Calculate the velocity of a 1650 kilogram satellite.

Physics
1 answer:
Anna35 [415]3 years ago
8 0

There's not enough information given to do that calculation.

-- The question doesn't specify whether the satellite is on the
shelf in the Vehicle Assembly Building before being installed
onto the booster, or inside the nose-cone as the rocket is slowly
being rolled to the launch-pad, or on its ascent to orbit after launch,
or in orbit.  Its velocity in each of these situations is different.

-- The question reveals only the satellite's mass, but the answer
doesn't depend on that number.  The satellite's velocity depends
on the speed of the truck or the rocket carrying it, or the size of
the orbit it's in.  The question doesn't give any of these.

==> In particular, the size of a satellite's orbit, or its speed in that
orbit, DO NOT depend on its mass.

For example: 
There are hundreds of TV satellites ... the ones that match the
Earth's rotation and appear motionless in the sky.  They have
many different sizes, shapes, and masses, but they're all in the
same geostationary orbit, 22,000 miles above the equator, and
they all have the same average orbital velocity, zero displacement
per (23 hours 56 minutes 4 seconds).

What voltage battery would you need to send 2.5A of current through a light bulb of resistance 3.6 ohm
nadezda [96]
<h3><u>Given</u> :</h3>

Current flow light bulb = 2.5\sf{A}

Resistance of light bulb = 3.6Ω

<h3><u>To Find </u>:</h3>

We have to find voltage of battery.

<h3><u>Solution</u> :</h3>

➠ As per ohm's law, current flow through a conductor is directly proportional to the applied potential difference.

➝ V ∝ I

➝ <u>V = I × R</u>

Where, R is the resistance of conductor.

⇒ V = I × R

⇒ V = 2.5 × 3.6

⇒ <u>V = 9 volt</u>
