Answer:
The structure of Germanium crystals will be destroyed at higher temperature. However, Silicon crystals are not easily damaged by excess heat. Peak Inverse Voltage ratings of Silicon diodes are greater than Germanium diodes. Si is less expensive due to the greater abundance of element.
The horizontal and vertical components of a projectile's velocity are independent of each other.
Answer: Option C
<u>Explanation:</u>
The path of a projectile is determined by two components of motion. They are termed as horizontal and the vertical components. Since both components velocity are perpendicular to each other, so it can stated that they are independent of each other.
Even it can seen that when the horizontal components of velocity is constant, then there will be change in the vertical components of velocity leading to free fall projectile path.
And in the absence of gravity, there will be change in the horizontal components of velocity with zero vertical component of velocity. Thus, the horizontal and the vertical components of a projectile’s velocity are seemed to be independent of each other.
-- We're going to be talking about the satellite's speed.
"Velocity" would include its direction at any instant, and
in a circular orbit, that's constantly changing.
-- The mass of the satellite makes no difference.
Since the planet's radius is 3.95 x 10⁵m and the satellite is
orbiting 4.2 x 10⁶m above the surface, the radius of the
orbital path itself is
(3.95 x 10⁵m) + (4.2 x 10⁶m)
= (3.95 x 10⁵m) + (42 x 10⁵m)
= 45.95 x 10⁵ m
The circumference of the orbit is (2 π R) = 91.9 π x 10⁵ m.
The bird completes a revolution every 2.0 hours,
so its speed in orbit is
(91.9 π x 10⁵ m) / 2 hr
= 45.95 π x 10⁵ m/hr x (1 hr / 3,600 sec)
= 0.04 x 10⁵ m/sec
= 4 x 10³ m/sec
(4 kilometers per second)
