How much work is required to lift a 2 kg mass to a height of 10 meters?

1 answer:

6 0

Use the equation potential energy =m*g*h
m-mass,
g-gravitational acceleration,
h-height
Potential energy = 2*10*10
=200
$kg {m}^{2} {s}^{ - 2}$
This is the unit of the energy

A satellite orbits earth with a mean altitude of 361 km. If the orbit is circular, what are the satellite's time period and spee

Advocard [28]

Answer:

v = 7.69 x 10³ m/s = 7690 m/s

T = 5500 s = 91.67 min = 1.53 h

Explanation:

In order for the satellite to orbit the earth, the force of gravitation on satellite must be equal to the centripetal force acting on it:

$F_{gravitation}= F_{centripetal}\\\\\frac{GM_{s} M_{E}}{r^2} = \frac{M_{s} v^2}{r}\\\\\frac{GM_{E}}{r} = v^2\\\\v = \sqrt{\frac{GM_{E}}{r} } \\\\$

where,

G = Universal Gravitational Constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²

Me = Mass of Earth = 5.97 x 10²⁴ kg

r = distance between the center of Earth and Satellite = Radius of Earth + Altitude = 6.371 x 10⁶ m + 0.361 x 10⁶ m = 6.732 x 10⁶ m

v = orbital speed = ?

Therefore,

$v = \sqrt{\frac{(6.67 x 10^{-11}N.m^2/kg^2)(5.97 x 10^{24} kg)}{6.732 x 10^6 m} }\\\\$

For time period satellite completes one revolution around the earth. It means that the distance covered by satellite is equal to circumference of circle at the given altitude.

So, its orbital speed can be given as:

$v = \frac{Circumference of Circle at Given Altitude}{T}\\\\v = \frac{2\pi r}{T}\\\\$

where,

T = Time Period of Satellite = ?

Therefore,

$T = \frac{2\pi r}{v}\\\\T = \frac{(2\pi )(6.732 x 10^6 m}{7.69 x 10^3 m/s}\\\\$

In a compression wave, particles in the medium move

nikdorinn [45]

in the same direction as the wave

Explanation:

In a compression wave, the particles in the medium moves in the same direction as the wave source.

A wave is generally defined as a disturbance that transmits energy.

There are two types of waves based on the direction through which they are propagated.
Transverse waves are directed perpendicularly in the direction of propagation.
Examples are electromagnetic waves.
Longitudinal waves are parallel to their source. Examples are sound waves, p-waves.
They are made up of series of rarefaction and compression.

pychu [463]

Answer:

B) Pressure on the scale, not registered as weight.

Explanation:

This is because energy (derived from weight) becomes compiled on the tips of your toes, and therefore does not increase your weight, but simply the pressure at a smaller point
