m

To find the gravitational force acting between the student and the textbook, apply the formula for gravitational force:

F=\frac{GMm}{r^2}

where G = gravitational constant

Therefore, the gravitational force acting between the student and the textbook is:

\begin{gathered} F=\frac{6.67430*10^{-11}*70*1}{1^2} \\  \\ F=4.67*10^{-9}\text{ }N \end{gathered}

That is the answer.
